Game Description
Keep moving popcorn before it burns!

How does your game tie into the theme?
The player must cook and collect popcorn before it burns, but since there is a large amount of popcorn at the same time it becomes quite chaotic!

Great idea! Sound effects were really satisfying. Could totally see this being an order-based-food game. Different sizes, different toppings, sides, managing the amount of kernels coming in and out. Lot of potential!

This was a lot of fun. I love the controls!
Trying to move the popcorn and kernels around was really cool.

This is a really neat take on the theme! Nice work!

Clever use of the theme, knockin popcorn around was surprisingly satisfying and the challenge was there. I think something happened with your score textures (or maybe font?). Nice job!

Thanks! I wished I could figure out a more fun game loop with better controls but at least the particles swooshing around is fun!
You are right I noticed that issue with the font. Some characters don't appear correct on the web build for some reason but it was too late for me to fix as I didn't test the web version prior to the submission time.
