I think you got the best cooking mechanic of the jam and also a super slick tutorial. Really appreciated you made the difficulty options so I could learn the basics in Casual diff. Recipes are so well designed that I was able to guess the steps by the drink name after a few cups. Smashing the ingredients (especially the :> pumpkin) felt very satisfying. GG!

TYSM for the kind words, I really appreciate it! I'm glad you found the difficulty slider useful as well, I almost cut it out but playtests told me otherwise.. so I'm glad I kept it in and that it was useful to you! Happy that you found the Recipes good as well haha, the names (including ingredients) are quite on the nose and I tried to keep it simple.  (like glowberries are stars becuz they glow??? and uh moon berries... is the moon lol) GLAD THEY ARE RECOGNIZABLE HAHA.

Also, thanks so much for putting my game into your collection!! It really means so much.

The gameplay loop was so satisfying, and I loved the little movement as you move your cursor around. The fairies drinking the drink was such a smart way to go about the limitation too. Very nicely done!

Developer

I'm happy you found the game fun! I'm still unsure if the fairies were a good idea or not, so I'm glad you found it good haha.

I loved your game as well! Thanks so much for the comment.

Super chill, super comfy. This would be great as a full game! The vibes are perfect and the game is very well-made.

The art and gameplay loop is so charming and fun and cute, the fairy thing being the limitation worked really well with the cafe theme of the game too, which was honestly very fun to see! The polish is really good, i didn't find bugs and the tutorial  helped me out a lot. The controls are very intuitive. Good job!!!

Developer

Thanks so much for the comment! I'm so happy the tutorial could help and elevate your experience haha. I was seriously contemplating how much effort to put into that and it's really only thanks to the extra day that I could implement it.

Thanks for playing!! LOVE YOUR WORK AS WELL!!

You've got tons of comments already but I'll echo what they say. Amazing level of polish for two weeks, fits the theme well, really cute art (the sad face when grinding the pumpkin really got me!), and a tried and true gameplay loop that is satisfying and fun. Truly well done, I'm super super impressed! Bonus points for the incredibly detailed, effective, but also very streamlined tutorial, that is very hard to do, especially with such a short time limit, and you crushed it! The only tiny bit of feedback is that some of the UI noises are just beeps and boops, and I think with your fantasy theme you could have gone a bit more whimsical and less robotic there, but really not a big thing compared to how polished the rest of your game is.

One other thing... I really appreciate that you were honest and up front about using music and SFX from Pixabay, but there are so many composers and SFX people looking for teams for these jams that I would love to see people give the community a chance! It would create a lot more opportunities for folks in the discord to participate and also give your game something totally unique! That said, your implementation of the audio was really good and well polished.

Really enjoyed playing!

Wow! Thank you so much for the detailed feedback, I'm really grateful! 

I'm glad you enjoyed the game, I really only managed to get that tutorial done thanks to that extra day of the jam haha. I totally agree with the UI noises, to be very honest, I completely forgot about them until the last part of the jam and I just took them from my previous game. I'll be sure to update it!

On another note, I don't really understand people who hide their use from Pixabay or other sites.. it feels wrong to claim something as my own if it isn't right??

I'll definitely consider working in a team in a future jam! I wasn't too satisfied with my previous jam and I just really wanted to test my limits and see what I could do as a solo dev  (after so, so, so much group work in college/uni...) and I hope I've done well haha. 

Thanks so much for the comment, really means a lot!

Wow so much fun! Loved the game and the gameplay loop. Really reminded me of the classic Papa's flash games! And just like those games I could play this one for hours. Not only was it fun, but it controlled great.  Great work on everything!!

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed the game :)

Fun fact, papa flash games was the inspiration haha, wanted to do a kitchen at first but I quickly realized that the scope was just way too big. so dishes became drinks and everything else was simplified or streamlined so I could make the deadline.

Thanks for playing!! :)

Great gameplay loop and intuitive interactions. The tutorial arrows were really helpful too!

Developer
