Cool game! It was pretty difficult manning all the different parts of this game (which i guess reflects a cook's job in real life -- well done!) but i really love the concept. i feel like there's a lot you can do with this so cheers to you and your future projects :)

Definitely a creative idea! No other cooking games I've seen in the jam haha. But it's simply too complicated to hook a player for a jam especially since we are rating so many games. If you need such a long tutorial, it's probably a little too packed. Best thing to do is to reveal complicated mechanics slowly over time (which I actually tried but didn't succeed so I know it's not too easy).

Thanks for your amazing comment! We will try our best next time!

wow thats amazing. such a big game in small time. I got stuck when I hit the green fence please fix it. if u update the game art and visuals the game may become hit. please rate my game too )

Developer(+1)

Yeah thats the thing, we wanted to fix next, but for now if you keep moving, you will get out.

Impressed that you made the game in time. You probably overscoped a little. Definitely too much text at the beginning. That's a good base for a bigger game though.

Developer

Probably, we did. As we are not very experienced in game development, we aren't so good at scoping as well.

Neat idea.

But the ui was so cluttered I had a hard time figuring out whats going on and what I'm supposed to do.
simplifying the ui and core mechanics and insted giving better player feedback to the action that happen on screen would have really helped this game. 

Developer

Thanks for your review! As this game is for a jam, it is not at its final base. We will revamp it so it looks better

Cute little game but the UI is a bit hard to understand and also I could move the cooking and health sliders with the mouse. :D Was that intended?

Developer(+1)

Thanks for your review! No one noticed that bug, except you. Well done! Let's say we ran out of time to playtest enough

Submitted(+1)

Hehe, nice. Yeah, it's fine because of the limited time of the jam! No worries. :D

Developer(+1)

Maybe you just found an intended bug... 😂

cool concept ;)

Developer(+1)

Thanks man! We were trying to be WOWIE about our take on the theme! Your feedback is appreciated.

Submitted(+2)

Love the idea, especially how you have to kill the cows to get the meat. I feel like the UI is way too cluttered however, half of the stuff you dont even need. I feel like you could have streamlined the game with some pop ups such as "Press SPACE to cook" which would make understanding the game better.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback @waterlemon! Yeeeah, we ran out of time to fix the tutorial the way we wanted it, but I do appreciate your take on the UI.

Developer(+1)

Thanks! We will count on your opinion! Your, as well as others, opinion is VERY important!

Developer

Thanks man! We had fun making it!

Submitted(+2)

Hey nice little Game man :-)

Developer

Thanks dude! The team had so much fun doing this project, and we learned from it too.

Submitted(+2)

It was a great game, although the one thing I realized as soon as I started playing, was the tutorial was cluttered. Other than that good job!

Developer

Thanks man! We will take that feedback in mind for the updates after the voting period of the jam is over.

Submitted(+2)

Nice game, except the tutorial could have been executed better...

Great job :D

Developer

My bad on the tutorial man. It was rushed, but we're glad that your enjoyed the rest of the game. Your feedback is appreciated!

Submitted(+3)

I skipped the tutorial, went all out, shot some space cows and roamed the place with a big steak in my cold, robotic hands until I found out how to cook a burger and stay calm while a horde of space cows tried to stampede down my house.
2 minutes well spent :D ;)
Stay funky,
Dez

Developer

Thanks man, we appreciate it! We especially love your rogue approach to playing the game :)

If the tutorial actually made you do the things when it tells you them i could remember everything i have to do. The intentional glitching of the player and him not shooting how you would assume isn't really good. The theme was intentional bugs, but when the game is unplayable i think its too much. Some textures were over others when they shouldn't be (burgers over walls). The textures were too complicated. Also you don't need a separate button to hide the list. You could just make it so click on it to hide it or a smaller button, but i didn't really see a reason to close the list if you need to know what to make. The cooking was also really not user-friendly.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback man! I've added the controls to the description box of the game page. We appreciate your review of the game and will take those words into account in future updates!
