This is amazing! I'm not quite sure what I was expecting to play, but it turned out to be some kind of Dragon Ball Z style 3D fighting game with a very muscular chef!?
I loved the graphics and the humor. Great job with the cutscenes. Not very many Ludum Dare games have 3d animated cutscenes!
I'm not quite sure I fully understood the fighting system. The later opponents were very good at dodging ranged attacks, and the heavy attacks didn't seem to do much damage. So I mostly just spammed light attack while trying to dodge their projectiles. It worked pretty well, and I was able to defeat Paprikaman! I had a lot of fun with it, and I especially liked all the particle and sound effects (even just for moving around).
The one thing that might have been cool to have is some kind of cooking mechanic. But I have no idea how you would manage to combine that with the fighting mechanics.
What a ride. Not only was this game hilarious, but it was fun to play as well. I enjoyed getting into the rhythm of attacking and dodging, and once I felt I had mastered it, the game was over! Amazing visuals as well.
My only complaints were my range attacks never hit, and there wasn't much difference in the enemies' fighting styles. Small nitpicks.
This game had me laughing so hard. The cut scenes are perfection. The sound effect, music, voice acting, art, and animations are all amazing. The fighting is fast paced and loads of fun. The one nitpick is that the counter is kind of slow and unresponsive sometimes. This game is so well executed. I would absolutely love to play an expanded version of this game with more characters and multiplayer. Fantastic Job!
Quite professional camera coordination and animations you have there! The fights feel a bit too long and the enemy is too quick to dodge ranged attacks even at close range though. Also the flash effect when moving left or right is a bit too much, maybe speed up the player the longer he moves in one direction and let this effect only kick in when he's really fast? Would've also enjoyed a skip fight button so I can watch all those juicy videos! Great humor and entry.
Wow, that game deserves much more attention, it is realy cool and fun:) I love these cutscenes, that jojo-like pathos and gameplay is so great executed. Once you get parry mechanic it's not so hard to win figths. Good job!
Delicious! Nice fighting game! The controls felt off at first but after some time they were actually pretty good! There are some bad clippings between scenes sometimes, but the cut scenes were the best! Though the game never told me the controls and in my opinion, the game should speak for itself! But as soon as I learned you could use a controller, then I'm not searching so much for what to press! Sweet game!
LOL. it has a DragonBall vibe to it. Love it. A very satisfying entry to the LD #41. Counter-attacking was a little bit tricky though. But had fun with this game.
Funny game, weirdly on rails combat which I found a bit motion sicky but other than that it was great. Like the graphics, you clearly put a lot of effort into the cutscenes and it made the game.

Also finally something where it makes sense to rate the humor! :smile:

Keep up the crazy!
