I think this is a little rough around the edges since I'm not exactly sure what to do and thought the physics could be frustrating, but I really think the style and gameplay is unique and I want to see more games like this :)

The style is great, I love everything being drawn on paper. Wasn't sure what I was supposed to be doing at first, but I figured out about halfway through. I'm pretty sure the intended mechanic was you're supposed to pick up food and bring it to the tables, but I didn't really have to pick up the food, I just had to walk across the restaurant spamming space bar. Another issue was that starting a new game didn't reset your progress on food and poems delivered. Overall I think the idea and presentation are great but there are just some issues with the gameplay.

Very solid for a first game jam, though

yeah, there are some major bugs

This is a super interesting idea. I'm not sure everything was working quite properly for me, but i love the concept. The art is super charming as well, keep it up! Experiences like this are such great ways to explore storytelling.

I really loved the more non-traditional (for games) art style in this game. Felt like a wholly unique experience. The idea of delivering love poems from the chef to the bartender is really fun, even if I couldn't figure out how to do so successfully! Keep making games, we need more unique stuff like this!!!

Thanks for playing, making a game people understand what to do is my next challenge

I really enjoyed the art style of it and the way he kind of stretches when you start walking got a chuckle out of me! Great job for your first game jam :D
