Wow I loved this so much. So extremely polished and I loved both the pizza phase and the driving phase!! Really fit the theme as well! I think the only thing was just I had no idea where to put the pizzas at first and it wasn't super obvious I had to throw it at the ceiling haha. But seriously so amazing and I loved all the little things I could do like drink and smoke at the restaurant too that was so funny you should make it harder to drive the more you drink. Amazing amazing submission!!!

How does your game fit the theme?
Calm pizza making with no timer, no stress, fidget toys and stuff to interact with, that leads into a delivery section that is a warzone filled with mortars, timed objectives, and clunky car controls.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Project is like 80/20 from scratch, the car scene has most of the free assets. Mostly small models, music (credited), and some code is based on existing free assets (modified).

This was great! Very polished art direction and fun mechanics. Nice having two aspects of the game as well - not only making the pizzas, but getting to deliver them amidst some chaos. The audio was a bit too quiet during the car section, and the controls were a little tricky to navigate the car, but nonetheless this was really fun!

ShelterA really nice interpretation of the theme! I feel the difference between the calm and the stressful drive a lot, well done! The only thing that could´ve been better is the text, it was really hard to read and so important for making a good pizza.
At the end it was fun to play it!

Treasure Hunterpizza is always nice =) the car driving was a little bit clunky to me and i needed a lot of time to figure out what to do with the pizzas once their done.

Tornado HuntersFun take. That city was crazy! Getting shot at while delivering pizzas. The car part felt a bit too drifty, like it would spin very easy. My favorite part was the pizza making. Great entry and atmosphere!

A Boat's JourneyWoah, what is this hellscape that you have to deliver to? I really liked the atmosphere of the pizza parlor. Lots of attention to detail in sound and environment. I was getting in the zone slapping down those pepps.
The car part, was a bit of a struggle for me. I liked the idea of delivering pizza in this insane city, but the topdown driving stuff is always such a struggle for me. Regardless, I delivered those pizzas until one of the explosions launched me into some weird corner to never get out of.
Nice job and very well put together game
The graphics were so unique and the throwing mechanics are so much fun I spent more time throwing dough throughout the restaurant than making pizza!

Rat King of NYCMan is this a good game! Maybe work a little on the driving part, it feels clunky and unresponsive to control the car, but besides that the game is a lot of fun! So impressive how much you've put in the game for such a short time!

Until the Clock Strikesthe pizza making part was super fun, but the driving segments were really difficult to control. not a huge deal tho, great game overall :]

Steven's Kinda PissedMy character's tires have to have been smoothed out to look pretty or something because if I breathe on a turning key I spin out. Wonky car controls aside, this game was honestly amazing. From the grungy chill pizza making to the frenetic rush through the war-torn streets of the most peaceful area in Brooklyn. The actual cooking part is more of a nice break from the stress of the deliveries, where the real challenge lies, accentuating the games theme of "the calm before the storm".
It's a masterpiece of a game delivered in merely a week, earning you a bonus of five stars in multiple categories.
Well done.

A Rest Long OverdueJust wow. Definitely the best game I’ve played in the jam so far, without a doubt. It was super silly and fun—really chill at the start with charming sounds and cool aesthetics, and then it turned into an intense delivery game. I loved it! The only issue I had was that I didn’t see the ingredient menu, so I made the pizzas how I thought they should be. But again, super fun and really well made. Great job!

FLOOD INCOMINGI had a blast playing this! The contrast between the calm pizza-making and the chaotic delivery really nails the theme. The low-poly visuals and small details like smoking and drinking in the pizzeria were a nice touch, adding some humor to the gameplay. I did struggle a bit with the car controls, but it didn’t take away from the fun. Great job overall—this is a solid, well-executed entry!
Wow that's alot of work and detail going into a week of work, really well done!! I'd love to see some tweaks to make the driving experience less clunky, I understand the need to make it chaotic but it kinda encroaches into frustration atm, the bombs and obstacles are already chaotic enough to deal with without having to also wrestle with myself. But all in all, a massive thumbs up for delivering this polished state of a game out the oven, great job!
