Space is often a lonely voyage, where a sole space chef can find themselves longing for an interplanetary partner. This Valentine's Day we’re looking at romance in Space Chef and how you can make the void of space a lot more romantic. If this all looks a little familiar to our last announcement, then read to the end for some exclusive tips on how to romance the scrappy, Zoe!
There are over 30 NPCs that are now complete, boasting around 30,000 words of dialogue and a whole bunch of interesting sounds and emotions to go with their colorful personalities.
Each NPC has a distinct personality and storyline, with five of them being romanceable. The romance system has been expanded to include a unique progression path for each character - woo your favorites by gifting them their unique loved dishes.
Besides romance, each character has their own interests and plots and quests which also is a great way to get to know them better.
The romance system now comes with a heart-based visual indicator in the Gastropedia, making it easier than ever to track your progress with each character. Here’s how it works:
- Transparent Heart - You haven’t given this NPC their unique gift yet. Time to find out what they like!
- Normal Heart - You’ve given the NPC one unique gift, and they’re starting to warm up to you. This means that there are new dialog options available.
- Big Heart - You’re one step closer to becoming partners - keep those gifts coming!
- Pounding Hearts - You're now partners!
- When new dialog options are enabled, you need to choose your words wisely to advance your relationship. However, most of the time, you can always try again another day.
A friendly warning though…
Some choices you make might make the NPC and romance opportunity disappear for good, so be careful with your action...
Want to romance multiple persons?
Go ahead, we're not judging, but there might be someone watching with their big ears. We're not saying any names here…
