The music was really fun! I liked it!  Please don't take it the wrong way, but children would absolutely love this game! And it will help them out too! Great work!

This game is really good!  It was nice and convenient to decide what shapes to cook, with just a bit of math.  It took me a couple minutes to figure out what to do though.  This one is probably one of my favorites, well done!

Um AcTuAlLy, CiRcLeS HaVe InFiNiTe SiDeS NoT OnE. 0 OuT Of TeN. WoRsT GaMe EvEr. jokes aside this was an absolutely spectacular game. first the gameplay was made up of simple parts of math and adding and subtracting sides all came together to create fun and engaging puzzles. The music and sfx were really nice and added to the game nicely. the art was super well done and I enjoyed that the number related to the number of sides the shape had. the game was amazingly polished with so many little details and added to the overall experience. I did run into a bug where the equation just disappeared and I couldn't progress

still absolutely incredible. keep up the good work!

I can't express enough how awesome this game is!

First of all, I think this is one of the best games in this game jam considering the submissions I have played so far, and I have played around 40 of them I think. I haven't seen a mathematics game that involves cooking before, and I think it is genius!

The game may have impressed me a lot since I am both interested in the education of children and mathematics, and I study applied and computational mathematics, but I must say that there is some valuable stuff in this game.

I liked how you focused on the "functions" and "equations" considering the elementary topics of mathematics. Even I, a 22-year-old dude, enjoyed preparing ingredients and cooking meals with correct equations! The visuals were great, and the game was polished enough for a solid experience.

Excellent game, very well executed, this game is awesome!

Wow, your comment really makes my day. Like seriously. Thank you so much. 

And I'm glad you like the educational aspect of it too! We didn't really plan to make an educational game for the jam; it just kinda evolved into one over our planning process. 

Thank you again for the kind words!

That is a very clever idea for a game!!

I got pretty confused when it came to the texture,

Other than that its *well done*!

eyyyyyyyyy

Developer

That's understandable about the texture. We weren't sure about whether we should add it, but it didn't feel interesting enough with just the numbers and colors. We'll have to take another at texture after the rating period. 

Anyways, thank you for playing and the punny comment!

pretty good

Very cool Game!

This is the cleverest game I've seen so far! This definitely has frantic Overcooked vibes, and I love it! There's a lot of complexity, but you do a great job of introducing mechanics slowly. It gets really hard, but I'll be coming back to this entry for sure! Excellent job!

Developer

Thank you, we really appreciate it! We were a bit worried about the complexity since our last game jam submission was overrun with comments about it being too hard. Glad to hear we made at least a bit of progress on that front.

Nice game. But pls make the cooker, freezer, etc faster. It takes too long.

Developer

We made the cooker and freezer take longer than the others to encourage multi-tasking on the levels with multiple submission tables with the idea that players could spend their time waiting for those while working on the other meal. We definitely could have sped those timers up on earlier levels though. Thanks for playing, and thanks for the feedback!

Submitted

great!

Submitted

Very clever game no doubt inspired by Overcooked but with numbers and math! Lots of good concepts that built nicely across the levels. Well made!

Developer

Oh yes, we definitely took quite a bit of inspiration from Overcooked. Duckblade threw out the idea of "pick a side" meaning side dishes, and from there we just kinda ran with the whole "kitchen" idea. Thank you for the kind words!

An incredibly well designed game, with some good graphics on top. Theres so many different levels each with different features that I can't believe this was made in 72 hours! Well done, this game is going to do well

Developer

Thank you for the kind comment! We were lucky with how we implemented the appliances in that it was easy to change their functions and add quite a few in a short amount of time. Still took nearly a full day for the level design!
