My partner and I gave this a go and honestly, we were very much in awe of it. It nailed the retro aesthetic very well but most importantly, it did it whilst still being a fun, cute and engaging experience. I really appreciated the detail of him whistling the tune! (:
Obviously it gets a lil more spooky towards the end and I think its done pretty well, tho I have to ask - would you be interested in making a more full fledged game like this without the spooks? Or incorporates the spooks in a way that's part of the bigger gameplay? I've played and enjoyed a lot of these 'its like x but spooky' type games and they're great but yours made me realise...I think I'd genuinely just enjoy a game like this.
I guess I just want more cosy, easy going, engaging cooking games that have an animal crossing esque social sim aspect :')
Anyways, it's great as is and I'm surprised it took me so long to hear about it! I hope you go on to make more gems like this one. I'll definitely keep an eye out for your future works 馃槉
Edit: just wanted to say that we both laughed at the itchy tasty reference!
