Great game, very consistent from the sound and graphic design (huge LocoRoco vibes!) to gameplay and controls!

cool game, I found that the easiest way to play is to make a vertical line out of the.. thing.. and start punshing the food as it falls

I thought this was a cute little fun game and enjoyed it. I would have suggested to make sure the mouse gets constrained to the window however as multiple times I found myself moving the mouse out of the screen into another monitor which made it a little difficult.

Good stuff! Loved the graphics, the game play got more fun as I played and the concept is really cool. My only gripe is that after a while the game becomes a bit repetitive, but I can't fault you for that given its a jam game. Great job, love it!

The game is quite fun to play! Great idea with good execution made playing very fun. Physics based games are always a treat to play. I do have an issue with the physics being very, VERY bouncy. It makes some situation very difficult. The plates/paddles provided are also varying in difficulty, which can really change the experience. Great game!

Nice dynamics and flow feel. Great graphics, best from what I played so far. A bit monotonous after a minute or two playing. Cool sounds.

P.S. And because of this game I realized I don't have a tool to unwrap rar archive and have to install it. I don't know if this is common, but maybe you losing players because of that. Maybe not, I don't know.

What an awesome game! One of the best I have played so far during this Jam. The Art is exactly my taste and idea of the game is great. The first level is a bit to easy as you can simply use the sausage as a catapult. Besides that everything is pretty good. The intro is also a nice addition. :thumbsup:

Lovely game and of pretty high quality and polish, it reminded me of Loco Roco, but it also reminded me of a game called Dizzy Panic (which none of you have probably heard of). To be honest I did find it a difficult game at first, there's just so much stuff to do and to keep track of, and you have to be really careful with the physics. Just like some others, I also did find that it's easier in some cases to turn the instrument sideways and use it to launch the food instead of balancing food on the instrument. All in all though, great job.

Thank you @wafflecomposite @souptik-datta @rogaro for playing and your kindly comments!

@0x-void-x0, actually we felt the same while testing, that's why we added instruments like ping-pong bat in the later levels :)

@sir-onionknight yeah we forgot to take the multi monitor situation into consideration, thanks for pointing it out!

@squeg-inc @raivk @vasuka @chesschaser @samdemaine @monado @henriquecanella thank you for playing :D Art-wise we were inspired by Loco Roco and Katamari Damacy yes.

@kohcepba thank you for your suggestion, we are trying to make a web build, hope it helps with people who don't have unwrap sofeware.

@thatanonoword @xschaumix thank you for your kind comments, and glad you like the different plates and the intro :)

@twospaces-sg, thank you for trying our game. For the instrument, yes we added the bamboo one and the master swords for the "launch the food" way actually:) Will check Dizzy Panic you mentioned too!

Excellent, I really enjoy the graphical style in this game, very well done! I did find myself wanting a little more variation as I played but given what you've accomplished I wont complain about what I got, very well done!

Really like this game, reminds me a little of Pikuniku with its art style and great use of physics. The last level was also pretty challenging in a good way. Nice work!

Really polished entry! Nice graphics, mechanics were simple to grasp, but it was a delicate balance to not overshoot or undershoot when flinging food around. Had fun!

Inject this into my veins. The characters are fantastic and the procedural walking is so charming. A real gem.

Nice and cute game. The idea is not too complicated, but the setting makes it great. I liked the graphics very much, it reminds me of loco roco. The design of the monsters is very chuckle. It was really fun to play. The voice acting is also very nice. Of the problems, I can only notice that a couple of times I could not raise my hands to the character, as they were stuck in him.

I love this, it feels very polished and the graphics are cute. I can't stop moving for some reason, even when I'm not pressing anything I move to the left constantly, which makes it extremely difficult to play. But I really enjoyed this game anyway.

Hey! This was so cute! I loved the graphics and sound. The intro was also really great, I appreciated having some setup before the game started. I also though the chaotic gameplay was really fun and humerous, if a bit fiddly. I think i found it so difficult to get the shapes into the monsters' mouths that whenever it happened while they had their mouths shut, it felt like the game robbed me of points. I'm not sure it needed that detail. Outside of this, however, I think the game did a great job of holding my attention. The timers were well-balanced and the game didn't overstay its welcome.

Thanks for the entry!
