I remember my dad saying to me once "Don't drop that icecream! I will not buy you another" ... He bought me another :) fun idea only had myself to play with but enjoyed desperately trying to get to the super bonus guy!

This game would be more accessible if you allowed keyboard control for single player mode.

@a1gemmel yes that's a good idea! Sorry we didn't manage to add that!

Cool concept, nice art style. Read the tutorial, had to reload as there was no back button, same with in credits.

Couldn't see my player on the beach.. clicked everywhere and hit every key on my keyboard but couldn't seem to get any inputs.

I absolutely don't know how to move...

Interesting concept. I liked how the ice cream would melt as you tried to get to the customers. It was kinda clunky to get through the crowds, not sure if this was because they're different sizes than the player.

Fun game, though very confusing at first, cause I didn't know I needed a controller xd

I played it on my own but I wish I had another controler to test your game to its full potential. I enjoyed the changing of light and the labyrinth dev you did there. I quite like the fact that you went for a party game even if, as you said, it's not the most practical during lockdown ^^'

I think it could be improved with some gamefeel and feedback but otherwise it's already a game that I would enjoy playing for 1 or 2 runs with friends during game night.

@gnocchi thanks very much for your kind words!

Nice concept ! I was so scared when I heard the cried child lol

khud0 2020-04-22 13:04

Music fits the game very well, but ugh these child cries are awful xd

Good concept! :thumbsup: The game feels a little bit chaotic with the moving crowd but that actually make it fun. Also the art and sound make the game a bit nightmarish to me, I don't know why :sweat_smile:

Nice idea with the moving crowd, good concept, I only wished there were more variety with other stuff that could happen to help or slow you down. I guess it's also because I played alone, and it probably takes a whole different feeling in multiplayer. Good work overall!

@yoan-allibert @taldius @miklou Thanks for all the great feedback everyone!

Interesting concept, reminds me a bit of Overcooked. Since I played alone, it was missing a little something to add some challenge, like a timer or something like that, but I guess it's more meant for local multiplayer. :)
