How did you use Coplay?
I used CoPlay AI as a coding assistant to help me generate and debug parts of my game. It supported me in building and fixing systems such as the plug/unplug function, microwave and refrigerator hinge animations, microwave timer UI, and daily systems (restocking buns and hotdogs automatically, deducting rent, and randomizing customer orders).


I designed, integrated, and balanced all of these mechanics myself. CoPlay mainly helped me save time and solve technical issues during development.

Did you use any AI generated art assets in this game?

How did you utilize the theme?
The theme “You Only Get One” inspired me from a real situation. While cooking in my own kitchen, I only had one working power socket because the others were broken. That made me wonder, “What if I turned this limitation into a game?”


From that moment, I designed the main mechanic around having only one plug socket. Players must unplug and replug appliances (grill and microwave) to cook and serve customers on time, creating tension, strategy, and humor from a simple real-life limitation.

Very cool! I like the use of the theme. But I also had a bad time with the controls.

If you mind to continue with the game, let's consider to let the player to cook something without "timer" first.

Thank you so much for playing and for your feedback! 
That’s a great suggestion . For the next update, I’m planning to add two play modes:
Normal Mode (no timer, relaxed cooking) and Time Attack Mode (for those who enjoy the challenge).
I really appreciate your idea and I’m glad you liked the theme!

Making frying sausage makes a lot of frame drops, seems like you invoking RayCast and GetComponent in Update method. Maybe it will be better if you use triggers for checking these stuff?

Actually, the idea of the game is fantastic. I will wait until you fix these bugs and maybe add a multiplayer mod. :P

Also, the music theme of landlord (after the day end) is awesome.

Thanks for figuring out that bug! 
I’ll try to fix it in the next update. Glad you liked the idea and the landlord’s music.

I tried the game several times, but each time I couldn't make a single sandwich. The controls were difficult and incomprehensible, so I lost. However, I really liked the design of the bit and the interface.

Thank you so much for playing and for the honest feedback! 
I really appreciate you taking the time to try it several times , that means a lot.
I’ll definitely look into making the controls clearer or adjusting the tutorial for my next update.
Happy you liked the design and overall look! 

Same here, but it could be an interesting title. Keep working!
