I just wanted to eat the burger. :-(

Ranked from 24 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.
Please list any pre-made art/music/code/other assets that you used.
I produced all content of the game myself. No 3rd party-assets were used.
Majority of the assets were created during the jam, but I recycled some of my old work.
- The "Knife"-minigame is based around an ink-drawing I made a few months prior. I scanned it, did some coloring and used it as graphics.
- The music in the said minigame is a slight remix of a song I made in early 2016.
- The "Burger"-minigame originates way back to year 2004! It's based on a very simple joke-game I made back in the day. I basically reworked 98% of the stuff, but used the old one as a template.
- The outerior of the museum is a tracing of a photo I took in May 2019.
- A handful of sound effects from my previous projects was reused. (Like the walking-sounds of the character, mouseclick and some collision-sounds).
- The cloud-animation is recycled from my previous LD-entry Tabula Rasa.
- The portraits in the museum were generated by an AI (thispersondoesnotexist.com) and further manipulated by me on GIMP.
I might have missed something, but basically everything else was produced during the Jam. It was a lot of work!

This was a solo-project.
Anything you want to say to players before they play?
I guess the only thing I can say is that you're in for a ride, my friend.
The game is controlled entirely by mouse. A touchpad/trackpad is fine too, but one of the minigames might prove challenging without a proper mouse.
But don't worry, you'll still be able to beat the game.

Thank you. I enjoyed playing your game. I make such thumbnails and videos every day. :D

It’s possible that I will expand the game at some point, but probably will take quite some time.
And sadly, it’s impossible to get the burger (as of yet).
Hopefully you can sleep better now :D

Thank you, that’s really nice to hear !
Yeah, it’s possible that I’ll “expand the universe” someday.
But whatever the case, I’ll be doing stuff with similar vibes in the future, that’s for sure.

Yeah, some of my earlier games are notorious for their difficulty.
This time I intentionally made it so no player would get stuck in some masocore-trap and could see the full story.

That’s unfortunate. Were you playing the browser or desktop -build by any chance?
If the bottom of the screen was cut off, then you can’t press the buttons to advance. I was actually thinking that if some players have some screen-scaling issues, it might become a problem.
Should probably add an option to use a keystroke as a fail-safe or something.

In that case your browser was probably zoomed in.
In most browsers you can zoom in/out by CTRL and + / - or CTRL + mouse-scroll.
Cheers !
Thanks, I appreciate it !
Yeah, there are some placeholders intact, and one was actually intentional. My way of doing things is so meticulous that I tend to run out of time during Jams.
I would’ve also liked to add a more gratifying ending, but time is always short. But still, I’m quite satisfied with the result this time.
And it’s nice to hear you enjoyed the “art-exhibition!”
Haha, cool!
I tried your game. I like the experimental approach and use of real photography, something I’ve been doing myself for some time now. Also, the snowy forest felt really nostalgic and hit home since it’s a very familiar environment for me.
If you put more work into the game-play/interface-aspect in the future, your stuff’s gonna be very cool.
Keep it up !

Haha! I’ve never produced a proper music-video, but I’ve always liked the idea of doing one.
Maybe someday.
