🔥 WE'RE BACK, CHEFS. AND WE'RE NOT MESSING AROUND. 🔥

[p]Chefs, it's been a minute. We know it. You know it. Some of you probably thought we dipped out for good.[/p][p]We didn't.[/p][p]Look, we've seen the threads. The black screen issues. The bug reports. The "last update 2022" comments. Yeah, we read all of it, and honestly? You had every right to be frustrated. Radio silence sucks. We get it. But here's the thing—we weren't ghosting you. We were in the kitchen. Cooking up something big.[/p][p]COOKING SIMULATOR VR: ENHANCED EDITION is coming, and we completely rebuilt this thing from scratch.[/p][hr][/hr][p]WHY WE WENT DARK (AND WHY IT WAS WORTH IT)[/p][p]We could've kept patching the Unity version, sure. Slap some band-aids on bugs, call it a day. But that's not what this game—or you guys—deserved. So instead, we made a call: tear it all down and rebuild it in Unreal Engine 5.5.[/p][p]Yeah. We migrated the ENTIRE game. New engine. New everything.[/p][p]That meant months of heads-down dev work. No updates. No flashy announcements. Just pure grind. And we know that looked bad from the outside. But we're here now with something that's actually worth the wait.[/p][p]We fix the ship and bring it to friendly waters.[/p][hr][/hr][p]SO WHAT'S ACTUALLY NEW? (EVERYTHING.)[/p][p]🎮 Rebuilt in Unreal Engine 5.5 – This isn't a patch. This is a full reconstruction.[/p]

• [p]Physics 2.0 – Cutting, pouring, flipping—it all feels right now. Like, actually satisfying. No more jank.[/p]
• [p]Hand tracking that doesn't suck – Your VR hands finally do what you want them to do. Precision cuts. Smooth grabs. No more yeet-the-pan-across-the-room accidents (unless you want to).[/p]
• [p]Cutting mechanics overhaul – Slicing veggies actually feels like slicing veggies. Haptics, resistance, the works.[/p]
• [p]Dynamic lighting & sun system – Cooking at sunrise hits different. The kitchen actually feels alive now with time-of-day lighting.[/p]
• [p]VFX upgrade – Fire, smoke, steam, grease splatters—all redone in crispy 4K. Your kitchen disasters have never looked this good.[/p]

[p]🥽 Quest 3 & Quest 3S Support – Yeah, we heard you. Full native support now. No compromises.[/p][p]🛠️ Community Fixes – Remember that bug you reported 2 years ago? Fixed. That UI thing? Fixed. Black screen issues? We went nuclear on those. All the stuff you've been telling us about—we went through it all. And if anything new will show as game is new we hit it strong.[/p][p]✨ New Lobby System – Fresh UI, smoother flow. Getting into the game just feels better.[/p][p]And a whole lot more QoL polish we can't fit in one post.[/p][hr][/hr][p]OH, AND ABOUT THOSE DLCs YOU'VE BEEN ASKING FOR... 🍰[/p][p]Yeah, we saw those requests too. "Where are the DLCs?" "VR needs Pizza DLC!" "Can we get desserts?"[/p][p]We heard you.[/p][p]We're already deep in development on DLC content, and the first one drops in December: 🎄 Cakes & Cookies DLC 🎄[/p][p]That's right. Just in time for the holidays. Decorate gingerbread houses. Frost layer cakes. Bake cookies from scratch. Make Christmas sweet as hell—or burn it all down trying. Your choice.[/p][p]And this is just the first DLC. We've got more cooking up for 2026 and beyond. Desserts are just the beginning.[/p][p]Christmas is going to be sweet, chefs. 🍪[/p][hr][/hr][p]THE REAL TALK[/p][p]We know trust is earned, not given. We went quiet for too long, and that's on us. But we're not asking you to trust us because we say this is better. We're asking you to try it when it drops and judge for yourself.[/p][p]This Enhanced Edition is our way of saying: we're still here, we still care, and we're not done with this game.[/p][p]Whether you're a day-one player who stuck around or someone who refunded because of bugs—we see you. This update is for everyone who believed this game could be more.[/p][hr][/hr][p]WHAT YOU'RE GETTING[/p][p]🌟 Next-Gen VR Immersion – UE5.5 visuals, 4K resolution, overhauled physics, dynamic lighting. This is what the game was always meant to be.[/p][p]👨‍🍳 Precision Cooking – Improved hand tracking and cutting mechanics = actual control. You're the chef now.[/p][p]🥩 100+ Ingredients & Tools – Steaks, salmon, blowtorches, chaos. Mix and match however you want.[/p][p]📖 Realistic Recipes – Learn actual cooking techniques, or just go full Gordon Ramsay and flamethrow everything.[/p][p]💥 Chaos Mode Still Intact – Fires? Explosions? Kitchen disasters? Oh, they're here. And they look GLORIOUS in 4K.[/p][p]🎯 Career & Sandbox – Grind through orders and unlock skills, or just vibe in sandbox with infinite ingredients and zero consequences.[/p][hr][/hr][p]TO THE COMMUNITY:[/p][p]Thank you for sticking around. Thank you for the bug reports. Thank you for the memes, the clips, and the "is this game dead?" threads. You kept us honest.[/p][p]This Enhanced Edition is built with your feedback baked into every system. Every fix. Every improvement.[/p][p]We're back. And we're here to stay.[/p][p]Drop your Steam IDs below if you want to be notified when this goes live. Let's cook. 🔪[/p][hr][/hr][p]Enhanced Edition release dropping in October 2025[/p][p]Cakes & Cookies DLC coming December 2025.[/p][p]— Big Cheese Studio[/p]
