Ranked from 14 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

How does the game fit the theme?
You run a bakery and make cookies (almost biscuits!). Play it safe by baking slowly for steady points, or take risks by boosting ovens and tossing trays to customers. Risky moves are quicker and/or earn more points but can destroy your cookies—so it’s all about balancing safety and reward.

What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?

Solid! I had to go back to the instructions one more time to remember all the commands, but I got the hang of it. Cute music and great job on the look of the game! Please give ours a try: https://datfrozencube.itch.io/risk-it-raccoon

Cool game! Took we a while to figure it out at first but got the hang of it.

I like it! At the moment the qte seems to only matter most in the end when the timer gets low to maximize output as most of the time you can have just slightly more than enough time to cycle the 2 ovens and have the 2 preparation stations (dough flat & dough cut) be done full. Not quite beating the High score of dev's friend yet, One run I almost got 4200 if I don't mess up 2 throws lol.

Single-player Overcooked is a good idea, and the skill animation is pretty cool.

It's always fun to see when someone has made a similar game to yours. I like the special moves and the animations for them. Welcome to Kitchen Dev!

Cute game, reminds of overcooked but I liked it nontheless. The music and sounds were a really good match to the whole game vibe. Would have loved for the game to have more of a risk factor as right now it felt secondary to the game but other than that well done!

Good job. You can kinda cheese the QTE by spamming K.

Avenge that Cookie!

Good game, I played it for a few minutes and it is really fun, but I suggest doing some upgrades in the kitchen for example when you are next to the fridge the little window spawns which says click H to get dough, characters are funny the way they look but they could get some improvements. In the end, your game is really good :D.

Displaying visual hits when approaching objects was definitely on our list. Maybe it will be an improvement for the future :)
Thanks for playing our game!

An OverCooked copy but a lot less chaotic(Probably cause you’re not screaming at your friends for doing everything wrong :P) I love the risk it twist, and how the cookies just explode in your face on pressing K I would have loved a bit of variation on different kinds of cookies you could have baked or maybe decorated, but overall a fun game :)

Thanks for trying out our game! We definitely planned to have the option to decorate cookies and also have more QTE interactions with various objects in the game but the deadline came so quick :D

Thank you! Yours is so good too! :)

Managed to get 500 points. I could only get one oven working but thats probably because i drop kicked it 200 times at first. I found the controls a little hard to remember at first, but once i had finished abusing the oven i was on a roll. Good effort nice little cooking sim.
