Thanks a lot for the crash report and for playing Fry Quest :heart: :potato:
I assume you played the web version, I saw that sometimes the Godot 4 crashed the browser when itch.io frame is setting is full screen by default. I changed the setting, it shouldn't crash anymore I hope.

Cute and funny story with some nice minigames and I feel like I've also learned something :)
(Potato song gets a 10/10 from me lol)
btw spotted a tiny error:

Very cute submission and silly fun minigames, loved it <3
The visuals are nice, especially the colors. And the mouse is my absolute favorite from the whole cast :mouse:
It's a pleasant and unique story with some cool humor. Gameplay is on the easy side - I honestly found the challenge in the main menu more challenging than anything later :laughing. But this gameplay fits the overall mood of the game.
To another successful jam :wine_glass:
1. When it came to plucking things off Grandpa's head, I was sure if I was supposed to clicking, using arrow keys or something else.
2. During the flying sequence, it would have been nice to have the controls somewhere on the screen. Also, it wasn't obvious to me that I was supposed to avoid clouds.
3. Same thing was true for the laser sequence with the cat. It took me a bit to figure out what I could click on, and also where I was supposed to be getting the laser... it wasn't clear to me why getting the cat to jump off the counter wouldn't have been a success, so I ended up just clicking everything randomly.
You've made a very good game
Nice little game, had the perfect balance between story and mini games. And the story is really funny. :smiley:
I definitely loved it to play it through. :thumbsup:
PS: I thank I had a bug. When clicking the second time on 'I want to hear more', the explanation about food starts again. Or maybe it is not a bug?
Never knew I needed this, but now I finally know how the Belgian fries are properly made!
Arrows, space bar, mouse. Very elegant and cute))
(why can you crash into clouds...? they are perceived as a background...
&
too many texts)
I enjoyed the tone here and the story was pretty funny at times, I also thought using potatoes to explore the theme is pretty unique!
good entry!
Bet you a lot of fun making it :)
:D
Very beautiful and well polished game.
Congratulations!
There's a delay between the input and the moment when it passes over the arrows, which is disturbing.
Well done for this game!
Seeing Fry make it was inspirational. If he could do it then maybe there's a chance for us all...
I uploaded the music on our itch page for everyone in need of a Potato song fix: https://tobugis.itch.io/fry-quest 
Would also be nice to go back into fullscreen in HTML if you accidentally exit it.
fry is so happy just being cooked in boiling oil loool
i give this a perfect :potato: :potato: :potato: :potato: :potato:
this is such a mood ToT

The art is great, audio idem, potato puns were the best :)
I also have to give a +1 for the Linux build, I always appreciate that.
I have two criticisms though:
1. I feel like the intro was maybe a little bit too long.
2. This is how all fries are made :joy:
A fable about *Belgian* fries are made. Didn't except that.
A bit to much to read and I eventually spam click some Crowtato x Gran-tato speech (sorry)
Fun idea to create a short story with small mini games along the way. Nice job :)
Short but fun adventure about our prestigious fries, thank you for sharing this with the world, great entry!
i liked the style and the story, the characters were just adorable. the only couple of things that i wish for is maybe a shorter intro dialogue :D it would be cool to get into the action sooner and get some additional info about potatoes every time after you deal with the minigame, for example :)
i also got a bit distracted by the voice reactions like Oh YEEEAH! :D it was fun at first, but after some time got a bit too powerful, maybe...
it would also be helpful to get a bit more guidance with the laser, as at first i thought that my game was frozen. and i must say that however the game is cute, it is a bit horrifying to know that our little sweet belgian potato is waiting to be eaten x)
very cool entry!
I am so sorry about that, this is the harder mini game in the game and I do not know what is happening for you.
Do you use a mouse, a track pad or a phone?
You can skip it the worthiness challenge using the cheat code: CTRL+ALT+DOWN-ARROW, use it a few times until the you are on the next screen.

Also, I love that you included the LOTR reference! The game wouldn't be the same without it.
(Always a pleasure to see games from compatriots !)
(And also... I'll drop you a message on twitch for another topic ! :))
Nice music and song! I was wondering if you made all the sound effects yourselves as well?
Well done!
The art is pretty, you've found a really nice style. The animation bring the characters to life, and they were all very fun to get to know. I love the little voices :smile:
