Neon Noodles #11 - The Companion UpdateImportant: this update is currently on the beta branch only!
This is quite a significant update, but some things are not finalized, so it only goes into the beta branch on Steam for now.
Here are the major changes:
[olist]
Completely new Companion - this covers all the "non-game" part of the game, and it sets the stage for how the story will be delivered too.
- Full mouse, controller and keyboard support for the companion
- Dynamic color change based on level
New tutorial - this is a video-based approach, vaguely inspired by Frostpunk.
- New levels/introduction to key concepts
- A read/unread flag for all of the tutorial entries
- Tutorial entries available for later viewing in the Companion
Level start transitions - a "scanline" approach to fading the levels in that provides depth, while being very performance focused
Performance improvements - some of this was for the new stuff, but lots of work went into performance. Timeline performance still needs addressing, but that's a bigger piece for a future update.
Some UI/look changes and working towards eventual consistency and what buttons are and how they behave across the entire game.
All music is now back into the game (currently just randomized, not location-specific)
Lots of other small changes, including shadows/lighting improvements, bugfixes, etc.
[/olist]
Here's an example on how the "scanline" transition looks for the Asian location:

Set in a dark and mysterious cyberpunk world, you are in charge of the futuristic food factory known as Neon Noodles. Inspired by the open-ended machine-building puzzle games of Zachtronics such as Opus Magnum and Infinifactory, you design and build your own fully automated kitchen to prepare meals using robot chefs. Guacamole, bibimbap, ramen, spaetzle, paella and many more recipes are waiting for you to be optimized.
Features
- Automate your robot chefs through an intuitive record-and-replay system where you control the robot that creates the program, then edit it later if needed.
- Customize your cooking loops to be as simple, elaborate or streamlined as you want and compare your wits with other players around the world on the global leaderboards
- Solve endlessly replayable open-ended puzzles with over 100 recipes from around the world consisting of 200 unique ingredients.
- Travel the world and master the art of cooking through technological advancement in a cyberpunk setting filled with mysteries.
