To start off, the art style here is absolutely brilliant. I love the hand drawn look to pieces. It reminds me of those wacky cartoon books I read growing up that would use cut out letters from newspapers for the words and everything was just abstract and zany. The way the toppings shape themselves to make for fun puzzle pieces is such a quirky and fun touch that I would have never thought of in my own game but it’s perfect here. Audio and special winning effects and transitions are really nice too! I think the only thing I couldn’t figure out was how to increase my score, but just solving the puzzle was fun and satisfying for me. Excellent game :)

Thank you ! For the score it depends on the number of ingredients you use, for 3 stars you need the minimum of ingredients possible to complete the level, for the first level, it is 7 for exemple ! But I explained this absolutely nowhere, it’s like the number one question x)

I adore this art style, definitely one of the most unique ones I've seen! The puzzle mechanics are really enjoyable, but it took me a while to realise that the level wasn't over because I hadn't balanced the healthy and unhealthy elements. Perhaps having some sort of popup or notification when you've filled all the spaces but the balance is wrong would help?

Very well presented overall, definitely a standout entry.

That's a really really good idea ! If I have time I'll add it in the second version that is coming out this weekend ! For now there is a tutorial on the front page that explain the balance element but I know a lot of people miss it x)

Thanks a lot for playing and for your comment !

Very cool art and general style! Sometimes games with fantastic art can disappoint with the gameplay, but not in this case, was an enjoyable challenge and I took great pride in completing the soup!

Loved this unique take on the cooking game, finding the perfect balance. The art is wonderful and bursts of personality. 

The only thing I can say that I think it would help is having some marks or measurements on the top left meters, so you know exactly how many kinds of food you're off. I struggled with that on the first level but then you just kind of get used.

I spent way too much time to find the perfect combination :v

Loved the art style and the music. And it's so engaging. Can keep anyone hooked on to it for quite a while. Awesome work!

What I liked

  • Its clear without explanation how the theme is incorporated.
  • I absolutely love the hand drawn art style. Maybe its just me, but I think its hard to pull off due to being consistent visually.
  • I think you nailed the atmospheric music and sound for the game. It has that "I'm on the backline" feel.
  • You included a tutorial. Puzzle games really need that.

I usually try to provide some criticisms, suggestions, or questions in my feedback, but nothing really stuck out negatively. I feel like this was a solid and fun entry to this jam. Congrats!

Looks really good. Was it all hand drawn? 

I really like the transitions between the scenes and the gameplay presents a really interesting challenge.

Really awesome job!

Super cute! I love your art style.
It was so much fun to play, but after the first course, I didn't get any more ratings. But maybe I did something wrong?

What ? that is really weird, what do you mean you didn't get any more rating ? Like you completed the next level and it never gave you stars ? If that is the case, maybe you didn't balance the plate, you need to have as much greasy food (the food to the left) as healthy food (the food to the right), you can see the balance in the left corner (I am assuming that's what went wrong because that's what my sister did wrong)

Yes, exactly. No stars.

Oh dear, I thought I had a little bit of a margin. :D But that was probably the problem. It's quite hard. But fun! I'll try again :)

Edit:

Yes that was it :D sorry, my fault

But now I did it 😍
