Eat not, Want not
You need to eat. But you need to keep an eye on him... what is he putting in the food?
Watch the chef to see what goes into the food. Avoid eating your allergy! To clear dishes, hold on the speech bubble to the left of the dish and then swipe right. Go for the high score and see how many dishes you can eat. Fullscreen recommended.

A brilliant idea, and the art is fantastic too.
Incredibly fun little game!
you might be saying " HECK WHAT A NOOB" BUT THIS THE BEST I COULD HAVE DONE ON MY 16 YEAR OLD LAPTOP WHO WAS RUNNING THIS ON 5 FPS
there is a problem. WE HAVE TO EAT DISHES?????? I MEAN WHY NOT SAY FOOD OR FOOD EATEN PER DISHES????HUH???
GOOD GOD HOW BIG IS OUR STOMACH-
...anyway!
Damn cool game!! Really neat graphics, love the multimedia with the real food images. Music was good too, good at building the tension :D
And the gameplay! The concept! Extremely original and creative and I love it!! Eating every bite of food manually with the fork, the chewing cooldown, looking up to watch the food prep, multi-stages for each food item being prepped with audio cues meaning you can, to an extent, learn the pattern and know how long you have left on this ingredient to focus on shovelling (like the turkey leg being cooked and then chopped), having to keep up with multiple dishes at once and not forget the order of good vs bad all while focusing on eating the dish you already have, really fun and clearly very well thought out!!
Great game, seems very well polished. Also. Why is William DaFoe trying to kill me.
El empresario Oscorp después de que lo corrieran de su propia empresa, abrió una FONDA, pero al parecer me quiere envenenar 😭
Hi there,
I run an account on X where I introduce games to a Japanese audience. I featured your game on my account a while ago, and it got a really positive response from players in Japan. I'd love to see a Steam release as well. Looking forward to it.

Hello. I saw your X post 2 weeks after you posted it. I'm very happy to see Japanese players enjoying the game as well.
I'm still working on the Steam release but progress is very slow. Sorry.
Thank you for the comment.
I’m happy to wait as long as it takes for the Steam release. If there’s anything I can do to help, please feel free to reach out. Wishing you all the best with development.
hi, can you plz introduce my game "Mario VSV 2" to the japanese audience. they will like it as the origin of Mario is from japan. This is a fan game
I really liked this game! The premise of it was really easy to learn!
Glad to see you guys keep updating this! A true gem from that jam, still my favorite, lol.
Haha yeah, just made some updates to the game cause it got really popular outside of the game jam and people didn't understand how to push the plate away nor that they had to "Trust No One". Figured I'd update the game to make it way more accessible and fair with the allergies.
We're also aiming for a steam release eventually but the team is having some complications to say the least.
I didn't join the jam for it but I did just play and finish your pumkin game! The ending was so cute it made me smile, and the gameplay reminded me of Hollow Knight.
Awww that's so sweet of you, thank you! ♡
A well deserved attention, I'd say :D It has style! And good luck with the Steam release, if you actually decide to do so, I'll keep an eye out!
That's a pretty cool game! I like the aesthetics a lot and the uncanny look of the chief! :D
Sick game interesting concept
I could easily play for hours🥹(which i did but cut it out)
very fun indeed. Just add leaderboard please. Just scoring number itself is not fun enough. Add like, all time leaderboard, today's leaderboard, weekly leaderboard, so that everyone gets a chance to be on it, it will create a sense of competition I suppose. Just an idea
This is such a cool game, loved it :3
The guy looks like Willem Dafoe. But does Willem know?
I played this as a part of my 3 spooky games series, I absolutely loved it!!
3 SPOOKY GAMES #5
FUCKIN BLARK!?
very cool game, props to the devs and especially sound designers and visual artists, lova how you used godot, cool consept.
Played this on my channel :3
great games, usually im a complete pussy when it comes to horror games but this game managed to be just the necessary on "scariness" terms
I KNEW THAT WAS AN OYSTER
How to download is it still in development?
Yo, really fun game! I got 13, but I'd do better with a mouse lol. Cool concept too!
I like how the game became more difficult as time went on! Keep up the great work!
High score??
Woohooo! Lots of fun!!!
Mmm firefood... Eat firefood today. This game is like Among us when it says my allergy is crab in red text in the beginning and it is smart even in the beginning when you cant eat. Cause I was trying to stab the guy with the fork and then found I was more of a guy who is just here to eat but a smart player can realize there is time to pay attention and time to figure out how to use the fork. Though Im pretty sure you can survive a long time without eating even longer than this game. Cause hunger strikes are a thing. I guess this guy we play as is ambigious to his health reason for hunger. Maybe the main cahracter already did a strike against this chef and has been here for days. Since we keep eating, Maybe the main character is a food critic who has to review the whole restuaraunt but he did a hunger strike so he could have the appetite.
he's not willem dafoe-ling me
yayyy i ate 15 :3
Hello to you too, Mr. Dafoe
First game where I actually controlled a fork and put food to my mouth :) Why isn't that more common!?
This game is insane, like so much
Pretty cool!
W game, I wanna eat eggs T_T
