Well, this is my first larger 'game.' All comments welcome. However, please remember that this is really my first attempt at a larger game so please don't over critsize. Well, here are the instructions for the game:



ObjectiveTo earn as much money as you can
ControlsLeft control= enter store.
'a','b',or'c' when in store = buy that item.
'F1' set new bake time
'F2' set new bake temperature
'1' cook whatever is in inventory space #1(At the current time/temperature)
'2' cook whatever is in inventory space #2(At the current time/temperature)
'3' cook whatever is in inventory space #3(At the current time/temperature)
'return'(or 'enter' depending on keyboard) return to main playing screen. Please note that when you are setting cooking time or temperature you must press enter 2 to 3 when you are finished so that you return to main screen and all the numbers reappear.

edit-------
something uploaded wrong it only gives you a picture....I'll try to fix it.

Can someone help? This game uses bitmaps and obviously the actual exe file but I can only upload one of these files...How can I upload my game so that you can play it using all those bitmaps?

Crikey - I'm glad food items in the real world come with instructions, or I'd never eat!

There's no way of telling what temperature to use, how long to cook for - not even if you're in Celcius or Farenhieght! It's a good attempt at an original game, but there's got to be some 'game' to it, not just guessing numbers

Seems cool to me!

[center]But I agree with what Tinkergirl said. But you know what would be cool? To have like a cook book that tells you how to bake different stuff and you need to buy the cook book. You should be able to sell your items. Then most importantly, ramdomize what is in stock in the store and add other stuff like tacos! Oh, and also,
there is an error. When you bake a pizza, if you burn it, it says that you burnned a cake!

Hi, I tried my luck with this 'cause Im not at good at cooking. I went to the shop, bought, then I had no clue about the times or temperatures, I just always press "auto start" in my micro. I set the times and temperature, all I got was:"You cant cook the cake, eh?". So this game is realy realistic!

Few suggestion: Some ingame help, for settings and keys.
Also, graphics are a bit too bright for my eyes, you could use http://www.gimp.org/ its as easy as paint and almost as cabable than photoshop.

This could be a realy good game to teach us geeks how to cook!

Unfortunately I'm not the best cook myself, but thanks for the comments, I'll try to improve it.
