This game made me want cheese. But also, this king is silly. He should just summon his cheese straight onto the table instead of making it roll down the hill.

@rincs Thank you so much for playing! It was great watching your reactions, especially your delight at the gnomes saying "yay" when you jump :laughing:
Great game, super cool graphics and overall game feel !
That was entertaining. I did feel the intro was a bit long and I couldn't skip through it. Not sure if there was a key to do so. Music, animations, mood was all great!
I reeeeally like how well the art + music + sfx all sit so nicely together. For some reason the first that comes to my mind (after SkiFree) is that all of this could work well in a fast-paced bizarro re-imagining of marble madness :sweat_smile: Humor++, Mood++
That art is TERRIFYING. Such creepy gives. In a good way.
Love the vibe of this! I tried my hardest to beat this game but I found it so difficult. I swear it gets harder as you get closer and closer to the end (more obstacles spawned)! Also collecting the jams(?) was challenging as they often spawned between obstacles. Probably a skill issue on my end.
One of the most fun gameplay loops I've played this entire jam. So many controls/options of surviving. Really well thought-out game!
That was great. Amazing art, controls felt nice, and the challenge of making it to the bottom was tense without feeling too punishing when I failed the first couple of times. Nice work!
@spectra Haha thanks for your kind words, I can honest to god as the guy who programmed the whole thing tell you that it does not get harder at the end!
@keithswanger Thank you for playing!!
Scariest video game ever: I ran out of gnome butter
@ionbingo Terrifying. Thank you for playing!
Weird but oddly fun game. Finally made it to the finish line. Ironic that I have to run away from the girls — would like to see more of them.
This is a fun game, both in concept and gameplay, when I beat it the first time and the king was just a skeleton, that was really funny
Simple but effective gameplay.
Good graphics and audio.
The controls are not very intuitive, especially as it is sort of a precision game. It made the game a bit too difficult for me (although not by a lot, I still enjoyed the game).
@gamebuilder hahah yes, the original pitch was just "a crowd chasing you" but then due to limited time and weird inspirations that design was what I ended up doing!
@kyoryucomic Thank you! I chuckled a bit while drawing that, so silly! Expecially proud of the detail of the dried out olive on the cheese crown haha
@thetatautau Thanks for trying it out! Yes the controls are a bit difficult, but I'm glad you still enjoyed the game!
I don't know if I had a good ending. Very cute little rolling cheese pixies ! The sad big mouth man make me laught ^^ Capture d’écran 2024-04-21 185609.png
It was really fun playing this one, I loved the music! Its really different the whole cheese theme, but I loved it! Really stunning :))
I was uncontrollably giggling while I played this, which is (I think) exactly what was supposed to happen.
Really nice twist on "summoning." Charming everything.
This feels like a game you'd find in a cursed Sega Genesis cartridge - and I say that as a compliment, of course. Made me feel weirdly nostalgic. Maybe it was because of the developer logo screen, that somehow reminded me of the SEGA logo screen? Who knows. :thinking: In any case, both the game and the logo screen are great and I had lots of fun and that's what matters in the end.
Delightfully deranged. I loved the cheese clouds in the sky. My only gripe is that the screen aspect means that items on the leftmost side of the "track" are only visible briefly before you roll past them - in practice, about half of the jam jars scroll by too quickly for you to grab them.
Also, the big floppy-faced guys lying on the ground trying to snap up the cheese as it rolls by make me think of Joy Mutants from LISA: The Painful RPG.
I'm in love with the theme and mood of this entry. It reminds me a lot of Pizza Tower. The art style is fantastic, the gameplay is solid and the rhythm make you want to play more. Good job to the team!
I was able to reach the end but I have not flavor darn it!!

