How does the game fit the theme?
A family risks their home to open a bakery for their cat to make and sell biscuits.
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
The background music, and the oven timer were sourced from freesounds.org. The fonts I use are from fontspace.com. I use derkork's safe resource loader for saving / loading.

The art here is pretty cute! The risk in this game could be more well-developed but overall, pretty enjoyed this one. The music is also pretty good too lol
Nice game. Loved it
I love this, just wow. However, i felt for difficulty u could add other risk factor where clicking 2-3 times outside the biscuit while buttering will spoil it, something like that so that player will be in more hurdle.
That's a really good idea!
What a lovely game! I like the game. Roll it! Cut it! Haha
I felt like this guy, it was fun
Oh wow what a cute game! Enjoyed it, and lovely art and music.
Why does my biscuit have a furball in it?
I really like the simplicity of the task, it's very intuitive and well thought (I'm thinking about the tray sliding right then top when ready to bake). I'd love to see a timer in minutes, it would be easier to understand the time left to bake new biscuits.
Cute game! It's giving cooking mama vibes
Nice game!
The game is great! It does get a bit repetitive (every minute or so), but that’s understandable for a game made in just one week. Overall, really good job to you guys!
Nice voice acting, but i'd like to see more variety in mini games, than just clicking and slinding by mouse on screen.
This was super cute!! I love the small storyline comic at the start of the game and I think it fits the theme really well, I like your take on it!
As I saw other people have commented, Also would've preferred if the days were shorter or it wasn't as repetitive
Thank you!!! I think if we come back to it, we would make the days half as long, add in an upgrade system, and change up the actual gameplay steps. I think it takes too long to finish one batch of biscuits, but we didn't have a solid idea for making that shorter during the jam.
Cute Game, the comic at the beginning is so cute <3 Gets a bit repetitive, but I could see the vision for a more complex game. All the controls feel great !
Thank you! We definitely have a lot of ideas for improvements, but we ran out of time to do everything we wanted to.
Cool game. Really liked the voice acting while doing the biscuits, the comic is pretty cute as well. However, the main issue I feel this game to improve further is the repetitiveness. 3 minutes doing the same stuff is way to much. This can be improved with some upgrades. or cutting the time to something like 90 seconds for a day. I had some issues with the sliders, I would move them and it wouldn't work.
But overall, a pretty nice and cute game, with some improvements could be a very good game!!!
Thank you! Honestly, the way I landed on three minutes was by setting the required money per week based on googling average mortgage payment + average bakery rent+ average cost of ingredients, then timed myself to see how long it took me to reach the minimum. I realize now the smarter thing to do would've been to set the time to something that felt appropriate and then set the required income to something achievable, but difficult.
I haven't experienced the slider issue. What browser are you using? I'm not sure if we'll ever continue working on this project. We paused our main project to work on the jam, but if we do come back to it, I'll want to fix that.
Thank you again for the kind feedback!
Love the cutesy artwork and the game is very easy to get into! I hope you could shorten the days a little or add new gameplay elements as it gets a little repetitive but i had a lot of fun!
I originally intended to make the biscuit making game a lot different, but I ran out of time. I'm glad you had fun!
Really cute interpretation of the theme! I loved hearing the variations of the announcer voice lol. I did think it got a bit monotonous, the days last 3 min but the timer doesnt run for the cutscenes so its longer, I didnt have the patience to get to the end of the week.
Thank you for playing, I appreciate the feedback!
The comic at the beginning is very fun! I think audio for the rolling pin would make a big difference.
Thank you! I agree we should've spent more time on audio in general. It was definitely an afterthought for this project.
omg I love the comic at the beginning! it's so cute. I made 285 just in one day :D And I love how the voice is getting angrier over time :))
Thank you for playing! We honestly didn't give our voice actor any direction. We just asked for a few takes of each phrase. After we heard each take getting more and more frantic, we had to use them all. It was too funny to leave out.
