This is great! I always wonder how to make a good Overcooked-style game.

Controls and tutorials may could be further improved, but overall it's already very good.

Developer(+1)

Thanks, i really wonder whats the best type  of movement for this type of isometric games...

Submitted

Aside from the janky movements (up down left right conflicts with the diagonal/isometric nature of the game), it was decent. The tutorials were very helpful, and the unstable shaking animations were subtle but definitely noticeable. I had one problem a time when every time I stabalized it a bit, I had the same routine to prepare over and over (snake, tree root, rat) which is lengthy. Other times it randomized.


Fairly straightforward gameplay though, nice game!


(Also I love the 3D visuals and it really made me jealous of the fact that my engine only supports 2D xd)

Well thought out game with good simple mechanics and pleasing art and audio to top it all. Great game!

Developer

Thank Shiro! The audio was very fun to make , also the art

Submitted

Nice game, art and sound/music. I see it is heavily inspired by overcooked. I love that game so this was nice to play. The only thing I would change is in the tutorial put an arrow to your ingredients you have to pick up as I first did not know what I was supposed to do.

Developer(+1)

Thats it! an arrow to the ingredient surely will explain which on is next, really had no  idea how i should do it , and now you mention it sounds like a great way

thank you so much

took me a few tries to get the hang of it. could break 60 when i started anticipating which ingredients needed to be prepped. looks great, nice job!

Developer

what was biggest highscore?

Submitted

Haha, I loved racing around the room with little time to spare. Nice artwork and lighting.

Developer

Thank you!


the lightning was very tricky since URP in unity allows max of 8 point lights so I had to work my way to a nice illumination with the things I had.

A great concept with lovely art and a great tutorial that makes it very easy to understand. The only problem here is that maneuvering is a bit difficult with the cauldron right in the center; I think this game could have been improved by moving the cauldron to the corner. Other than that, perfect. 

Developer(+1)

That is a great idea ! it definitely could be moved to the corner, some friend sugested this could be a nice multiplayer couch game to play with joysticks!

thanks for the feedback
