TL;DR I had come to this game with the mindset that it would be a nice little thing that I could enjoy until my cooking is done, and maybe I would also get to see some nice art/smut. Instead, I got way too invested in the story and ended up burning my chicken.
I loved it.
I will be honest and say that I came across this game after coming across the developer's newest game, "Hive Commando," and getting quite captivated by its surprising amount of lore for a /gamejam/ game. At first, I took it as it was, a nice little game made for a game jam. The gameplay was fun, super simple, and easy to understand, yet complex enough to feel rewarding. Difficulty wise, it's quite easy, I have beaten it on my first attempt, so don't except darksouls. Oh, and not to forget about the art, it is absolutely wonderful and, at least to me, super pleasing to the eyes; something about it just makes me happy, and I wish to keep looking at it. Overall, a great time was had!
But after getting both endings, I am frankly left with questions that I wish would be answered. Now, some of you would say, "My man, there are 3 scenes and some dialogue, how can you get invested in that?" and to that I tell you that it's not the quantity that matters, but the quality! I will tell you, reader. I have played triple-A games with massive budgets, countless writers, and months, if not years, of development time that have not gotten me as invested in their story as this little 20-minute game has. Call me crazy for looking too deep, but I have been left thinking about these two characters for god dam hours after playing this game, and they will most likely continue to live rent free in my head for at least 2 more weeks, if not even more.
I would love to see a follow up to this, but after reading through the comments and seeing how the developer has moved on to Hive Commando, I do not have high hopes that it will happen any time soon.

At least we know that Yuni won this fight due to her appearance in Hive Commando, but I am curious what has happened to our black and red fellow after he was left behind after the fight.
