What’s iskrambol?
Iskrambol or “ice scramble” is a popular Filipino snack served cold and made with shaved ice, powdered milk, and LOTS of sugar. Often, iskrambol vendors sell near schools since they know they’ll attract lots of hungry young customers with their colorful and sweet iskrambols.

Game Pillars
Cute Pixelart
The style of the game is cute, minimalist, and pastel pixel art.
Wholesome Concept and Nostalgic Theme
Through the game, players can relive memories of eating iskrambols and even learn how to make them themselves.
Freedom and Low-Stress in Iskrambol-Making
Players choose how to decorate and style their iskrambols. They can move ingredients/decor to their liking. Ingredients vary in color, shape, and size, and positioning also doesn’t matter. This mechanic allows each iskrambol to be made different from each other. Timers are also optional.
Game Lore
Iskrambol Days is set in present-day Philippines. The player sells iskrambols with an iskrambol cart near a few different schools. Customers (mostly students) come by to get iskrambols during their breaks. Eating their favorite iskrambols helps brighten their schooldays. Akin to real life, iskrambols sell at a very low price, and buying ingredients/decorations is expensive.
About Iskrambol Days Development
The development of Iskrambol Days started in February 2024, but I came up with the “iskrambol” concept in December 2023. It started out as a typical fast-paced business-optimization-type game but I eventually redesigned it to a more low-stress cute mobile game focused on decoration aspects. TheI release was planned to be in June but the hype I got from Tiktok really encouraged me to take more time to polish the game.
Iskrambol Days is inspired by iskrambol, my favorite Filipino street food. When I was younger, I really loved eating iskrambols whenever it was hot. The milk powder is my favorite ^-^
The game aims to combine the nostalgia of classic freestyle food decor games and the satisfaction of adding a personalized touch to one’s creations. I was mainly inspired by Papa games (mostly Papa’s Freezeria), Boba Story, and Little Corner Tea House. I wanted to go even further with decoration mechanics, where players could rearrange ingredients, make their own recipes, and personalize their shop.
About kendikorp
My goal as kendikorp is to create Filipino-themed games inspired by my experiences. Through my games, I hope to showcase different aspects of Filipino culture and make them accessible enough for young Filipinos to appreciate and enjoy.
Iskrambol Days is my second commercial game. I’m a solo game developer who works on the game in my free time from college. I self-learned game development back in 2020 during the pandemic and had my “debut” when I got the CCP indie gamedev grant to develop Galà.
I do the code, game design, and promotional content. For stuff I can’t do like art and music, I love commissioning Filipino artists. However, I don’t love using my pocket money xD

Crowdfunding
I’m hoping to crowdfund future updates through kofi.com/kendikorp. Once the game releases, I’ll be asking for players’ suggestions for content and features through polls and posts. Then I’ll handpick some and add them to the game in future updates!
