Great work on a summer job. Excellent core gameplay loop that reminds me of the diner dash type of game.  I ran into some game-breaking bugs where if i was already carrying something, then someone places their order, the notepad would "overwrite" the delivery of the order. Then, even if i tried to bring the notepad to the chef, the original object could not be delivered. I think some type of dash mechanic would be good to speed up the gameplay. Also, instead of a timer/coroutine to take orders, make it my responsibility to check on the tables.

I loved the little arcade cabinets with the built-in flappy bird! Great work with the minigame and the overall feel for this game.

Congratulations on submitting!

Amazing game!!!

I liked how you conveyed the message of work-life balance by addidng that arcade element. The graphics are good, overall loved the game.

Just one little bug : I could go out through the entrance; (there is a collider but if you try forcing from the corners, the player moves out)

very cool concept.  love the art style and all the animations! 5/5 for gameplay and high 3s or 4 in the other categories

Such a unique concept!!!!! I love it! Easy 5/5 for the gameplay.  Challenging, but fair.  Like someone pointed out, you can take an order while you are using the arcade machine. Amazing work.

Thanks so much for the feedback!

What a fun little concept! I really enjoyed trying to stay on top of the customers and the arcade game. The only bug I found was that, when served and leaving, you could press "E" on the customer again, forcing you to take their order. Besides that, a fantastic game which you could play for hours. Great job!

Ahhh getting a summer job, every teenagers worst nightmare (I can say this from experience lol). This was really creative and fun! I liked having to multitask between all the different things. The graphics were really good as well. I did encounter a problem where when I had an order and my hand and tried to take another it wouldn’t let me give the order to the customer. Overall a really solid and fun game!


I rated your game, could you please rate mine :)
