Played for a few tries and eventually got a score of 23. I hold this is not too bad. The idea of the game is pretty nice, trying to perfectly make pancakes according to the orders. I found it quite fun and enjoyed it quite a lot. The hand-drawn graphics are cute, and I really like the gameover screen with the arrest note. Custom screens like these are always a good sign of polish and deserve praise!

For a bit of criticism, I'd say the game doesn't progress in terms of difficulty, and once you've got into a rhythm of the orders, it's actually quite hard to lose. It would be way nicer if the game started to add ingredients the further you go. I'll also comment on the fact that the game is kind enough to give you infinite time when reading the order, which I think can be changed to a set amount in order to increase difficulty.

Anyway, this is an interesting entry and I do see potential in the game idea! Keep up the good work!

Charming art and concept! Although I found it a little hard keep track of all the ingredients and the timer is pretty unforgiving. Would love more feedback when interact with items so you can get a sense of what you're able to put into the pancakes

Surprisingly hard game, once you messed up there's no way I found to correct yourself haha. So basically, you're going to get arrested.

This game is soo hard haha. The pancakes look so good though

Ugh these people would call a police over everything, worse than my German neighbors! Thanks for the game, I enjoyed it!

オーダーを覚えるのが楽しみに欠ける

big "papa's" vibes. nice and simple art style works well. 10/10 pancakes, 0/1 restaurants still open. grandma approval is down

I love the art, the gameplay is fun and very interesting.

Cool idea ! I love the artstyle and the simplicity of it (even though it's really hard at first)

Loved this one! Reminds me of the Papa's series (Papa's Pancakeria in this case). Good job doing the whole game on your own too in just one week!

Cute little game! It is very challenging at first, but eventually you get the hang of it. I do agree with others that icons of some sort could make the game easier to pick up. Overall, well done! :)

My grandma is actually gordon ramsey and this pancake parlor is a 15 michelin star eatery, i got a high score of 4 grandma will only accept perfection.

Funny little game. The orders are quite hard to remember especially at the beginning. Maybe using icons for the ingredients would be helpful. Also im loving the police pancake.

My score was 15 and I really liked the astethics, you did a great job with keeping the same artstyle consistent :) Instead of words, I think Icons or coloring the words in certain colors would have helped a lot. Nice concept!!! Police did get me...

preetty fun game, and cool idea, but the orders were really hard and it was almost imposible to remember it all correctly without using the paper
