The Secret Shopper Event in Bread ‘n Butter recently ended and we want to congratulate the grand prize winner, jprlnb! A brand-spankin’-new iPod was awarded and lots and lots of treats were baked while the secret shoppers made their way through all the open bakeries.

Congratulations to all the winners. Take a look at our interview with jprlnb below, and be sure to keep playing Bread ‘n Butter for a chance at some more great contests!

Where do you live?
Macon, Georgia.

 

How old are you?
22.

 

How did you find out about Bread ‘n Butter?
My sisters have been playing Bread ‘n Butter for a couple of months. I saw them playing one day and I thought it looked interesting so I signed up. It’s a great game because not only is it fun to play, but I can compete with my sisters to see who can the most chocoballs or strawberries in a single game day.

 

What’s your favorite mini game and why?
I’d have to say Jam is my favorite. It reminds me so much of Whack-a-Mole, which is one of my favorite games. I just love the old school arcade games and look forward to playing any other minigames with the same old school game flavor.

 

What is the longest session of BnB you’ve played in one sitting?
In one sitting? I lost count after 12 hours XD. I think it was around 14 hours, although technically it wasn’t one sitting. Had to stretch my legs every hour or so after all and had a quick lunch in there too. I must say that my floor is probably really worn from all that pacing XD.

 

What new features would you like to see in BnB’s future batches?
More soundtracks would be cool. Sometimes you’re playing some minigames like Kneading House and you’re in a rush to get those last two or three last dough bits. Or after playing for a couple hours straight you want to listen to some different ambient music, maybe the customers wouldn’t mind a different song every few days either XD.

 

Maybe a marketplace or grocery store place where you can sell your excess ingredients or buy some that you need. That way people could buy some of the later minigames without feeling pressured to buy the ones that give the ingredients for it. And maybe a way to sample the minigames for a few game days before buying them. It’d be silly to buy a game to find out you don’t like it that much and end up rarely playing it.

 

Any other information, comment or message you want to share?
Bread ‘n Butter is an extremely addictive game. Just a few game days can quickly turn into a few real life hours. Just be sure to stretch your legs once in a while when you play =).

How did you find out about Bread ‘n Butter?
I wanted to play Fiesta and when I visited the Outspark Homepage I found it!

What’s your favorite mini game and why?
I love all mini games but my favourite at the moment is Banana Beats. I like it because I love musical games where you have to follow rhythm and push the correct arrow. I think I like it so much because it reminds me dancing games!

What is the longest session of BnB you’ve played in one sitting?
My longest BnB session I have played in one sitting was the one to win this contest. I played all the night, 8 hours straight. I was exhausted!

What new features would you like to see in BnB’s future batches?
I’d like to see many things, like the release of more mini games and something “new”. I mean something that adds more gameplay. I’d love to see a “Baker’s House” with relative furniture sold for profit. This for me would be great!

Any other information, comment or message you want to share?
I’d like to share a comment. I think this game is a great project because it’s different from others MMO. You all did a great job and I’m sure you will continue to surprise us.

I’d also want to thank you for your assistance, patience and dedication to our problems.
