THE TEAM
Hello! We are a small group of friends who wanted to make a cute game about cooking. We started this project in the end of 2024 and this will be is our first commercial release!
Our team is Julien (game designer & co-creator), Erika (artist & co-creator), Danny (programmer) and Kristin (narrative desiger) and Tumult Kollective (audio design).
Most of us work on this project part time but we love experimenting, learning, and pushing their ideas as far as their own skills, time, and personal investment allow us. And we hope you will enjoy our creation :)
