An absolutely infuriating single-player experience: well done!
This is the kind of game that makes me want to have more than just my hands on the keyboard -- having to catch the food just killed me. Maybe consider having a small number of allowable "mistakes" for each mini-game, or an overall "customer satisfaction" slider that degrades as you fail in any mini-game: main thing to do there would be to make sure to balance it such that a player couldn't just let one game fall by the wayside and keep rolling on the strength of their performance in the others.
But with that said, y'all made an excellent game here. Great job!
Great concept! We want to try again and again and again. Maybe for some challenges, the control deserves to be more flashy, sometimes we don't understand which key it is.
Good job !
Thanks so much, we found that the game could get quite addicting whilst we were playtesting it. This is a really good sign! We're glad you enjoyed it. That's some good feedback, and if we continue to work on this game we're defintitely going to take this into account.
Very fun and manic, I like the minifames are different each time
Thanks, we wanted to add some more minigames so that the game always felt fresh, but there's only so much you can do in 48 hours! We're really glad you enjoyed it.
This is so good!
Thanks so much, we're really glad you liked it :)
love how all the tasks would stack up!
Thanks so much! We were really trying to go for the out of control theme in the gameplay. Great game by the way, it was a lot of fun!
I really liked the art! I think I would have found it more engaging if the tasks were working towards a goal
Thanks so much, we're really happy with how the art turned out and we're glad you liked it. That's an interesting idea, and if we were to continue working on this we'd definitely consider it!
Lol, it's a cute game with charming concept.I had so much fun in this game.And I can't stop playing this game. Well done.
Thank you! We appreciate your feedback and glad you liked it.
I like games like this, as trying to do several things at once is something I am absolutely horrendous at! Having that pointed out by a collection of restaurant-running minigames is definitely my kind of vibe. I will say a couple of times that I swear I got the seasoning right, but didn't quite grasp the visual cue of the colour-coded letters. I place that blame on myself not paying attention, though, as I tried to play the game by memorising the keys I had to use and relying on peripheral vision. I personally find it the most rough when you get a combo like waiting tables, apple-balancing, and pan catching, as they're all minigames that basically require full attention. Whereas whenever carrot chopping came up? Breathed a sigh of relief. Nice work!
Thanks! Yes, if we had more time we would have most likely focused on balancing as certain combinations of the minigames are certainly more challenging that others. Its not just you who has had trouble with the seasoning and we have realised that we can improve on the interface to better instruct players. Currently, the colour of the 's' and 'p' on the salt and pepper grinders indicates either season (green) or don't season (red). Glad to hear you enjoyed however!
This is a really cool game! I love the pat your head and rub your tummy style game mechanics. It also has a small local co-op element as you can have multiple people on the same keyboard doing different jobs although this does make things considerably easier. All in all this is an excellent submission and definitely made me feel out of control!
Thanks for your feedback. Yes, we hope that the intense feeling of being out of control is something that everyone who plays can agree on!
