Fun, short, horror game. It was a nice twist to not be the one who's being chased around. This kind of reminded me of Supper, a pixel style horror game I played last year. Nice work hope you do more like it! Of course, I added it to my playlist as well if you wanna check it out :)
I believe mother may have already been dead (killed by little helper's father) and was guiding her son from her grave to get revenge on him, since she did mysteriously disappear together with all the spiralling blood worms after the final ingredient was added. But hey, that's just a theory. a game theory
EDIT: And the fact that the mother had a nightmare face in her last scene.
I like the game! The lines and effects are cool! Could've been more vibrant color but its good! I wish you the best and Good Luck from The BraveHen its self!
I loved this. Initially I wished it would be longer, but honestly, I think it hits just perfectly as is. There's some super, super unsettling about the little noises, the strange ambience, and the way you just hack and hack at the chopping board. Really good work! Made a short video on it too, as if we needed any more lol I'd LOVE to see more in this style though!
Dope atmosphere! I think you could totally flesh this out into something bigger, Maybe a prelude episode that talks about what happened within the family. But overall, dope!!
I really enjoyed this game! I just wish it was longer and had a bigger story line. I also enjoyed the art style but it could of been cleaned up a bit. Overall it was a good game!
I didn't include any critique in my video; it is the original gameplay and commentary, edited to enhance the comedic elements of the session. Game critique is included below.
I love how strangely this game flows with the theme of the (Discord) Jam: the theme (e.g. mutation) is carried out by the Mother character slowly degrading over time to reveal a less sad and more ghoulish face. It's so subtle and horrifying.
During editing, I was able to come up with a possible explanation or theory as to the events of the game: the Father, whose dialogue paints him as a careless, abusive and impatient man, killed the Mother whose ghost now haunts the home. Only the child (protagonist; who may or may not know their Mother is dead) can see the ghost and as an act of ultimate revenge, the Mother's instructions lead the the child to poisoning and killing the Father. This is the only way I can explain the Mother's odd movements (especially her head) and the fact that she seems to not want to touch anything. It's ridiculous to have a child use a butcher knife to cut anything, especially hard vegetables and raw meat.
Even if this theory is not the case, this short game was very surprising and fun to play. The sounds of the game were very, very well done.

My Dad said that this game can be based on a song... I don't if that is true but I wish it was a little longer. I loved this game!!! Ty

I love this rendition of cooking mama. I'm thinking that I made mama proud!

I don't know if I SHOULD have helped mother, I think Mother actually needs to get mental help.

Short and sweet just how I like it.
