Really interesting unique mechanic with the key combinations to make the right food, and shooting to the right person. I think you did a great job on this game making something different and fun.

I love the backstory and the theme alignment - quite a novel way of interpreting that. I was ok with the control scheme - I think it could take a bit of practice to get used to which a lot of people flying through game jams to review might not have the patience for but I didn't have an issue with it. It was tricky to work out who gets what makeup of hotdog and what the impact of getting that right or wrong was, but it was still a lot of fun trying to blast out hotdogs to people. I thought the corporate take-over outcomes were really funny as well. Neat game! Good job.

Good idea, but I find the hotdog composition a bit awkward: given that you can only add the ingredients in order I would simplify and only use Q, W and E for all the parts.

A solid entry, anyway, well done!

Developer

Seems like control scheme is a bit chaotic for most people. Might be better to do that since they need to be in order (wasn't always the case since I played around with restrictions a bit). Thank for playing!

Wow, that was awesome! Great theme idea, and it was fun and rewarding to play! As others have said, it's a bit fast, but that might be a skill issue xD

Developer

No worries, seems to be a common issue. Thanks for playing!

Really interesting idea and a funny theme for the game! I struggled a bit to keep an eye on what each character wanted and make the hot dogs fast enough - maybe starting with fewer characters appearing at the beginning would help, though probably also me panic pressing buttons😆

Yeah it's a bit chaotic until you get a hang of it. Glad you liked it and thanks for playing!
