Seaside Diner Cooking Game

A time-management game set in seaside diners

Several customers line up at the counter, each with an order card and a patience bar. The player cooks and assembles the dishes — pancakes on the griddle, milkshakes, coffee, burgers — and serves them in time, earns coins to upgrade the kitchen and opens new restaurants around the city.

The product

What it does, and for whom

A landscape-format time-management game with a wide counter, so several cooking stations and customers are on screen at once. Upgrades make equipment faster and dishes more elaborate.

Scope The publisher runs the game and its store presence. To keep the client confidential, the game's name is withheld and every image on this page is new artwork recreated for this portfolio, not a screenshot of the delivered game.

Core loop

Serving the counter

A busy moment at the diner: three customers with their orders and patience bars, and the griddle, shakes, coffee and burger stations below.

  1. Read each order

    Each customer's card shows the dish they want; the bar beside it shows their patience.

  2. Cook at the stations

    Pancakes on the griddle, shakes from the blender, coffee from the machine.

  3. Serve and earn

    Serve dishes before patience runs out and spend coins on upgrades.
