Cool story idea! It would be nice to have an indicator which spice would be next if you go up and down. Also, sometimes when the dishes were on the very left or right side, I wouldn't be able to hit them! Other than that, nice work!

I liked the `spice monkey`.
This was my attempt at a pun. 🤦♂️
Any case, I really liked the game. It took me a while to realize that the dishes are moving towards the left end. And also, I don't know if I like or hate the fact that I can't see which seasoning is selected unless I spew it out. :) But considering that there's no downside to just spray constantly, it's fine :)
Cool game, all in all. Also, nice that you managed to squeeze in the music.

SeasonBlocksGreat game. I loved the graphics and the cyborg monkey. Would be great if there was any indication what seasoning you have selected.

Pizzeria Quattro Stagioni - TriJam70This game is unique on the theme interpretation. but not gonna lie, there are few of issue here. first thing first, lets break down the issues :
- The food movement. they pretty much only move once every few sec, makes it really boring. And looks like theres also spot where the food can move to but we can't shoot em. fact that they move really rarely even make it worse. Maybe you should let the food collision with the other and change their movement algorithm, t you could like make it move right for randomized step and move left for randomized step and looping it. ill bet it would be much more fun
- Are there any losing state or time limit ? if there are, you should cut the time and show it on the game, and if there's none, you should add one :p
okay, now lets talk about what's good from the game
- The art. i can tell this game would be in top 5 visuals.
- Audio. sfx and music is blending well, i like it
These are my subjective opinion so take it with a grain of salt. im not a good game dev either so that add up to how unreliable this comment was XD

Save the SeasonThanks for your comment and for trying the game! You're right that we could have made the shooting more fun given more time, but this is as far as we got. There was supposed to be a mechanic where you'd have to refill with the correct spices, but we didn't have time for that. the movement algorithm is actually exactly as you described it, just didn't have time to tweak it to make it more fun. regarding the time -- it says in the description that you have 3 minutes to season as many plates as possible. Thanks again for trying it out and leaving your constructive criticism.
