What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We have been working on Little Chef: Cozy Cooking for over 2 years. During this time we noticed that the game always improves the most whenever we playtest it and see what combinations people come up with. With Early Access, everyone gets to enjoy the game much earlier at a discounted price while we are able to gather valuable feedback and shape the game based on your wishes, suggestions and ideas.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We are roughly planning with a 6 month Early Access period.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We are planning on adding one more full and final level in addition to more sound design, music, more languages and a bunch more polish.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“All features found in the "About This" section on our Steam page are implemented. There are 2 fully playable levels and a separate level for the games story with currently over 170 dishes to create.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We plan on slightly increasing the price once we leave Early Access.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We are actively looking for feedback, ideas and bug reports to constantly improve the game. The best place to get in contact with us and help us improve Little Chef: Cozy Cooking, is by joining our Community on Discord.
We are also working on a way to submit feedback or feature requests directly in the game.”

About This Game

Little Chef: Cozy Cooking is a short game where you experiment in the kitchen.

You can drag, toss, and combine ingredients in fun and surprising ways, to fill your cookbook with over 300 recipes, ranging from the gourmet to the gross. The game is about 3 hours long.

KITCHEN SANDBOX

Get messy in the kitchen! Everything has weight, motion and personality. Drag and drop items, or throw them around. So, mix and match, toss and break things to complete your to do list.

COUNTLESS SECRETS

Not all ingredients are easy to find. Every cabinet and shelf is chock-full of hidden ingredients waiting to be uncovered. Some are hidden, others are locked away, and solving these puzzles might mean thinking creatively.

CHAOTIC ACHIEVEMENTS

Behind every kitchen nook and cranny are achievements that reward you for bending the rules of the kitchen. To solve the game’s most challenging puzzles, players will need to throw out the recipe book, roll up their sleeves, and think outside the box.

THE TEAM

Hello! We are a small group of friends who wanted to make a cute game about cooking. We started this project in the end of 2024 and this will be is our first commercial release!

Our team is Julien (game designer & co-creator), Erika (artist & co-creator), Danny (programmer) and Kristin (narrative desiger) and Tumult Kollective (audio design).

Most of us work on this project part time but we love experimenting, learning, and pushing their ideas as far as their own skills, time, and personal investment allow us. And we hope you will enjoy our creation :)
