This is a well-done little horror story, and it was fun to play through. Pretty impressive graphically too given the time frame. Great work!
That was spooky! I really like the story, and the audio was excellent. Crazy amount of atmosphere for a jam game, well done.
awesome game really like the aesthetic :)
A brilliant little game.
The atmosphere is on point.
The chop sound will haunt me in my dreams. O.oGreat praise that you managed to concentrate an idea into a few minutes of gameplay. There is not an unnecessary gram of fat in this game.
The sound effects were really good, i wish there was a way to return to the menu after credits, but that is just a small issue. This is a great game
So awesome and super creepy! I loved the sound effects like the squeaky door sounds for the voices and the way the sounds showed the ending during the credits. It was also really creepy to me how the mother would always turn her head just slightly away from you. Great job!
Great mood, very polished and visually attractive
Yep. I had a nightmare just like this once
i love it
Great atmosphere and well polished game!
For some reason I was so fixated on how the mother is creepy, that I somehow only after the end realized that I just served the dad bleach.
Also found bug, if I go click on all the ingredients(ignoring the spice), I can spam click on the pot and finish the game.
Thanks for the bug note!
Like your narrative game. Mood is excellent. Visually impressive for only 48h. Nice to play. Great work.
Creeeeeeeeeeeepy! Definitely had me nervous playing it the whole time. A little short, but very enjoyable. Looked and sounded great. Nice job!
Forgot to mention this earlier, but the game glitched out on me pretty badly the first two times I played it. The first time I couldn't pick up the herbs in the beginning, so was stuck, and the second time all the events popped up right at the beginning and then the game went to the ending automatically. Wasn't until the third time I started the game up that it played correctly.
Thanks for the bug report. I haven't heard of that particular issue, glad I know what to look for.
Very nice! Obviously a bit short but impressive for the time given. Really thought there was gonna be some jumpscare somewhere.
I've always preferred a slow buildup of dread. Thanks for playing!
The best game mood and atmosphere! It would play even better with some creepy voice acting. The ending is great. Liked the mother's transformation and blood strains around the room. Amazing work!
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
I dont have anything to complain :)! The audio and the mood was really good of your game! Keep it up!
cool game, very good audio
