Game is so fun! One of my favorite typing games ever made for sure. Super fun balancing everything, although there are some definite quality of life issues. The rat spawn rate is way too high for my liking, and I really need a visual indicator that caps lock is on because there are so many times where I have no idea why my typing isn't working. Also a trash mechanic for if you accidentally pick up a piece of food not associated with the order to open up inventory space for the later levels. But so fun, highly anticipated!
Hello, thanks for trying our game :D. For the rat, capslock indicator and trashing food, we have fixed it in the demo on Steam. Make sure you try it on Steam :D. We have also a sneak peek of the next restaurant on the demo! :D
Do you think in the future you could add the dyslexic font for those of us with dyslexia? If you can't then I understand, I'm still gonna try to play this 😄
i literally kept replaying until i got 3 stars, level ten was a bit difficult but i managed to get it second try! it was a challenge to take in everything on the screen, especially because the words changed (duh) but it was really fun! thank you for making this devs <3
no problem!! i enjoy making my life a bit difficult sometimes
also idk if you know this but i decided to download the game from itch.io but the screen was way too zoomed in and there was no windowed option?? it doesnt matter too much but decided to let you know. great game tho :)
Thanks! Yeah The symbols is pretty challenging... So far as I know, only programmers that knows by heart where is the symbols without looking on the keyboard :')
is it just me or is level 10 stupidly hard,,, people ordering 3+ pizzas and pastas, literally dozens of rats coming in at once.. is the difficulties setting broken?? I lowered it all the way and yet I still can't pass TvT
Yeah, the balance of the web version is pretty off, because I balance it with my typing skill :')... The version on the Steam is more balance. Please try it and hopefully wishlist it :D.
It is honestly one of the first games that has sucked me in as hard as Papa's Pizzeria did in a long time! Mr Whiskers also gives the same vibes as the evil penguin in that Wallace and Gromit movie. The difficulty level at its lowest was still pretty challenging for me, but my typing has gotten so fast from just speed running this game alone. The only thing was that I couldn't click the "DEL" button to get rid of made dishes, but I guess that's a glitch in the browser version? Thank you for making this amazing game!
Ah yes, I kinda forget, but the web version is a several version behind from the Steam. And admittedly, the balance is still hard in this current iteration :')... Please try and (hopefully) wishlist The Chef's Shift on Steam :D.
I loved the game it was da best I'd ever fucking played and then I started again cuz it was so good and put the difficulty to max and Im gonna throw the school computer thru the window!!!!!!!@!!!!!@@@!@!@!!!!!
played this game for like two hours simply trying to get above 90% accuracy. It's so fun! It would be kinda cool if we could see our wpm for the level we played but that may be hard to implement. The story was definitely not what i expected (but very funny) and I think the game is super fun even though a little heart racing at times. Keep at it and I can't wait for the full game release!!
Thanks! Yeah we plan to implement wpm feature but, it's challenge by itself, because the word is so fragmented, and usually you wait from one word to the next because you are thinking what stuff you need to type or waiting customer to finish.
So simply dividing total word counts by the time elapsed will give you really different wpm.
We might record the speed only after you press the first character of each word and stop recording when you finish it, but I'm still not sure that it will be accurate
Another possibility is because the anti-virus software, sometimes they quarantine any suspicious .exe file... and it gives false positive for some file
IDK... My computer definitely acts up from time to time, but every anti-virus thing I've ever tried said everything was fine.
The other game was Typefarmer by Antti Haavikko. I was wondering if it had something to do with Itch or some library my PC doesn't like for some reason.
I guess we'll see.
p.s. The Steam version works perfectly. Wishlisted, and excited for the full version. :-)
The game is quite good and fun, but it can be a bit difficult for people who don't speak English or it's not their first language (like me). I really liked it, added to my wishlist on Steam.
I think I'm having a bug, Once my shift ends it doesn't proceed to the next one, just the game freezing. I can still type though and my chef can move around.
That game is fantastic! It’s incredibly fun to play. Everything about it is adorable, from the mechanics and art to the music. I love how it becomes more challenging as one progress. :D
HIiiii I rlly loved the game its so good and the story is good and its the right amount of hard I lovvvveee it but now I finished it and I'm looking for other games like this and I cant find them help plz
Hiii, thank you for trying our game! We could give several recommendation tho if you like this kind of game. If you like Typing Game, you might like Epistory, it's an adventure game, where you ride a fox and explore the map as you type the world around you. https://store.steampowered.com/app/398850/Epistory__Typing_Chronicles/ Or if you like Cooking Game, you might like our other game called Cookard, it's a cooking card game, where you combine card like Stacklands to make food. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2919650/Cookard/
