Quite fun, nice atmosphere and art. The gameplay is fun too, the only feedback I have is that a tutorial would help a bit, specifically for things that aren't that clear, like how to add more water (I did end up figuring it out tho ^ ^)
Overall, really nice, well done :)
Nice game, liked the simple graphics and I liked the kitchen.
The game becomes always more challenging and that's good, still the game is realaxing and the general atmosphere is calm.
At the beginning I was really bad but then I got the hand out of it ahhaha
Good job!
enjoyed playing this one! the art is is nice and the controls are responsive, the gameplay is relaxing and has a good learning curve, overall great game! keep it up!
Cute game!
I don't really like Eric thoughCute game, nice and relaxing to play. I like the art style. The music matched the mood, but got repetitive very fast.
Love the vibe of the game. Pretty chill and straightforward game.
Sometime the order I made was too late that next person that come in take that order and said it was wrong haha.
Thanks for checking out the game! And thanks for catching the bug! We didn't have much time for playtesting so really appreciate the feedback. That particular bug should be fixed now!
cute and unique concept, and the music fit the vibe perfectly. it's hard being a (tea) barista! =D
Very nice physics. Despite this is a tea brewing game, but with physics in it I managed to break the game by making the cup stuck at the serving area and make the framerates drop violently by adding 12 tea bags to a cup.
The graphic is good and everything else is fine. Good job.
Interesting game design
This game proves to me that I shouldn't be in a customer facing role, I instantly forgot what people wanted and had to keep going back and forth between the screens! I liked this interpretation of the theme and didn't find it difficult to work out what to do; all the switches and whatnot were pretty obvious and intuitive. The music got a little repetitive, but other than that the aesthetics and sound effects were spot on. While you could introduce points and make it more frantic, I think I prefer this more relaxed experience, and could definitely see it worked into some sort of narrative experience like Papers Please, but perhaps with a more light-hearted story!
Like the vibe i'm getting from this game. Great job.
Hey there!
This was a nice game overall.
The art style looks amazing. The music was spot on for this kind of game too. There were a couple of bugs here and there, like for example one of my cups flew out of the screen and the water got depleted so one customer was angry I didn’t put water in her tea and now she is gonna go to Starpucks :P But nothing major so it is fine! If it was me I would try to implement a point system or something to make the game have rewards and consequences for success and failure, so here are my two cents about it.
It was a pleasant and relaxing experience, so good job on that!
Keep up the good work!
Thanks for checking out the game and the thoughtful feedback! I definitely agree that the game lacks some sort of goal or progression system.
Regarding the water being depleted, you’re supposed to use the lever on the top of the faucet to refill the kettle! But unfortunately we didn’t make it very obvious haha
That makes sense! I thought I might be missing something :)
I really like the aesthetics of this! I had fun making tea and really felt like I was in control of the tea shop. However, after serving the first customer, nobody else showed up? Or I couldn't figure out how to skip to the next customer unfortunately. The music is nice, but way too repetitive. I liked the variation (honey, sugar, etc.)! I would agree with the others that I found it difficult to actually use the items. For example, you can't use the kettle if the cup is at the arrow area, and using it was quite difficult, too. But a nice entry that I think you could polish a bit more to make it easier to be played! :)
Thanks for the feedback!
For the bug where the next customer doesn’t show up, I’m having some trouble reproducing it. Do you remember if it happened after the first customer already left? And did the customer already gave feedback after pressing the bell?
We agree with all of the rest of the feedback, really appreciate the detailed response!
Yes, they said it was perfect. But nothing happened after that
A bit difficult to figure out exactly what to do, but a neat concept and nice graphics + sound.
I loved the art and music, and the idea of a physics based tea-serving game, but I failed to actually serve any tea. Great aesthetic though! It feels like it ought to be a good game and I'm just missing something obvious.
Thanks for checking it out!
To serve the tea, you need to put your cup of tea on the left platform and press the bell!
We haven't had the chance to build a tutorial so it's not very obvious what you're supposed to do. I added a couple of indicators which should hopefully make it a bit more obvious.
I was having trouble getting the teabag into the teapot. Maybe I'm just clueless. I guess that's not how contemporary tea is made.
