About the game

Run and jump, collect coins, confront enemies and avoid traps, open gates and find secret stashes. It's a simple 2D platformer with a twist: You're not a hero from the castle about to slay an evil dragon, you're a goblin cook working for the dragon! It starts slowly but things get complicated.

The Pros: I like the simple framing story. It is cute and engaging. I like some of the enemy designs, the flapping sheet that turns into a ghost is fun and unique. The Cons: The jump arc feels a little fast and a bit off. Boss fights lack any sort of music? Really kind of have an unfinished feeling there.
