Head Chef by ChristopheBessette
Your task is to help Chef Pesto find his ingredients for his secret recipes. He forgot to brought components for cooking and has to start from nothing.

Mechanics:
Pesto will show you some ingredients to get from the forest, for 3 seconds. Remember well the quantities! After you found your ingredients, return back to Cooking Station 3 to get the next recipe. Careful! The next round will appear faster! If you fail you will start the rounds over!
ingredients are found in the following:
Bee Hive:

Maple Tree:

Flowers:

Controls:
- move using WASD
- press space to gather resources
- press space at the station 3 to finish the recipe
Known Bugs:
- Its hard to get around walls sometimes
- Door is hard to pass through by moments
- It is a lot easier to go behind object and from the left side of your character to collect items
Edits: - Made Collision a lot better (now they work 95% properly) - Camera now works properly

Here's the actual feedback, I do not intend to hurt your feelings; it's my experience.
So I noticed that collission detection is taking your player of its axis; it moves faster than the viewport. This makes picking up the ingredients very hard.
I managed to pick up some flowers and a few honeypots; but I couldn't pick up the stuff coming from the trees cause my character was out of place I think.
I really, really, loved your art style. Please talk to me when you want to join another Ludum Dare. I'm not joking. https://twitter.com/Bjeaurn
Two hints:
maybe hitbox for ingredients bigger. its sometimes hard to get
second: i had camera issues if i got to the end of the map (afterwards i couldnt see myself anymore)
Congrats! :)

It has very nice graphics and audio, but in my eyes, a game should always have the gameplay first.
Congrats on completing the jam nonetheless!
