How does your game follow the theme?
waves of enemies in a microwave! (Edit - Our game has a bug at the end of level 1 that makes it unplayable past Pasta :( We'll upload a fixed version on a separate page, but no need to let us know about the break. Thank you!)

Nice unique take on theme. Good visuals and animation. Music is too low and there are no sounds. It was easy for me and I only spam melee attack, no dash, no throws. I guess my old GBA castlevania experience paid off lol.

There is a minor visual bug, showing wave 13/11. Nevertheless, the gameplay was fun even if it is only 1 stage. Good work.

Thank you for your comment! 


We have noticed a few issues with volume/sound, so I appreciate you letting us know! In this build, there is both sound and music but both are too low so it's pretty hard to hear. 

We'll take your comment into account as we continue to develop our game further. Thanks for playing!

hahah I like the microwave setting, would actually love to see a full game,  a kitchen facilities rogue like, where each facility is a new level and you have different kitchen tools to use as weapos, or something, I don't know, I love rogelikes xD
the little meatballs reminds me to cuphead enemies somehow

I appreciate the care you put into your bug report! Currently this is a known bug and has been fixed in a newer patch of our game, but unfortunately we can't upload it till the jam's over (of course)! Thank you for playing regardless, and I hope you give our game another chance once the fixed version is up! I promise there's a lot more gameplay to get through ;)

Somehow I got stuck after wave 13 and I can only wait till the timer hits 0. Loved the art and great job!
