What a clever take on the theme — a kitchen torch, and a critic who might "torch" you! Watching the white sugar slowly turn golden under the blue flame is so satisfying, and the spoon cracking a pale one with the "TOO PALE" stamp and the chef's worried face made me laugh. And thanks for the detailed AI breakdown. One note: I didn't realize I needed to move while holding to cover the whole dish — a quick hint or a color guide for "gold" would help on the first plate. If you have a minute, I'd love your thoughts on any of my entries: Torch Duck Parade (lead a growing line of ducklings), Torch Topple (knock blocks out of a torch-lit tower) or Pop Chain (one tap to set off a chain of sparks)!

Thank you so much, that’s lovely to hear! The double meaning was exactly the idea, so I’m glad Gaston landed. And the pale-crust face is one of my favourites too.
Your note is really useful. The game does say “hold to torch” and “keep it moving!”, but I can see the second one comes too late if you hold still from the start. The little colour swatch on the order ticket is meant to show the target gold, but on the very first plate it clearly doesn’t read as a guide yet. I’ve written it down for the next update: a sweeping hint on the first plate and a clearer “this is gold” cue. Thanks for pointing it out!
I’ll gladly try your entries.
