Theme interpretation
The player is left a hole in the wall restaurant by his dying uncle and must beat all the odds to make it successful. I interpreted this as an example of "moonshot thinking."

Really cool and innovative concept! It would be great to have some music and sound.
I enjoyed the gameplay! Well done!
It's decently put-together and everything has an okay feel to it, but I wasn't hooked enough from the start to go very far with it. I played a few days in and bought a few ingredients, actions, and cooking methods but I didn't unlock any recipes and my hands were already getting sore!
Wow there's a lot of depth here. I didn't make it very far but looking through the recipes I'm surprised by how much depth there is to the mechanic! Good job putting all of that together for a jam game.
I think there's a lot of room for improvement. Here's some things that would make the game a lot nicer:
Hope you keep working on the game, there's a lot of potential here!
I appreciate the thoughtful and thorough feedback. I will definitely be adding some of these things in the coming month or two.
Nice job!
It was cool. I'll look forward to the update :)
I love these kind of management games, Icould spend hours on a game like this ^^
However, there are a few improvements you could make I think.
I would have appreciate to know what recipes I could unlock to know which ingrdients, actions and cooking methods to buy. I just bought them randomly hoping for a new recipe to be unlocked. That's very frustrating!
I also think you could improve the gameplay. I played for 4 days, and I still had just the burger and fries unlocked. And I just clicked on the ingredients, actions and cooking methods 10 times, no matter the order I was clicking on it, to make the dishes. My finger hurts now :D Maybe adding an order of click in it could be more challenging.
But I did enjoyed the time I spent on it. Good job :)
Thanks for trying it out and for the thoughtful critique. I agree 100%. I plan to update it with these and some other changes sometime after the judging period. The prices are also wack, I've come to realize.
