Cute aesthetic, and that song is a real bop! The text was a little hard to read at the end of the level, possibly due to downscaling?

Did you work in a team?
This game was made by a team of two.
Was the resolution a challenge?
Adding text is a challenge at this resolution but we made it work!
What did you learn?
This is my first game, and first game jam, so I learned a lot! Looking forward to doing more.

I like the overall feel, good job! It's not clear what they want and what the win condition is. Maybe having multiple days and adding ingredients each days would make the complexity increase with play time. Also I would prefer if there was a line instead of waiting for people to arrive for a long time. Apart from those gameplay issues, starting the game with the front of the shop could add to the charm and for world building maybe? The music was so nice, great choice!
Music's great, visuals are nice. Wish there would've been a recipe book to look at in-game though, because as many times as people asked for Purple and I presented them with Purple made of various ingredients, I never managed the Purple they were expecting. Maybe this is why I don't actually own a cafe.
Very enjoyable game. The graphics are very charming and the music was quite enjoyable!
Once I got a handle on the gameplay, the biggest issue I had was, given how little time we have to start off with and how little we’re given for making drinks, it just feels a little unfair to be loosing 4 or 5 seconds just waiting for the next customer. Perhaps adjust it so the timer pauses after each order and only starts again when the next customer appears, perhaps. Or, I could just be really bad at the game, lol.
This is a wonderfully made game!
I’m really glad you liked it! This was the first game ever for the artist and the music was just ridiculous.
Yeah I think after the jam is done we’ll tweak the timings on the drink bonuses and the delay between customers. Definitely shouldn’t feel like an unfair loss.
Thanks for the feedback and thanks for playing!
Music is amazing :D Also a really great idea. I'm not 100% sure what I'm doing or if I'm "good" at what I'm doing but I have a lot of fun :D Good job!
Great game. Although it's kinda hard to figure out what I'm actually doing because I don't really know what kind of drink the customers are ordering and how to make it, I really like the music and the colors, the game feels very funky and energetic.
