How does the game fit the theme?
Players need to balance gaining taste for the biscuit with the integrity decreasing and sogginess increasing. This risk element is literally for the biscuit

Love this one! The controls and little reticle make this feel like a really cool submarine type game while also having the cute art style, great entry!

Nice cute art, Loved the cup's expressions.

Couldn't understand how to get it to dunk for a long time.

I really like the concept and the art. It definitely looks really good! Like others have said, it's a little difficult figuring out how to do things. Like, how do you eat/get rid of your biscuit after you're done dunking it? And before seeing the circle turn green, I had no idea that there was a specific position it needed to be dunked it. And I didn't know if I needed to do anything while the biscuit was in the tea. A little more instruction would go a long way! Everything else looks and sounds great, so you should be proud nonetheless!

Thanks for playing. Yes, a short tutorial level would help the player get to grips with the mechanics for sure

Interesting idea for this game jam, it was funny to dip the biscuit risking it could get soggy, my only suggestion is to add a tutorial or a little explanation to what it needs to be done gameplay wise :)

Developer

Totally agree!

I gave it a few goes, but I still don't quite understand how to get the taste to the max without the biscuit breaking? 

Other than that, I think the art and audio are great! 

Developer (1 edit)

Yeah it's a bit tricky for sure. There's a sweet spot before the sogginess comes in where the taste goes up! Thanks for playing!

Hey, I played your game but was a bit confused. Once you dip the bisquit and put it out again, how do you eat it? Or how do you dip it again? For some reason after getting it out, the center on the right part screen was not alligned with the cup anymore and I didn't know what to do... In my second try I let the bisquit too long in the cup and the cup started to cry... I felt sorry for it, poor cup :(

The visuals and audio were cute!

I couldnt figure out when to dip the biscuit or how u keep the steadiness a give tutorial wouldve been very nice, but really liked the artwork on your game. i hope u add a tutorial.

Submitted(+1)

I like the concept but I couldn't figure out when I was supposed to dunk my biscuit or what triggered the green outline to appear. Other than that, great work! 

Submitted(+1)

Not sure if there is a win screen, I successfully dunked many times. You captured the theme perfectly and love the art. Great job.

Developer

Thanks for playing! There is a win screen but you got to get the taste to the maximum!

Submitted(+1)

Challenge accepted, I will return to dunk again

Submitted(+1)

Unique concept, loved it :) The art is great, especially the expressions of the cup :D Well made!

Submitted(+1)

Interesting stats to track and balance as you dunk your biscuit. I seemingly wasn't able to dunk it more than once though and then nothing happened and the music stopped. Maybe I was doing something wrong. Nice entry for the jam though, it definitely felt that you were risking it for the biscuit!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing! I'll check out why it stopped after one dunk. I haven't had that error before

Submitted(+1)

I am not a tea and biscuit person but I get the game very well :D ! It always sucks when the biscuit breaks inside the cup XD. Nicely done!

Submitted(+1)

Finally a game with tea! Overall just a very charming entry goodjob

Submitted(+1)

Gotta upvote the coffee/tea dunking themed games :) nice pixel art!

Submitted(+1)

I think I managed to max out the flavor bar twice, but I’m not sure if I did it right since nothing popped up on screen to devour the cookie or anything. Sometimes it was a bit tricky to find the right angle to dive for the cookie, which got a little frustrating, but overall it was fun and the game concept is great, very well executed

Game that represents my exact struggles. Nice game!
