Long Time, No Soup!

A local (cooperative) multiplayer game about running a soup restaurant. Really, I just loved the title (Long Time No Soup!) and am looking for an excuse to make a game around it.

You’ll have to

  • Grow the right plants yourself
  • Buy the equipment (bowls, pan, etc.)
  • Deliver/combine herbs into the equipment.
  • Deliver the soup to waiting customers just in time

However, as the screen will be occupied by all those elements, we don’t really have space for customers.

So simplify it:

  • There’s a timer
  • Deliver soup to reset it (delivering something better, resets it longer – play that risk/reward game)
  • If it runs out, the level ends. (“Long Time, No Soup!”)
  • Otherwise, you keep playing until you’ve reached the score needed to pass that level (?)
