Idea is good, audio is very good (especially for a short jam), graphics are great, gameplay is also good when you understand it (aha, I need to cut the bun!). I encountered a few bugs, like orders of only bottom bun not going through, and difficulty didn't work for me, so I couldn't get past level 1, but that's probably because I'm on holiday and stuck using the laptop's mouse pad. Overall a very good game for a short jam and a good basis for building a little indie mafia burger game if you want to :) (That mix reminded me a little bit of good ole Pizza Tycoon actually)
Oh, and cheers from two other Norwegian game devs! :D
I liked the music, it really gets me in the mood for cooking. The artstyle's great too. It was unclear to me what the controls are and how to manage the foodtruck itself (for example, ordering supplies), but after a few disappointed customers, I got it. Good job :D
Snape really liked my sandwiches....he has wierd tastes tho.
Nice art style and gameplay! I think that having new ingredients after some days is super nice but I think that each day lasts a bit too long (expecially in the first couple of days where you have just the basic 3 ingredients), I want to enjoy all the new ingredients and have the clients ask for random combinations! Overall the experience was fun and my best feature was the knife flying around the truck while I moved everything left and right.
As a side note maybe having a thrash can would have helped to manage rotten items, I made one myself using a corner of the truck hahah!
Amazing art style and concept !
Great job !
+ Hope to try our game
I love this game and it definitely deserves more ratings! I love the frantic feel of going left to right in your truck to get everything together. Once I got the hang of things it felt pretty easy, but I think that's also due to the store suddenly selling cooked patties? Idk if that's intentional or not, but I hadn't had to cook anything past day 2. The art is nice and atmospheric, and the music is super chill. Some sfx to juice things up would be the cherry on the cake, and maybe some customers asking for toasted buns or maybe varying degrees of cooking for the patties would be cool. Also the customers super freaky, like why are they coming to a food truck to get a bottom bun sandwich.
Thank you so much for playing!
And thank you for all your valuable feedback!
Cool concept, congrats!
Took me a while to learn the rules, but gameplay was pretty smooth once I got it! Only thing was that sometimes I would move my mouse to the edge of the screen and accidentally move the camera. A border or something that indicates when the camera moves would have been nice , but that's just a minor QoL preference on my part.
Also, I don't know if this was intentional, but some of the burger orders were...slightly unconventional. One of the things I had to learn was that a burger doesn't need to have a top and bottom bun, as I expected every order to require a top and bottom bun implicitly. I had a guy ask me for an upside down top bun on top of an upside down bottom bun, and another guy who literally just asked me for two pieces of lettuce. I did think it was pretty hilarious though, and besides, who am I to question the best and freshest burgers of the Musty Wagon?
I just played this game for 40 minutes by accident. Very stressful, very fun, good vibes, my boss is a bad guy. 10/10
