Cooking Throwdown

VR Cooking Chaos is a fast-paced VR cooking game developed as part of a team of 3, made in Unity for the Meta Quest. Players take on the role of a chef competing in a televised cooking show, with a catch! You’ve forgotten all of the ingredients!

As an increasingly hostile audience pelts the kitchen with produce, players must quickly catch the ingredients they need, prepare recipes under time pressure, and throw unwanted produce back to fend off overwhelming crowds. As the game progresses, more audience members appear, enraged NPCs enter frenzied throwing states, recipes become more complex, and overall difficulty steadily increases.

Features I worked on:

• Mesh cutting and interactive cooking systems where ingredients transform as they are prepared.
• Dynamic NPC spawning system that scales with level difficulty, remaining time, and player reputation.
• Animated NPC AI featuring unique behaviors, throwing patterns, and enraged enemy variants.
• Silly custom NPC appearances, a level selection menu, and the design of a complete gameplay loop!
