I absolutely love the mechanics of this game. Inventory management and math / logic puzzles are my jam. also this selfie cracks me up every time. only the sub-second precision needed in one or two levels was a bit fiddly. A way to open the door on the exact second would have been nice.
didn’t think about a way to open the microwave at the exact second it could be nice. Yeah I saw the ‘+’ problem like ten minutes before the end of the jam and my code was like mud xd.I’ll push a fixed game once the jams will be finished. Anyway, thx for playing!
I couldn't stop laughing, thank you so much for making a great game!
Thanks! :)
super charming, taking a picture of you're microwave and pixelating it was honestly really funny to me!
Cute little puzzle game to boot
thanks for playing!
Hey, this is a very clever approach to the jam's theme! Also, your puzzle design is veeery good, every level felt well balanced and fair. Really really great work!
thx!
This is legit such a fun lil puzzle game 10/10 would play again
Also I know it wasn't designed for it but it works pretty on a touch screen
thanks for playing! Does it work on touch screen without having to code the touch fonction?
All the moving stuff into the microvave bits work but I cant access the pause menu
woaw I didn’t know we could actually play the games on phone thanks!
This is the defnetion of peak and hidden gem
this was the most creative game so far the puzzels are soo good i spent over 30min playing the game
I love it the art its so realistic
i feel like this game have some streamer potential and makin it full game is also great too :)
Thanks a lot! I didn’t think about making it a full game since I love experiencing a lot of little idea but that could be a good idea!
This has so much creativity and personality. I love it lol. The sounds and the photos and everything are so real and so funny. I can't believe I just played a game about microwaving stuff
Xd thx!
This is a super clever game mechanic, and its paired so perfectly with the semi-realistic pixel art. I laughed when I saw the microwave reflection, but stayed for the puzzles that felt fair and balanced as they progressed.
thanks for playing! At first I wanted to erase myself to the reflection but didn’t have time and it was ugly so I kept it. And me too I was surprised when I saw my face the first time cause in my head the photo don’t took reflection but I was wrong xd
Love the graphics very realistic :P. Also it’s a great puzzle game with a unique approach to the theme :)
Thanks!
I love this game! Microwave timer as a core mechanic for puzzles is both funny and smart!
yes I was thinking about the enigma where there is 3 apple pie you have to cook. The three of them take 2h to cook. But you only have 3h to cook them all and you can only put 2 of them at the same time in the oven. But I didn’t want you to stay like 1h before the items is cooked so I took a microwave xd. Thx for playing!
Haha well done fellow microwave buddy!
thx :)
your game looks also cool! I’ll play it when I’ll be at home
Fun game with really smart puzzles! The graphics and audio are amazing, great job!
Thx!
I liked the chill vibes I got trying to figure everything out and the retro-pixel style the game had. I also liked how some of the items took up different spaces, I thought that kept things really interesting.
Nice job and congrats!
Yes at first I was going with basics items but with unique cook temperature (like 350w, 450w, 700w,…) but I figured out it was too complex so I just add size to items that would add some reflection to put them all in the microwave. Thanks for playing!
Had a lot of fun trying to figure out the best way to fit everything and make sure it all gets cooked enough! Also the artwork being photographs was enjoyable.
Thanks a lot!
*bzzzzzzzzzz*
xd
I had a good laugh. I'm putting things in a microwave and I like it, ahahahahah. Fun ideas, really.
Thx!!! :)
Whoa super cool also love the graphics :)
yea It is actually my microwave xd and all the ingredient I took a picture of mines
Nice to see another person from Belgium around xD I really enjoyed the game! It felt really good to solve the puzzles. I just wish I the timer and the time labels were a bit more precise. But it was really enjoyable anyway! Keep up the good work!
Team Belgium let's go! Yeah I didn't have a lot of time to playtest so I didn't made the best timers. Thx for playing!
LOLOL I got some good laughs with this one. Fun math puzzles and chill and silly vibes.
Thanks! (I wanted the music to be like in front of a campfire but instead you were in front of a microwave xd)
The reflection on the glass was a surprise lol. I like the puzzles. I wish there's a way to reset the level or return to menu because there are times when the microwave would stop counting down but the game does not show the fail state.
hey! thanks! you can press "P" to open the Pause menu and then you can restart. But it is my fault I realized too late that the post-it on the microwave (the 'tutorials') wasn't visible enough and that people doesn't click on them. Thx for playing!
