I have my mouse sensitivity really low by default and I would have had to adjust it in my mouse settings if I wanted to be able to play without whipping my mouse across my entire desk :(
Really cool game, though!

Really original theme, great graphics and original feel, hard to master easy to pick up !

Developer(+1)

thank you! I am glad you were able to master the slinging

Unsettling but soothing atmosphere established off the bat from the intro. Cool music and a very unique idea. The npcs are whimsical.  I was really bad at poultry prepping but it was satisfying when I managed to do it right haha

This is great lol, I love the overall vibe and gameplay. The music is nice too

I really loved the intro! The created mood was exceptional. I struggled a bit with the controls at the start, but I really enjoyed the game once I understood them. Great job, team!

This game is super original, very fun. It took me a little while to understand the controls, but once I got them, I had a great time. I had to go cook a real egg because it made me hungry, haha. Great entry!

Developer(+1)

haha I have heard the egg thing a few times. Glad to hear it. Also really happy people are getting hungry for eggs rather than feeling the urge to smoke lol

dude what did i just play. that was almost kind of transcendental? my friend said the dialogue was “like cowboy bebop if it was stupid”. absolute goddamn masterpiece. why am i cooking eggs with cigarettes? you know, for the taste. it’s fine. i feel like i’ve become a master of the weirdest egg frying you’ve ever heard of. the gameplay was very tricky, but it’s amazing for that. i feel like i need to check out your other games now, this was unlike anything i’ve ever played before

Developer(+1)

haha thank you so much! Cowboy Bebop was my main inspiration for the setting/world. Wouldn’t recommended my other game, it’s unlike anything you’ve ever played but in a bad way

excellent presentation, simple but very nice game. But personally I'm very bad

Very nice game. Would love to change sens, other than that very good game. Art is unique and story is cool.

This might be the most unique game of the jam. I love the environment and not to mention the cutscene at the beginning is incredibly well done. It's somehow unsettling and relaxing at the same time. Fantastic Job!!!

The aesthetic and environment are so delightfully weird. Yet, consistent enough that it draws you in. I just want to keep winging eggs around.

This is really cool and vibey. I was not a very good poultry prepper.

As someone who has fried many an egg for breakfast, I've often wondered why we don't see more games highlighting the relatively simple tactile motion of egg flipping. When I used to wonder that, it was always in the context of cooking games. I never dreamed of it being a core mechanic in a game that's about something deeper than just cooking, that's brilliant. The controls were ubiquitous and at times tumultuous (wink). Really cool and stylish game, and really awesome world building.

Incredible presentation and extremely original. Immediately draws you in and keeps you hooked. I think the tie in with the mode theme was a little loose, but great work nonetheless.

I am the best egg chef in Antarctica.

I never had any doubts

Awesome environment and atmosphere. Nailed it with the lighting and shaders. We also liked the way the dialogue was presented and how fleshed-out the mechanics were for the cooking minigame. The cigarette timers were really cool. Well done!

Submitted(+2)

fantastic controls, setting, and graphics. Still trying to come to terms with what the hell i just played. Why so many cigarettes? and some of these character designs are truly bizzarre lol. Still a great little game, good job!

Cdbunker2 and Water Museum's work as of late is some of the most original and unique, not just in indie gamedev, but digital art as a whole. Any project these two are on together is canned magic. This game's strengths are undeniable; It's hypnotizing music, restrained palate, poetic dialogue, and surreal gameplay make it one of the most creative gaming projects I've witnessed come into being in a long time. Truly inspiring. Glued to my screen to see what these two have up their sleeves next...

I really cant tell you how much this message has meant to me and the rest of the team. We are all incredibly grateful that you, and everyone else who played this game, has such high praise for it. We wont let ya down

I love the control scheme of this one. Its very cool.

Submitted(+2)

It has a great idea , when i played i encountered a bug (at least i think) when i cooked the first egg it spawned 2 then more and i had 6 eggs in my pan that was funny

really unique gameplay style, I also loved the presentation and overall style of the game.
