Really great art. Weird, short story but I love the diary entry at the end, such a good way to help the player parse different playthroughs in a meaningful way. Totally going to steal that one day.

after the image of the cow loaded, i couldn't go further :/ tried again with the chicken, but no. maybe it's a scrolling issue of Gamejolt?

A neat entry, nice job.

lol, really weird and fun game.

Found a bug though, if you keep waiting for the burger, you still get the text "-1 minutes left" "-2 minutes left" :P

You've made me craving for burger. I'm not kidding...

This is usually just me (or im just really tired), but I wish you had less distracting music

I gave thanks to my veggie burger with lard. Sounds pretty good, actually.

I also think this is a great piece of art. Very well written. I like the music, too! This reviewer does not complain.

Thanks everyone for the positive feedback.

Thanks for letting me know about the scrolling on Game Jolt, pythong. I've discovered that if I set Chrome to view the page at over 100% it has this problem, which is annoying.

Ferraware, I should have done the timer so it counts up, rather than down - it's good that you made sure your burger was properly cooked though. ;-)

Thanks for the comment about the music, monkeybit29. I wasn't sure players would be into it, so I also included the ability to turn it off in the game via the player console.

Nice well made story! got me to question life and most of the things we take for granted ... specially a good burger :)

On gamejolt I cannot progress after ordering my first burger. I also waited for 2 hours hoping for something else to happen before I ordered my food lol. 'You don't have time to complain. You only have -123 minutes left for lunch.'Which meant I was 2 hours late for work. Oh well. The burger tasted nice anyway.

Weird but playful, I like it!

Good work, nice graphics and an interesting plot. I find these text based games very enjoyable, especially after playing more interactive games.

Wierd and really great.

Very surreal story and the audio definitely helped. It was very comical especially that the shape shifting bit involved a chicken burger. It felt like it was shoe horned in just to satisfy the theme, but that definitely wasn't a bad thing. It just made the story more hilarious. (Which you might have been going for) Great job! Thank you for making this :)

Interesting entry! I couldn't get the game to scroll at first, but it worked with the middle mouse button.

cptalbertwesker 2016-04-26 21:05

I enjoyed going into the minus numbers as I patiently waited for my food to be made, moral of the story, patience gets you nowhere! :D

hjalte500 2016-04-29 21:12

Oh my that was hilarious. The way you admire the burger is just great!

Anyways great music, art was neato yeah good job!

Amazing game! I won't be able to look at the burgers the same way anymore

rock-eaters 2016-05-01 07:17
