Love the idea of the game! Simple, satisfying and cute.

Took a bit to understand how to play, but then it was quite fun. The art is really nice!

The music and art were so cool! Also the slicing mechanic was really satisfying.

These customers crazy not taking the free extra 67kg of scales I miss measured. This one's really fun, creative and cute. Good job, I will not disclose my score on the first attempt.

Good art style and idea, had fun.

This art style is wonderful, I loved the range of customers, the sketchy UI and the wavy text :)

Core loop is a lot of fun, it felt a little unforgiving at first but once I'd figured out a scale-slicing technique that worked for me I started to really have fun with this! Really liked having to set up the scale myself first, adds a nice extra layer to this

Enjoyed playing it, love the idea of a scales shop and the slicing mechanic is just straightforward and fun!

It's a great game with a consistent style. I like the variety of customers despite the short time limit given. The game is overall enjoyable and encourages the player to retry for a better score! Amazing work! (I am the Graphic Artist of https://crowninggames.itch.io/sushi-stacker)

Good game, great art, sadly the resolution doesn't really fit with mine screen, but I still played a little bit. Well done.

I got drawn in by the artstyle, took me a bit to figure out that I need to click and drag in the top area then I read the description :P

Cool entry, I like that you have to do a bit of math to set the weight on the left then cut to the right, great visuals!

I like this rough but very attractive design.

Thank you my friend!

Pretty interesting game! Really enjoyed the hand drawn art and appreciated the narrative build around it.

I did find one thing that's seemed to be a bit of an exploit. If I hit the "Serve" button while the scale is still swinging, as long as I hit it while the two sides are aligned it would register as the correct amount of scales.

Really great entry! Good job!

Developer

Ah, right we still got a lot of bugs on this game 😅😅

thank you for playing it!

quite creative.

Developer

Thank you!

Cool game!

It took some time to understand how the game worked at first but very interesting idea.

The game looks good, and the "customers" are funny. I would just have liked a longer mode, I'm so bad that I can only take 3 or 4 orders before the game ends...

Fun game, congrats!

Developer

Thank you! I'll consider that for the future!
