A jam submission

Power KitchenView game page

In the chaos of a busy kitchen, power comes from the most unexpected place. Keep the energy flowing.

Power Kitchen's itch.io page

How does your game incorporate the theme?
The robots in the kitchen need electrical power to function, and the player is the one responsible for keeping them charged by reaching power stations. Without energy, the robots slow down, orders pile up, and chaos begins.
On a deeper level, the player holds power in a different sense — not by cooking, but by being the essential force that keeps the kitchen alive, even in an unexpected way.

Replaced my staff with AI, laid them all off, who's gonna complain now? The economy might crash, but I'd blame the other restaurants for using the same practices, cause I don't take responsibilities, I'm handicapped! But jokes aside, cute game, love how the music slows down after the batteries of the robots get low. 10/10 would hire robots for the job again!

Thank you for the feedback \o/

This was really cute, and the music fit super well!

I do wish there was some variety, maybe the energy drain got faster if there were more people or something like that, it got a bit monotonous after a while.

Other than that I thought it was really great, a fun twist of the normal kitchen management games like overcooked and so on, good job ^^

Adorable little game. In my headcanon the MC is a bit of a crazed scientists who serves food to an endless amount of clones of himself.

I absolutely love how the robots become slower the less charge they have and that the music slows down based on the battery level of the robots (It also seems like each robot represents one instrument in the BGM if I got that correctly?) This is a super neat touch! 

Really cool game

Developer

Yes, the music lowers its volume according to the robots' energy. It was fun to make :)
Thank you!

Oh this looks rlly good, love the music and camera! I was wondering what the controls were for this game and any main mechanics, i was wondering what was the function of the pressure plates?

Developer

You give power to the robots by standing on the pressure plates. Each color represents a robot of the same color. The robots lose energy as they work, and start to slow down