Hey! I really like this game but i have a small issue, i play on browser and it is annoying for me when i have to press esc because it boots me out of my full screen
Hi, thank you so much for playing our game :D. I'm sorry about the problem, I'm afraid we could not do much about it because "esc" button is the default button to quit the full screen on browser, it's done automatically by the browser. We recommend to download the demo on Steam to get better experience :D.
Everything is soo soo cute~ I love the mechanics, the art, and the music. The story is nice too. I like how it gets a bit difficult the further you go on. The type of food and their designs are good too!
Thank you soo much for your kind words XD Please consider to wishlist the game on the Steam, more wishlist will give us more visibility when it launches :D
AMAZING GAME !!! I had so much fun playing it ~ (even though it was a bit complicated with my keyboard since a few key aren't working ^^')
Also, I started playing in french (since it's my first langage) but quickly switch in english because some word were more complicated to write with all those letter "éèîô" especially when I had to type them in capital @v@ impossible
But aside that I really enjoy this game ~ everything is really well done. From he hilarious story to the beautifull visual ~
Hello @sohaland, thank you for trying our game XD. Glad that you enjoy it :D. For the keyboard part, yes it's still not perfect, we have noticed that certain character is hard to type, for example is É, È, Œ, œ, we have thought that because it's native in French language, French people could just write it without a thought... but we are so wrong about it lol. And for the symbols, yes, we haven't adapted to different keyboard layout, the symbols used is more or less from standard QWERTY keyboard.
In the future we will address this issue. For the hard character, maybe we could make sure the word that using it won't come up. Or we could allow typing E for character É, or È, and typing OE for Œ.
But yeah, we need help from the communities to address this issue because we are not used to with different keyboard layout.
I loved the story so much and the gameplay is a lot of fun but the game lags for me and also I remember at some point it said I can change the difficulty but I didn't find the option... I barely passed the last level to see where the story went!
Hello, I'm glad that you like the game :D... if the game lags, I think it's because there's some bug :')... I'm sorry that you experience that, it would be solved by closing and reopening the game. For the difficulty option you could find it in the settings on the main menu. Currently you can't change the difficulty when you are in the level :')
Wait, really? We thought we have handled that case... could you give me more detail? It's pretty serious bug if you could not play it properly :')... do you play the windows version or the web version? and what kind of resolution your screen has?
for this demo, the progress saves... but for the full version one, I'm afraid we could not achieve the backward compability of the save file, because the level will be changed a little bit and rebalanced... :')
Thanks! XD... really appreciate it :D... if you don't mind please wishlist The Chef's Shift on Steam! It will help us a lot for getting many wishlist :D
i never thought i would type so fast.. but at least it improved my typing skills! :D (ty the chef's shift for improving my typing skills, time to show off to my friends!~)
Cool XD... Well the game has developed further, we have sneak peek on the new trailer, but I think I'll post more detail of new update on our twitter if I'm not too lazy 😂
We will put this idea into our consideration!! but probably on the chef's shift 2? hahaha hopefully we will released in Q2-Q3 2024, please looking forward! :DD Thankyou once again for the sweet words! <3
Hi there~ I tried out your game several days ago, and kinda dropped it after several levels because I find it hard. But tonight it came across my mind again so I decided to re-download it 🤣
I saw a comment below about typing symbols makes it so hard to keep the flow, as a fellow non-QWERTY user, I gotta agree. I'm using the workman layout. I'll be looking forward to that accessibility update! 👀
Another thing I'd like to request is to display a caps lock indicator on screen. There is a light indicator on my caps lock key, but it's usually covered up by my hands so I can't see it. Sometimes it throws me off cuz my keys stopped typing, apparently it's cuz my capslock is still on :") or skill issue, maybe both.
It's a fantastic game~ feels polished and well made
Hey caramel, thanks for trying our game again despite it's being too hard :'). In our current build, we already have caps lock indicator, and the level is more balanced (read: easier). For the accessibility function, is not yet implemented, but surely it's on our roadmap :D. We plan to update the demo soon, after current build is stable enough... please wait a little bit :')
oml this game is so good and so stressful XD looking forward to seeing the full version on steam! (edit: ooo the special characters did throw me off like other said. if there could be an option to remove those, that would be much appreciated!!)

