Scream Jam Version Dungeon Meshi. 

Everything else was great, but I wish they'd added a timer skip button for the cooking part. Staring at the timer endlessly after using up all the ingredients isn't exactly a pleasant experience. Still, it was pretty fun!

Ahah nice idea! I was not expecting the cooking part, but it makes sense! I was able to use the recipe book but some I didn't make any thing?! Need to try again, for sure! It is a very nice concept with a nice art! I would like to see more of the game! :)

I really like the concept and difference between the gathering and cooking scenes but I got stuck on the ingredients list, when I tried to make different recipes, the food items would randomly disappear so I wasn’t sure if I was doing anything right or wrong.

Maybe consider making some of the recipes a bit more obvious so the player knows what to combine without wasting resources. I would like to see a running animation for the chef character so his constant hover t-posing was a little awkward looking lol.

it had a fun cute vibe to it, i liked the art. as someone else mentioned there was a bug when cleaning the pot sticker bug and i couldn't use the cutting board afterwards. there is a nice concept in gathering creepy horror themed creatures. then using them in a happy setting.

A very fun little idea, unfortunately when I was cleaning the pot-sticker bug on the cutting board it disappeared and I was no longer able to use the cutting board and had to restart the game. But I love the creature designs!

The contrast between horror during the gathering and cosy during the cooking is really nice, though I think I would have made the player start in the cosy setting with fewer starting ingredients, so that we don't start right away with the scary portion (and that way, the players would know what ingredients to look for more easily during that first night). The sounds during the gathering were very spooky, and the art style is great!

"Slimy, yet Satisfying"

A pleasant surprise. The DA is cute, the concept is fun, and I have a lot of affection for the character sprite. 

But the cooking part has a few too many bugs for the game to be truly enjoyable. When I cook the large insect omelets, once the three cutting steps are complete, if I click on them again, they disappear from my inventory. I wonder if it's because it was full, I'll test it again. 

Also, it would be nice to be able to stop hunting for ingredients whenever you want, for example by returning home, because you quickly fill up your bag and 150 seconds is a long time 

Maybe there should be an OST during the hunt, but on the other hand, it would be harder to spot monsters by sound, so I understand the choice.

Actually, it was fun, just a little too clanky.