I like the vibe of this game, very fun to play and very fun and fitting sound and graphics. I found the game rather difficult. The screen scrolls too fast for me to be able to move forward and catch every jam at the same time. But maybe I am just not used to this kind of games :) I had to read the description again to find the link to the theme but it works.
@roroto-sic Hahaha that is my favourite ending though! It was fun drawing the dead version of the king based on the regular.
@valentina-shara Thank you for playing! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
@brainbetter Thank you so much! <3 It was really fun watching your playthrough, it made us really happy to watch you have so much fun!
@zirzak That's a great compliment! Really love things like that, great vibes all around!
@ryusui Thank you! I'll admit I giggled a bit when I came op with the cloud design. And yeah, we thought about that too late unfortunately and didn't dare change it and risk making things even worse. Being reminded of LISA is a great compliment! Thank you! They are actually based on the first sketch made by our programmer hahah.
@nekuake Thank you so much! Honoured to be compared to pizza tower, I'm happy you enjoyed the art and the game! Thank you so much for playing!
@madelinef Yeah it's a bit hard, and it's always difficult to balance when you play your own game and get skilled and have too little time to balance haha. Thank you for playing it though and I'm glad you enjoyed it otherwise!
Great entry, i enjoyed the game and had fun playing it! I tried to just hit start but couldnt do nothing so good idea to include that help button there.
@ilbini Did you have trouble controlling the game or was the start button not working for you?
I enjoyed playing it and appreciated the possibility of the multiple endings. The graphics are cute, matching the overall mood of the game. Honestly, it's a great job. The only flaw, in my opinion, is that the theme is a bit unrelated. Anyway, well done.
Fellow cheese connoisseur 🧀 I had fun, and enough flavor! :)
Lots of polish on this one! The art is super unique, I really like it. The music and sounds are also really well done. What an interesting game. Not sure how it relates to the theme so much, but as a game it's a ton of fun!
I definitely found it quite difficult, I think it's going to take me a few more tries to get to the castle.
Very fun game! Good job!
This was a blast to play! I have to agree with a few people in the comments that the left side of the screen is a deathtrap that dangles goodies just outside of reach. Beyond that though, the game was hilarious! Movement felt good and I always felt like there was a way to avoid all the obstacles, getting hit was my fault. Very silly game, I love it!
Amazing game!! funny art style, and soundfx. I enjoy a lot of the mechanic, weehee!! Good work guys lol.
This _easily_ wins the best humour category. Possibly best audio as well! Geez even the graphics are top notch. Really my only suggestion is that I found the controls to be a little awkward with a keyboard due to the directions not exactly matching the arrow keys. I imagine with a joystick or even touch screen with swiping it would work really well.
I love the sound and humor! Very cool take on an endless runner
Sweet and really funny. Well done.
Nice *flavor* for a jam submission. Aesthetically it's among my favorites this jam. The theme could have been represented more strongly, but I love the sense of humor!
That's some great art and music! First time round I didn't understand I had to pick up flavor, so I did it a second time now the king is happy!
Thank you all so much for the nice and useful feedback! <3
In our lives, I think we've all felt like a wheel of cheese at some point, rolling down a hill, being chased by crazed cheese connoisseurs of all sizes.
Not much to say really. Top marks. I love this. Simple concept beautifully executed. My friend Sheogorath approves!
Love the vibes of this, its so bizarre, almost feels like Katamari. The Whole experience was really charming and controlling the cheese wheel was surprising compelling due to the sloped ground. Lovely stuff :>
@nuanda79 Thank you so much! Well, I won't defend the way we chose to implement the theme, but it was fun trying to go beyond the first initial obvious choices that could fit the theme!
@ffenril Extra cheeeese!
@magnusfurcifer Thank you! I had lots of fun designing stuff once I got a feel for what things should look like!
@gonzo13 Thank you!!
@talif-moor Yeah... It's unfortunate we didn't have time to fix that (more complex than it seems due to the way obstacles and jam are placed). Thank you for playing!
@kamizenki Thank you so much for playing!
@edj99 Thank you so much, that makes me really happy to hear! Yeah, I agree the controls can be a bit difficult to handle! (and they were even harder at first lol)
@benjiehotwheels @jk5000 Thank you!
@sweetwizzle Thank you so much, that makes me so happy to hear <3 I had lots of fun drawing all the weird and colorful things!
@jerrre Thank you so much! Long live the king! :cheese:
@smidgens Indeed we have... It's a hard life! Thank you so much for the kind words, and thank your friend as well from us!
@thx Thank you!! It was really interesting designing a game with this perspective! Also, I am a huge fan of Katamari and the king was heavily inspired by the King of Cosmos!
Hi, thanks for stopping by, you saw me playing on the stream :)
It was fun and humorous, a bit tough though :)
I liked the isometric camera!
Also the music and sound effects were great and matching the mood!
And the help section was also very polished.
Thank you for stopping by!
@stanov Thanks for playing! :thumbsup:
That is a great game. I was vibing to the incredible music the whole time.
Ok, this is a very cool game. A bit too hard for me ^^ but it is polished and the pixelart is great! Good job!
great art!
Love the art and colors!

Yay! This game was difficult but fun. The mood was right on the point and I loved the hungry mob chasing the cheese and the guys from Attack on Titan lying on the ground just waiting to food roll in the mouth :laughing:
Controls were good and tight and when I got the rhytm of it, I begun to master the game. Still the jams spawning on the lowest corner were impossible to get so maybe the spawn area could be adjusted.
Humour was great with the pompous clothing and the accordion giving the music a classy touch. Great job!
