I'm no cooking game fan, but this does seem like the sort of game a fan of that genre would be into. The music is fun and whimsical with the art making a similar impression. The controls are snappy and responsive and giving the player the ability to set controls is a great addition. My only real issue was that my dice kept falling into the ocean. I also, personally, don't enjoy random chance playing a major factor in my success when I'm on a time limit. This is because I often ended up rerolling a whole bunch of times to get the right ingredients which slowed down gameplay making the time limit frustrating. Perhaps more hardcore and experienced fans of this genre could keep up, but I wasn't really doing too well because of those factors.

I'm glad you enjoyed the art, music and controls! The dice falling into the ocean was definitely an issue that would have been good to fix.
Technically the die rolls weren't random chance. They did actually take whichever value they landed face up on, so it's possible to shove a die to the correct side and get exactly what you want. It's a pain, but it's possible.
Anyway, thank you for the feedback!
