Thanks for the Soup

On the surface, "Thanks for the Soup" is an OK job simulator, but unfortunately to progress the story, it becomes an absolutely excruciating series of fetch quests. I was really hoping to enjoy this game but it honestly felt like a painful chore. The fetch quests are particularly tedious as they are time confined. The player can only access the quest-giver and stores at opposing hours, so a lot of in-game hours are skipped/wasted. For example, one must wait until after 2am to know what item the NPC requires, and if that random item if not in your inventory, you have to wait until the stores re-open mid-day to obtain it. The time restraints are made even more frustrating, as the "bad ending" will happen by day 10 if not all items are fetched in time; and this is assuming the player finds the NPC very early on. I really don't understand how one is supposed to organically complete this game and get one of the better endings. There were a couple bizarre events/jump scares, one of which made my game crash. I was more confused than spooked. I cannot recommend this as a horror game.

A very engaging and relaxing game. You can own cats, upgrade your bike, and go fishing. 10/10

I really like it. It's got a lot of secrets and good influence, but it's also impossible to do well on a first playthrough because of the lack of info that is provided to you until the very end. It's a bit jank and unclear, there's some real kicks in the nuts and it can be a bit tedius and frustrating, but I really enjoyed what it had to offer and perhaps when it's out of early access, it will be a more polished experience. Even for its current build, I had a complete experience that only really fell out of favor at the VERY end. Good job.

Awesome game with a lot more to it than it seems. Great horror experience built on just generally being unsettling and not cheap jump scares. DON'T DIG IN THE GRAVEYARD. Really excited to see this get developed. Awesome job!

I still don't know what this game is about, I'm very intrigued but this game could benefit extremely from a manual save; many times I got myself stuck on or behind things (or when time just got stuck itself, or I was terminated for missing deliveries when they were not appearing) you have to reload from the main menu and the auto save is right before you die or exit to the menu when you're still stuck. Having to start this game over consistently just to try to find all the clues/ get the different endings hinders interest into the story and world that's trying to reveal itself to me. There's something much deeper to this game that I'm interested in, but the grueling part is the whole game.

Game is pretty solid with a lot of things to do outside of the main objective, which is to deliver soup. This game seems to be inspired by Voices of the Void as evidenced by a few different quirks and features of the game. I think that's why I enjoy this game so much. I haven't really seen or done everything there is to do, but God came down and convinced me to take a break after some grave digging. Good job Solshade games, I will be playing more of this. Gracias por la sopa!
