Kind of like lo-fi Overcooked? :) I like that! Controls are a bit wonkey, but embed plays well in my browser. Well done!

I like the picking things up and dropping it. All be that I seem to walk on the food with my foot :D ha ha .. Sorry but I couldn't make the orders since I'm not good at these controls. But I did like the picking/up/dropping mechanic.

Haha, this game is a lot like my own entry. Great minds think alike! It's a cool game, I died the first few times as I didn't know the tan knob was my hand- it definitely makes the game more challenging but in a good way. If you continue the game after the jam, try making it so you can see what is on the plate at all times, not only if you are holding it. Sound effects are good, next step is music. Neat entry.

This takes fast food to a whole new level ;) Quite difficult to get the recipes done in time because the picking up food can be a bit unprecise sometimes, I only managed to create a few. Nonetheless, a solid entry.

Nice idea! The controls are a bit hard, since you sometimes seem to not point in the direction you are going. It was hard to understand how to play, but I managed to find it out :) The time limit is really hard in this famous restaurant ;)

Fun idea, as a lot of people have said the controls are a bit wonky considering the character can move diagonally and not turn in that direction. Very fun though, some arcadey music would go great with this!

Very fun little game. One suggestion would be to have a confirmation to put the plate in the collector or to stop it from happening automatically for the first couple seconds after the switch. I lost because I just missed the timer and put the previous food in and then just had to wait ten seconds to lose a second life because of it. The character direction seemed a bit strange but was manageable. The sound effects were nice, especially the subtle ticking of the clock. Great entry overall.

Took me a while to get exactly how to play but then I was able to deliver a few plates. Nice kitchen game made from scratch in 48 hours. Well done :)

Really took me a while to figure out when when I needed to press the spacebar and when I didn't, and the mechanic of taking food to the plate. It was fun once I figured that out, but many times the necessary tasks were physically impossible to complete within 10 seconds.

The idea definitely makes for a fun game and the setup seems like a good implementation of things, but as others have said the controls make it tough to enjoy. It confusing how to get the food onto the plate and it felt buggy for a while before I got the hang of it. The player not being able to face diagonally also felt very strange.

It might be worth it to do another pass at this and work on tightening up the controls, I think the game could really be improved without that much more investment.
