Cool little game but way too much clicking. I want to be able to play this while working. You need to add an Auto Sell for dishes or Auto Sell for produced items from a specific thing like the Pan. Also, it is set up to waste a lot of food if you have for instance the Pan going into another Pan with finished bacon but the new pan breaks. It will just continuously make bacon and waste it which could run you out of money in the early stages of the game and waste a ton of money in late stages. Having stuff auto stack when it's completed would be nice too. It just fills up the screen and you have to stack it manually. On the flip side... There should be a ctr+ click to unstack

EDIT: Changing my review to thumbs down. I played for a couple of hours and got to tier 2/3 recipes from keys and they don't produce anything. I bought a fryer after learning Chiles Rellenos and when I produce it nothing happens. Game seems broken outside of the first few recipes. May try this later when stuff is fixed but not worth the time right now. /uninstall. Good luck!

its called an idle game but you have to move the finished dishes to a conveyer belt manually. no automation option. so the only way to earn money is manually drag each dish. so i would not call this an idle game. please change the name or add a automation option.

I did too much and now the game crashes upon pressing play.

I found you can stack the production pieces and block under where the first produced item is made. this allows you to for example make 10 pots, set them all up for the same recipe, stack them, and then the recipe is produced in one place. when you click the produced food it will stack each click. click until all 10 are stacked together then sell. This is much more efficient than the game "teaches" you how to play. however....

when you start setting up more than 3 or 4 recipes with 10 stacks each... the game crashes. even without stacking I imagine this relatively low limit could be reached. There needs to be a QOL improvements to allow mass production without crashing the game.

Really cool idea, hopefully this game continues to improve and grow!
