I loved the look of the game, but even after reading the comments I didn't really understand what to do. It could use a better tutorial

Extremely cute graphics!

Was stuck at first, but after reading other comments here figured out I could move pizza pieces in the TAB mode.

Completed the two levels, but they didn't really have a puzzle element. Just get them together and wander to the exit.

Oh and fitting tune in the background!

The art style is super cute!!! The space bar controls weren't activating anything for me (except the music volume maybe?), but I could see how this game's concept could be really good!

Press the tab key to zoom in/out for the map, the space key is to interact with your cheese buddy and it has some detection issues. Thanks for your review

Ahh I see!! I just tried it with the tab and rotated the picture around a bit but couldn't manage to figure out how to escape haha

Find a "cheese hole" on the map, press your space key to jump in. Wala! you made it to the end.

Very cute game, LOVELY art. 

I had a few bugs with the collision at the edges. With a title like "Run cheese run", I thought I was in for an intense game and chases but I was surprised how cosy it is.  You wrote in the description that there were pursuing forks but mine weren't moving. Maybe it didn't work or you didn't had time to implement it but it would suit better for sure. I would also love to have more connection between your cheese/pizza theme and the zoomed out mini-maps. Perhaps if they were in a triangular shape and you had to place them in circles it would feel better ?  With a cheesy sound effect when you place it down instead of the paper feel. 

Quite enjoyable nonetheless.

Haha, the title indeed sounds like an intense chase game. I ran out of time to implement the fork movement behavior. I like your triangular shape idea and placing them in circles; it definitely suits better with the cheese/pizza theme. Thanks for your review! 🍕🧀
