For some reason I can't record the game I tried with 2 recording softwares and non of them worked, you don't even have to help me with that, Thank you for making the game.
Episode 1 was pretty good. The layout of the map was pretty well done. The art style is very appealing. Had no issues with bugs/glitches, and the gameplay loop is fun (especially trying to do it as fast as possible). My only complaint was the difficulty. The lack of punishment for getting caught kind of drained the fun tension the game had up to my first time getting caught. I look forward to future episodes of this one.
First of all: Thank you! :) I know what you mean, however it was a choice for me between making it less punishing or risking to make it frustrating. Mainly because i didn't find a better way. I decided to not risk frustrating the player, even if it means to destroy some of that tension. I hope I find a better way in the future.
The animations/intros were nice better than most indie games, there were a few bugs. It was a bit short, I felt like it should've been around a 20+ minute experience but you know that is just my opinion. Still fantastic game, can't wait for Episode 2! Also I enjoyed the vibrant colors.
Thank you very much! :) I am still working on it so it might get a bit longer. Even if not though, episode 2 is going to be longer. This one is more a short introduction into the game itself.
man, the game impressed me on one level, after I saw the opening I couldn't believe it, a ramen game has this quality, I recorded it if I want to take a look
I beat the game in under 5 mins lol. Here is a speed run trick. Find 9 batteries and throw them into the room where the A/C is. dont actually enter room until you found 9 batteries and then after you have the amount of batteries in the room just start throwing them into the A/C. the ramen never goes into the room unless you go out to the front of store.
I'm so hyped for future episodes! I loved the intro, end credits and music. The gameplay is enjoyable and the art is awesome too! I was going to say I wanted Tasty to be more challenging, but you've already updated that this morning so well done!!
When I saw that this game existed I just had to play it. It took me forever to actually upload a video, but I love the idea of this game. I doubt I'd ever beat it, but it was really fun!!!
The difficulty in the original version was really tough for most people so I made it easier so people can enjoy it. :) I already have an idea concerning difficulty for the final game though.
It is a known bug and I am really sorry for it :( You can still play the game by pressing E a few (like... 14?) times. However I promise you that bug won't be in Episode 1.
dude this game is awesome! I love it! There is so much going on here & cant wait to play more. You have really captured the essence of a PS1 game & there are some really decent mechanics here. The map size is pretty good for the demo but I think the map size should increase & vary as each level progresses. I would also encourage a slightly less obvious noise for the bowel of ramen to give him more of a chance to catch you. Otherwise. PURE NOSTALGIC AWESOMENESS
Hey thanks a lot for the kind words. I really appreciate it! :D I agree, the map was a bit too small and overall I don't feel like it worked all that well. Episode 1 will have a very different map (still set in the store though) and I made the overall objective a bit more interesting I hope. The sounds need to stay though. <3 Though I assume I should make them a bit quieter to not give the position away too soon? :)
Hey Siactro, thanks for the reply. I get the sounds need to stay. I mean, yeah if you could make them quieter initially that would be good. Just to add more to the element of surprise when you do get seen, but still a solid game man & I really look forward to seeing the next iteration :)
Always. I am currently trying to refrain from investing time into anything other than Tasty Ramen. However I still have my two other projects. Even though they are on the backburner for now because I really want to get episode 1 done :)
Thank you very much! :D The soundtrack will change though. I used music from opengameart.org for the demo, but the game is getting it's own soundtrack for the final version. Hope you will enjoy the new tunes as well :)
I do. I work with a musician and a friend of mine helps me a lot with the ingame arts. The update (episode 1) will have a lot of changes, but don't expect it to be that huge. :) Most of the time went into redesigning parts of the game and actually figuring out where the game should go from here. So basically a lot of time where I did not create any actual content for the game. Just keep that in mind please.
Super fun game! There are definitely some things I'd change for the full version that I mention in the video. Overall really love it and hope to see it more fleshed out.
Thanks a lot. :) I am planning a lot of improvements (and already included some). The demo version was a bit rushed because of time constraints. That is the reason behind many of the not so good decisions. Most of this will change. The pink stays though! <3 :D
Already in the works! :D Currently working together with a musician on the first tunes. Well... he is working and I am just super impressed by what he makes. <3

Show post...
SUPER FIRST EP 1 :D
I beat the game in under 5 mins lol. Here is a speed run trick.

