I would really like to see this fleshed out more. As a suggestion, I would have liked more feedback on whether or not what I was doing was right. As soon as I tried something he would end up with a sad face (except for one time, but when I tried it again it made him sad :( ). Also, there seems to be a bug where if I start a new game after dying, the new game retains my previous game's weight.","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"puppetmaster","author_uid":"1001122","time":"2020-05-02T16:47:27Z","epoch":1588438047,"modified":1588438047,"text":"Harmonious design and good choice of colours.

Love the goofy little animations, and all the humour you injected into the details all over the place.\n\nGrabbing the ingredients felt really nice, and I love how they wobble back and forth.\n\nI definitely struggled to keep Hermann alive (even being a sourdough baker myself lol!) but I really enjoyed the experience.

This is why I love playing and giving feedback after game jams it's to discover unique games like this that you'd otherwise *never* get to play! Sure, it's a little rough around the edges, (the weight doesn't seem to reset between restarts) but I feel like this game taught me about culture (German culture *and* yeast culture!) and did so in an adorable way.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"HacksawUnit","author_uid":"1011949","time":"2020-05-11T22:24:15Z","epoch":1589235855,"modified":1589235855,"text":"This is an incredibly sweet little game!
