It is me or you have some odd liking with fat people or even a fetish? Because this is the fifth time in which you post ridiculously obese characters into your games.
Please, we need a longer version of this! It's amazing how you're still able to make your characters lovable and relatable when your games are generally short. Props to you!
Zed my guy are u makin a another game like this I LOVE THIS TYPES OF GAMES ur my dream developer BUT PLEASE MAKE A ANOTHER game like this i played both games i shall support u till i die
absolutely fun short game!! I got so joyful with the good ending that I got. So I thought of giving a little fanart as a thank you! Please make more games, looking forward!
this game is so good i like how you can keep an eye ouside to see if the shadow catcher and i like how he got faster at the door and the final night he aslo gose to the kitcen i rate it 10/9.7
The game was a lot of fun, and I was surprised how long the game is. I did have to play through the game on easy mode, mainly because I spent most of the time writing down what they wanted and working it out, the questions were easy, it just felt tedious to repeatedly have to do it each time you die. Really glad the easy mode was there, as it felt a lot smoother for me.
Played through the game again to see what you did should the player fail every serving, I was surprised to see there was more than just a game over screen. Though I am curious if there are more variations to the ending than the ones I found.
The video I made is heavily cut down. I think I must have played for nearly two hours, but I was very cautious and ended up waiting out for the shadowcatcher to come in before I would continue working.
Had a lot of fun in the game, and I am also really glad that we were unable to burn food so I could take my time hiding.
I played this game on my other acc and I'd say this game is very very good.. I love the story and mechanics behind.. hoping you get recognition like last time for your game.. anyways can't wait for the next one you will make 🥸🥸
Hi there, I am DragonExplosion and I am a Youtuber. If you like my videos, please leave a like and subscribe at my channel.
This was an amazing horror game that I enjoyed and I liked that the game is using the concept of the creator's previous game, The Man from the Window, into a whole other game universe of 2 people who are having troubles with keeping their diner and getting customers. Surprisingly, I actually got attracted to the game due to the font used for the game as it looked really familiar to me (Because I played one of the previous games that the creator made before...)
I liked how the kitchen is actually functional and there are actual steps in cooking the dishes where all the ingredients are placed in containers and organised nicely into three separate refrigerators and pots and plates are also organised nicely. Moreover, a functional tap and stove (with fire animation) and also the animation for fully cooked food on the grill was amazing.
I actually thought that I finished the game after completing the first night before suddenly realising that maybe there is more to the game so I went ahead with the second and third nights, making me realise how difficult the game can be if the creator wants to make the game even more difficult than it is. I have chosen to play Easy Mode for the game as I am definitely not going to take the difficulty of the game lightly (After experiencing The Man from the Window). I was surprised that the creator added variation into the game where the Shadowcatcher behaves differently on each night (Difficulty increases).
The use of lighting and sound played a huge role in this game, making use of audio cues to alert the player when to hide and the lighting was used really well to create a dark and scary atmosphere. You can tell that I was always on my toes or you can also say, PARANOID, worried about the Shadowcatcher 24/7.
I liked how the storyline of the game flow nicely as the nights continue and I also loved the ending of the game at the end. I had a pretty good laugh when I saw that many customers and the Shadowcatcher... Furthermore, I love the star that appears on the title screen after you complete the game. It is very, very satisfying for some reason XD.
Thank you for reading my comment and I wish you good luck in your future endeavours.
Saving my friend's diner business has never been so difficult - excellent game!
I love original takes on the popular genre of horror, which has been adopted by many developers, yet, not all of them can twist the narrative in a way, that is immersive and unique. This game definitely servers justice to the great atmosphere, neat design and overall is a solid piece of art.
The family dynamic changes, based on the difficulty and that makes the game even more immersive. I never realized that changing from "simple" to "normal" can influence the gameplay. This speaks high quality and dedication, considering the fact that based on your portfolio, you are a solo developer. Fantastic.
Sound design is perfect. The animation of the truly 3 dimensional characters is decent. The conversations are a bit jokey and fun, thus more relatable and calming, while the Dreamcatcher antagonist is mysterious and literally haunting.
Now, there is a minor complaint, which I hope you can adapt as an constructive criticism. The gameplay is simple, you serve food to the family of the shadows and avoid Shadowcatcher, yet, there are some head scratching moments, when the AI actually catches me and I have to restart the game. Specifically, the game poorly indicates what exactly Samantha has to do to avoid the monster. Addition to that, Maude just stays near the counter and I thought she would move, but she did not, so, does Shadowcatcher sees her too and if so, is there a way to move her? It was kind of overwhelming with that part. Nevertheless, I got 1 ending.
Definitely recommend everyone to check out this game and try it out. Maybe they enjoy the challenge, maybe not, but this is worth the time. Bravo developer! 👌

