Overcooked
Family Friendly Gaming was given a preview
code for Overcooked on Steam. This cooking based game starts us in the
future. An evil spaghetti monster is attacking the onion kingdom.
Players must chop food quickly and deliver it to the monster. Once the
player fails then they get transported back in time to train. Team 17
Digital is publishing Overcooked in Q3 2016. Ghost Town games is the
developer of Overcooked. The graphics look okay, and the sounds are nice
in Overcooked. The low timer is what makes Overcooked really difficult.
I tried my best swapping chefs, and did worse level after level until I
could unlock no more levels. I was still in the first world. Another
problem is the controls are a bit loose in Overcooked. It can be hard to
place things properly in Overcooked.
Another issue I had with Overcooked is items cook too fast in the pot. I
can't walk another chef over to drop in the next one before it gets too
hot. Overcooked will have fires if you leave something on the burner too
long. If that were not bad enough plates have to be cleaned before they
can be used again. Only having a couple of plates added to my
frustration. If I were a paid consultant for these companies I would
tell them to add time for casual gamers, and to make a bit easier to get
things done. I see hope for Overcooked if those things are done. As the
game stands now the timing is off, and it creates real world
frustrations. It is cool to see another cooking game coming to the
market. I hope there are physical copies of Overcooked too because
digital downloads have no value.
