Howdy everyone!
We know it’s been a minute since we said we’d bring you some news, but today we’re finally ready to let the cat out of the bag:
A Multiplayer version of American Cooking Simulator is officially in development!
You can already check out the Steam page here. Wishlist it to stay updated on further release info!
A lot of you have been asking for multiplayer ever since this project first came out, so we’re really excited to share this with you. This new version is much bigger in scope and way more complex, so we’re now working together with our publisher Artex. Stay tuned for more news in the future.
So what’s happening to this version of American Cooking Simulator?
There will be a few changes soon:
The name of this app will change to “ACS”. So basically just the acronym. We do this because we want to avoid confusion between this old version and the new Multiplayer title when you look for it in the Steam search.
This version will be retired. Don't worry, if the game is already in your library, you won't lose access to it. You will still be able to play the singleplayer version as much as you want. Retiring simply means new players won’t be able to add it anymore, and it won’t appear in Steam search.
No more updates here. All development time goes into the Multiplayer version now (and has been for a few while, which is why we've been so quiet here). But your feedback from this release is directly influencing it, and we’re using everything we learned to make the new game better.
And lastly, a big thank you to everyone who's played the game!
When we released ACS as a free student project back in February, we never expected it to gain this much attention. Your support, feedback, and chaotic burger-cooking antics made this whole journey possible.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask — we’ll answer as many as we can!
