Amazing idea I must say. I quite enjoyed it! Building cakes made me remind of that old Windows 7 game called Purble Place!
Thanks! I'd completely forgotten Purble Place existed until after the jam but I played a bunch of it as a kid so it probably inspired elements of this game :)
Very Cute! I loved the feedback and sprite design. At the end I wanted more! I couldn't figure out how to present the cake to the rating system. :(
Thanks! If you make a cake that matches the photo the word perfect will automatically appear at the side.
This is perfect DS minigame, great stuff!
Really fun :)
Cool concept, had fun !
This game is super neat for the building aspect, but I thought there'd be a rating system or something. Very creative though!
Thanks! It does tell you if you get it to exactly match the photo. I did want it to show you how close you were as a percentage but I'm still not sure how I'd handle the checking for that 😅
So neat to just mess around and make funny cakes! Super unique idea!
Thanks! I'm very glad I added those googly eyes haha
This is the first game I've given a full rating for. Just sharing thoughts as I was playing.
"wow no way, the dimension system is really intuitive!"
"oh phew I can move cakes.. I feel bad about throwing the one I cut wrong away, maybe I can save it for later." (I didn't throw away any cake in the end!)
"Neat! I can color the icing!"
"What are these rectangle decorations? Ohhh they're windows! that's really cute!"
"THERE ARE GOOGLY EYES!"
Not sure if I was missing anything, but was there only one level for design?
Please make this into a full game!
Thank you so much for the kind words! Glad you had fun with it! Yeah, there's only one level. I originally planned to have more but they're a bit too time consuming and annoying to setup at the minute with the jam code 😅
Awesome. Reminds me of the flash games I used to play as a kid. Very good rendition of that style, sounds and all.
Here's the one I made :)
Thanks! That's the feel I was going for. Is that green stick with an eye a lamppost? I love that haha
It's supposed to be a person staring in awe at the buildings, but going by the "let your imagination run free" vibe, I guess it could be a lamp post too! :)
Even better :D
very sweet game! love the art and music. Great job!
Really fun (But stressful) simulator of running a cake business! Definitely killed my boredom!
Stressful is definitely not what I was going for with this one haha. Glad you enjoyed!
awesome game design, fun game concept
Super cool! I like how you can make cake robots with faces
It was an extremely important feature haha
Really cool game! I spent wayyyy too much time trying to get the perfect cake :p
Thanks! Hope you were able to make your dream cake haha
Very cute game, It would be handy to just move a full cake at once. I was 1 off and taking everything apart took some time
Yeah, that's something I wanted to add but I didn't have enough time for it. Had too much potential to add weird bugs if I rushed it in and got it wrong.
Very good concept and excellent execution! I also had an idea where players would need to cut meat but eventually went with something else. Glad to see someone made something similar!
Cute artstyle, i spend a nice time measuring and slicing the cakes , very creative way in dealing with the gamejam theme, congratulations on finishing the gamejam!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the game.
I'M SO PROUD OF MY PERFECT CAKE :D
That aside, it's a really cute and fitting idea, and I really loved it <3
Glad you liked it, love the rainbow colours :D
Really cute idea, perfectly fit with the jam. The art was perfect, mechanics super simple to understand. This was really a phenomenal game, so polished.
Thank you for the kind words :)
Love the idea of building cakes to scale. Was pretty impressed with how smooth and seamlessly everything worked. The individual mechanics were very easy to grasp and I have to say I genuinely think the ruler measuring mechanic is super cool, and the follow up with the chopping board was super satisfying. My only feedback is that I wish there were a way to remove decals.
Overall wonderful little toy of a game, with some very satisfying elements.
Really well done. I think
Thanks! I 100% agree with it needing something to remove the decals, it was something I did want to add but there just wasn't time for it in the end.
