- This is a really fun idea and definitely worth exploring more! The pairing of horror with a cooking sim is a unique one and the monster theme added to that. I liked the inclusion of a story. The gameplay was a little finicky, as the plating could get a bit difficult to confirm, but loved the options! I've never cooked a face before :/

The monsters art work is really good , :)
Thank you for playing, I'm not much of an artist so your comment is appreciated.
Pretty well-made game with cute yet creepy art style and characters
However, the fast-paced cooking made my arm hurt so I had to stop at part 3. (Probably because I am a big noobie)
Thank you for playing and sorry about your arm. There were/are going to be story sections that split up levels and provide more story and characterization to Tonji, Kyrie, and another character who will provide support to Kyrie but will also make her realize some things about herself and the life she's lived.
I liked the gameplay; I'd have never thought of merging a cooking game with horror! It was a bit buggy with items sticking to plates however. The music was nice though, and the characters were cool and unique. Overall, it was fun to play and the mechanics were cool too, nice job!
Thank you for playing and notifying me of the bug.
Very engaging, would love to see this idea expanded upon.
Thank you for playing, I will expand upon it as much as I can while also trying not to have feature creep, got a lot of ideas (such as monsters ordering more food after an order is filled but keeping the same time or if a customer waits too long they affect the gameplay, etc) but I also want to finish this game so I wanna build a good foundation first.
I really like the idea of a kind of horror izikaya. The gameplay is quite simple, but you get involved in it quickly. Cool story! The only thing is that I would like more variety so that I don't have to cook so many dishes from the same ingredients in a row and the quit button doesn't work for me.
In any case, it was scary and fun at the same time, I liked it :D
Thank you for playing! There was supposed to be a drink food item where the player needed to use a machine to choose a flavor out of 3 and at the right time click a button to stop a meter to pour out the right amount of drink, didn't have time to implement which is why the sanity bar was created, but I will look into doing so.
Fun Game :) Maybe next time just some simple font! Captured the theme better than I did hahaha
Thanks for playing! Simple font for the title or the dialogue? Dialogue already uses the standard font style (wanted to use a different style but ran out of time).
I really enjoyed playing your game! I'd like to see more Tonji if I could!
Thank you for playing, I'm currently planning to update the dialogue system (which was the reason Tonji wasn't shown as much) and then adding the story that was supposed to be there but couldn't due to time.
Interesting idea for horror game!
Thank you for playing!
At first I thought it was just a visual novel. but the game was a pleasant surprise
Thank you for playing! There was supposed to be more story added, but could only do the first cutscene, and even then it still wasn't the quality I wanted.
Great game!
Thank you for playing!
Thanks for the experience. That is a fun idea and design of monsters is quite fine.
Thank you for playing! The monsters are a mix of yokai and cryptids, hopefully, I captured them well.
I had some issues with the ingredients not moving with the plate; when I tried to move a plate because there was too much to organise, I dragged it into the pink sauce bottle, and the bottle disappeared completely and turned into a pink splat sprite! I also really wish I could make the dialogue type faster. I love the original art assets and am a big fan of cooking management games; I think it's really fun that you combined horror with this concept.
Thank you for playing! I will implement a button to speed up dialogue, and am currently planning on implementing a solution to the plate and food bug.
Fixed the bugs affecting food and the plates, and also made dialogue faster while adding a button to speed up more. Thanks again for your input.
liked it!!) nice
Thank you for playing!
Some minor technical issues, but other than that, super solid game! I really enjoy this type of game.
Thank you for playing. If you could point out any issues that would be much appreciated!
Yeah of course, so sometimes I would put ingredients on a plate but then when I move the plate, one of the ingredients wouldn't move with it in spite of being directly on the plate.
Thank you for the info, I'll look into it.
Fixed the bugs affecting food and the plates. Thanks again for your input.
Cool game, I like this Cooking mama's like horror twist, creative idea after all! Only thing try to fix the plate picking cuz sometimes my ingredient get removed and I fail the order.
Thank you for playing and notifying me of the error.
Cool game I like the different character models and intro cut-scene. Had some problems with the game when trying to add things to the plate they wouldn't be added or items farther of would be taken with it which made it hard to get a plate done right. Though overall was a fun game and well made nice job.
Thank you for playing, yea was a bug experienced near the end, will attempt to fix it soon after I rest my hand
Fixed the bugs affecting food and the plates. Thanks again for your input.
