This was just delightful! It's wackily scary... or should that be scarily wacky? Or maybe both of those descriptions work?
Ah, either way you play someone. Someone who appears to be locked in a store. With an angry tub of delicious noodles hunting you down! So get your running shoes on, grab those keys and get the heck outta there before the meal makes a meal outta you!
Honestly I had a lot of fun playing this, short and sweet so far and I would absolutely love to play more. So here's hoping we do see more in the future =)
Hahaha, there will be a bit of a backstory for your character in episode 1! :D Thank you very, very much. Yes there is absolutley going to be more of this. I am currently working on it.
I just downloaded the game but none of the text/UI is loading! I watched others' gameplay so I could see to press E to get past the main menu but when i got to the next scene nothing loaded either. Can I please have help?
Ah dang it. Yeah, that is one of the bugs of the current version. :/ Basically all you have to do is press E over and over until you can move. Than you can grab items with E and throw them with the left mouse button :) You have to collect 8 red keys and bring them to the door.
Thanks a lot! :D I am working on it almost every day right now but things got a bit slower over here since a certain virus spread around. Still I am aiming for a release in april. :)
Really glad to hear it! :) Thanks a lot, I hope you are going to try out the next version as well in that case. It will have more scares and hopefully more laughs as well! :D
Hahaha, this makes me really glad to hear! :D Even though he is just a small little bowl of ramen, he still seems to manage to scare some people. I am a bit proud of him at this point. <3 Thank you a lot! :)
Dude, ramen is dope so therefore this game was dope. Was a really cool idea! Would love to see more development on it! Was too short! Also I know just posting big videos without time stamps are big annoying! So skip to 26:07 for the actual gameplay!
It absolutely was too short, I agree! :) I am currently working on the next big release for the game. It is going to be an episodic game and I pretty much improve on everything. Evreythiiiing! :D Thanks a lot for making and sharing the video! <3
Thanks a lot! :D Absolutely going to happen! I reworked the entire shop for the first actual release of the first episode. It might still take a bit but it is not that far off anymore <3
Loved this lil game! It did make me scream when he got me each time. Who knew that an ominous squeaker toy coming at you rapidly would actually scare me, great job!
If I might add two questions: Why is he kind of adorable and kind of murderous at the same time? ...and would a real life plushy of him be the same? D: Thanks a lot for the video by the way! :)
For the first question, I don't know. Perhaps he's avenging some great crimes against ramen kind. Personally, I think eating dehydrated, sentient ramen-creatures might be immoral in a ramen's eyes but who knows? He's cheerfully roaming around the dry-bone graveyard of his people. So that might not be the case.
Or maybe he has noodle brain. Both are equal possibilities!
For the second... YES. He's adorable, not so much in is murder-spree face, but he's still really cute!
( And of course, any time! It was a fun game to play and I'm glad I played it! )
Oh, this almost sounds like a really interesting idea about the ingame lore. :D We will have to wait and see if it's going to go in that direction but I am a personal fan of the idea!
I guess he can be cute when he is not actively trying to murder people. :D
Tried this in the Haunted PS1 Demo Disc. What a delightful spoopy game! I didn't know light-hearted was a thing I wanted - and it looks great recorded on VHS!
I still love this whole concept of VHS Let's Plays! Now that you actually played Tasty Ramen this way, I need to rewatch it on my old SD TV. And about the light-hearted horror: Same really... Especially making it was way more fun for me than a usual horror game because I was way less concerned about making the player feel the most amount of horror and more about the overall experience of the game itself. Still... the full game will become a bit more creepy ;)
Yes make it more scary! But keep the squiky noise for when hes walking and chasing you. It adds personality! Cant wait for the full version! Keep it up!
Just played through the demo! Love the graphic style and the sounds blend so well. I also found the concept of being chased and jump scared (even though the game isn't very dark at all) by a tasty bowl of ramen hilarious.
If you're interested in guesting on our podcast to promote the game or whatever else you have going on let us know! We'd be happy to have you on.
I'm a fan of this type of game so I was more than willing to give it a shot. And I'm glad I did. This was actually fun and interesting. The demo was short but that only makes me more interested in a full version. Keep up the good work! I attached my game play video. It's the first game played in the video.
Thank you. :) Yes there is. They are both temporary tunes from https://opengameart.org/ and the files are called "stealthsteady_basic" and "taiko-drums". I have been trying to find the direct links on the page, but it somehow doesn't work for me right now :/ I quickly checked the game's credits again to see who made them:
Taiko Drums by jobro with edit by congusbongus Stealth steady basic by SouljahdeShiva
Maybe you have more luck in finding them right now :)
Thanks a lot! :) Yes, I absolutely agree. My goal with this game is it to make a colorful and bright game that still invokes certain feels of horror within the player. It seems I am on the right track! :D Thanks <3
I am currently working on the overall way the full game will look like. After that I start to work on the next demo version. :) It might still be a bit before I release the next version though. :( Sorry.
Thanks a lot! To be fully honest, I am really surprised with how many people actually enjoy the game. I just thought it was a fun little idea but in the end maybe not that great. However, now it seems that people actually enjoy what they saw. You have no idea how much this motivates me to make this a full game! :)

The Game Finally Worked! And I Had So Much Fun But There Is Too Much Pixels So Can You Make A Option To Turn It Off Or Just Lower The Pixels?
Glad to hear and thanks! :) I was planing on a feature like this, I just didn't have enough time. From Episode 1 on I will include it.
I just downloaded the game but none of the text/UI is loading! I watched others' gameplay so I could see to press E to get past the main menu but when i got to the next scene nothing loaded either. Can I please have help?
Ah dang it. Yeah, that is one of the bugs of the current version. :/ Basically all you have to do is press E over and over until you can move. Than you can grab items with E and throw them with the left mouse button :) You have to collect 8 red keys and bring them to the door.
Thanks! hope it gets fixed soon :/ looking forward to playing though

