The second playtest starts!

Dear Chefs,

We are happy to announce that we are conducting another playtest starting from today, May 1st! If you missed the previous one, it is your chance to try Abra-Cooking-Dabra before it’s out.

How to access the playtest?
It’s easy! Just go over to Abra-Cooking-Dabra Steam page and press a button.

What has changed compared to the first playtest?
  • The content and the number of missions are the same - this is so players can feel the difference between the two versions more easily.
  • Added some UX improvements.
  • Difficulty has been slightly increased (time for completing orders has been lowered).
  • Localisation was updated.
  • BEEEEEAAAANNNNS! recipe was updated.
  • Multiple technical fixes and performance improvements.
Have fun, and as always, we’ll be waiting for your feedback!

Yours, the Door 407 dev team

Chef’s Diary. Part 9

Hi, chefs!

What is essential for any kitchen? Of course, it is utensils! So today I’ll show you what I use.

The most important chef’s tool is definitely a knife. You can’t cook anything if you can’t cut it. I already have two, and believe me - the more experienced a chef, the more knives they have!

Then I have a grater. It really helps with some dishes, but isn’t required for all. Still, it’s nice to keep one around!

And of course there is also a pan and a pot. I don’t cook only salads here, you know! And you need something to cook on: a stove. I have that too!

There’s also a variety of plates and sauce plates. Some are disposable, and once a dish is served they go in trash. Others can be used multiple times - but I need to wash them first. Luckily, for that I have a sink!
And that's it for today from your Royal Chef!

Chef’s Diary. Part 8

Hi, chefs!

Last time I explained a bit about seeds I grow in my garden. But there’s more! Beside the first seed pack, I have another one. It contains potato, asparagus, watercress, parsnip, swede and leeks!


The planting process is the same, but cooking… Dishes are much more complex with these ingredients. I need to boil, roast, stew, bake and so much more. My head is spinning!

And that's it for today from your Royal Chef!
