About This Demo

Welcome to the Flame, Cats & Kitchen Demo!

Experience the core loop of a cozy cooking game where the culinary process unfolds in a handmade cardboard diorama world. This version introduces you to the fundamental kitchen management mechanics and lets you test the basic workflow without any stressful time limits.

What's available in the demo:

Production and Storage: Create basic ingredients yourself and use the fridge for smart inventory management before your guests arrive.

Preparation (Prep Phase): Process ingredients into food blanks, building an efficient production chain for future orders.

Cooking Process: Manage the heat on your cardboard stoves by giving fire to the burner and taking it back when needed, bringing dishes to perfection without burning them.

Service: Take orders and serve cooked meals to your first fluffy clients — adorable crayon-drawn cats.

Unique DIY Aesthetics: Enjoy a visual style where every single element looks as if it were genuinely cut out of cardboard and hand-colored.

Demo Limitations:

This build is exclusively focused on the core cooking loop. Advanced fire spirit mechanics (green, blue, and red flames), economy, equipment purchasing, restaurant upgrades, and menu expansion are currently in development and will be featured in the full game.

If you enjoy the visual style and the core concept, please wishlist Flame, Cats & Kitchen! Be sure to leave your feedback on how the current Core Loop feels — this will help us polish the balance and logic before the full release.
