It took me a while to figure our what was happening. But once I got it... *BAMM* a metaphysical and ghostly take on the sacrificial business simulator.

Hats off to you.

oh my god, this game is cruel... like life itself 🙀

baknik 2018-12-03 04:58

Great stuff, and so dark! Well executed.

co181127 2018-12-03 15:48

It felt cruel at first, but it was like life (I don't want to eat Hamburger)

Great entry! That meat grinder sound is BRUTAL. Also am I hearing the song of storms? :wink:

mrspeaker 2018-12-03 18:28

@figglewatts - what song is it?! I heard a guy on the subway playing it and it stuck in my head. I had to go back and record it and made this dodgy version of it for the game!

figglewatts 2018-12-03 21:09

@mrspeaker It's the Song of Storms from Zelda Ocarina of Time! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43IPAGw01IY

This was cool! There didn't seem to be a score(?) but I played one round for a long while before I ran out of bodies. I really like that you need to balance the needs of the company to stay a float. Cool game!

- hmm..... - hm..... - h.....

breed them, farm them, grind them, cook them...

Soylent Green the game, interesting concept.

yrasin 2018-12-04 07:02

I always bred the two with the best stats. Got the stats up to a couple of hundreds, haha. Then I think the game broke. But very cool game!

Excellent service and succulent burgers. Well done!

derek-volker 2018-12-04 09:41

I tried to figure out, keep playing for about five minutes but didnt understand what i was supposed to do. I kept dragging them from one field and another and eventually grinding them all. Only when i saw the comment section here that @adroitconceptions 'explained' i could actually play it understanding what i was supposed to be done.

I guess a tutorial or at least a paragraph with instructions would really help. The graphics and sounds, although simple are effective in this kind of game, maybe a way to hide its dark nature.

This game is hilarious and dark :p I love the meat grinder sound!

mrspeaker 2018-12-04 17:11

@yyam and @figglewatts - here's the story of the meat grinder sound effect... a bit of hotel foley-artistry! ;)

This is awesome! Enjoyed grilling a few ... hamburgers :P

toast-toaster 2018-12-04 17:57

A real grind ;)

pantoufle 2018-12-04 17:58

Great game! I had fun making burgers!

Your interpretation of the Song of Storms made me giggle.

nkrim 2018-12-04 21:56

Very tender, very fun! Music on point, and art is just wacky enough to work. Great game!

gwinnell 2018-12-06 13:50

@figglewatts Yeah I was gonna say the same thing! haha!

gwinnell 2018-12-06 13:55

I don't think I did much to appease the steakholders, but I don't think either they or I minded either. Glad I was putting humans into the meat grinder rather than cows. A very veggie-friendly game. :cowboy: + :leaves: = :hamburger:

royur 2018-12-06 19:43

LOL when trying to find how do i get the meat. wasn't expecting that... but great game.

wugbor 2018-12-06 23:46

That got dark real quick. Great work!

dancinoman 2018-12-08 00:33

Is that Mcdonald? Cause I would not be surprised at all!

krzymsky 2018-12-08 10:05

The circle of life, fun game btw

ragnta 2018-12-08 17:49

It's a nice game, but there is no end.

kaipi 2018-12-08 19:43

It was fun to play!, the feel that i got when i realize what the meat was made from was intense xD, I enjoy playng it, it would be good to have a goal (like a number of burgers or something like that) great job!

nekonyo 2018-12-12 20:32

This game will make anybody to remember how is meat produced

firebug 2018-12-12 20:55

It took me a while to figure out how to make the meat. I came back here to this page to check if I had missed anything, haha. What a dark game, underscored by the eerie Song of Storms melody. The game manages to be cute and dark at the same time. The 'love shack' and grinder especially. The Steakholders are delighted, in any case.

bloodyorchiddc 2018-12-14 08:10

Lol, when i found that I need to put the job seeker into the grinder to produce the steak I laugh my head off. Yeah Life is sacrifice.

cigsandflowers 2018-12-14 19:03

This was really fun! it didn't have a specific goal but it was catchy, really enjoyed it and the theme was well implemented :)

arron-fowler 2018-12-15 10:32

this game was really original and fun to play i really enjoyed it

wisstopher 2018-12-18 23:03

Very original, it was one of the games that stood out the most from the ones I have played. Good job :hamburger:
