Byte-Size Bakery

Inspiration

We all like cozy games -- our team wanted to make something fun that our fellow CS/IT students would enjoy.

What it does

This two-player game is a bakery simulation where you and a friend can step into the life of cafe owners. You take orders from customers and go through a multi-step process to make the customer's desired baked good. For the sake of simplicity, our game focuses on cupcakes.

How we built it

Kaboom.js
Hopes and dreams

Challenges we ran into

Time.
Managing 2000+ lines of code in a single .js file :/

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Our VIP customer's sprite designs! (They may or may not be inspired by a few CS faculty members here at Mizzou)
This is a two-player game! Player 1 can navigate using the arrow keys while Player 2 uses the WASD keys

What we learned

There is a LOT that goes into making a good game
Making sprites to use in the game takes much longer than you think it will
We do not like Kaboom scenes

What's next for Bakery Blitz

Levels with increasing customer frequency and decreasing patience while waiting for orders
Options for decor so players can decorate the bakery!
Adding messages for users regarding game tasks and goals (reducing confusion)
