Quest for Cake by Juutis

[raw]
made by Juutis for Ludum Dare 46 (COMPO)

Quest for Cake is a casual exploration game about love for food (especially cakes).

Guide Pepe, the dog with a neverending hunger for cakes, through a perilous neighborhood of dog-haters in his search for the greatest cake in existence. Sate his appetite with tasty sausages when cakes are not available but be careful! Pepe will eat anything in vicinity, even if it's not exactly healthy.

Me after quarantine. With a derp face, barely able to see my legs, and then dying from a bowl of vegetables. xD
Hilarious game. I enjoyed it. :)
The Camera angle was very difficult in some areas (in-between two houses for example).

Thank you for the game! It was enjoyable. I liked the low poly graphics and the dog long neck was just lovely. Firstly I was no able to find any cake, because I thoughts there were toilet papers. :D My bad, should look to HUD.

At one moment I died and was not entirely sure why - I missed some feedback about the dog shape, or what did i ate. Sometimes the angle of the camera was covering me the information.

edit: also the menu is hard to read

the music oddly made it funnier. Just played a very serious entry and after that this one made me laugh out loud. The way the dog turns hid head towards everything in anticipation to eat it is really funny

This was a really cool game. I really liked the simple graphics and how the dog would just try so hard to eat anything in its path. As said before me, a little difficult in some sections but overall really good job.

I like the low poly feel of the graphics. The background music is not bad at all (I wouldn't even consider muting it). The sound effect is very funny. Gameplay is simple yet gives me a "Untitled Goose Game" feel. Very solid entry overall.

Also the cake looks like a toilet paper roll :-)

I love the dog's sound effects. It's animation is super goofy too! Great work. It's a really large game for 48 hours!

Nice game, it's pretty funny and you put a lot of work into building the level, it's really good, a hunger bar or something would be nice though just to keep the pace of the game up.

It's an interesting challenge how you don't exactly control the dog reaching to eat stuff, just where it walks.

That is by far the funniest dog walking animation I've ever seen! The 3D world reminded me of pokemon games for some reason. The world felt rather expansive. Neat idea!

Loved the IK dog! I played quite some time and there were nice tricky areas.
Feedback: the map was quite big, maybe too big. had to backtrack because I missed some sausages and cakes (I thinkt) but died on the way back. Indicators would be nice, or have a better looping map.
Overall great job! :)

What a silly dog! Somebody should take it to see a vet! )
I didn't get all the things and accidentally went to the next level. Sad times :(
Nice shaders and models and other stuff!
