I like the platforming design, surprised you got so much done in the game Jam time.

The setting is really funny and the game is a lot of fun, impressive !

This is fucked up, but in a good way :p

It was like... confusing. But the animation menu was a nice touch

This has to be the most beautiful rendition of a giant pizza island I've ever been in. I'm not going to comment on pineapple on pizza, but I am of the school of thought that watermelon *definitely* does not belong on a pizza. The volume sliders didn't work for me, but other than that the whole thing felt rather impressive for a gamejam!

There's a lot in the game, it's really impressive how you and your team managed to do it in 72 hours :) . But, I think that if you guys worked in a smaller project, it could probably be one of the best jam entries for sure. Congratulations to you guys, I'm impressed!

the design is realy special, there are some realy good feature on the character controler, but some navigation is realy uneasy to understant (for exemple some camera movement at some dialog^^)but overall a simpatic game

The art is amazing! Really enjoyed the music and sounds too, good atmosphere as well! The platforming feels kinda clunky at times but overall good game!

This game about bricked my computer but honestly it looks amazing. I never thought I wanted to eat a video game but here we are haha. Game play is a little sticky in parts but overall this is honestly amazing for just being made in 72 hours. Great job!

The world needs more people like pepper guy. Stay chilled bro! Great game, very surprised you got all this in for the game jam. Awesome job!

The dancing pizza guy is my spirit animal, he's so cool. Thanks adding some very cool ledge-climbing, it saved me. The graphics are overall very nice. The animations are fantastic.

Really interesting art concepts! Just a few things. When I lost all my health from the floor I didn't know what to do, maybe a revive option or something. Also pressing 'q' on the keyboard opens a list of items to equip. Not sure what that is for, maybe I didn't get to the point where I need that. Thanks for the experience! :D

teshimoto 2021-10-05 00:11

@monkybusines already working on that! stay in touch

Nice game and art ! The game is quite forgiving on the platforming side, it prevented me to fall many times :) However, I eventually died, so I haven't seen the end yet.

Also, I'm glad this game dares to approach sensitive subjects such as which ingredients belong on a pizza ! :p

What a visual trip. Runs so smoothly for as good as it looks! I never found the violet box in the first part, but when I respawned I was holding it... Guess that works! Continued on after that.

teshimoto 2021-10-05 01:13

@nillard hmmm... maybe will put a sighn near the platform, thanks!

I found the game to have a great surrealist feeling but I really didn't like the constant platforming. The character feels slow and his jump is really weak, that and the vaulting animation over every single obstacle makes moving around the huge level a massive chore. I think a much higher move speed and higher jump would have made the game much more fun to traverse.

chesschaser 2021-10-05 09:34

Love it!

dinwy 2021-10-05 09:57

I like the feeling of this game. Character designs and sounds are satisfying :)

foxplayer 2021-10-05 11:59

I find this game funny, and I like the vibe of it. From the way all the characters dance to the music, to the messed up humor. The only difficulty I had with the game was how the Chili's door closed in front of me when I spent too much time walking through. All in all a very fun game that made my day better ^^

fenno-boomgaarden 2021-10-05 13:32

This game is really an impressive entry. Best 3D ludum dare entry I have seen so far

I found one spot on the vulcano where it is really hard to leave the glitchy colliders. I managed but took some time

The game is quite difficult but managable with some time. I like that, just when you get frustrated you made it. The island look so CRAZY amazing. There is even a mushroom village on there and lots of detail. Solid mechanics, for jump and run with rare glitches. Cool to play. Takes some time, I spend like an hour playing this but it was worth it. The end was a little weird, I was not able to talk to the people although in the game the !-symbol meant that. Got no food in the end (story not pushed through? Or I am dumb and missed the end :v: ) Although it is the best 3D entry I played so far, it is far from as clean and polished feeling as many 2D entries are. But I miss that a lot with the 3D entries in general (its difficult to accomplish I know)

The animations were brilliant. The dancing pizza piece... Glorious The mood was also quite nice. Everything fits together in this absurd trippy way.

Music is spot on!

the-lame-brain 2021-10-05 23:46

I put the watermelon in the box, I shoot it at the volcano, but it does not reach anywhere near the top.

Help?

teshimoto 2021-10-06 01:22

@the-lame-brain try to adjust cannon rotation

steve7411 2021-10-06 12:06

I like the character animations and behavior. This was quite fun

hotowlgirls 2021-10-06 13:32

The graphics felt unique and I feel like having a distinct player character adds a good bit to the game. Impressive that you managed to do so much in the time for a game jam, nice game overall.

What a strange game. I'm not sure the texture and lighting of the world fits my personal taste, but all of the pizza-themed models and architecture are fantastic -- just look at those totally unnecessary red onion clusters in the sky! The game settings were all set to max by default which made my computer choke until I turned them down, and the motion blur was maxed out which made =me= feel like hurling until I turned it off, but things were okay after that. The platforming was really annoying until I realized that you can't climb while holding something in your hands (d'uh) and let go of the watermelon until I needed it later.

...what kind of monster puts watermelon on their pizza???

The second watermelon was a bit tucked away so I'm glad I managed to pick it out. I had a brief moment of "oh hell no" when the second door decided to close as I approached it but breathed a sigh of relief once it opened again. I did get stuck on the ingredient-collecting section though.

Anyways, a last note, please consider us dinosaurs who are still running 4:3 or 5:4 aspect resolutions when you make your UI so that elements aren't cut off from the edges of the screen :)

super weird but cool game!! couldn't finish because once I reached the top mushrooms I fell down the pizza volcano and I got stuck (tried jumping, walking and dashing to all directions but I couldn't move) so when I had to quit the game and start from the very beginning I didn't wanted to do everything again

maybe a checkpoint selection (if discovered previously) would be a nice addition to this game, but for the rest, good job!! :smile:

itsboats 2021-10-09 03:40

Awesome characters, great gameplay, funny setting! The animations on the characters was on point (especially the skeleton and the pizza guy). I had a ton of fun going through this, the character is really satisfying to control and the ledge grab is a great addition to save the player from so many falls xD

only have a couple suggestions! -The 2nd watermelon really is easy to miss because the floor is also greenish -i got stuck towards the end when I fell down the volcano and got stuck on some colliders, but luckily I was able to dash out after a couple minutes of maneuvering :D

tailsgamedev 2021-10-11 00:42

I couldn't find the watermelon for the pepper guy, but nice game!

chillertyp 2021-10-14 08:04

How in the world did you do that in such a short time? Impressive!!
