I'm so glad I got the chance to play this - thank you so much for providing an English language version! I loved this. So unexpected. Kind of reminded me of Doki Doki Literature Club - some of my senses were telling me I was in a safe and cosy environment, while others were telling me to run for my life. Wait! I thought of another comparison - the woman in the radiator from Eraserhead. Comforting and repulsive and funny and horrifying all at once! I think the satire of a talk show / cookery show was a great choice. Sitting at home alone, eating processed food, transifixed by the TV, watching celebrities have simulated conversations while they prepare organic ingredients you can aspire to preparing yourself one day... this game reveals the nightmare!

wow. i died at what i think was the final day. even though the translation was obviously compromised, i can tell this writing is funny and original, and i did laugh several times (sacrifice grandma to adramelech, not trusting humans since the virtual boy... lol). 

the character art was really top notch and the music, though i wish there was more of it, was really nice as well. sometimes you don't need to fully understand something to appreciate it. thanks.

These are weird, awesome-looking characters. And opening animation is charming in the same way. I understood bits and pieces, but can't really vote until there's an english version available. It would be good to see a couple of controls, like a restart and a quit button.

Hi! Thanks a lot :-D. We posted a very last-moment version with an English translation if you want to try it out :-)

Well I've just tried the English version and it is as weird as one would expect. I had a long laugh at 'They forced me to study mathematics to confirm the existence of God and Donatella Versace'. The challenge of recalling ingredients is neat, and the ingredients listed are amusing. There was mention of the theme. The tone is consistently charmingly absurd, though there were moments where I was confused about what was being said, possibly a translation thing. Fun lil game!

I don't understand Italian but I think the visuals are pretty sick! I like the weird surreal collage style for the characters and how they stand out on the simple background. I hope people try this even if they don't understand it!

Developer

Thanks a lot! We just pushed an English version of it, at the veeeeery last moment ;D

Ooh, I'll check it out once I'm able to and update my rating. Thanks for letting me know!

That was pretty dope! The grammar was a bit off in some places, but it was still more than understandable. I was lost on what had to be done during the cooking minigame though, as whatever was written on the left side was still in Italian. Either way, the bits I could understand were pretty hilarious, and I definitely found myself smiling at the variety of characters, their situations, and the absurdity of it all. Cool little surreal mess of a game, in a great way!

Speaking of the minigame, I think it's pretty cool, even though I was a bit lost as to what was going on. It's nice to see some gameplay beyond just text here. It looks just as goofy as the rest of the game!

Thanks a lot for the feedback! ❤️

The lines of explanations of the minigame were the only ones that weren't in Ink, and as such we forgot to translate them - pushed a fix for that too!

ahahaha ma che è

btw, keyboard controls (at least for the dialogue: button to advance, other buttons for the choices; and to quit and to restart) would be a great addition.

typo: “pat pat” (?) e “pat-pat”; “scolata/b>”, “palla!.”, Snookie diventa Snooki (?), “cuccie”

mi incuriosisce la localizzazione di un po’ tutto ma in particolare [SPOILER?] di Paolo Brosio e Cuccarini se Lorella, e il riferimento al recentissimo fatto di cronaca rosa [/SPOILER?]

Developer

Grazie per la segnalazione per i typo :D siamo arrivate alla fine così esauste che letteralmente non abbiano riletto NULLA XD Il suggerimento per i controlli è ottimo <3 Mentre per la localizzazione di cose così specifiche ci sono non poche *** in corso :D Anche perché abbiamo un po' di reference culturali su cui appoggiarci ma che fanno più capo al mondo UK che non a qualcosa di generale. Possiamo giusto confidare nel trash che la famiglia Kardashian sa offrire al globuniverso :D (asap ci giochiamo bl.ink :D)

I didn't understand most of what was happening but the visuals and music were very fun! Excited to give it another go once it's available in english

Hi! Thanks a lot for the feedback! We pushed a last-minute translation of the game in English if you want to try it out :D

Thanks for letting me know; I gave it another play and really enjoyed it!

None of the dialogue was anything like what I expected but it was all very fun, original, and greatly amusing! The minigame was also very fun :)

Hello pals, we'll try to make an english translation asap, for the first days the game we'll be only in italian. Sorry <3
