10/10, it's okay.

Sink16 Dec 2013, 03:31

What you finished is real cool! I like the graphics you and the gameplay is fun. Too bad you ran out of time, I like it a lot.

Magdevauthor17 Dec 2013, 09:51

I finished it with mush and made it a jam entry. BOIDCAK

lekochen17 Dec 2013, 10:35

Wow, it is highly polished in all respects. Well done!

severus17 Dec 2013, 10:51

really funny game, i like it a lot

kyyrma17 Dec 2013, 10:59

ITS A GOOD GAME

moop17 Dec 2013, 11:17

Really cute main character and cool graphics in general. I liked the cutlery select screen especially.
Fun to play but the enemies felt a bit too touch.

BOID GOT KILLED :(

bodsey17 Dec 2013, 12:18

A very nice game. The only thing is the attack move which is slow and you can't really know when it will be available ; it makes fights tough.

Poupi17 Dec 2013, 12:22

Can't run the game on Windows 7 x64 :(

Tanser17 Dec 2013, 12:25

Nice game, the idea of showing the controls just amazed me. Good job. :)

Nichii17 Dec 2013, 12:29

Nice, great game, I have been looking for a real good game for a while now. Nice graphic, the audio is okay but is enough to fill in the game. By the way, I made it through most of the stages with a suck weapon only to die to a spike. Anyway, great game there buddy!

pusheax17 Dec 2013, 12:50

Enjoyed it a lot.

danbo17 Dec 2013, 13:24

Game won't launch on Win7 x64. Shame! This looks sick as fuck

mortl832417 Dec 2013, 13:28

Haha fantastic game. One of the better ones I've played. I didn't deduce my score for this, but you can crash the game at the start by pressing random buttons instead of the ones it asks you to.

adnzzzzZ17 Dec 2013, 13:36

This is pretty amazing. @o@

Magdevauthor17 Dec 2013, 15:04

If the game isn't working for you, grab the XNA redist. I added a link.

Mnemusyne17 Dec 2013, 17:44

Made by the best. I only wish it was a web game.

Fervir17 Dec 2013, 18:01

This game is amazing.
I actually had to make decisions like sacrificing a weapon upgrade to get more durability and whether or not to use my remaining hits on enemies or maybe a bomb, or perhaps just running away.

It's pretty deep and has thoughtful mechanics based on the theme.
An excellent game, great job.

pighead1017 Dec 2013, 22:14

Really fun game!

Sink17 Dec 2013, 23:30

Just played the updated version! Really cool, the graphics add so much more to the game! Also the variety in weapons is really awesome (My fav is the spoon).

Todd Luke18 Dec 2013, 00:51

excellent game dude. my favorite things were the signature mushbuh sound design and how the enemies interacted with the obstacles/traps as much as the player. you are great job!!

Christina Antoinette Neofotistou18 Dec 2013, 02:20

A roguelike!! Now THAT'S fun! Omg this is so well-made and the actions are so juicy and full of feedback! Love love love it! I'm sending this to my friends <3
Top marks, seriously!

flatgub18 Dec 2013, 03:36

Amazing!
The graphics are really stylish and the SFX remind me of a lot of lexaloffle games. I had a whole lot of fun with this game, very well polished!

Controls took some time to get used to but after that it was pretty good. Beat it with the spoon.

Mekuri18 Dec 2013, 08:01

Very nice game, and very well polished. I liked more or less everything about this game. Good graphics, solid gameplay! Well done!

udinjelek18 Dec 2013, 08:46

I couldn't play this game :( , im using win 7 64bit, any issue of it :(?

ocathalain18 Dec 2013, 08:49

Excellent! Loved pretty much everything about this

Magdevauthor18 Dec 2013, 10:44

Fixed the crashes.
Finally got this stupid XACT music thing to compile properly in the release build. There is now musicks.

Also udinjelek, make sure you get the XNA redist.

Daniel Debert18 Dec 2013, 16:42

At first I was like... A chicken? Again? Okay... But then I was like. Mwahahaha~! I am an evil chicken!

ThatGuy18 Dec 2013, 18:13

Fun and very polished game with amazing music, very well done.

archaeometrician18 Dec 2013, 18:30

Great game, the music is awesome, the sound are really good and funny. You made me laugh a lot! The graphics are really well done, cool animation and mechanics. Great work!

CNIAngel18 Dec 2013, 23:45

Boid is the best at pecking dat cak.

Niqle19 Dec 2013, 00:26

Knife > Spoon > a collapsed star > fork

udinjelek19 Dec 2013, 03:35

ENDESGA19 Dec 2013, 03:55

Pretty awesome game! I love the graphics :)

Venks19 Dec 2013, 10:03

Absolutely love the graphics here. It's a very interesting style. Very cutesy and inviting.

ambi19 Dec 2013, 10:35

A very solid, well balanced game that I finished from start to finish. Only had to install XNA redistributable first.

brogrammers19 Dec 2013, 13:04

sweet!

Manuel Magalhães19 Dec 2013, 15:48

Great game. I liked the colorful artstyle and character design.

Jeremias19 Dec 2013, 18:24

GRAPHICS DO GOOD. MUSIC DO GOOD. I LIKE GRAPHICS. AND MUSIC. GAMEPLAY ALSO GOOD. ENEMIES SPAWNING NEAR ME NOT GOOD. I HATE SPOONS. SPOONS ARE SLOW. DIED ON POOPBOX.

JaymeeMak19 Dec 2013, 20:33

Can't play, mac

barkergames20 Dec 2013, 00:34

At first it took me a while to understand what was going on. But as soon as I did, it became addicting. I just HAD to win!

It was hard to hit the bad guys sometimes though.

Otherwise Awesome entry!

javifugitivo20 Dec 2013, 04:37

I love the graphics!

GarethIW20 Dec 2013, 09:14

I ENJOYED THE CAK

glovecat20 Dec 2013, 17:47

With a duration of an average Game Boy game, you made something delicious! Very polished in all of the categories. Well done!

Techblogogy20 Dec 2013, 19:46

I feel like my comments are quite repetitive, nut still amazing pixely graphics and music is not bad. Overall good

soy_yuma20 Dec 2013, 20:33

Excellent game! The first time I got beaten with a dirty sock. But then I tried to save the weapon and not to rush it and I made it! Good job! :-)

Czepta20 Dec 2013, 20:38

Really strange game but quite fun and challenging. Reminds me of nuclear throne if it took place in a bizarre birthday party world. Nice work!

BNeutral20 Dec 2013, 21:14

Amazing

tnerb21 Dec 2013, 19:17

Spoon is my favorite

tak22 Dec 2013, 05:42

bitslap_22 Dec 2013, 13:07

So, this game is really great. Everything is presented beautifully, especially the audio.

Diptoman22 Dec 2013, 15:23

Awesome, just awesome. The art is perfect, and the game is just loads of fun! 5/5 from me!

Harsay27 Dec 2013, 15:30

oxysoft31 Dec 2013, 18:24

Boring gameplay, but nice graphics

Jupiter_Hadley4 Jan 2014, 15:04

Really awesome graphics, cool game, loved it! I included it in part 20 of my Ludum Dare 28 compilation video series, if you'd like to take a look :) youtu.be/O9M3TIYW4UU

FrederickK5 Jan 2014, 23:58

At first I didn't understand, but when I did I loved!
So cool and so much cakeeee!
Just wish the weapon were more different.
Great game!
