I think that there is something wrong in the link
Please check again :) Think you for telling me!
Not good feedback on moving. Nice art ssolution
Simple lowpoly art looks good, but game objectives are hard to understand even though I played Overcooked (which I assume this is an inspiration for your game). Also the controls are laggy and sometimes the commands don't even work (I think). I think it needs a bit more polish to be a fun experience.
Sorry, but I think this is a pure clone of Overcooked, graphics are fine, the game is a little bit laggy, good coop and vs mode (same as in overcooked) No guides for recipes(or purely explained). But it's good but it's clone. Good Luck :)
Very good art style. I don't how the game relates to the theme though. I tried the single player option only and I tried it multiple times but never served anything to the customers, not even a single cup. After some retries, I finally made a cup of coffee (harder than real life though) but there was no one there to drink it T_T So I decided to use my new knowledge in my next retry but... I forget how I did it in the first place :( I will try the multiplayer later if I ever meet a friend in real life.
I uploaded my gameplay of this game on youtube, you can find it here

Thanks for being part of the stream :)
@togis: Thank you very much for playing it! Your work is awesome :)
@all: Thank you all for your feedback. It helps me a lot to be a better gamedeveloper! I really appreciate it.
My first take away is: I missed a crucial point: Telling the gamer **what** and **how** to do things in the game. For the next ludum dare, i will make it a key point in developing the next game. In the next weeks i will improve the usability of this game, so i can teach myself how i can accomplish that.
In the meantime i will provide you a little guide in the description.
Nice take on the theme, it mixes two things I really like: time management games and coffe! Sadly having to hit shift 5 times in a row to mill the coffee beans just constantly popped the message for activating the sticky keys...:/
I think this game could be improved upon if you keep working on it, but at the moment I think there is a lot you could make better. Overall it was pretty fun. Good Job
Nice game, though obviously heavily inspired by Overcooked. The one thing you should consider though - don't put an action that is frequently required on shift key, especially if you should press it many times in a row.
Good game inspired by overcooked, nice art :) Even with the explanatory gif I did not managed to make one good cup of coffee but I do not know if it is a bug or if I played it wrong. Nice work anyway
Solid game, although heavily inspired by Overcooked as some of the other commenters already said. The controls are a little wonky and the game is pretty unforgiving when doing mistakes (e.g. you don't seem to be able to fill a cup if it's not in front of a customer). Coop was pretty nice.
The directions in the description were a little useful, but the game is still hard to learn without a full tutorial. The music was definitely good.
