- Doomsday Diner is OUT RIGHT NOW!!! 🌠- 23 July 2026
Hello chefs! It’s time to watch the grill, the sausages, and the world burn! Doomsday Diner is out now on Steam! To celebrate, we’ve got a brand-new trailer for you all.This is a huge moment for our small team. We’ve been working on this game for around two years, and for it to finally see the light of day is certainly a heck of a sight. The game is not meant to be a serious commentary on our current world (or is it?) or a deep piece of art (or it is perhaps…), but something light-hearted that we hope brings you a bit of a laugh. In fact, if our wobbly sausages get a giggle out of you, our mission is complete. With that in mind, we hope you’ll enjoy Doomsday Diner! And please, leave a review, as that will help us out A LOT with discoverability on Steam. So without further ado, here is Doomsday Diner. Welcome to your first shift in the Wasteland. All the best, Your Space Rock Games and U…

- 5 Things You Might Not Know About DD | Nearly 15k Wishlists! - 7 July 2026
Hello chefs, With Doomsday Diner coming in less than three weeks, we thought it might be nice to give you a few tips for your full-time work in the Wasteland. You know, just in case things get a bit heated. When the grill is sizzling, the people are impatient and hungry, and on top of that, you get raiders coming and trying to steal your cash, any bit of info helps. Let’s get into it! Your diner star rating increases the amount of tips you earn from orders. Doing your best to clean your diner and complete orders helps you have a successful diner for longer. If you don’t, you might get fired. And unemployment is rather high in the Wasteland. You get two uses of the blaster shield upgrade a day. If things are starting to get dicey, don’t fret - just be sure to use that big button by the gun case and problems solved (for now).Sausages bounce off enemy bullets. Use that information wisely.…
