It was only a matter of time before Overcooked was adapted to Draw Steel. This entry provides all of the components of a solid Overcooked level: dealing with annoying pests, having one specific person that calls the shots (polder/time raider) and is probably super annoying about it, and a punishing consequence in case of failure.  It nails the theme, is perfectly laid out, and has helpful maps and tools for the director to run the encounter with ease. 

Having played Overcooked myself, my only complaint is that characters with a fly speed or the ability to jump, along with characters being able to move through each other's spaces with no penalty, makes this encounter a lot easier than its inspiration. Otherwise, great entry! 

I considered flying characters and decided that it's fine. There are a lot of character options (like the Summoner's Minion Bridge) that make the task much easier. But being able to freely move through each other's spaces is definitely something that needs to be adjusted in the future.
