510 was the best score I ever got XD. I noticed how I got faster the higher my score was. I really liked the music and the theme with the Greek food. Also, from playing it so much I managed to see a bug. I think it was because I took the order so quickly that the next one didn't show me what the npc wanted. But I didn't understand what the timer was for.
That bug is a tough one to squash, and it has to deal with how I built the underlying architecture for handling the line and npcs. It has to do with a race condition between (only) the first NPC being destroyed and the spawner's tracking logic, and I hit a wall on trying to fix it before submission lol
Haha, thank you! The ramp-up is a little intense and needs some tuning for sure. I used an exponential decay for spawn time with a half life of like 5 turn-ins, clamped at a minimum of 0.5 seconds.
So it ramps *hard* and could have definitely been toned down. 30 is wild, since after 20 they're spawning every half second. I don't think I could pull off 30 lol

Had a couple of goes, best I could do is 30. Good to hear you got some of your mates involved in game design. It not easy! Well done. Good luck.
