Love a good old pizza making game. A few critiques though; 1) Either put the tutorial in the game or underneath the game on its itch page. Opening a whole document and reading a bunch of text can be quite off-putting to some people, and not as convenient to some. 2) In game, it was a little confusing as to what pizzas I should be making, until I noticed the penguin in the top left was showing me what the needed ingredients were. At first glance, I thought it was just a food item on the ground. A speech bubble or some clearer indication of the visual instructions would be a good thing to add.
Other than that, once I figured it all out, I can say it was a very neat little game!
Neat pizza making game, definitely would be nice to include the instructions in the game itself - but the simplicity of the concept was pretty charming.
I did consider putting them in the game itself. I was trying to make the game feel more like a classic NES or SNES game where the user has to read the manual to get a backstory for the game and controls itself.
This was a lovely pizza-making game! The amount of player feedback (the sprint bar, the highlighting of what you're looking at, etc.) helps me as a player to pick up on the game's rules without necessarily needing to read the instructions. I would say that it would help to include the instructions in the game itself, but for the time frame of the jam, this was lovely!

Love the effort you put into the new employee guide booklet, very nice touch for a very cool cooking sim :)
