Really cute! The animations and sprites look very cool, good job!

A good looking little competition game!

Fantastic entry!~ It's too bad i didnt have a second player around to give it a go properly. It's a cool concept for sure, love the kirby easter egg. One of the problems I had, was the ingredients not appearing together, I often had to wait a really long time for the correct two things to appear.

Submitted

Love the concept and the art is gorgeous, but I found the actual cooking part to be a bit of a struggle. I never seemed to get the right combination of ingredients, so I spent the majority of my time playing the game just grabbing whatever dropped down, and dumping it out of the way of my Woryl so it wouldn't eat.

I still had a ton of fun playing the game this way, so it's not all bad, but maybe weighting the randomisation in favour of the combination you need a but would be a huge boost.

Submitted

Very cool love the artstyle. Won't be able to play it with someone till the jam ends but I see the potential.

Wow, I absolutely love the art and the polish of this game. It's beautiful to look at and plays really well with a lot of little tricks that make the user experience a delight. Unfortunately I don't have anyone who will play this with me, but it's a real gem. Nice job!

Submitted

Just beautiful. I did have to play by myself but I could see how this would be a really fun 2 player game. Just felt really polished. Amazing jam entry.

Submitted

It looks amazing! The art is fun and really well done. The sound design is also on point. If I had someone to play with I'm sure I'd have a blast haha Nice submission!

Submitted

Super lovely game! As some other comments, I would have preferred a single player mode :P

What I liked

  • I'm a fan of your art style. I remember you posting progress on your tree in discord so I've been curious about it. The tree reminds me of the tree boss from the Kirby games
  • Music and sound fit the visuals well. Nothing clashed
  • You took a classic game and made it your own. One of my first learning projects was a game like this, but it was an ugly bird flying around and you had to catch the eggs. Nothing, but the bare mechanics.

Feedback/Suggestions

  • I think the biggest thing that sticks out is the controls screen. I feel like this game would have benefited from an controls menu rather than a controls cutscene. It's visually crowded and the timer was fast. I really like your text art, but it draws the eye away from what's important - how to play the game. I was able to pause the game and look at your screenshots just to double check the controls, but it was very inconvenient.
  • Take this with a huge piece of salt, but I had to check to how the theme fits when rating. You've played my game so you know, I reeeaaaally stretched how I incorporated the theme for my game.

Overall, I think you did a good job. Congrats!

That was so good ! Really a fun concept, and the art and music are so cuteeeee made me want to eat my screen! Really great job !

Developer

omg! thank you so much for your kind words!  I'm very glad you like it <3

You did a great job with the art style here! Sometimes there were issues with the fruit distribution, e.g: all fruits were the same colour for ages and they all fell in the same area. That said, the gameplay was satisfying overall

Developer

Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed my game even with that pesky bug that appear out of nowhere, something curious is that the windows version doesn't have that bug, I don't know if it's something with the browser, I will look into it, thank you for playing :3

As it's made with GameMaker, I wonder if it's to do with the randomize() function? If you are using that, make sure it only occurs once, in a create event at the start of the game. I had a similar issue with randomness before in HTML and that trick fixed it. Good luck either way!

Nice idea and so cute art! 😍😍😍😍😍😍

Developer

omg! thank youuuu I'm glad you lliked my art :3

The art is awesome! And the music fits perfectly too. But to be honest I am not entirely sure about the gameplay. I know it's a two player game but adding a single player mode would've been great for lonely guys like me :v

Also a issue I noticed after playing a few games is that the fruits just fall from one side of the screen most of the time. I guess it's maybe a bug or a glitch. But it kinda ruins the fun aspect a little bit.

Awesome work nonetheless.

Developer

Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed the game despite that awful bug, something curious is that it's only present on the HTLM5 verison, the windows version doesn't have that issue, I will look into it some day :)

This game is so good

Love the art! Very pretty uwu!~~ Although most of the time I couldn't get a specific fruit that I needed for the recipe. When playing with me sis, instead of cooking the fruit into the pot, we ended dumping the fruits to the side while waiting for the right fruit to show up. 

But when the right fruit did show up theres so much panic xD 

Developer(+1)

oww thank you so much! you are really kind! I'm glad you and your sister enjoyed my game :3 and yes! I have to think in a better way to drop the fruit from the heavens haha, thank you so much for your feedback :3
