"Bröther, I require the sushi!" 🍣

In an epic battle against bankruptcy, you must feed the guest room filled with hungry kittens to make them happy and earn as much money as possible - while being stuck looping around your kitchen.

Contains an in-game tutorial.
Works best in Chrome and Firefox.

  • PATCH 1: fixed the ability to loose and font scaling
  • PATCH 2: fixed a lost input binding
  • PATCH 3: fixed an edge case in money handling, that caused crashes

Very much like overcooked, but fun and well executed still. The tutorial mode worked really nicely for explaining how to go about things too.

Cute, relaxing, I don't think I really get how to play though, the tutorial made me expect catstumers to come to the chef and specifically ask for ingredients, but even after I figured out those speech bubbles had ingredients on them, I started making the sushi with the ingredients they wanted but the money never stopped going down. I don't know what I'm doing wrong!

@fupi Thank you for your feedback!
Lööp cat only tells you what to cook for the tutorial flow, otherwise its about watching your catstumers and what sushi they take - the speech bubbles only give you a rough hint.
The money only gets updated when the catstumers leave, so its intentionally delayed from you making the sushi.

Nice game. I really enjoy the music. I think the camera is a bit high, I would rather zoom in a little because is difficult to distinguish different types of food. Great work!

Fun little game, I was also expecting more hints on what to give customers besides just lobbing one of everything on the belt.

I think the belt could be a bit faster.

Well done!

Was enjoying it until the game crashed. Think from a design perspective it might be better to have a faster conveyer belt and/or design the room so that you are in the middle with customers on either side. That way you can can have two belt access points.

Love the game so far, really makes me hungry for some sushi. Although a complaint I have is that I have to blindly make a bunch of sushi and hope a catstomer takes it. I feel that hints should show up a bit more often. Maybe even consider speeding up the pace of the game a little bit? It does feel a bit slow for the food to get to catstomers.

Very nice job though! I was getting into the game after a while, and the tune is pretty catchy.

Fun little game for sure, big fan of sushi conveyor for stuck in a loop :wink: audio loop felt it fit well though I think quality of life a volume slider would've been ace, good job!
