Nice work!!! The music the art very good and the game itself is very fun. Also the mechanic of having to rest is cool. The only thing is when you have no money and there's an order you don't have the ingredients it is imposible to do.

Nice job, there is a lot of challenge here, with each try i can sell more, but still hard.

Alright! so this is a time-management game with three resources. Your money, stock, and willpower. 
it was a bit difficult for me to get used to the keybindings, I could keep one hand on all the sell buttons but not on the restock buttons. Maybe cutting them down to 4 cookie sets, sold with Arrow keys and restocked with WASD would make it better? idk, but overall really liked it. I'm not sure if speed is rewarded but i still got competitive and became the fastest cookie seller in town haha

This is a cool entry and I like the concept. I think its too difficult especially for a jam game. Making it so you have to fulfill only one order at a time is frustrating because you can get stuck waiting for cookies to refill, then you might be forced to take a rest, at which point those cookies are gone and you need to wait for a refill again. The control scheme also gets in the way while playing. I think a simple mouse click would have been a better call. I am not sure that the game benefits from making the player have to think really hard about which button to press to do what they want to do. Maybe you could have given the player more control over which orders to fill and then given the customers timers so that the player needs to prioritize and keep track of customers themselves. But neat idea, I think with some tweaks this could have gone from pretty neat to really excellent. Nice job. Great art as well.

Loved the art work!! Also, really clever use of the theme and I found it so cool how the music slowed down when taking a rest, great job :))

The keybinds are kind of confusing at first, and the pace is very fast. The Art is very beautiful and the overall vibe is totally up my alley! Sadly the screen suddenly freezes and only the background image is visible.
