What are we cooking?
Well hello! Welcome to 2026! It's April already and as you can see there still hasn't been an update for the game.
The game is not dead. I just have less time than during the early access release, as this still is a hobby and not a profitable job.
However I've been cooking in the meantime: Nothing to show so far, but I'm reworking the entire cooking and dish preparation system to be less glitchy with physics and easier to understand.
I'm also planning to add online ordering to the game, so you receive orders that need to be brought to your customer's home. You'll be able to buy a vehicle for your restaurant, in which an employee (not the player!) is able to drive around and finish the orders.
The patch notes and improvements are getting longer and longer, but don't expect a whole different game. You'll see on core level, it's the same game. But with many improvements and new features for both graphics and gameplay.
Gonna need to improve the tutorial as well so the introduction to the game's mechanics is smoother.
Unfortunately I'll need plenty more time to make the full release, mostly playtesting will be important to hopefully bring you a polished and great-working gameplay experience in a few months!
