Judge feedback

Judge feedback is anonymous.

  • Love these type of order taking games, the spreading mechanic could be improved to more fluently spread. for some variety, maybe there could be some cursed toppings you could apply.

Extra Notes
My first game! There is definitely some rescaling issues if played in a screen that is not 1920x1080 (developed in 1440p), my sincerest apologies and this is a big lesson learned for my next game.

This was such a fun concept!!! i love how harsh the judging is!!! I would eat this up (pun not intended but i'll take it) and play it for hours if you ever decide to polish it up into a fuller game

I really appreciate that!

I have made quite a few changes to the game post-submission that I intend to publish on itch.io once the judging has finished. Personally, I think the game feels much smoother (the puns are contagious).

I'd love to hear your thoughts if you get a chance to check it out!

A sneak peak & some update highlights:

  • Slice rating is now periodically updated while spreading and upon releasing your left mouse click from spreading (so you no longer have to break your spreading flow to click the "Rate Slice" button)
  • Order feedback! The judging is just as harsh, but now it'll let you know how you did.
  • UI Rework

Great idea! More focus on the judgement is needed. I think the player needs to be explicitly punished. This reminds me of some of the Mario Party minigames. Great job.

Thank you for checking it out! I totally agree, the judgement system didn't get as much refinement as I hoped. I iterated on the spread mechanic too long to get it to a place I was happy with.
I love Mario Party and its minigames, so I really appreciate the comparison.
