Cosmik Cookin'

About

Cosmik Cookin' was made for the Portland Indie Game Squad Summer Slow Jam in 2023, Me and Arin (SourInkSoda) created a game in the course of two weeks. I handled the programming while Arin handled the art, with both of us working on the story.

Story

Cosmik Cookin' is a cooking/puzzle game about a ragtag crew on a spaceship surviving on nothing but cheap frozen food, as the new chef, you must create tasty dishes using a combination of fresh ingredients and serving them to the crew, keeping spirits high as they fly across the galaxy.

Gameplay

Players must combine food together using the Cook o' Matik using various ingredients in a certain order. To find out that order, players must talk to the crew, finding hints and discovering how they have ended up in the situation they are in, they sometimes even provide ingredients to help the player.

Players must manage Bolts, the currency of the game and use that to buy ingredients. Earning Bolts is as simple as successfully making a crew member happy.

To win the player must make three crew members happy, or if they figure out how to make pizza.

Making three crew members upset will cause a game over.
