The HTML version on the ludum website doesn't work, however the download and itch.io version does so luckily I could still play this wonderful game. Visually it is amazing, especially the pixel art segment after you complete the first portion. The main character design is cute and the puzzles are engaging. I often had trouble finding out what to click and where to click but ultimately I made 3 dishes so the game was relatively clear and easy to understand. Great work overall, hope to see more from you because this was quite pleasant!

Thank you so much @serenitydev for your kind words and for taking the time to play the game! I'm glad you enjoyed the visuals and the experience. Sorry about the HTML version not working—somehow I couldn’t fix it here XD. I really appreciate your feedback regarding the clicking mechanics, and I’ll definitely keep it in mind for future improvements.

I really love the cute art style and your creativity with the cut-and-paste notes — it’s such a fun touch! I can tell you put a lot of effort into this, from the unused numeric code to the different colored grain and all the puzzle elements. I’m sure with more time, you could create even more intriguing puzzles. I was pleasantly surprised when I cracked the code and ended up in a pixel-style cooking simulator lol! You’ve got serious potential to make things even more interesting and impressive. Great job, and thanks for your entry!

I got stuck on the first level and I spent way too long not giving up haha. Is the HTML version fixed (it's what I played on)? Maybe I wasn't using the items in my inventory correctly... I could add the notes I found, but couldn't figure out how to use the other items. If you get this updated or add some more instructions I'de love to check back in and give it another go. Esthetic is very interesting! Great job on the parts that worked!
the art for this is incredible, such a cute game! i love the art style change when you get bigger as well. Obviously you know what things are missing from the game, but I like where you were heading with everything. nicely done :)

@t-pirozzini Thank you so much for playing and for the feedback! The inventory system is indeed a bit confusing, as some items were meant for the next level, but I didn't get a chance to finish all the levels, so the spoon and tomato didn't end up being used. Based on your description, I suspect you might have missed the spot to input the code? It's located at the back of the starting scene on the gray metal kitchen pipe. I’m glad you enjoyed the aesthetic, and I’ll keep improving the rest!(`・ω・)ゞ

@foursay Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm really happy you enjoyed the art style and the little silly poem XD. Feel so honored. I will definitely keep working hard on creating more puzzles. Thanks again for playing!
