Nuts About Nuts

Not really sure what it's going for here, it's a little like PlateUp but bare bones and with very little guidance, considering how much PU did with iconography it just feels obtuse. Items are limited and there are some questionable UI choices (the pulsing/pounding that continues when you're trying to select menu options/settings for one. Had to refund, can't recommend.

This is the Third release from LBGames, a dev me and a friend found while googlin' around for some fun games to play, and so I'm playing all of their games to show them support, but also giving my honest feedback on them all. Nuts about Nuts is a overcooked-inspired management game that favors chaos and unpredictability over everything else. You build parts and deliver them in a time limit as accurately as possible and hope you don't bleed all over the floor in the process. The Good. Nuts about Nuts is pretty standard on it's face. A simple goofy game with some decent management elements that combine waiting and working and waiting and working in a loop over and over until you eventually run out of time. It's tight, feels pretty decent, and is a good deal of fun... for around 30-60 minutes. I think the biggest bonus of Nuts about Nuts is that it clearly has a style, and it works well in that style. While I wouldn't call it the successor to overcooked at all, I do think what LB is doing here is pretty fun. I think back to games like Smithworks that blew up on steam a long while ago as apt comparisons. The rough-around-the-edges design, but clear passion for the game. I think there…

Lots of bugs and issues. Game had potential. Couldn't get a refund but that's fine. You live and learn.