Edit: WHAT A CLIFFHANGER.
Hahahaha thanks! Glad that you enjoy it :D
Please consider to wishlist it on Steam! :D
THIS WAS SO GOOOD ... it was so hard by the end tho
Thanks XD... yeah it ramps up pretty quickly... I think the Steam version has better progression :3... please consider to wishlist it on Steam! :D
honestly i enjoyed the challenge! will do though, i really really enjoyed the game!!
thanks a lot :D
10/10
THIS
hahaha thanks XD
Annoyingly hard.
Yeah, the balance is still off in this web version. Please try the demo on Steam! :D
... WHAT? O_O
:D
this is so so fun!!! <3 <3
Thanks you XD... Please considering wishlist it on Steam!

how do you use esc???
It's for pause, but in the web version, somehow it's interfered with exit from fullscreen :')
i got it to work a little qwq.. oh well i guess no fullscreen for me
yeah sorry for that :')... But if you download the demo from Steam, you could play it fullscreen :D
Oh man, I love this game. I played the web demo version, and I was so frustrated. 10/10 would play again.
I look forward to the Steam release!
Thanks :D... Hahahaha... yeah it looks chill, but actually it's not XD
Do you think in the future you could add the dyslexic font for those of us with dyslexia? If you can't then I understand, I'm still gonna try to play this 😄
Hey do you have any recommendation? I think if it's not that hard to include this feature :D
Yeah! There is a free font called OpenDyslexic. Here is a link: https://opendyslexic.org/
Thanks!
so i can't download it, because it's a .rar file, not exe, but!!!!!!! very fun on browser vers
Hi, it's preferable to download the demo from Steam, it's easier and it has the most up to date version :D.
GO FUK YOURSELFS
???
i literally kept replaying until i got 3 stars, level ten was a bit difficult but i managed to get it second try! it was a challenge to take in everything on the screen, especially because the words changed (duh) but it was really fun! thank you for making this devs <3
glad that you enjoy it XD... hahahaha... sorry for making it too challenging :')
no problem!! i enjoy making my life a bit difficult sometimes
also idk if you know this but i decided to download the game from itch.io but the screen was way too zoomed in and there was no windowed option?? it doesnt matter too much but decided to let you know. great game tho :)
The version on Itch.io is not updated anymore, please try the demo from the Steam :')... we have windowed option there :D.
This game is a delight! The mimes, though, oof, wildly hard even at my wpm
Thanks! Yeah The symbols is pretty challenging... So far as I know, only programmers that knows by heart where is the symbols without looking on the keyboard :')
is it just me or is level 10 stupidly hard,,, people ordering 3+ pizzas and pastas, literally dozens of rats coming in at once.. is the difficulties setting broken?? I lowered it all the way and yet I still can't pass TvT
Yeah, the balance of the web version is pretty off, because I balance it with my typing skill :')... The version on the Steam is more balance. Please try it and hopefully wishlist it :D.
What are the controls? 😭
The keyboard, you need to type it :D
It is honestly one of the first games that has sucked me in as hard as Papa's Pizzeria did in a long time! Mr Whiskers also gives the same vibes as the evil penguin in that Wallace and Gromit movie.

Volume settings does not work. :(
Please try the version on Steam, we haven't updated anymore this game on itch :')
I don't know why, but every time I close out of the game, my pc automatically deletes The Chef's Shift.exe.
Running on Windows 10 Pro, intel i5 core cpu.
ps: This game is great so far! :)
That's weird :')... please try the version on Steam :D
I will definitely try the Steam version. :)
But I think you should know that another typing game from Itch also did the same thing, so it might just be my pc. idk
wait what? ._. That's totally weird...
I hope it's not virus or something that deletes files on the computer :')
Another possibility is because the anti-virus software, sometimes they quarantine any suspicious .exe file... and it gives false positive for some file
IDK... My computer definitely acts up from time to time, but every anti-virus thing I've ever tried said everything was fine.