Ah, dang it. Totally forgot about that... Thanks! :D Will fix that in the next update.
I'm so hyped for future episodes! I loved the intro, end credits and music. The gameplay is enjoyable and the art is awesome too! I was going to say I wanted Tasty to be more challenging, but you've already updated that this morning so well done!!
Thanky you so much! <3 :D I am really glad you enjoyed it, and yes there are going to be a few updates for this before I start working on episode 2.
I love this so much. The art style, the music, the story, the anime intro, everything is just so well done.
Thank you so much! :D I hope you are going to enjoy the updates / episode 2 as well.
I would love to record myself playing this amazing game for a YouTube video!
Please do! <3 And make sure to share your video here :) Although, if you wait a few hours, you can play the first updated verison.
Alright, i can wait a few hours to play the updated version!
Btw, i think this game looks amazing and i hope to be able to play the other episodes that this game will have to offer!
Thanky you very much. The first update (a few fixes) is out now. Feel free to play it. :)
Alright, I will definitely try and record myself today, playing this game for a YouTube video.
When I saw that this game existed I just had to play it. It took me forever to actually upload a video, but I love the idea of this game. I doubt I'd ever beat it, but it was really fun!!!

NOT EASY FOR ME
Oh... well eh... hmmm :/ I am sorry...
This game was so fun but to be honest kinda easy and short but pretty fun still
The difficulty in the original version was really tough for most people so I made it easier so people can enjoy it. :) I already have an idea concerning difficulty for the final game though.
This was really fun (Skip to 2:58)
Thanks a lot! :)
the game will load for me, but no text appears on the starting screen. Please help?
It is a known bug and I am really sorry for it :( You can still play the game by pressing E a few (like... 14?) times. However I promise you that bug won't be in Episode 1.
loved this game so fun and scary at the same time please check out my play through of it below
Haha thanks a lot! :D And thanks for making that video! :)
no problem it was a very good game scary and funny at the same time!
dude this game is awesome! I love it! There is so much going on here & cant wait to play more. You have really captured the essence of a PS1 game & there are some really decent mechanics here.

Hey, It doesn't seems to work on my end, no text appear
Yea, sorry about that. :( That is a real annoying bug of the demo. It won't happen in the next version!
Hey, I fixed it by changing the PPI to "system(improved)
Hey, Siactro!
Any plans for a new game?
Always. I am currently trying to refrain from investing time into anything other than Tasty Ramen. However I still have my two other projects. Even though they are on the backburner for now because I really want to get episode 1 done :)
please dont tell me that i copied someone's thumbnail.
I am not entirely sure. Though great minds think alike, right? :)
I made a video too!
Hey :D Thanks a lot for the video! <3
Great game I love it, I loved the chasing soundtrack, das spiel war ganz cool, ich spreche nur englisch, deutsch, danke für das spiel
Thank you very much! :D The soundtrack will change though. I used music from opengameart.org for the demo, but the game is getting it's own soundtrack for the final version. Hope you will enjoy the new tunes as well :)
Hey, its me, Kai again,
I've just played your game and fell in love with it right away!
I really like the cute ramen bowl :-)
Same as always, keep up the terrific work! \(^_^)/
Are You Working With Other People? Because The Update That's Coming Feels Like Its Gonna Be So Huge!
I do. I work with a musician and a friend of mine helps me a lot with the ingame arts. The update (episode 1) will have a lot of changes, but don't expect it to be that huge. :) Most of the time went into redesigning parts of the game and actually figuring out where the game should go from here.

Haha! A very scary color indeed. Can't wait to see the final version!
SKIP TO 24:52!!!
Hah nice! :D Thanks a lot!
maybe get a better soundtrack
Already in the works! :D Currently working together with a musician on the first tunes. Well... he is working and I am just super impressed by what he makes. <3
