-Graphic glitch while screen is fading
 
Impressions
Gameplay
9 / 10
Are you going to pull out the veggie and kill your target? No! Now it's time to eat them. Starring as Toadette as the cook trying to make a delicious soup out of them. But wait, follow the right instruction and adjust the temperature of the soup to prevent it getting spoiled. Or the consumer will be angry.

Basically, you pull out the veggie in the right order and throw them at the pot. And adjust the soup temperature to prevent overcooked or undercooked. The controls are pretty confusing at first but for a while it's fine. However, for the jump button, the game did not tell me what key to jump. So I just press random button until I got it while I press the Space Bar.
 
Graphics
8 / 10
Graphics looks fine except the pot sprite and the background. The pot sprite seems clash with rest of the game's gfx. While the background seems unfitting. It makes the audience feels that Toadette is cooking outside.

I found a glitch while running on my computer.** When the screen is fading in or out during room transition. Some HUD and sprites have a black box behind it.

**I'm not that sure someone else is encountering this problem.

Overall the SMW+SMB2+SMB3 graphics looks fine. Though they're overused on MFGG.
 
Sound
9 / 10
I have not much of complaint on the sfx. The music is fitting and the sound effect is pretty nice with the graphics. The only thing that bothers me a little is the voice at the end of each level. I thought it was Toadette's voice at first.
 
Replay
6 / 10
Since this game is too easy and too short. Many players managed to beat the game under 10 minutes. Though, some tries to beat his/her previous record.
 
Final Words
8 / 10
Guinea brought us another refreshing concept over the vegetables instead using them as weapons.

A few days ago, I added W as a jump key and put in a tutorial message that tells you that W and Space jump.

Thanks for the review.
