It has ramen, it's cute, fantastic! There are a few bugs, but I think that if you develop it after the jam is concluded, it could be a slice of something special.
the game loop is pretty fun, but there's a bug that severely ruin the gameplay. sometimes, when you try to boil the noodle, it won't enter the pot no matter how many times you try. this means from that point forward, it's uncooked noodle to all my customers with is really annoying and unsatisfactory.
Beside that, a cool inclusion (if you plan to expand the game more) would be a cookbook that automatically note down the different way you could cook once you give it a try at least once and, if possible, the different reaction the customers have to the different cooked noodle you made. It would be very satisfying when you complete the cookbook as you get to see what everyone's favorite food is and all the different way you have cooked/prepare the ingredients. maybe there's even a way to prepare the ingredient in a more complex way (like cutting the tentacle first and fry it up instead cutting it to a fine paste immediately)
That was actually in the initial design doc! but we cut it unfortunately for time.
damn, that sucks, it would've made for a really cool inclusion. well as long as that weird bug with the noodle is fix I think the game is pretty fun and I would love to play it again!