We gave it a shot on our stream and hooo boy. We were very stressed out and had a lot of fun, which means I think you really nailed it!
Hahaha, this makes me really glad to hear! :D Even though he is just a small little bowl of ramen, he still seems to manage to scare some people. I am a bit proud of him at this point. <3 Thank you a lot! :)

Hey I Found Your Game On The Popular Page!
Yea it hold onto there for some time! :) That was pretty cool, hope to get it on there again soon.
A short buy sweet stealth/chase based horror game. Fun for a demo, looking forward to a full release. Game footage starts at 22:26.
Thanks a lot! :) And thanks for checking out the haunted ps1 demo disc in general <3
Awesome Game dude i love how cute the chase scene in this game i made a short horror Gameplay about u can check it out here :)
Thanks a lot for the video! :) I try to make him a bit cuter but also scarier in the final game.
very good game
please visit my gameplay videoThank you! :) I agree: check out the video.
Thanks I appreciate it
Loved this lil game! It did make me scream when he got me each time. Who knew that an ominous squeaker toy coming at you rapidly would actually scare me, great job!
Right? Still don't understand what makes it scary, but I am happy that it sometimes does! :D Thanks.
I LOVE THIS GAME! It is funny. I don't understand why is it under horror games, but its still ok. I hope to see more games like this in the future!
btw here is my video:
Thanks a lot! :D The "horror" parts come mainly from the horrible bugs! ;)
I gave this game a quick play and was pleasantly surprised by how scary it managed to be.
To be fully honest with you, I still don't get how it manages to actually be scary from time to time but I am just happy that it is :D
Also thanks for the video! <3
this game was an exsperience and i cant wait for future projects from this team
Thanks a lot! :) The next project I am working on is the full version of this game.
Really funny game. He caught me off guard the first time.
His trick is that he is very small so he can sneak up on people it seems.
Thanks for the video! :)
It was foolish of me to chase the corrupted Ramen Boy but the bigger question is, how on earth did I survive?
YOUTUBER: Maya, The Bubble E1
If I might add two questions: Why is he kind of adorable and kind of murderous at the same time? ...and would a real life plushy of him be the same? D:

Fun little game! I love horror games like this where cute and characters are the monsters.
Me too honestly. I find it just a little bit more interesting to make and maybe play if it's a good game... so not sure about mine here :)
That was super Fun! Thank you! Made you a lil video:
Nah, thank you for making a video about it! :) Really appreciate it.
<3
make a bigger space the market was too small for a chase and because of that it was difficult
I agree, it needs to have a bigger space. The next version will have a bigger level :)
This game was a lot of fun I played it on the Haunted PS1 Demo Disk and thought i'd say hi here. Keep up the great work!
Thank you very much. :)
Hilarious and fun game. The art style was really neat!
Thanks a lot! :) And thanks for the video.
I have a question, did you make your own ps1 shader?
No, I am not good enough with shaders for something that cool. I used some from the Internet. :)
What a cute little creature! Can't wait to see what you bring to the table if youre actually making a full game!
Thank you. :) Well one thing I really want, is to make the full version a bit more scary. Also a bit more funny... but a bit more scary as well.
Yes make it more scary! But keep the squiky noise for when hes walking and chasing you. It adds personality! Cant wait for the full version! Keep it up!
Absolutely! The squeaky feet are important for gameplay and character. :D They stay. Also thank you very much! <3
Just played through the demo! Love the graphic style and the sounds blend so well. I also found the concept of being chased and jump scared (even though the game isn't very dark at all) by a tasty bowl of ramen hilarious.

Yes absolutely. I would love be a guest on your podcast. :)
Awesome! Send an email over to nerdssip@gmail.com when you can :)

Thanks a lot! :) I am doing my best to make the full version as good as possible and maybe even a bit mor quirky and scary.
So goood man
Thanks. <3
This is a really good demo! I'd love to get this as a full game.
Is there any way to hear the music for the game? I know it's 2 tracks but I love listening to video game music.
Thank you. :)
Yes there is. They are both temporary tunes from https://opengameart.org/ and the files are called "stealthsteady_basic" and "taiko-drums".

Loved this game! A game doesn't need to be dark and scary to be suspenseful and fun! Well done!
Thanks a lot! :) Yes, I absolutely agree. My goal with this game is it to make a colorful and bright game that still invokes certain feels of horror within the player. It seems I am on the right track! :D Thanks <3
I for one can't wait and hope you make a full game! Its so dang cute yet scary "ahhh noodles!!"
Thanks a lot! :) Yes I am absolutely going to make this a full game. It just needs a bit of time.
Gosh, im so happy to hear that *fan girl screams*
Made a video
Thanks a lot! :D
Siactro When Is The Update?
I am currently working on the overall way the full game will look like. After that I start to work on the next demo version. :) It might still be a bit before I release the next version though. :( Sorry.
Its ok
Played this one in a compilation video of mine, didn't expect to enjoy it this much!
Thanks a lot! To be fully honest, I am really surprised with how many people actually enjoy the game. I just thought it was a fun little idea but in the end maybe not that great. However, now it seems that people actually enjoy what they saw. You have no idea how much this motivates me to make this a full game! :)
Much love on the reply, keep doing what you're doing!
Silly game but fun! Starts at 8:59 in the video :)
Oh sweet! Thanks a lot! :)
