Sorry.... I ate the cheese.... and the black hole...

Submitted(+1)

The black hole called me muenster :( 

Jokes aside, it was a pretty solid game! I really liked it and it felt very polished, good job!

Submitted(+1)

great submission! creative AND fun, a difficult combo to beat :D

Submitted(+1)

Nothing compares to the scale of a black hole! I wish there was some indication of what to do for each mini game, the 1st and 3rd were pretty straight forward but I couldn't figure out the music one, I'm assuming it was something to do with playing a correct music scale but maybe I was doing something wrong. Luckily I still managed to complete the game without finishing that one! I got a good laugh out of the intro too. Definitely a unique submission haha but thoroughly enjoyed! Nice work  

Developer

Thank you! Yeah, gotta play the fish notes in a musical scale. I’m really glad you could still finish the game because the intention was if someone didn’t like one of the mini games or couldn’t figure it out, they could still play the other ones to get more graters and slicers.

Mmmm, a very delicious game! Makes me hungry for cheese; thankfully, I'm eating pizza soon :P

I like all the minigames, and they're all presented in a quirky style! I do wish some of them had more instructions (especially the music one) and it was more clear how the graders assisted you, but still fun regardless! Overall, a good time, short and sweet with lots of personality.

Haha thanks! Those were definitely things I wanted to get to but didn’t have much time left. Glad you still enjoyed it!

Great interpretation of the theme hahaha! I don't know why but the pixel art of the fishes is really hitting that ds era nostalgia spot, great job! I loved it!

Developer

thx bro, it's prob all the dots i used 4 texture that make it look grainy + the eyes like 🔘 (inverted) fr

Can't open the game :(

Developer

Sorry, are you able to download it though?

CHEESE

I love the style and the fish scale minigame! I wish there was an indicator that I collected all the peelers and graters but after a few extra rounds on the fish scales I realized the numbers weren't going up. Great game, and I would love to see what the second mini game was going to be!

Developer

Glad you enjoyed it! I definitely wanted to put some indicator that you collected everything, but wasn't sure what to use to indicate that. Only thing I could think of was changing the tab sprite after you leave the minigame which isn't that effective haha. Thanks for playing! I have to ask though, what 2nd mini game are you referring to ? Do you know more about the cheese than myself??

Developer

? 🪤🪤🪤

I am refering to the singing fish thing. Not really sure what I was supposed to do there except jam out to some fish haha

Developer(+1)

Ohh they're built to scale! You should get graters if you play them in ascending order like a musical scale

I guess I totally missed that, my bad!

When you have too many good ideas for the theme...just make all of them I guess? Great entry and funny too. 5/5

Submitted(+1)

Cheesy clicker. Ok.

Super polished and really fun! Really great job with all the extra effects :D

Submitted(+1)

This felt like a fever dream in the best way. Really polished, fun, and inventive. I had a blast playing. I expect this to be one of the top games, it really was so good.

Submitted(+1)

It's super juicy, super wacky and funny, super polished, I loved it. All 5's from me on this one!

Submitted(+1)

This game has a really good feel with the screen shake, sound effects, and music. I was a bit confused at the beginning how to get the game to start and where to go from there. Other than that a really good game. Great Job!

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks for the insight! If you don't mind, which part of the game were you confused? It would be helpful for me to know for future reference. Thanks again!

It was just clicking the cheese at the beginning and then navigating to the different areas like the fish area
