This was interesting! Loved the artwork and the perfectly cooked pancakes sheened with glory! I'm not sure if I figured out how to actually get pancakes to people as I managed to get them covered in syrup and then go down to a plate, but there was no feedback on if it was successful or failed. I also seemed to run into a glitch with an extra frying pan floating in the air blocking some of my throws for an extra layer of challenge- I could see random obstacles actually working for gameplay tho. Cool entry overall, would launch pancakes into orbit again!

I couldn't do anything properly, and yet enjoyed just waving the hands and throwing pancakes everywhere. You did such a good job with the audio-visual aspect as well.

Had way too much fun with this just flinging pancakes around. Sweet vaporwave feel. Really nice job!

I had a great time playing this, launched a pancake into outer space

This game was a lot of chaotic fun, and I liked the concept a lot! The art was engaging too. I don't think I had a complete grasp of the controls, and I'm not sure if the pancakes were supposed to stay on the plates once they landed. Regardless, I still had fun flipping pancakes around and trying to get them to the customers. I'd love to play a more polished version with clearer goals after the jam! Good job.

Great game, loved it! I could barely handle one pan, but I enjoyed that you present the player with three to tempt them to try to parallelize and end up burning everything. 

My only criticism is that picking up and releasing the pans felt a bit clunky to me. I would add a more generous window for picking (or even better, hotkeys for grabbing each pan), and something like RMB for dropping.

I like the pixel art a lot! The dual screen control is interesting!

That's a sweet entry 😉

Wacky and weird, it touches all the right cords for a neat arcade! It could be a modern Tapper kind of fun and even better with the right fixes and polish.

I crave for any sort of live feedback (and as a sucker for GMTK videos, I can't not suffer 😂). If the choice is to remove all "arcade" kind of feedback - like flashing points, live score and so on - (which is awesome), the art has the job to give a feedback:

  • how full are the customers?
    • e.g. face more and more bloated, or leaning more and more on the table
  • how good are the pancakes served? 
    • e.g. customers leave a tip based on the quality

Also, the waiter portion of the twin, is not pushed to work much as it is right now. Customers that come and go and have different needs would put the waiter would have a role that feels more like 50%.

Anyhow, long comment for a great entry!

Very weird and humorous, lots of potential here! Nice one

Art is fantastic, and you did a good job of adding small subtle animations so nothing was too static. I had a bit of trouble putting down some of the pans but I kinda figured it out.
