The game turned out pretty cool! The moment I realized I could adjust my flying direction to burn less, my brain exploded π
Itβs not always clear what to deliver and where β maybe having specific tasks like in Overcooked would help. But overall, it was a fun experience!

Great game! It took me a little while to figure some things out, but as soon as I understand everything that was going on I had a blast. The character design is cool and the added layer of controlling the drill to gather ingredients is fun. I played it alone but I can see it being great to play with friends. It's also easy to see how this game could expand into a final product. Great job and congrats on finishing your game!

@basekeet Thank you for your wonderful comment! There are some little things to adjust, like you said the readability of what to do and how to use the ingredients. But yeah I understand you it takes a little bit of tries. Thanks for trying out the game it means a lot !
@gquibao Thank you for your amazing comment! And thanks for the compliment on the chara design, i even made their voice myself :) it was funny. You can indeed play with a friend locally if you have some controllers. It's even more fun since you can bump into each other, it was the idea. Also about to figure out things out, yeah it's a bit rough on the edges but will see if we can manage to make that better or not, thanks for the feedback and about your wish to see it expanded into a final product, that means a lot! :)
Recently played a similar game on Nintendo with my wife (forgot the title) β and it drove her crazy! π Games like this really stir up emotions and stay memorable. Excellent work!

What a cute little game! My girlfriend and I had a ton of fun running around on this one!
Interesting idea, but I think there needs to be an in-game tutorial as it's not obvious what to do. Otherwise it's funny enough
The idea is really cool, made me think about a mix between overcooked and lovers in a dangerous space. It feels that it's definitely done to play with friends =) Music is cool as much as the graphics are ! Good job guys =)
nice little mix of a drilling game and a cooking sim!

@salaro Thank you for your wonderful comment, means a lot! I'm happy you enjoyed this little jam game!
@ronalchue Thank you for your comment, you are definitely right it's a bit rough on the edges. Will take your advice !
@monogatari Thank you for your comment, and yeah it's inspired by those game. Definitely had fun making it! :) The music is credited to HATMIX there is a link on the description it wasn't us who have done it, but thank you ! :)
@dominic-graziano Thank you for your comment and your time trying the game, means a lot !
I like the idea It's really cool and the game was executed pretty well. I wish people were playing at the same time as me but that's not something you can change so good job :)

This is definitely difficult to manage solo, I think adding an extra walking path for solo would help, there's just too much space to traverse to get everywhere.

@jamesgames1000 thank you for trying the game! I appreciate your comment. We couldn't introduce an AI to manipulate other players unfortunately, that would have been something more interesting indeed
@wolfier thank you for your feedback! I agree we should have done better in designing space. Originally we wanted to have more layouts but couldn't implement it but your comment is valuable feedback, thanks !

amazing artstyle!.
I know the music wasn't yours, but it was a good fun pick to match the gameplay style and graphics. I mainly wish there was a tutorial or the game teaches you how to play by playing it, it took a minute to understand what was going on. The mood/environment is this games strongest feature, the dog creature is unique. And I imagine it'd be a lot of fun with 3 other players, I kinda feel like I shouldn't review it since I couldn't experience it as intended but I gave a score that's fair I think, imagining having friends to play with lol.

@eugenik Thank you very much! I take that personally since I did the art! :)
@beeb-gamecodecompany it's fine buddy! I already thank you for playing and writing a cool feedback, that's very nice of you. And fair is fair! I'm glad you liked the doggy and music pick. I had a lot of fun creating the characters :)
I love the little sounds the robot makes xD It's a nice take on an overcooked-type game, haven't tried it with more players, might be more fun. But at the moment I didn't see a lot to do, other than the meat-stuffed potato (?) and the money didn't do anything either (I'm assuming it was score). Would be cool to see this further expanded. Great work!

@mateusboga Thanks Mateus for having tried out the game! Once again a pleasure to see you doing the jam ! Also thanks for your comment and your appreciation towards the robot, I made the voice myself, which was pretty funny ! We couldn't implement all the gamification like using the money or expanding the list of the recipes, but definitely it's the idea you summarized. Thanks again for trying it !
cute little game! i think just some quick tutorial/help bubbles might help with learning how to play this game!

This is awesome! I love the idea of being on a spaceship together with my mates, cruising through planets and cooking jacket potatoes π₯ Definitely captured the panicky and mad vibe of overcooked, with a twist :) The music is nice and catchy!
