After adding a few different difficulties to Space Food Truck, our simple "quickmatch" solution for online games felt like it needed a little attention. This weekend we're testing a new solution in our "thar_be_dragons" beta branch: a lobby screen that lets you browse every available game. It's pretty simple at the moment, you can quickmatch like old times or be picky, but it lays the groundwork for our next big addition: asynchronous play. We'll also be adding some better "rejoin" functionality soon for players who get lost in space.
Also new this build: 12 new crisis scenarios (3 for each room).
If you want to help us troubleshoot the new lobby this weekend, right-click Space Food Truck in your Steam games library, click Properties, go to the betas tab and switch to "thar_be_dragons" in the dropdown. As always, let us know what you think either by posting in our Steam discussion group or emailing us directly with any issues you run into at bugs@spacefoodtruck.com.

Gameplay
Your team's goal is to complete all of your recipe objectives, which means collecting ingredients, crafting each dish, and taking it to the planet that's craving it. Each of the four unique roles aboard your ship contribute in their own way, and they'll all need to work in concert to succeed! Just like on a real space food truck.- The Captain plots your ship's course, scouring the galaxy for stronger items and tastier ingredients.
- The Chef collects ingredients that other players discover and crafts them into delicious dishes. He occasionally eats his own cards.
- The Scientist researches each of the roles on your ship, choosing which crew members to empower with new abilities. He'll sometimes stumble upon artificial ingredients.
- The Engineer repairs and upgrades the ship, which is constantly pummeled by misfortune.
Each character begins the game with a small deck of 10 cards, which you'll play to move around the ship and do your job. You must add a card to your personal deck each turn, and you'll be reshuffling and drawing items and abilities from it all game long. Your goal is to assemble the strongest, most versatile collection possible to do your job, and ultimately bring honor and glory to your food truck.
