Astro Chef

Extremely fun VR cooking game! ♥ I haven't encountered any problems the current negative reviews have pointed out, and I'm already near the end of the 2nd Week's worth of levels. For those who have said that there isn't a free-movement setting, there is, it's just in accessibility. So, the controls are solid from the get-go (I use a Quest 3 if that matters), have minimal to no lag at all, and are criminally unknown to the majority of the VR community. If you like games that look, feel, and operate similarly to Startenders: Intergalactic Bartenders, I think you'll enjoy this game, and vice versa! I am very much looking forward to future updates and games from this dev team! ♥

In its core its a cool and fun game. BUT after playing the tutorial i do wonder if the devs even tried playing their own game?!. Because there are just not enough proper ways to actualy move - and thats mindboggling to me! We desperately need the ability to move free using the left stick! When something is out of range right now all you can do is teleport to a fixed spot (pre-choosen, always the same spots in the kitchen) and hope your environment allows it to move far enough to grab things etc. Yes you also can press B to recalibrate after moving back to get closer to things - but that cant be the solution! Another thing i imediately noticed is the lack of any graphic options. there are NONE!!! Specialy the aliasing is very annoying! Give us Antialiasing! Not recommended until they add basic vr functions and settings that are currently missing!

I feel like Astro Chef does this type of gameplay well in the way that it knows how to make a game that could get tedious quickly, feel fresh and new. Trying to figure out each alien's palette while also playing around with experimental foodstyles makes for a fun experience, this is one of the more fun VR cooking sims I've had the opportunity to play. I was able to play this on the Valve Index, so it looks like any issues they were having before have been fixed and adjusted as I had an issue free experience the whole time.

I really wanted to like this game. I love cooking games. The theme and graphics of this game are neat. I scanned a few ingredients and the scale of the possibilities seems huge. But… I got stuck in the tutorial. I was asked to use the press and the oven on an undefined ingredient and, after 20 minutes of trying, I never managed to achieve this.

This game has so much potential but game is very buggy and imo not playable

I love cooking games but this one isn't very fun. Cooking feels tedious and the tutorial is broken. On the second customer, he won't take the plate even though I've dinged the bell multiple times.
