Jack O Lantern Pizza

A single recipe with a design problem at the end of it. The pizza itself is straightforward — base, sauce, cheese, bake — and the whole point arrives at the topping stage, where pepperoni and black olives have to be arranged into a recognisable pumpkin face.

The game gives you no template. Eyes, nose and mouth are placed freehand from the ingredient tray, and the difference between a good result and a poor one is entirely spacing: features set too close together read as a blob once the cheese melts around them.

Everything else is prompted and untimed. It is a short seasonal title, but the freehand face is a genuinely open piece of design in a genre that usually hands you a sticker to drop into place.

How to Play

  1. Prepare the base and add sauce and cheese.
  2. Cut the pepperoni and olives into the shapes you need.
  3. Arrange the face freehand on the raw pizza.
  4. Bake and see how the features hold.

Tips & Tricks

Space the features wider than looks right. Melting cheese spreads the toppings inward during the bake, and a face that was correct on the raw base closes up in the oven.

Frequently Asked Questions
