I mean it was fun until the 4th map where you literally have to run across the big ass map just to deliver one package. Thats not fun, thats literally just more work and trying to extend gameplay instead of innovating.

This game is full of chaos and fun! I had so much fun playing it with friends and definitely look forward to getting into it again. It starts off fairly easy, and you begin by thinking "I got this, no problem" BUT THEN you hit those boss levels and all of a sudden chucking meat into a machine is very stressful and throwing it into a bay door juuuuust as it's about to close feels like the biggest achievement. 5 …

HAM is fun, which is the main thing. It feels a little undercooked (pun intended) at the moment, which hopefully will improve over time with the planned roadmap. The physics are a bit janky in a way that is mostly fun, but can be annoying (mainly around the train on that one map). And at first it seems quite a simple party game, but it's deeper than it initially looks. To begin you're just running around and …

This game has been a lot of fun and will be one I continue to play with friends. It requires cooperation and teamwork and even though it seems repetitive, each round is different enough to keep it interesting. If you just want to make it though you can just full send it and survive. If you want the high scores, you have to be tactical to maximize the profits. The different difficulties keep it from getting dull as …

You think it would get silly after 10 minutes, but now I am just so invested in running a Ham operation that I cannot stop.

This is super cute, super funny, but also still a challenge you wanna keep pushing to do better in. Lots of fun with friends for sure. Quality is A+, as well as the music, VA work, and scripting!

It is not intuitive to use at all and having to switch between them feels clunky at best and straight up run ruining at worst. There's too many gadgets for a game about making ham.
