I like this a lot. The art, the music, it just worked perfectly.
This game was really charming! Something I find lacking in most games made in jams are UI and assisting players better, but this game was able to achieve both! I love the bounciness but also the responsiveness of every button! It was also nice seeing the arrows scale up and down upon pressing!
Not sure if this is a unity or WebGL thing, but the bottom UI was like 1 pixel of space below so I was able to see some of the ghosts walks away under it!
It was a bit overwhelming, but the concept was really nice and fun! I also like how you made sure I wouldn't get overwhelmed at the beginning because I was still trying to understand the controls, and you made sure no one would hop in until I finish the first order!
I like the "vague" aspect of the orders. The signposting was well done! Most cooking games just show you the picture of their order, but I feel like the signposting makes this game more unique and of course, fun!
I saw below that you were inspired by spirited away, and I thought so too! It definitely gave a bit of that vibe in the restaurants, but the overall art direction was still unique enough to be considered your own style! I love it!
I'm really happy about this game, amazing work!!
Really well made game. This has a nice ambiance to it. I got overwhelmed fast. The controls are nice and the UI is amazing. You did an outstanding job on this game. It is a joy to play.
Really nice game with good visuals. I saw your game on stream, and now I played it for myself. Really cool mechanic for cooking. It felt that some of the hints didn't really help at all, but that added to the difficulty, so I think that is fine :)
This is such an awesome game. I love it! Clever mechanics, good writing, beautiful visuals. I saw it in the stream a few days ago and now I finally had a chance to play it by myself. Great work.
Is this inspired by the work of Hayao Miyazaki, especially by Spirited Away? It has some sort of similar vibes.
Thanks so much! Yes you are spot on. This was inspired by the early scene in Spirited Away where the spirits are running restaurants ^-^ I picked this blue palette because I was hoping it would help give this game its own identity so it wouldn't come across as straight up fan art.
The game definitely has its own identity. I've just seen Spirited Away too many times. It's a lovely movie and I will eventually watch it again... and again :)
This is like overcooked buy better :P I love de idea and the art It is simple and sweet, AWESOME! It was hard to know what should be the next prepared dish, did I missed something?
Thanks for playing! The customers give you hints about the ingredients they are missing but they can be pretty vague. We were hoping maybe pacing the buying of recipes might help players identify what hint was associated with what food, but I know that was still really tricky for most players. Also, with the 3 counter spots, if you aren't sure, you still get 3 guesses because you can leave food on each spot. That part wasn't super clear to players either. We definitely have more to learn when it comes to introducing mechanics during gameplay, but I'm so glad you were still able to enjoy it! Thanks again for your feedback! ^-^
This is like overcooked buy better :P I love de idea and the art It is simple and sweet, AWESOME!
The art is awesome and the concept really is really, taking you in limbo as chef :P Well done.
Super cute game! I Love it! ❤️
always wanted to play a game where use movement keys to do combos! it brings back some memories!
Very compelling and strange game. At first I was a bit confused because I thought we were supposed to guess the recipes but then I understood and wanted to keep the souls happy. Top marks
Wow this really impressed me. Beautiful art, music and sfx. Loved the concept and story which fit the theme perfectly. My only issues were that buying recipes required changing hand from keyboard over to mouse, and it also felt like guess work to figure out what recipes the customers wanted, so I'd just make random things to see what they would take. Apart from that though, fantastic job!
The page with the game is well designed!
Great pixel art and animation, I really liked the color palette in the game :)
The cooking mechanics are great!
This is by far the best game I've played at this game jam, I've recommended it to my friends :D
Thank you so much for the kind words! I really liked your game as well. It was very nicely polished! ^-^
Beautiful and fun game. Though I do think starting with more recipes would be more engaging from the start
Thanks for your feedback! We did originally have the game start with all the recipes, but were worried it would overwhelm the player and they would be confused by the customer hints. But I agree that it loses something when all you make at first is eggs, and at the end, you don't have many chances to make the more complicated recipes. Some of these balance kind of choices towards the end of the process get really tricky x) it becomes hard to know what's better. But we're so glad you played and enjoyed our game!
The overall aesthetic feel of this was perfectly crafted. Excellent art, music, style, concept, and gameplay! Very original too! Great job
so relaxing. visually pleasing, I cant imagine how much effort you put into this game. well done
Thank you! And oh- you know, it was nothing... Just like, 10 - 12 hours... per day... for every day of the jam XD
Interesting story. Was fun making food to the customers, nice graphics and sound.
I really love the big style on your pixel art, and very creative with the concept! Very fun, I had some satisfied customers :) . Please rate our game if you would like :) https://itch.io/jam/gamedevtv-jam-2022/rate/1554224#post-5960926
This game is so finished. I cant imagine all the hours you must've spent working on the art. I remember seeing some previews on the discord server, and was eager to be able to try it. Creative concept and nice twist at the end as well. This game really captures what gamejams are all about.
Thanks so much! We had a blast building it :D we learned a lot, and there was a really strong sense of community in this jam. I look forward to many more :)
Loved the graphic feel of it and it played very smooth. Only improvement I would have liked to see is a hotkey to buy the next recipe, it's now the only thing you need the mouse for.
Overall very nice game!
