The whole old PC aesthetic is really cool. I got a bit lost during the gameplay (to be honest, I was confused about the energy system since the beginning, even with the tutorial), but after a while I started to understand it better.

This is a really cool game, I love the creative take on a clicker game. But I was pretty confused most of the time, I got the gist of it pretty quickly but I couldn't tell how many chocolate chips and dough I needed so wasn't sure why the oven worked once but didn't again even though I had 9 chips. Later figured that out luckily. Also wasn't sure of how to feed the window, I originally thought you had to use the box to send the food to it but that just sold them on me so had to make more. Once I figured all this stuff out it was a pretty cool and enjoyable game though, great job!
This is cool spin on an idle clicker. I would like to see a bit more in game guidance; I am a big fan of tutorials that masquerade as game play. After playing for a bit I am still confused about the role of "money" in the game loop. However, I do think there's some very interesting stuff here and it could be deeply engaging with some more refinement. Great work!
this is such a good idea and i LOVE the aesthetics, but i'm having such a hard time figuring out how to get it to work sobs
i can't seem to click the dough and chip buttons when they're plugged into the battery? i'm probably misunderstanding something, but i love the vibe of this a lot
good job in any case !!
i see !! i misinterpreted the action block as the battery because in the tutorial the actual battery is not visible until you move the camera around, and i didn't know i can do that :o
i like the clicking sounds :]
i feel like this could be a really interesting take for the clicker game audience, impeccable vibe
I thought the concept was really cool, but I think the execution was slow...
It took me a long time to understand how it worked properly, until I saw there was a tutorial, so... I guess it's my fault for not understanding...?
Like, I thought it was really awesome when the windows started shaking and going towards the SWALLOWING WINDOW MONSTER, but for some reason my chocolate drop window disappeared, so there was no way to feed it anymore...
Then I just started hitting the battery against the wall and it got stuck to the wall, and that was funny. It was a pretty cool game, good job :)
really interesting idea, last year i switched to linux, now i am back to windows XD
