Cooking Simulator 2 Devlog #6 - Containers 🥗👨‍🍳👌



Hi Chefs!👨‍🍳

Let’s check some of the new handy features that will turn cooking in Cooking Simulator 2: Better Together into something even more professional!

While creating the game we focus on improving the gameplay, which is based on recreating lifelike cooking in a professional kitchen.

In Cooking Simulator 2: Better Together your task will be to prepare various meals for the restaurant’s guests simultaneously! That’s why you will have Chef’s little helpers at your disposal in the game. One of them may seem small but how important – a stainless steel container!

[h3]CONTAINERS 👌[/h3]

You already know that we introduced some changes in the BIG KITCHEN. First of all, you’ll have separate work stations for cutting and preparing products. This is also the place where you can transfer products into the containers. They’ll have different sizes and you’ll be able to mark them with colorful stickers!

In the heart of the Big Kitchen we have designed two islands – as you know, we’ll introduce a coop mode in the game! On each island there are two assembly stations. It means that you will be able to prepare not only one dish but four different meals at the same time! Each assembly station has a place for 8 containers, which gives us as many as 32 containers max.


It’s important to add that at the end of the day if you have some ingredients left, you can store them in the fridge in the containers. It’ll extend the freshness of products. And if you’d like to run this place as a professional Chef you can prepare the ingredients in larger quantities in advance in the morning or in the evening for the next day’s cooking! How cool is that 😃

We’ll be revealing more tasty details soon! If you want to stay up-to-date with news and announcements wishlist and follow Cooking Simulator 2: Better Together on Steam!🚀

These sounds are like kitchen magic that makes the whole experience feeling real. The sounds help you imagine being in a real kitchen, and that makes the game much more enjoyable!

We’ve teamed up with Folia Soundstudio to elevate your virtual cooking experience even higher!🚀

Cooking Simulator 2 Devlog #4 - Big Kitchen 👨‍🍳🍽️🍲



Hi Chefs!👨‍🍳

For sure you’ve noticed that our games are marked by extraordinary realism and attention to detail. In Cooking Simulator 2: Better Together we did our best to create the Big Kitchen space as close as possible to real kitchens, which are the heart of every restaurant. A space where you’ll feel like a real Chef doing real Chef’s tasks. Learn how we did that! 💛


We did tons of research, and the whole team explored the facilities that make up a full-fledged restaurant kitchen. Our aim was to design a kitchen that will be functional, ergonomic and comfortable for you to use with one twist – it was being developed for more players as our upcoming game will have co-op mode. We also examined how you, the players, used the kitchen in Cooking Simulator and made some reasonable changes!🎮

So what can you expect in the Big Kitchen in Cooking Simulator 2: Better Together❔🤔

You already know that in the heart of the kitchen there are two large kitchen islands with stoves on one side and an assembly station on the other as well as some free space to put things away. To make it easier for you to play in the coop mode we’ve also doubled the number of grills, ovens, deep fryers and sinks. Against the wall there are two separate places with worktops for chopping and preparing ingredients before taking them to the kitchen island for processing and assembly. And containers will be of great help here! 🍳

On each island there are two assembly stations. It means that you will be able to prepare ingredients and make four different dishes at the same time! You will be able to prepare ingredients at the beginning of each day in larger quantities and keep them in the containers with stickers. But watch out! This time ingredients will lose their freshness if you leave them out of the fridge overnight!🌿


There are also two refrigerators at your disposal. You can use the first one in the kitchen to extend product freshness or prepare your ingredients already for the next day's cooking and plan yourself what you want to have on hand. The second one is in the pantry where you will find meat, fish and pre-ordered shopping. We’ve designed quite a lot of space in the pantry as in Cooking Simulator 2: Better Together there will be a lot of ingredients! 🧀

Therefore, one of your tasks will be careful management of the available space. There is also one improvement we hope you’ll love – you can take a lot of ingredients with you back to the kitchen using a tray that will pop up spontaneously!🥩

The whole process was very exciting and we hope that cooking in the Big Kitchen will be an utmost fun for you Chefs! Let us know what you think! 🔥

Cooking Simulator 2 Devlog #3 - Creating recipes ✍️🔥🍳



Hi Chefs!👨‍🍳

Do you know this feeling when you rub your hands together and say: “Ok, so now let’s try with this one!”? Cooking Simulator 2: Better Together will give you even more opportunities for being creative and experimenting. After all, it's a Chef's task to surprise the guests with new dishes, meet their tastes and special requests. All to build the restaurant’s good reputation.🏆

And if you hope for more freedom in creating recipes then YES! We know that you’ve been waiting for this one!

Designing dishes is an integral part of the gameplay in our upcoming game. Imagine that you can swap ingredients in a dish and adjust a thermal or mechanical treatment. Imagine that you can manage a detailed preparation path for each dish and change any step you want to try out new things or create your favourite dishes. Like real Chefs do. Are you excited?🤩


To help you in experimenting and keeping track with new discoveries, we’ve developed a recipe creator that we’ve called a blueprint system. It was designed by our team specifically for Cooking Simulator 2: Better Together. How cool is that?😎

Let us explain what it actually means! While making progress in the game you will gain cooking experience and unlock recipes just like in Cooking Simulator. But this time you will also have access to the recipe creator that will give you the possibility to design a detailed preparation path for each dish including the ingredients, thermal treatment like: cooking, frying, baking, roasting, grilling, boiling and mechanical treatment like: mixing, straining, blending, coating as well as seasoning, cutting and flipping.



Imagine this situation. You get the order of preparing let’s say – a burger. In the blueprint system you will have a basic recipe and you will be able to prepare its variations starting from ingredients to serving. It means that for example you will be able to prepare meat or vegetarian feeling and use different kinds of vegetable slices and seasoning. If you decide that some stage needs improvement – you can do that by adding, removing or replacing any step you want.🍔


Thanks to the recipe creator you can unleash your cooking creativity!💡