How do you place plates after you pick them up?
If you've picked something up, just right click to drop it. :)
I'm now realizing I didn't add that bit into the Controls section, whoops.
I'll have to fix that.
Also with the mac and cheese it didnt say you had to put the buns on the plate to get the mac and cheese on it
Well the game was updated so its fixed now ig
Awesome combination of cooking sim and horror. Great job!
Thank you very much! :)
And thank you for playing, as well.
Wow, what an enjoyable little game, never smiled at the ending like that before. Hope to see more of these games.
It's good to hear that the ending was to your liking!
There's more in store for the future, and I'll do my best not to disappoint. :)
that was dope . nice game
Excellent! Glad to hear you've also enjoyed the game.
Thanks for playing. :)
Man the full ending was so surprisingly wholesome, I love it.
Maude's coffee is so creamy looking, but we dont see any creamer in the fridge...Hmmm Guess thats one way to save money on resources.
This game is so much fun, and you knocked it out the park with the many big diverse body types. Worth every penny.
Thank you very much for your kind comment, and I'm glad you've enjoyed the game!
I'll be sure to do my very best on future titles, as to not disappoint wonderful supportive players such as yourself. :)
Lost 40 bucks in a statement and had no listing then I remembered, I donated this to Maude's diner adventure.
Cant believe im looking forward to your games more than most triple A games coming soon.
You are far too kind, thank you again. :)
what engine do you make your games in? :0
Unity. :)
thank you <3
I like this persons games
Thank you very much!
The kindness is appreciated. :)
It is me or you have some odd liking with fat people or even a fetish? Because this is the fifth time in which you post ridiculously obese characters into your games.
lol
It's an artistic choice. :)
Ah ok sorry if what I said sounds rude.
It was a very good and fun game I enjoyed it very much.
(btw if you stand right at the door and where the shadow comes out in the kitchen they won't see you and you can cheese it)
Glad you enjoyed the game, thanks for playing! :)
Also, I could have sworn I checked for that specific part during development, but I must have broken something at some point.
Thanks for telling me, I'll hopefully be able to patch that out soon.
After the update i decided to test if the blindspot still worked.
I tested it and it didn't work so great job on fixing it props to you.
Awesome! Thanks for telling me about the issues, by the way. I appreciate the help. :)
I tend to be my own worst enemy when it comes to bugfixing, so thankfully it all worked out this time.
Please, we need a longer version of this! It's amazing how you're still able to make your characters lovable and relatable when your games are generally short. Props to you!
This is an extremely kind and generous comment, and I really appreciate it!
Thank you very much. There's a lot more things planned for the future, so hopefully I can properly live up to expectations. :)
Zed my guy are u makin a another game like this I LOVE THIS TYPES OF GAMES ur my dream developer BUT PLEASE MAKE A ANOTHER game like this i played both games i shall support u till i die
Such enthusiasm!
Yes, there are more projects planned for the future.
Maybe not exactly like this one, but in the same general category as my current games. :)
Does all your games take place in the same universe ?
Most of them do, yes. :)
can u make a baby mode so der is no shadow catcher
That's a good idea. Something like that was planned during development, but was eventually dropped.
If enough people want me to add such a mode, I definitely will. :)
Thanks for the suggestion.
Wow, that's amazing! :D
It's an honor to have fanart made of my games, especially art as good as this.
Thank you very much, and I'm glad you enjoyed the game. :)

Once again, thanks for playing, I appreciate it very much. :)
So are there only 3 endings? I'm guessing there's a different ending if you cook them the wrong food.
Btw amazing game. I had lots of fun.
That's awesome to hear, glad you enjoyed the game! :)
Thanks for playing.
Thanks! and I got the 4th ending lmao. Honestly this was super fun and also nerve racking at times haha. I gave it a 5 star.
Excellent! The reviews are always appreciated. :)

Thank you very much for this comment! :)
I appreciate it very much.
Checking the controls should help with most of the confusions the player may have, so I may need to improve the visibility.
I will take your words to heart, thank you again.
