Snailatouille by PeytonBrown
You took the million dollars and opened a French restaurant of your dreams. But just because you forgot about the snail doesn't mean he forgot about you.

Could do with a clearer tutorial good level of player feedback!
Glad you enjoyed it, I also had a lot of fun making it. This was my first Game Jam and more or less my first time actually making something with a game engine.
Some funny bugs happened such as:
This bug allowing you to fly xD

and this very strange bug that caused a ton of items to spawn xD

Controls seem good, cooking is great! The snail I would maybe make follow the path the player takes as it got in the way of the desk a lot.
I would like to see more on this! It has a nice charm! Nicely done!
A few points of critique:
- Trying to place objects on the surface in front of you would sometimes result in them warping through the surface (goodbye forever, toast), raycasting from the player to determine the held object location would prevent that
- It took me too long to figure out where the orders were listed. I was probably just being an idiot, but if they stood out more it would be more idiot-proof.
- It would be nice to be able to click into the baskets to pick up objects in addition to the current system of clicking on the floating version above the basket.
- The goal seemed a bit pricy for a jam game. I didn't make it all the way to 50k.
- My first time playing I bought some bread while figuring out the game, and then realized that since every order had at least $1000 in material costs, I had lost.
