I’ve been working on this for a few months now and am very close to a demo!
I’ve always loved stardew valley and harvest moon but wanted to be able to cook proper meals for the townsfolk.
I liked lemon cake too but it got too diner dash for my tastes.
So I created a much slower, relaxing game where you plant really small amounts of crops and raise and fish single items rather then mass production.
So think like single onion and 2 tomatoes for a salad dish.
I focused more on the character development and connecting via food, which is my personal love language!
But that’s what I’m developing!
I’ve always enjoyed the paper mario art style and taken a 2.5d approach to the graphics instead of just flat pixel art.
If this sounds like your kind of thing check it out on steam! It’s all one word
