Galactic Chef has had a lot of big updates, with more coming soon. I'll play through the latest version of the pilot episode, show off some of what's new, and answer as many questions as I can!
For anyone new to Galactic Chef, this is a game all about mastering unfamiliar ingredients in procedurally-generated seasons of a cooking competition show from another galaxy. To win the title of Galactic Chef you'll need to beat the clock and out-score NPCs with their own procedurally-generated dishes.
Thanks to random generation, I'll be playing with ingredients I've never seen before. Let's see how long it takes me to beat my own game! If there's time left over after the pilot episode, I'll explore a bit of the full-season mode preview.
Galactic Chef is a fast-paced cooking competition show game with procedurally generated ingredients and voxel-based cooking simulation. Your dishes are scored by alien judges on flavor, texture, ambition, technical execution, and the unique requirements of each challenge. Can you make it to the finale and win the ultimate title of Galactic Chef?
Procedurally Generated Content Each season of Galactic Chef comes with new ingredients, challenges, judge preferences, and NPCs who will generate never-before-seen dishes. Every game is unique if you want it to be, or you can share your RNG seed so you and your friends can play with the same ingredients and challenges.
Dynamic Simulation Behind the pixel art is a complex voxel-based cooking simulation. The unique properties of each substance determine how voxels react to heat, moisture, damage, and more. Solids can melt, liquids can boil, and you can even sculpt your foods in 3D with the laserboard.
Tastelize Everything You Tastelizer will tell you everything you need to know, from flavor balance and texture variety to hazards you'll need to address before serving the food. Just don't use your actual tongue - we don't know how many of these ingredients are toxic to humans.
Beat the Clock! Each challenge lasts 5-10 minutes, so you'll have to think fast to plan and execute a better dish than your opponents within the time limit.
Unlockable Content Every season you win will earn you new prizes - new equipment, guest judges, ingredients, kitchen skins, and more. No DLC, no microtransactions.
