Wow, that was amazing. I didn't expect it to be that fun. The art was also really good. Great job.
Very good game! The sound and visual effects are juicy and the core concept is pretty fun. Nice job!
The juice of the game is incredible! I think the tutorial is enough to understand. Great job!
Liked it a lot. The art is just amazing .
The cooking process was not very clear at first but once you get it it become very fun.
Good job. I had fun :)
Nice game! WhiteVault did an amazing job with the art
it's very hard but it's fun
Very well polished and game feel is solid! Pretty good art too! Crazy you made this in 48h! Gonna check your YT dev video! Nicely done!
Wow, the art is absolutely stunning. Really beautiful stuff!
The gameplay is also really satisfying once you get the hang of it! I could totally see this being a full-length game, unlocking new rooms, new kitchen equipment, that sort of thing.
Absolutely fantastic work, great job! :)
Really Great. The art is to die for. Very Polished.
Would be nice to have more kitchens, pantries and more cute creatures..
BTW, Would love for you to try my game too.
It is an Action Platformer with unique controls.

I really like the idea and mechanics to this. The art is also absolutely amazing. I really love this style. There is absolutely nothing i could complain about.
I for myself found it a bit difficult to get into the flow of things, but that seems more like an experience issue as GameJam entries tend to have no real hand-holding.
Amazing game! Especially loved the visuals and overall presentation. I do have to admit that it does feel a bit too hectic. Regardless, great job!
This game is incredibly fun! My only complaint is I didn't know which monster spawned where before I checked both of the rooms. But it's very polished and felt like a demo for a genuine game. The difficulties felt just right too. And just a unique take on the theme!
Hey Vim. One small thing: I was confused at first that the place where you put the monsters changes the type of food. I'd have loved it if you made that more clear. Great game!
AMAZING
The pixel art is beautiful and the game is fun! My only remark is that this concept would probably work better if it all took place on a single screen, instead of moving between rooms. Still great work for a 48 hour game!
Really fun game with awesome graphics and presentation – unbelievable work for 48 hours! I think the link to the theme could be a bit of a stretch, but regardless I had a great time playing this. The mixture of different gameplay styles is really neat and well executed. I love the boiling down of the core components of other games and plugging them together in a nice modular way, so that’s something I will definitely draw inspiration from in future; thanks!
Game looks great and is presented extremely well. It's also a bunch of fun to play, awesome work Vimlark and Whitevault :)
This is a cool mixture of ideas and a really fun game!
a bit confusing when you first start out but once you get the hang of it it does show its charm. i will say though i do agree with others here about the two bars being kind of pointless (and kind of disregarding the theme, unfortunately) and the gameplay being a bit odd but other than that this idea has some potential :)
That was NICE! A really clever way to fit inside the theme with a great execution. Even if the endless mode doesn't work, it doesn't matter. It's still GOLD!
At first you really feel lost when you actually try to figure out which monster you should pick up by remembering your orders and looking at the wall to get indications, but once you get the hang of it, it's a lot of fun! :D
Nice work guys! :)
I really enjoyed playing your game. The overall presentation is just awesome, there is so much love and detail put into the pixel art.
The gameplay feels very smooth and reminds me a bit of overcooked. There the chaos is also very present and through the timer that you implemented, i also have the feeling of chaos in me.
Unfortunately, i don't understand exactly how the jam's theme fits in your game. I understand that the player's life is linked to the hunger level of the eldritch horror. But then the theme is only implemented in the plot and as a visual UI. You could also have made both bars as one though. So i missed the theme a bit in the general gameplay.
Overall i think this is a really awesome game, but in my opinion the only thing missing was the theme. Despite that you did a great job. My respect for the pixel art though.
