More variety could have made this really interesting. Physics was a little wonky. Overall, fun, relaxing little experience.

Steak got caught on something, stretching it unnaturally and then colliding with some of the scenery and sending it into the abyss. was kinda fun.
Very nice! A little hard to play on a laptop with a trackpad, but I did manage to get some steaks on the grill. I also knocked over the radio and dropped a few steaks on the floor! Well done (pun intended!)
Cool to enjoy a nice bbq after i missed one on the weekend because of LD35. funny physics and pretty good sound - maybe you need more atmo like birds, wind and waves.
winning was "ok"
Very entertaining.
Had 8 steaks on the grill at once. Dropped one on the ground, picked it up to put it back on the grill, sent ALL of the steaks flying into the abyss.
10/10 would throw steaks on the ground again.
barbecue simulator.
Great game! I thought I had it sorted when the steak was cooked to perfection - but then I discovered that there is an endless supply of steak to cook..
I'm not sure how shapeshifting fits in (steaks being caramelized?), but still great nevertheless.
On my first try, I somehow ended up having the steak I was holding start spinning out of control, knocked over the table, and a pile of steaks started rapidly spawning onto the ground, haha!! This is pretty fun, although the controls are a bit hard to handle.
Was fun to grill a steak watching the ocean and listening to this soft and sweet music. Nice relaxation time tho (just missed the beer :p )
AAAAAGH!
That was my reaction when the physics bugged out. Cute idea, really nice graphics and music (and steak sound). I never quite understood how the fly mechanic worked.
Basically, do you remember Jurassic Park: Tresspasser? firstly somebody needs to remake that, and secondly this reminded me of it. First person grab physics are really not something that anybody has figured out, and I think that there is value in doing so.
It was a little sad that nobody was there to enjoy my steaks. That said, this is the best barbecue simulator I've ever played. It's very realistic.
I really like the mood. And trying to grill with the physics in the game easily becomes hilarious. Good job!
Btw, I would love to see this on the HTC Vive.
I think that I made quite a mess when the steaks flew all over the place...
Made me hungry xD
Can't see the connection to the theme, but with upcoming summer this is what we need :D Really relaxing.
I like the mood of this game however, I did not like the physics in this game. Also the game was a little dark. Love the sunset and the grilled textures, though.
Nice lighthearted calming game! I liked that all the objects reacted to physics, felt more lifelike. I did however accidentally set a steak perfectly vertical and it spazzed, shot out and knocked over a chair. hah. I laughed. Cool game!
Quite a relaxing flip-em-up! Felt it was quite a tenuous connection to the theme, but really enjoyed the relaxed mood.
Well done!
Pretty fun as it stands! Had a few issues wit physics like a steak that went wild, but overall pretty good use of them. I love the setting and the music fit perfectly! Also, the heat coming off the grill was awesome.
It's hard to control as it's too sensitive - but what an awesome take on shape shifting. great idea
I liked it! Whipped my meat around until the party was over.
......... phrasing.
I wish there was a negative penalty, like I am Bread. The steaks were perfectly fine after I threw them on the ground!
The steak still clean after drop it on the ground... Well same thing in real life! I wonder where my meat went after cooking it lol. I think it flew through the sea!
This was a fun game, haha. I accidentally knocked over the table, and tons of steak spawned. I got one on the dish at least! Nice job!
It was a really nice experience, very relaxing. The graphics are good and the physics need more development but it is a really nice job.
Meat. Everywhere. 5/5
haha cool, im pretty bad at cooking in the simulator, like in real life, so it fits perfect with reality
Haha loved listening to em boys sizzle. at one point stake started raining down on me. It was beautiful.
Really interesting! The graphics are good, although the physics can be a bit iffy at times. Bar that, it was very enjoyable!
Horrible application of the theme.
lol, i have my steak well done, 200% :D
Fun, quirky game!
8/10
Surprising amount of cooking games this theme.
Seems to fit all the requirements of a "simulator" game(seemingly mundane task, buggy physics that make you laugh etc.) but I like how the steak gradually changes from raw to cooked (which is where the theme points come in) and overall the game was pretty fun and enjoyable to play.
I've always wanted too not be able to kill flies eating my stuff. :P jk Nice game!
