Potato Planet Driller by Corbak


LORE
Nobody knows what happen to our planet but you and your crew aren't one to ask question. You saw an opportunity for good Potato Cash and you didn't hesitate ! You bought a drill, repurposed it and now adventure and money await.
Dive into a mouthwatering world where the earth itself is made of ingredients! In this fast-paced local co-op adventure, pilot a powerful food-mining drill deep underground to unearth culinary treasures. Burrow through layers of potato plains, meat meadows, and vegetable veins while your creation is cooking in the oven. Work together inside your cramped culinary contraption to craft delicious recipes but don't let your masterpiece to long on the fire or you might ruin it
HOW TO PLAY

Your goal is to collect ingredients running through it and assemble them to make recipes. Then you can sell them with the computer.

Itβs not always clear what to deliver and where β maybe having specific tasks like in Overcooked would help. But overall, it was a fun experience!
@gquibao Thank you for your amazing comment! And thanks for the compliment on the chara design, i even made their voice myself :) it was funny. You can indeed play with a friend locally if you have some controllers. It's even more fun since you can bump into each other, it was the idea.
Also about to figure out things out, yeah it's a bit rough on the edges but will see if we can manage to make that better or not, thanks for the feedback and about your wish to see it expanded into a final product, that means a lot! :)
Thank you for your wonderful comment and for having trying out our game, means a lot!
@moogs thank you for your time playing our game, that's really nice of you :)
@ronalchue Thank you for your comment, you are definitely right it's a bit rough on the edges. Will take your advice !
@monogatari Thank you for your comment, and yeah it's inspired by those game. Definitely had fun making it! :) The music is credited to HATMIX there is a link on the description it wasn't us who have done it, but thank you ! :)
@dominic-graziano Thank you for your comment and your time trying the game, means a lot !
@wolfier thank you for your feedback! I agree we should have done better in designing space. Originally we wanted to have more layouts but couldn't implement it but your comment is valuable feedback, thanks !
@beeb-gamecodecompany it's fine buddy! I already thank you for playing and writing a cool feedback, that's very nice of you. And fair is fair! I'm glad you liked the doggy and music pick. I had a lot of fun creating the characters :)

We couldn't implement all the gamification like using the money or expanding the list of the recipes, but definitely it's the idea you summarized.
Thanks again for trying it !
