Cook, Serve, Delicious! now for iPad!
Description
Release date: Available now for iPad, Mac and PC!
Cook, Serve, Delicious is a hardcore restaurant sim, one of the few in its genre that gives the players total control over where they want to take their restaurant.

10/5- Cook, Serve, Delicious released on PC, DRM free! You can play the demo and buy the game for only $8.95 at vertigogaming.net. If we get on Steam via Greenlight, everyone who bought the game will receive a Steam key for free! (includes vertigogaming.net, Desura and Gamersgate).

Direct link to demo (54.6mb): http://www.vertigogaming.net/_files/CSDdemo1_05.exe


The game centers on an old, worn down restaurant in the SherriSoda Tower, which was once the heart of the building but closed down as business (and tenants) dropped to an all time low. But with the local economy rising back up and occupancy reaching its maximum, SherriSoda Tower has decided to bring back the old Cook, Serve, Delicious restaurant, and has given you complete control to bring it back to its old five star status of world class dining.

To do that, you’ll start with a few thousand dollars and twenty foods to choose from to put on your menu, as well as a host of restaurant equipment and more. Nearly everything is unlocked from the start of the game for you to purchase; this is your restaurant, and you must figure out the best strategy to get that restaurant packed with satisfied customers. Can you prove your culinary skills?

And if that weren’t enough, you’ll also have the opportunity to be cast in the Iron Cook television show, throw parties for offices in SherriSoda Tower, read virtual mail in your SherriSoda Tower Email account which ranges from game tips to crazy spam, from customers providing feedback to your restaurant to opportunities to being able to fund projects via “ClicknStart” and other big surprises!

With hours of content and tons of secrets and unlockables, Cook, Serve, Delicious will provide a big challenge for anyone who’s ready to take their crumbling, rat infested eatery to a luxurious Platinum Star Restaurant. Good luck!

This game was inspired by the old Japanese Ore no Ryouri series, a game that I loved and wanted to expand on. I also wanted to make the game as non-linear as possible, hence why every food is unlocked from the very start. There are so many paths you can take to attain the ultimate five star restaurant...it's completely up to you.

It's also "hardcore" in the sense that I'm not catering to anyone outside the indie gamer. This can be a difficult game, but the difficulty scales along with you. If you have a bad day and serve many bad orders, you won't get as many customers the next day. But do well and obtain positive word of mouth, and your restaurant will be even more packed the next day.

I really hope you try out the demo and I'd love feedback! I'm also planning to port the game to Mac this year, and will expand to many other platforms next year.

Its for games valve for whatever reason wouldnt pass as well as deserving indie titles, at least so far as I can tell. I mean I know there were, and still are, a lot of troll games being put up but none the less if the community would buy it, why not put it up.

Look if you want to say a lot of undeserving things have been passed, I agree, just going over whats been passed already, or hell things that got passed as fast as they did (the AVGN game for example got green lit in about a day or two so far as I can tell, and didnt really put up anything detailed about it)

but thats the nature of a public voting forum

I know, Racer X, that it's working as intended, but isn't that what Kickstarter is for?

@ caerith

actually thats exactly how green light is supposed to work. A game doesnt need to be finished to have potential.

Allready own it on iOS but damned if i wouldn't want it on steam again!

This (a polished game available elsewhere) not being available on Steam but games that haven't even been made yet getting approved is proof that Greenlight doesn't work.

Who needs to cook in real life when you can cook in virtual reality?!
Pro Tip: Add Bacon on everything.
