I made lasagna! Love the fun writing style. The chicken chase was weird – I don’t know if it was a bug or by design, but the chicken always stayed out of reach, until I stopped moving and then it came to me on its own. Very impressive 3d graphics. Looking forward to seeing more of your work. Congrats!

I could not find the chicken. I saw the chicken at the edge of my screen, but the it disappeared. I love the 3D graphics and that spider-like robot, but I was definitely afraid of getting lost because the map had no landmarks nor arrows to help me back to the construction site.

I expected player to lie low, observe, memorize the route of the chicken (it walks in circles around the construction site), stand on the route and grab the chicken as it passes by. It’s kind of a stealth mission. In practice, no one has done this, everyone either catches it by accident, or can’t catch it at all. This chicken is a complete failure that has ruined my game. I hate it.\n😡🍴🍗🍗

Graphics for the hero image are super cute! Love the use of Blender.

\n

Need some sound effects and music for a little more immersion. Also add a way to speed up the text on the intro scene. Good narrative and setup though. The chicken ran away so fast - and the game scene felt like it was a bit too infinite, felt like I was never going to catch that chicken… or find the construction site. Funnily enough the chicken came back but ran away so much faster than my character could ever move.

\n

Add a little more into your GitHub README ❤️.

I think I completed the game. I was able to make lasagna after being teleported away. Impressive 3D graphics.

That was cool! Some cute models and funny narration. Also, your implementation of the plot line looks very elegant!

The game was really nice looking, the spider model and movements were pretty impressive.

\n

I never did find the chicken - I’m still looking. The playfield was pretty big. Also it took me quite a while of reading what the creator said before I realise I was able to start moving around.

\n

The pick-up/put-down mechanic for interacting with objects was a bit flickery, maybe some kind of debounce would be good, or make it so you need to release SPACE and press it again to toggle states.

Thanks for detailed feedback. You brought a couple issues to my attention that I wouldn’t have noticed without you. The way SPACE works right now is a bug. It is supposed to do one pick-up(or put-down) per press, but instead it does it repeatedly if you press and hold it. Thanks to you I noticed and fixed this bug in the post-compo version of the game.

\n

Sorry about the chicken: it hangs out near the construction site and runs away only if player chases it. To catch it, player have to stand on its route and grab it when it passes by.

I cant find the construction site so I wandered aimlessly for a while and left the smol in a field somewhere after a chicken ran away. Then I couldnt find either of them again.\nI persevered though, and managed to make the pizza somehow. I love that you can move diagonally and no one has complained about the inability to skip the dialog. 🐔🍽️

I couldn’t find the chicken so couldn’t progress very far. I also had picked up the person in the beginning and couldn’t figure out where it wanted me to place it back down (didn’t know what the factory was). Game looks interesting though.

Hello! Thanks for your submission to js13k!\nI’m sure you’ve worked hard on your game, but I’m not aware of how much time you spent on it, so excuse me if things I mention were in your mind, but got left out in the rush of the month or just because you hit the 13kb limit :)

It was too hard to catch the chicken, but graphics are really nice, so do the animations. Game seems interesting

This is one of the best games I’ve played here!

\n

I really liked the text at the beginning until I started moving, it was very interesting and funny :). Then it turned out that I am a robot! Robot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love robots :). It was nice to have someone besides you on the game stage, moreover, the creator himself! Somewhat reminiscent of the pleasant atmosphere of helping in cooking in the kitchen :).

\n

Little Troubles That Happen on Friday the 13th is a very good theme match! And playing as a robot as a secondary character who has to help is innovative!

\n

3D graphics with well-drawn objects, the creator, me and, of course, the lasagna machine - very cool!

\n

I didn’t immediately understand how to catch up with the chicken, I ran after her for a long time :), but then I realized that before I ran after her, she was circling nearby ;). So then I had to turn back, it’s good that I ran diagonally and came back the same way, because without navigation I would have gotten lost :).

\n

And in general, my creator can turn off the sun at the push of a button! Even if not the first time ;).

\n

The movement of the robot is very smooth, the only thing I noticed is that when I press the S button, that is, I go down, the eyes are not visible, but then I realized that this is probably due to the way the shadow falls on the object. In any case, this is a cool mechanic!

\n

I really liked it, congratulations!

Unfortunately, I could not play the game: I have “search as you type” enabled in my browser, so when I try to move the browser search suddenly shows up. You should call .preventDefault() on all keyboard events to prevent this.

Awesome artstyle ans animations ! And fun storytelling/monologues.

I catched a chicken, but could not find the construction site…

Great concept, but with neither construction site or chicken anywhere to be found, I didn’t last long in the game.

\n

Great robot spider!!

I have no idea what I’m supposed to do. There’s a printed chicken but I am unable to catch it. It runs off and never comes back, and I don’t quite understand how to prevent it. Some hints from the creator would be helpful.