I guess we'll see.
p.s. The Steam version works perfectly. Wishlisted, and excited for the full version. :-)
Also, as far as I know, nothing else on my PC has disappeared. Maybe I should contact Itch support?
TIPPY TAP THIS SEEMS LIKE A SILLY GAME WHICH CAN POTENTIONALLY INCREASE MY WPM 10/10 fun
Yes, it sure can :D
The game is quite good and fun, but it can be a bit difficult for people who don't speak English or it's not their first language (like me). I really liked it, added to my wishlist on Steam.
Hey, what language that you use? We plan to add many localization, so we could reach as many players possible :D
Spanish! <3
Ah yes, we have planned for that language for the release. Please wait for it :D
I think I'm having a bug, Once my shift ends it doesn't proceed to the next one, just the game freezing. I can still type though and my chef can move around.
Oh wait, it's definitely a bug, do you have the recording of it?
That game is fantastic! It’s incredibly fun to play. Everything about it is adorable, from the mechanics and art to the music. I love how it becomes more challenging as one progress. :D
Thanks! Really glad that you enjoy it :D
so much funnnn! i downloaded the game but the sound does not work for some reason. is there a way of fixing this? thank you in advance :)
Hey you could try the one on the Steam, it has the latest update, maybe it has been fixed there :D. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2390230/The_Chefs_Shift/

Very nice game - with a a bit of a story - also not stress typing
Thank you for your kind feedback :D
I loved the story so much and the gameplay is a lot of fun but the game lags for me and also I remember at some point it said I can change the difficulty but I didn't find the option... I barely passed the last level to see where the story went!

Ooooh, okay! Thank you! I added the game on my wishlist on Steam, btw :D
Thanks! XD Really appreciate it! :D
I really enjoy this game, but I can't do level 4 because the game is cut off on my screen so I cannot see the pizza station
Wait, really? We thought we have handled that case... could you give me more detail? It's pretty serious bug if you could not play it properly :')... do you play the windows version or the web version? and what kind of resolution your screen has?
I play the windows version. My screen resolution is 3000 x 2000
thank you for the detail, we'll check on it later :D
i hope my progress saves cause i love this game- it's a good way to practice typing and hand eye coordination
for this demo, the progress saves... but for the full version one, I'm afraid we could not achieve the backward compability of the save file, because the level will be changed a little bit and rebalanced... :')
ah thanks for the info!
This game is so fun, I just can't type fast enough for the clown levels its so stressful lol
ah yes, we are really sorry about that :')... btw, the demo is already updated on Steam, the difficulty has been balanced on that build XD
Really fun game! I enjoy it a looot!
And the story unfolds well and is so funny haha!
Thanks! XD... really appreciate it :D... if you don't mind please wishlist The Chef's Shift on Steam! It will help us a lot for getting many wishlist :D
love the mechanics, too bad its laggy
ah I'm sorry if it's laggy, did you play the web version?
❤️
thank you for your kind words! XD... it sure cheers us up :D
i never thought i would type so fast.. but at least it improved my typing skills! :D (ty the chef's shift for improving my typing skills, time to show off to my friends!~)
Ahahahaha XD... you're welcome :D... well I guess it surely improves your multitasking skill too XD
yep now i can do everything at the same time :D (this reply was so late)
Cool XD... Well the game has developed further, we have sneak peek on the new trailer, but I think I'll post more detail of new update on our twitter if I'm not too lazy 😂
(late reply) ooo~ a new trailer, i'll go and see that with the details and its okay to be lazy sometimes (even im lazy too lmao :D)
three words
let him cook
Hahaha thanks for cooking the game XD
it was pretty fun i like this game
thanks XD
now we need multiplayer or vursus mode
this game has a bright future
We will put this idea into our consideration!! but probably on the chef's shift 2? hahaha hopefully we will released in Q2-Q3 2024, please looking forward! :DD Thankyou once again for the sweet words! <3

and yes, we will add accessibility option, so the symbol won't appear anymore :')
