I never knew my life needed cake turtles until I played this game. Awesome job. Beating up desserts has never felt so satisfying.

I enjoy the hand-drawn feel of the art. Everything's really cute and violent :)

Great entry. I am not very good at killing meatballs it seems.

Pretty fun, kind-of-easy to handle game, despite my high score only being 22.

Very silly theming, I like the turtle cakes! I would say that the hyper sensitivity to the movement made it extremely difficult and I often accidentally ran into enemies. Part of this is because the attack direction was dependent on facing, so if I wanted to attack something coming up behind me, I would often turn and run into that enemy before I could set up to attack. Nice audio feedback on hittin stuff.

I love the scale of the rolling pin compared to the main character. It makes you feel really powerful while you beat up those baked goods!

ginger boss was the best!
I liked how fast the game felt, gave me just a bit adrenaline rush. which is something I rarely feel in LD31 games (and thats why I made my game so)

nice mechanics, felt like you finished your job here, I wish there were some more contents like a special weapon or something.

good work all in all
