I have failed the great Pizzazz, and my first real job was pizza maker...

Great game! I almost made it to the end and it made me so hungry :) Too bad that there is no music, but still very funny and challenging.

@blmbop Thank you! And yea, I don't have any audio programs to make music, and since I was already starting Unity from zero, adding another program to learn so soon would have been too much! Maybe next time now that I have Unity in my belt! :smile:

@alina-baybulatova No no, thank **you**, friend! :smile:

@kirby Thank you! :smile: The art, uh, does its job I suppose! Glad you liked nonetheless! :slight_smile:

What a take on the theme! :pizza:

I found myself hooked into it instantly. :v:

My feedback: - Clean controls - Good tutorial (+1 for making it skippable) - Hilarious premise with the God of Pizzazz (it definitely SHOULD be the plural of pizza) - Relaxing experience - Fun and increasingly challenging gameplay loop

Some ideas to make it better if you want keep developing the game: - Grab some sound effects (can be done in minutes with [sfxr](https://www.drpetter.se/project_sfxr.html) for example) - Make important UI elements stand out a bit more (e.g. the oven countdown and slot information)

Anyways, thanks for the experience I absolutely loved it! :smile:

Very well polished, and I like this kind of humour :D Experience very much apreciated (Even though Art and SFx, and VFx are not present)

Very nice! I am a huge fan of overcooked, so this is right up my alley. Love the writing, it sets the tone well, and there's a fair amount of depth for a jam game! Great work!

A pippin' hot time management game.

I'm a sucker for word puns, so of course I needed to check out something with the word *Dishpair* on it. Saying it just puts a smile on my face.

Dishpair.

Heh.

Anyhow, what can be said about this entry? I'd say that, despite it's simple presentation, the core game is actually a blast to play. It has that allure that a lot of time management cooking sim games have, but with the funny weird plot and incremental mechanics tailored to the player's wants rather than needs. Thus, the game's pace is dictated solely by the player, which, in my case, felt a lot more relaxing and thrilling than cumbersome and pressurring like other games I've played before (Cook Serve Delicious 2 still haunts me. Got too difficult too fast).

So yeah, even if we account for the simple art, no sounds and some rough corners (the game even crashed on me when I opened it the first time), I'm willing to say it's one of the most fun games I've played in this jam so far. A good idea and a good execution overall!

May the great God of Pizzazz bless your day! :pizza: :whale:
