How does your game fit the theme?
The game is about a Blackbird Chef who creates new dishes. This happens in the "Calm" phase. Here the player learns how to create those dishes with chill music in the background. And like in many restaurants, this "Calm" phase is followed by many hungry and impatient customers in the "Storm" phase during the opening hours. Here the player has to serve the dishes under pressure with hard rock music in the background.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes, I created all the assets. Except for two songs that I purchased in the Unity AssetStore and credited in the description. Also I've used some sound files that are either made by me, purchased, or fall under the CC0 license.

I saw it on nomistreams on Twitch.
You know, I saw it and thought eh, looks easy enough.
Wrong. Absolutely wrong. It pulls the tablecloth out and makes you balance the plates, twisting your fingers 6 of the more finger-twisting words you’d ever type. Doesn’t apply if you know the languages, though.
It made my Velocifire catch fire.
The one thing is that I wish that the input box was cleared after each incorrect word. Now I’ll go do more typing speed tests to train myself to get a better score.
Haha, thank you so much, glad you enjoyed the challenge! :-)
And thank you for your feedback!
This is fun! The fact that you added words in different languages were really unexpected, cool minigame for learning new words actually)
Glad you had fun! :-)
Thank you so much!
This is fun! It turned out to be an unexpected typing game based on the description! The movements are cute and enjoyable. However, the non-English words were really tough (haha)!
Thank you so much, glad you liked it! :-)
Wished I could also cook a car in real life. Pretty cool game btw :)
Hope that you'll also rate mine https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-12/rate/2973690
Who doesn't? ;-) Thank you so much! :-)
I will!
I'm so glad I discovered this game.
Thanks! :-)
Good job on the submission! I didn't expect that at all hahaha
I like the direction you took for the art, simple yet charming ^^
Really nicely done and perfect for the game jam!
Thank you so much! :-)
This was super cool! One of the best I've played so far. Awesome that you even put some "cut scenes" in between rounds :)
Thank you so much! Really makes me happy to hear that you liked it so much! :-)
Very Cool!
Thanks! :-)
All of a sudden, I realized I was having a blast :D Love the visuals, and the mechanics are super fun. You're a villain for zugzwang, though, lmao.
Thank you so much, happy you had a blast! :-)
Haha, yeah! ^^
This is a really cute game! I enjoy the "typing of the dead" twist on the cooking theme, though I always struggle with these sorts of games. Awesome work!
Thank you so much! :-)
Cute vibes!
Thanks! :-)
Fun little game, great idea!
Thank you! :-)
Bratwrust i cannot even type correctly in here :(
... :-(
But you reached the final level before "endless mode", and that's something! :-D
Fun game, I liked the visuals and the crow cooking to the customers :)
I couldn’t stop laughing in the last level, somehow after some tries and looking at my keyboard what I’m typing, I could beat it, but I it’s too hard for me to type those words, I typed birllo, bratwrust and zugzwang I really couldn’t type it well until I looked at my keyboard hahaha. The endless mode is too much for me, I only get like 5 before thinking it got too much in the customers
I liked the change in the music and it’s creative to serve the food like this, I like the system and it could be a fun typing game
I had a great time playing this game and didn't encounter any bugs or something bad ^^
Thank you so much! Happy to read that you had a great time playing! :-)

Did you save your rating? For some reason did the "Rated by ... people" counter not go up ... And this would be my 20th rating! :-)
I actually rated this 3 days ago, alongside a bunch of other games. Itch has been holding my comments for moderator approval, so I'm only now able to actually leave replies. Sorry for the false alarm! 😬
Oh ok, no problem! Glad I finally received your comment! :-)
Thank you for your reply! :-)
I really liked the mixed 2d and 3d graphics ,And i panicked when birds started running and screamaing at me first ahah. But at my second attempt it was really really fun! I love testing my limits about fast texting. Interesting food choice but i respect the birds ☺
It stil has some bugs and not finished but if you also want to try our game it makes us really happy! ☺

Haha, yeah, these birds are quite something else! Thank you for your feedback, glad you had fun! :-)
Sure, I am going to play your game later! :-)
Thank you so much! ☺
Could be a really good basis of a language and typing game! Really innovative well done :)
Thank you so much! :-)
Really great graphics. Not sure what in the world these birds are eating but the mechanic is working really well and the game is even quite challenging, nice job on this!
Thank you so much! :-)
Yeah, these birds have quite the appetite. ;-)
