👨🍳👩🍳 Greetings Chefs!
Time to take your gamepads out! We're happy to announce that Kebab Chefs has now full controller support! Also you can enjoy the fully designed and tested Steam Deck experience!
We encourage you to play with any XBox, Playstation or Steam Controller.
🎮 CONTROLLER & STEAM DECK SUPPORT
Enjoy a seamless cooking experience from the comfort of your couch. Your kitchen, your rules! Anywhere you play!👨🍳🕹️🔥
We’re actively working on bringing Kebab Chefs to console platforms with the full release! Stay tuned for updates as we continue expanding our kitchen.
🍕NEW PIZZA RECIPES
Pizza lovers, rejoice! We’ve fully revamped our pizza recipes and visuals to deliver the tastiest and most authentic pizza making experience.
Also we've added brand new pizza recipes you can unlock by mastering your pizza making skills! Of course, we couldn't think of a Kebab Chefs without the Kebab Pizza!
You can now unlock these new Pizza recipes:
- BBQ Chicken Pizza
- Veggie Pizza
- Pepperoni Pizza
- Kebab Pizza
- Meat Lover's Pizza
🍽️ MENU SYSTEM REVAMPED
One of the things that we've not been favoring about Kebab Chefs was preparing a menu for the day. It's cool to have a daily menu every day. But the problem with the current menu system was that it was being quite dull. There were no parameters or conditions that can influence the way we prepare our daily menu.
That's why we felt the need to give a purpose for creating a menu every day. This is where food tags come in!
Bakery - Chicken - Fast Food - Kebab - Luxury - Pizza - Soup - Vegetarian - World Cuisine
Now we have all of our recipes tagged with 9 relative culinary categories and their unlock progression over those tags.
Also each of these tags have their unique menu bonuses which you can combine and benefit from! You can find the current bonus table on the left side of your menu.
You can unlock new recipes by leveling up each category on it's own!
What About Already Existing Saves?
As you know, Kebab Chefs is still in early access and can still may get save resetting features until the full release. But it's not the case now.
We also made a merging between the old and new system that can predict the levels on each category according to your game progress. So you can just continue from where you left off. But you're always welcome to start a new run to get the full new experience!
🍹NEW PUB GAME
💥 BREAKABLES
Ever felt the urge to dramatically slam down a plate after a stressful service? Now you can! Plates and Beer mugs are now fully destructible! Whether it’s an accident or just a burst of kitchen rage, shattering ceramics has never looked or sounded so satisfying.
Just be careful... broken dishes don’t clean themselves. 😉
