- Too Many Cooks Update v0.6.0 - 18 April 2024
Patch notes v0.6.0: Daily challenges and online leaderboards *Every day is a new challenge! All players start with the same seed meaning you're competing with the same exact run as others! You will start with a random upgrade and a debuff such as no legendary upgrades for the run. These challenges change every day, so be sure to check back!*The daily challenges and regular runs have their own leaderboards. Other changes include: *Pineapple changed from 5% > 10% for enemies to drop second collectible*Burger patty now targets closest enemy on first bounce only, all bounces after will be random*Legendary ingredient and meal upgrades now only available after a boss fight*Adjusted the increase in enemy health, experience, and speed*Rebuilt upgrade system to accommodate incorporating seeds*Improved UI in menu rooms *Changed sausage from 20% less common upgrades to 10% chance to heal fully whe…
- Too Many Cooks Update v0.5.5 - 18 March 2024
Patch notes v0.5.5: *Biggest change is the upgrade percentage increases. Before, most upgrades were calculated from current stat rather than base stat. This means if you had 200 damage and chose the 25% damage increase, your damage would go up to 250. Now the increase is calculated from your base damage, i.e., what you started the run with. That means if you started the run with 50, a 25% damage increase will give you 12.5 damage, regardless of your current damage. This is also reflected in reload rate, fire rate, and movement speed upgrades. *Characters and weapons are now unlockable when beating the current level as opposed to the new level, i.e., you don’t need to beat the teppanyaki restaurant to unlock the sushi chef, you only need to beat the kitchen to unlock the restaurant, character, and weapon. This is not retroactive—if you’ve unlocked the teppanyaki restaurant but not the su…

- Controller support and customizable difficulty settings! - 7 August 2023
Hello fellow chefs! We have a major update for you today based on some player feedback and the roadmap for the game. I would also like to say thank you to those who have been alpha testers to help make sure this is all working! First new feature for today's update is controller support! The default aiming is now automatic rather than manual to better handle controller support. Although there is currently no option for customizable keybindings, this will be added in future updates. The second feature is customizable difficulty settings! Once you've completed your first run of 20 minutes, you will unlock the customizable difficulty settings. Do you want enemies to have loads of health but move super slowly? Or how about a challenge run where you'll die in one hit? Play around with the settings and make your game as difficult or as easy as you'd like! NB: Previous save data is not compatib…
