First game I've rated in the jam and it's a nice, relaxing one :)
I love the concept of collecting\foraging for items that you then cook and give to the villagers.
I did get lost pretty quickly though, but perseverance at least got me to craft a few things.
To help with that lost feeling, I'd definately add a progression system, where only one item is available in the pots, one that doesn't need too many items. This will give an initial feeling of completion before goig onto tougher recipes.
I struggled to find the chicken things :D, as I felt like I was wandering around aimlessly. A mini map would be very helpful especially if it highlighted where certain items are.
Overall it was a nice little game and I'd love to see where you take it (Y)
