changedThis is a patch that makes some changes to the overall game balance, with a significant change to the ticket system, and some quality of life changes to grilling and controls.
changedI was made aware that many people find the game to be almost impossible after the 10 minute mark, since the game previously progressed linearly, with the pace increasing as the game went on. I've decided to make some changes, that makes you have some control over the pace of the game.
changedIncreased the max pace window (previously it was a window of 0-10 seconds, now it's 0-20 seconds).
changedWhen ingredients on the grill are cooked 100%, they stay at 100% for 5 seconds, giving you a window of time. Previously there was no window of time. This will make multitasking on the grill easier.
addedAdded a mouse sensitivity slider in the settings.
addedAdded a 'Reset' button in the settings to get back to the default settings. (Make sure to click 'Apply'!)

  • Every ticket you successfully send off, will decrease the pace.

  • When you successfully clear the pass (no tickets), the pace will decrease by double the amount of a regular ticket send off.

  • Increased the max pace window (previously it was a window of 0-10 seconds, now it's 0-20 seconds).

Some more quality of life and fairness changes:

  • When ingredients on the grill are cooked 100%, they stay at 100% for 5 seconds, giving you a window of time. Previously there was no window of time. This will make multitasking on the grill easier.

  • Added a mouse sensitivity slider in the settings.

  • Added a 'Reset' button in the settings to get back to the default settings. (Make sure to click 'Apply'!)
