Megachonk was here!
I do feel that if i was little bit better i could play to infinity.

Cool concept tho, simple yet engaging.

Very funny! I had a great time throwing the ghost cats that were blocking my path. It’s very simple but really enjoyable.

If you want to check out our game, feel free to do so :3 https://butterflan.itch.io/spicy-king

Haha, you know how to deal with cats apparently :)

I like that you used the Scoville scale in your game, that's a creative choice (and also, I really like spicy stuff)

Really nice game and mechanics. 

Completing a scale should give you more time, or maybe I'm just bad at it.

Developer

Thanks for playing and the feedback. Yeah, balancing games is hard :)

I like the concept, the difficulty is a little higher than what I'd like. It's a fun game loop and the fact you have a scoreboard is insane. Good job!

Developer

Thanks wozzyb!
Leaderboard was surprisingly easy to add, we are using this solution: link.
As for the difficulty: thank you for the feedback. It's really hard to balance a game, especially when we were playing it for 100th time and are getting quite good at it, so it is nice to know the perspective of others. :)

Fun concept, but sadly the timer didn't scale up (ya get it? ;)). But in all seriousness timer wasn't working properly and did not add time when placing correct weight on the platforms :(

Developer

The timer was limited to MAX 60 seconds, otherwise the game was infinitely easy :) But I don't exclude the possibility there are some bugs, if you send me a video of the bug I could look into it. Cheers!

Wow, you even made a settings menu. Nice!

Developer

Thanks for the kind words MiraCakes <3
