Thank you for playing! Hope you got some enjoyment from it!

I played this game while searching for unique horror games to play, and I am surprised by how this one turned out! It's short, a bit nostalgic, and dark enough to satisfy my horror craving. I am always a sucker for seeing beloved games like Cooking Mama turned into something sinister. Good job!

I appreciate the time spent in game! Thank you for playing!

This game was mediocre. Aesthetically it looks great, however playing the same two minigames gets boring, and I found myself wanting the game to end. Maybe some variety in the minigames or some horror elements, such as depicting hallucinations or psychosis during the cooking phase, might help. Not that bad, but I had higher hopes. For the gamejam however, I believe you made something great in the time you were given.

Thank you for taking the time to play! I definitely would have liked to have fleshed it out more, but I had a tight timeframe around a busy schedule and a deadline. Appreciate the feedback.

Game has a nice story build up and the realization on it as well. I wish we saw mama, but that's a minor point. Great job man.

I unsurprisingly had ideas for much more, which would have definitely involved seeing MAMA, but alas, here we are. I appreciate the time you spent in the game!

A wonderfully devious game. The horror story was simple, but so engaging- a hint of the cooking mama nostalgia mixed into a unique dish with a horrifying flavor. loved the way the meat bounced in the pan it was very satisfying.

I play your game (and a couple others) in the video below. Also you and friends can vote for your game to win best indie horror game of the month on my youtube channels community page. I'll be 3D printing a scene or monster from the winning game to gift to the games dev!

Included this in my 3 random horror game video!

For being made for a game jam this was pretty solid! Awesome creepy premise for sure with a bit of a challenge. Made a video on it.

There's a bug in the seasoning sections in which it counts some extra clicks.

Thank you so much, I appreciate the kind words! I did have to translate them but I’m assuming Google Translate is pretty good these days…
