Cook or be cooked.

In this chaotic top-down survival game, hostile vegetables sprout around you. A soldier like you decides to survive off of the flesh of fellow plants... All while making bank. 

Murder your ingredients in cold blood and combine them to craft dishes that restore health, thirst, or sell your dishes to a mysterious pigeon (which is also an arms dealer?) and save money to purchase powerful weapons. Do so while blasting bok choy with your trusty arsenal of weapons!

The theme “Compound” is at the core: you combine (compound) ingredients into dishes to survive. Strategic cooking becomes just as important as combat.

This game was made with team of 2 in 72 hours for Melon Jam 6.

We hope you enjoy it!

Made with Godot


Noticed 2 bugs:

  • Bok choy health starts at 66% percent instead of 100%,
  • shadows stay on plants for like a second after death


- A waves system with rising difficulty.

- Dishes give special buffs, (speed, health, etc.)

- Bosses after every 10 rounds.

- New, better music.

- A inventory on the side that doesn't pause. (for extra chaos)

Nice! After some tries I finally manage to overcome the difficulty and reach stability.

I am very glad you enjoyed playing! (and it is quite a hard game, not a skill issue lol)

Nice Job! Its very hard, I feel like I can´t do anything. Its really quite Amazing!

thanks, did you try out freeplay tho? (yea it is on the harder side, takes a couple attempts to get a hang of)

So fun! Have some funny glitches and the IU/menus work strange, but for a game made on 72 hours is so good! If you can nerf the thirst can be great, die by that is just so easy lol
And is enemy generation random? At one point, carrots stopped appearing for me

(1 edit)

yea its random, also they are chili’s. Thanks for the feedback though! Also what UI menus don’t work properly?

OMG HII thank you 😏😏😼 we will definitely fix that

Funny game, love it but a little bit hard for me lol

(1 edit)

honestly same, thats why I added freeplay mode. But its quite a fun challenge

thank you!! it'll definitely take time to get better at the game!

This game's fun. The music is catching, art style is neat and the gameplay itself is very fun. I especially liked the voice acting, it's peak
