The idea looks cool, I think the game is a bit unfair regarding difficulty. For example, the rate of the falling stuff I way to fast compared with your moving speed. The character & level art is really nice. Congrats for your entrey ;)

The mechanic has a lot of potential I had a lot of fun playing it. Graphics are really nice. Some critique: maybe add the possibility to remove the splashes using the mouse and make the stuff fall less fast.

Thank you for your feedback, We appreciate it.

The looks and the idea of the game are cool. I just feel there is no time to position the chef so he would catch layers of cake or avoid face splashes. Also stuff that somehow landed on my cake slipped away while trying to catch additional layers so I was again left with nothing. Needs some more polishing.

At the end I managed to make it to 15 layers by just standing still and my cake truly is a masterpiece! :D

HappyChef.png We realised that the movement was a bit sluggish, but we were having problems when it was faster due to the physics bugging out. Also the layers and floor splashes have different frictions based on their material. Having a jam and cream floor really slows you down. There are definitely issues we could've polished if we'd had longer. glad you liked it though, and your cake is beautiful.

this game had a lot of potential but the controls just let me down - you went for realistic movement instead of game movement - i really liked the feedback on the screen when you hit - nice try
