Slather breads with spreads in this ooey gooey simulator!


Mama Margarine has employed you to help at her family business, the Slatherhouse, a popular eatery for those partial to thick spreads and soft breads.


Use your trusty butter knife and an arsenal of seven irresistible spreads to fulfil customer orders. Look out for the boss baguette!


Controls


[KEYBOARD + MOUSE ONLY]


The mouse controls the knife - Left click will lower the knife allowing you to spread or scrape whatever it is above.


If you wish to unload the spread currently on the knife, do as you would in real life and right click to angle the knife against the spread's container and just drag downwards. 


Also like real life, it's difficult to butter bread one-handed. Be sure to use [Space]  (CMD/Shift/CTRL) to hold onto things so they don't move around.


Mouse Control Knife

Left Click Scrape/Spread

Right Click + Drag Downward Unload spread into appropriate container

Space (alternatively CMD/Shift/CTRL) Hold currently hovered item in place


Known Bugs

  • With enough force, spreads can be shoved out of the play area and get lost.

Omg this game is so cute! I love the style and I hope to see more of this game! <3

My butter disappeared. 10/10

HyperJerk responds:

I'm sorry, I hope you can find it again.

Thanks for playing!

Fun game to pass the time, even if the controls are little slippery

HyperJerk responds:

Thank you for playing!

Could I ask what about the controls feel slippery?

The game has a virtual mouse with different friction levels for what the knife interacts with. So any feedback on what could improve that concept would be very much appreciated :)

Short and sweet, just how I like my bakery. Nice game!
Oh, and Mama Margarine is very cute :3

HyperJerk responds:

Thank you! I'm glad you like Mama!

Very fun! The cream got stuck off screen and I couldn't complete the boss baguette. A spread reset would be nice.

HyperJerk responds:

Hiya, thanks for playing, I'm so sorry that happened to you.

Things getting shoved off screen is a known bug and I didn't have time to fix it for the game jam submission, but hopefully I can address this for the NG version soon.
