Run a little café for comfy Halloween regulars. Take their orders, brew and bake, stack it all up and serve it before closing time. Just one problem: whenever you look away, they swap seats.


Instructions

  • Pick up the notepad to interact with customers
  • Prepare their order and bring it back to them
  • Make enough money to progress to the next day

Tips!

  • You can stack multiple items at a time in one hand
  • There is an order rail on the right side of the counter to organize your orders
  • You can queue up multiple food items at once (up to 3 at a time)
  • There is a bin behind the counter to throw away unused items or order notes (it's green cube - I didn't have enough time to model and animate it)


A note from the dev

I made Haunted Brew while moving into a house we just bought, with my partner 36 weeks pregnant. So, a busy fortnight! The core game is all here: take orders, make drinks and food, stack your tower, and find customers who swap seats the moment you look away. But a few things I’d planned didn’t make it in before the deadline:

  • Sound effects and music. It’s very quiet in there, sorry!
  • Customer accessories (hats, scarves, glasses) to help tell look-alikes apart
  • A proper chef model
  • Head turning and blinking for customers and the chef
  • Labels on the drink machine and kitchen buttons. You can still see what the buttons do in the HUD by looking at them
  • More difficulty tuning. It’s on the hard side, so be patient with yourself on Day 1

I’d love to come back and finish it properly after the jam (and after the baby arrives). Thanks for playing!
