Fun game with nice art. Gets quite challenging in the later levels.

Very nice art! And the gameplay was simple yet polished. Also, I'd love to see him dance while fixing the machine (since it resembled dance machine :D)

Good idea haha thanks for the feed back :D

Theme and object were perfectly implemented (if it wasn't then mine also wouldn't be lmao), and the gameplay was surprisingly polished, I never felt like the controls were annoying at all, even keeping in mind the amount of buttons I had to reach for. The music and sfx was also very nice.

Though I'd have preferred if everything went a bit faster, because walking felt too slow, and I'm not too fond of the mixels, you should try to avoid those when possible.

My final rating is 5, 5, 4, 5, 5, 4

Developer

Yup, we figured too late that a dash would have been nice ! For the mixels its because we didn't find a good background so we had to recreate one but yea not too fond of it neither, we always try to avoid them

Thanks for your feedback !

Great pixel, art and sound, fit right into the theme of malfunction and the object, good idea on the minigame to fix the machine. My only issu is that at some point I couldn't serve ice cream anymore the customer woudn't take them 🤷

Developer

Thx for your feedback ! I couldn't recreate this bug, do you have more details ?

Loved the little arrow key minigame and the little sound bit for giving an order! The music is super nice too overall it was fun

The game looks really nice! The music and art are great, but using keys other than WASD for movement felt a bit confusing at first.

Sorry we had some problem with key binds and UI etc, we might patch that later, thanks for bringing it to us

Developer

It has been patched ! It should be better
