How does the game fit the theme?
Can't trust this chef. Keep an eye on him.
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
All code was written from scratch.
Art assets were either specifically drawn for the game, or images that were cropped, heavily edited and then painted over.
Music was made from scratch.
Approximately half of the sound effects were recorded in house, and the rest were edited from Pixabay.

Ohhh I wanted panning in those SFXs!
But still, good innovative game.
Game is cool but gameplay takes too long. Waiting sessions are a bit boring
I think the game had a bug that all i ate was fine and i just died of hunger. Loved the visuals and it was great looking.
I was waiting for a jumpscare to happen but there was none. And was he william dafoe? becus they looked a like !
(also if you had free time , pls check out our game too )

Def a bug! let me starve our programmer.
Joking aside, we felt it pretty bare bones when we finished so your comments are very much apreciated for we will continue to develope this game after the Gamejam. And yes, my team will check it out!
It was a fantastic gaming experience! The sound design perfectly matches the eerie atmosphere—everything about it is excellent! I collapsed from hunger right at the end, so I was frantically wishing the shopkeeper would just hurry up
game is really fun!! i would love to see an update where the game gets more difficult as you go!
We're actually planning on going deeper into the mechanics and gameplay after the jam! Still sorting out the details though so no promises.
Very cool game! It has a simple but fun gameplay loop, and the sound effects are great at adding tension to the atmosphere!
Cool game! I really liked the art style!
Thank you so much!! we poured a lot of love and disgust into it. ♡
probably my favourite jam game i've played so far, simple but super fun gameplay loop and incredibly eerie atmosphere and artstyle.
... I also like when his butt gets very big for whatever reason. That's my favourite part
Happy you noticed it lol! It's a low chance to see this big dumpy you were one of the lucky few.
Great visuals i like it it made me so nervous fr
Thank you for playing it!! ♡
Cool, it’s literally a simulator with William Defoe. Rate my game too
what a great idea that is executed so well omg, I actually enjoyed it and it got a good feel to it, very well done
Thank you so much!
YOU REALLY PUT SO MUCH HARDWORK ON THIS LOVED IT!
I loved the art and atmosphere, really cool game
Thank you for playing !!
Big fan of this. The game design is self-explanatory, willem dafoe is cooking me up some bangers... One problem. I cannot figure out how to get a new dish once I finish the first one. I really tried to figure it out, but maybe I'm dumb. Clicking the existing plate or clicking the new one didn't seem to do anything.
Shove the empty plate away by holding click on the text box on the left!
My William Dafoe actualy remebered i have an oyster allergy. Cooked 10 meals whitout them straight.
Then probably got mad i havent paid for any of it and straight up decided to kill me. 16 dishes tho. Don't invite me to all you can eat.
Art was incredible. Those frying pans are so sharp. The meals itself was realy nicly done in terms of mechanics and art.
Chef's kiss
William Dafoe had to stop you lol. Thank you so much really appropriate the sweet comment!
This game is so eerie, but fits the theme so good. The visuals and sound design are also really good. This is one of the best games ive seen in this jam so far, with its unique art style and fitting theme!
Oh I'm gonna remember this one long after the jam. This one just nails the uncomfortable vibe and everything from the visuals to the sound effects is made to emphasize this feeling.
I think the hunger bar is drained just a bit too quickly. After just a few dishes I was desparate and would take anything the chef would make. Just a minor complaint.
Really good stuff here
Great visuals. Reminds me of No I'm Not A Human. Very uncomfortable and gross vibe haha. Awesome job!
Thank you! our team enjoys working on gamejams, but this time bc the artist had less time we figured we could use a production similar to No I'm Not A Human to speed up our process:) which is basically photobashing with heavy contrast, exposure and painting on top.
I LOVE the visuals so much, and the concept of having to watch this man cook as you try to quickly eat is such a fun mechanic, I really hope you guys continue with this game in any way, shape, or form. Obviously it would be better with music, but I really think this has potential!
You're right, it is better with music! Come check it out again :p
I def will! It was so fun!
I have just replayed it! Great sound design! I also love the replayablity of new allergies you have to pay attention to, my first playthrough I got bread and this time I got crab. This is honestly one of the most creative submissions in the whole jam, and it was a delight to come back to it! I have updated my rating to reflect this :)
Thank you so much! I really appriate the comments and you taking the time to play it again. You have great art in your game as well! Chef's kiss! <3
Ahhh thank you so much!!!! <3 I got my fiancee to play your game literally this morning and she loved it too! Amazing game!
