I wasn't entirely sure what I was doing, I figured out the piano but had no idea what to do with the other two, it looked good though!

yeah sorry we didn't really explain the barbecue very well, you need to hold F to bring up your sanity, and you can do it whenever.

Great game, and good use of the theme! Nice visuals too. I couldn't manage to interact with the barbecue though.

Nice entry! It was interesting trying to handle the stress meter while playing. I saw in another comment how to do it, but I struggled at first to understand how to fix the barbecue (found out you needed to hold it by reading the comment), wish it was a little more clear in game how it's meant to be done. I tried to survive as long as I could but couldn't figure out if there was a way to win/decrease stress or if it was an infinite game. Thought the art style/music was nice :)

You can use the barbecue at any point of the game, even when it does not need to be fixed. It also makes you more relaxed, adding to the bar. I'm sorry we did not clarify that. We were cutting for time at the end, barely sending it in on time.

I hope this helps, and yes, this game is beatable
