Art is SO cute!
Also, the gameplay is great as well, obviously very barebones right now but with a core loop as solid as this (I imagine things will get trickier as time goes on) this shows a lot of promise for something amazing!
Keep up the great work!

Very cute game, can’t wait for more! One suggestion I’d like would be a button to clear the notepad to save having to manually click the squares back to empty for new orders :slight_smile:

this was a nice idea I do like the idea that there is a bit of risk when eating food as you can over stuff yourself and the gameplay can be fun but the notepad need some work as I just did not use it and was able finish the game just fine but I love to see where this game can go.

I plan to eventually make the process of cooking dishes take time after you order them. That, however, will probably come with an increase to all the timers. Longer shifts, more time that the customers will wait, etc. I’m waiting for the game to have more substance before I commit to that because making shifts longer right now probably isn’t a good idea lol

Can you make the game compatible with the Itch app?

i really appreciate you breaking your 7 month post silence to give me this feedback because it’s a really good idea and will almost certainly be in the next update

is it original 2 weight stages + 3? or 3 total including the ones we already had?

Just got around to playing this, and I wanted to say how impressed I am at the quality in terms of visuals and content and the whole game loop itself. I look forward to see how it evolves.

You will get a notification in the game when you reach maximum weight stage.

The main character looks great! Cute, chubby, sexy, with great progression! The style is spare with details in this soft and cartoony way that works! I wish there was more thigh squish. The boobs and belly really leave them behind.

Gameplay-wise, things started both fun and easy, quickly got more challenging, and then reached a point where I was only buying the comfier seating to make the customers calm tf down but it wasn’t working*. That was frustrating until I kinda shrugged my shoulders and said “I’ll just do my best”. Customer service is like that, after all.

Cowe is a great character! Cheerful and selfish, cute and amoral - just the right guy(?) to give the players what we want. And he doubles as a mascot! 10/10 make him the game’s thumbnail.

*: The upgrade isn’t broken, but lots of customers would arrive at once near the beginning of the shift

What would that notification look like?

Brother, let me tell you, you will know when you get it. It’s a very obvious indication that you have reached the end of the content for now.
