Very fun! Of all the games I've played & rated so far, this was the first one I really *enjoyed*. The puzzles were neither too hard nor too easy, and the game had a lot of polish.
The weak link was the graphics, but for a jam game that's perfectly reasonable. Nice job!
Pizza Time Pizzeria™ has just gained another customer, as after this experience I could not imagine getting Pizza™ from any other Pizzeria™.
The levels were really nice, gradually introducing mechanics and being decently difficult but not to the point of actively infuriating, most of them taking me 2-3 tries before the "AHA" moment kicked in.
The music was fine, but maybe it got annoying at some point, which cannot be said about that Jingle™.
The first puzzle-ish game I played in this jam, and one great way to start!
Pretty solid game, but it might be helpful to have a current level indicator. Level difficulty through levels is also pretty inconsistent, with some lower levels being harder than the higher levels.
Nice solid puzzle game! I like the animation and sound design.
Nice little puzzle, feels like a complete game that wasn't rushed :) I especially like the humor!
Wow, this is a really made puzzle game. The mechanics are simple in principle and easy digestible while still allowing for complexity! I found myself very stuck on level 7, only stumbling upon an answer; however, I don't often play puzzle games. Everything felt super well made, especially for a COMPO game! incredible job.
Haha, makes me want to order pizza from Pizza Time Pizzeria now :D Controls are simple enough, but made me use my brain for the first time in a while like that. Style is simple, but cute. Music is enjoyable to listen to. Pretty solid game. The turn signals were a bit confusing to get the hang of, but wasn't anything too bad.
What a fun game! I played way too long, but I really liked it! Some feedback:
- The level select screen is very clever. It gives an option to skip a level for reviewers to see the rest of the game - Maybe a button for "do not show again" on the little explaination cards would have been helpful. Some levels took me more than 10 attempts, and its not fun to have to close it everytime
A cute brain teaser with a catchy jingle.
Really fun, *awesome* sound design, loved the adaptive music. Mechanics are clever and well-used. My primary complaint would be that there's no way to redo a puzzle halfway through 'running' it- often I would find that I would only realize how to solve a puzzle halfway through looking at an incorrect solution, and didn't want to wait until the animation finished playing. I also often wished that my turn signal placements would save between resets, so I could build off of my previous failed solutions to get to a working one. All in all, though, that's a small complaint. This game is charming, funny, and most importantly, super fun. Great job!
I forgot to actually comment on this. This definitely needs a bit more in game instructions. For instance I couldn't figure out why clicking the turn and highlighting it and then hitting play didn't do anything. I didn't realize I had to click on the map to place it.
Other than that this is one of the highest ratings I have given for a game so far so great job!
The first thing I thought about when this theme was announced was the opening chapter of Neal Stephenson's Snow Crash, which features a pizza delivery place run by the mafia. If you don't get your pizza within half an hour, the mob boss comes to your house and makes a personal apology, and then the delivery person gets executed. I feel like this game captures some of the spirit of that.
It's an excellent puzzle game with a lot of humour. It brings the laughs and gets the noggin joggin'! Love the level ending jingle.
The only suggestion I could make is it would be nice to have an abort button for an ongoing delivery, so you don't have to wait until time runs out when it becomes clear that you're not gonna make it.
Very neat puzzle game! The game feels already very polished and the levels have a good difficulty. Really good game!
Awesome pizza-puzzle™ game! All the trademarked™ stuff was so funny, and the pizza-jingle™ when you win is the cherry on top! Nice work!
Great puzzles and mechanics here. Humor is also nice and audio was executed well. Some of the puzzles took some time to solve of which is good. It also seems as though there is some nice freedom with how you solve puzzles. Playing through this I had a good time just pressing play to see what would happen if I added nothing then making small changes to see the results so I think the mechanics you have make for some fun trial and error puzzling.
Haha nice theme tune! I like the simple graphics and gameplay, though I'm terrible at puzzle games! The music is very fitting too, and of course it's right on theme for the jam!
Fun puzzle game! Even though the mechanics were simple, some of the levels were hard enough to take a few tries, followed by an eureka-moment when the solution "clicked".
Music and sound effects fit the "silly" game theme well, and the art made the available routes and time clear to the player.
I also liked the humorous presentation, it game some extra context and fun to the puzzles.
A solid game!
