Loved the pastel gradient vibes of this game!
Unfortunately, as others have pointed out, the ui wasn't really clear on what was clickable. Something like an outline on the cone and ice cream (in a bold highlighter color like neon green 0x00FF00 ) could really help indicate to the player that "hey, this is clickable"

well that was quick! it took me a bit to figure out that that thing was chocolate ice cream and not a nice mat, but overall this is just a fun game. I'd love to see it developped into something bigger, the combinations with 20 options would go wild i think.

Bubi's Long ShaftA shame there wasn't enough time to add more ingredients/mechanics but what is there is really polished. As others have said, some visual feedback would help a lot too, either when hovering, clicking or both. E.g. click cone and it lifts up, click ice cream and a scoop appears and goes into it
Visually it looks amazing and it's definitely one of the best looking games in the jam.

b.VR-2The 3D models are nice, but the controls were a bit hard to understand at first. Either way, good job!

Banana Tribe (Jam Version)The 3D models and the sound are really good. The mouse sensetivity made me jump a little, and it was a bit hard to understand what to click to get the correct combos, but I managed. Sadly, it ended just as I got into the groove of it.
But good potential for a chill game. Well done!

Unlikely Palsalright i finally got to play it, i got soooo confused trying to figure out how to play though cuz i was clicking on the chocolate flavour sign the whole time....... I DIDN'T NOTICE THE TRAY ON THE COUNTER AT ALL!!!! i feel like it would've been easier even just moving the tray of ice cream to the space underneath the flavours sign, you know how ice cream they have in that refrigerated space you can see through, but i'm sure that sounds tough to model. you made the models all by yourself? rather cute chibi style.

PALMACHINE CRANE-SETArt style was simply stunning!
A smoother onboarding would have helped ...took me a minute to get the controls, but once I did, it was a blast!

While I Wasn't LookingSimple and cute game! For me the music actually stopped playing at some point of the game, plus it would be nice to actually see the ice cream that you are making as a model :)

Monke_PalsVery lovely style. I am a sucker for pastell colors :D I wish there was some inidcation for the actions you do or maybe having the cone and the icecream you choose stacked where the mouse would be.

Monke Islandlovely pastel color palette! The models are super cute, as well as the minimalistic interior!
Couldn't figure out what to do for a good while until I just trial-and-errored it with the sound effects (good thing you added those!
Very short but could easily be made to go infinitely long :)

Cow Buddiesi like the art the the colors, but tutorial and indicator on what to click would go a long way

Go Monke! Go Monke! GoIt was really hard to figure out what I was supposed to do, but I can see you spent a lot of time on the art to give it a polished look! Great work!
