@isogash It's definitely a button masher!
Nice job! I think a mechanic to urge players to cook more hot dogs would help a lot here, since if you want to, you could just spend all day making 4 hot dogs at a time which can be boring. Something like customer orders would add a lot since you could get more orders the longer you play and if you miss orders your score would go down.
@theloneplant Yeah I was giving some thought to a mechanic for that very reason. I had been thinking about a scoreboard at the end to show how you stack up against everyone else. Ultimately there was no time to implement it in a way I would have been happy with.
Holy this is great. Loved, loved, loved, the voice acting lol. "Ah my arthritis!" lol.
@mark-kennedy I had a lot of fun recording all of them! Thanks for that!
Very funnny, great voiceovers! Great music as well. Took me a while to figure out when to eat the hotdogs, wasn't obvious to me when they were overcooked. Had fun when I figured it out though!
Nice game :D Once you figure out that you have to press L,K,J in a row it gets super intense :D
Haha it's hilarious xD, good job. Hot dawg for preeesident!
The music and sound effects were definitely my favorite part lol, great game! Hot Dog! :D
HAHA dank meme
The music and sounds are awesome! It's very funny! Congratulations for the game! Good luck!
Nice graphics and it's funny to play. Sound remember us the arcades. Like it!
This music and all sound effet were some of the best i've heard throught this jam
You guys are all too kind!
2017-12-05 02_14_19-Hotdogs Hunger and Hand Pain by seanw265.png That was fun! I absolutly loves the sounds and the voice! One of the best ones so far! H-O-T-D-O-G WHAT DOES THAT SPELL!?! HOTDOG! :D Awesome idea!
Game is short and fun. Audio is 5/5. "arrrgh too cold!"
Very simple, but I think that's one of this game's key strengths. Though the gameplay was pretty light, everything was polished to the point where it was really fun to play! I loved the voice work especially.
The biggest change I'd make is to use a different button to start the game. In a browser, the space bar scrolls the window down in addition to starting the game. Not a big issue, just mildly annoying.
@grentacular Oof I had no idea. For me if I'm focused on the game it will start the game without scrolling the browser. Thanks for the heads up! What browser are you using?
@seanw Firefox
Dude this game is sweet! I really like how short and to the point it is, while being really funny and fun to play. I dig the multi-tasking button mashing concept too, it took me a few plays to get the hang of it! It's totally a perfect jam game, well done!
This should go straight on the tablets. You would drown in hotdogs... I mean money.
It has everything a small silly game should have. I envy your sounds :)
And yes, whatever it may sound: we should definitely do some Hotdog Jam together ;)
Such a funny and unique idea! Well executed too!
Good job!
Really love the art and audio. It really brings the game together. A bit simple but it had my hand burning a bit after a while which really fit the theme of your game. Nice work!
Wow, nice game! It really feels like a complete product. The art, music and gameplay really fit together. It is really hard to remember which button to press, which somehow fits the game. The best thing are the voiceovers, very funny!
Well done!
I had a bit of fun with this. Seemed unfortunately the arthritis was just another thing to remember to click, seemeed there was no punishment for spamming the arthritis fix button. However, still, a hod dog whackamole, how can you go wrong! Keep up the good work, good compo entry! <3
Funny, well made game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 40 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u0hdEq4T8dE
The audio and graphics were great, but I didn't really get the gameplay. There didn't seem to be any kind of restriction on mashing any of the keys.
