The pixel art is incredible and the presentation overall is incredible. unfortunately the game crashed (web version) when cooking. Good experience overall. Good job!

The pixel art is beautiful. I especially love the designs of the characters. Also the cooking minigames reminded of Dave the Diver which was cool!
I ran into an issue looking under a rock at the same time as it told me it was time to go home for the day and I couldn't get the rock UI to go away. That being said I enjoyed wandering around and exploring and it definitely has a vibe with that music!
Definitely an ambitious idea for a game jam. The UI went kind of haywire for me while gathering food (thousands of worms covering the screen?) which I thought might be intentional at first before it started lagging like crazy. After a restart though it seemed to go somewhat smoothly. The minimalistic pixel art and music were great, it definitely captured that post-apocalypse vibe that the game was going for. The visuals and mechanics of the cooking portion of the game was definitely the highlight for me though, so I kind of wish there was a bit more depth/emphasis on that. Overall it was a pretty vibey and chill experience though!
Love the art and vibes. Just making these assets would take up the entire jam time if I were to do it 😅😅
Awesome visuals, sound, and colour palette really sets the mood for the dystopian vibe. I got abit lost trying to make my way back home, and I had to reset after picking up a rock and being met with one million worms that froze my screen lmao. With the cooking system and the amazing visual polish its incredible that you got so much done in such a short time :)

Great visuals and sound ¦3
It's mind-blowing how you managed to build an entire cooking system in such a short time! It's a little bit rough around the corners, but it adds so much to the feeling of routine survival.
I'd like to see some goal or story progression in this world, yet that seems unreasonable to expect within the jam timelines. Hope to see more post-jam!
