im playing on mac and is anyone else struggling with the z/interaction key? ive had to retry the first waiter scene 3 times and i still cant clear it due to not being able to pick up the food no matter what i do. is there just something wrong with my mac?
edit: nvm i figured it out, apparently i needed to "face" the way of the dish before clicking z to pick it up
lol sorry I was just curious cause when I go up with the late that’s empty facing the food and press x or click with the mouse or anything it won’t let me pick it up but I can do everything else in the game. It’s weird…?
Even though it'll probably never come, I hope that this game will get a mobile port. I really wanted to play it but since my computer isn't in the best condition, I haven't gotten to.
I don't know of this is for anyone else but me, but I can't play the game due to my keyboard. I can't use the arrow keys I only have WASD. Make me sad because I was so excited to play!
As much as I like the style, gameplay and story…it’s just too hard, I’m sorry. I’d appreciate if you could at least customize the controls, because for me it’s impossible to sprint, while also being able to easily reach the confirmation button (Z). In addition to that, it’s hard to confirm things anyways. I have to stand in a specific position to even be able to do anything. If I’m even slightly off the correct positioning, it won’t work and I lose a bunch of time, and with that also customers.
I don’t know if I’m just bad at it, but for me it’s not enjoyable if I’m not able to play correctly with easier to use controls :/
For me personally as well!! Because of my 60% style of keyboard, I was unable to play the game because I can't use WASD. I wish there was a setting menu to change key binds or anything to make the actual game easier.
I don't know if this will help, but here are some general tips for anyone struggling:
1. You don't need to serve every customer to completion. If you serve them to completion you get a tip of 25 but you don't really NEED the tip to complete the goal. Each plate served gives you 50 of the currency, use math to figure out which customers you should serve and ignore.
2. There's a catalog on the table in Rody's apartment. I clicked around so much and didn't see it. If you buy things from the catalogue you can make the game easier, although you might wanna save up for matches.
3. Make sure you're always pressing the WASD or arrow keys to interact with stuff. You can't just click Z you also need to be pressing up or whatever.
There might be more to say but that's just what I noticed! Hope this can help any struggling players.
I also had this issue! I was really excited to play but unfortunately the controls were to difficult for me to use or play the game which saddens me because the story is fairly good. :(
The game looks great but idk if im just dumb bc everytime i try and click z to give the orders to the chefs it never works i havent even gotten past the tut yet
what should I do it won’t allow me to pick up the plate in the tutorial when I press the Z button and I tried to re starting the game and looking up the controls.
My game keeps freezing at random times and I have to exit and restart the level in order to unfreeze it </3 is there any other way I can get it to unfreeze?
helloo! i wanna know if anyone else playing on a macbook is having this problem, whenever i try to start/continue my shift it wont load and shows an error sign, and if i press z to confirm something, it goes unresponsive. i just wanna know if anyone knows how to solve this, please! :)
if it still doesn’t work, you need to remove the game from the dock first. And then open it ! Yeahh ,it definitely takes a while but hey, it’s all worth it at the end !
I absolutely love this game so much, one of my friends got me interested in the game at first but now I'm honest obsessed with it. These devs deserve the credit.
Hey so I have a problem with the game. I'm a MacBook user and every time I boot up the game and try playing the game, it won't let me take orders, place the orders or even pick up the food to give to the customer. I did what was written on the instructions so the gam could run smoothly, but I've asked multiple dead plate players (most are window players) and they don't know the solution to it besides spamming the space button/Z. If there another alternate way for this problem to be solved? I really want to play this game and it looks very interesting. If all else fails then I'll just resort to watching somebody else play it
Edit: I got the problem solved and played the whole thing. Some endings made me cry but that's because I'm an emotional person. 10/10 I love this game and the concept of it, would recommend to any horror/RPG gamers out there.
There's a section in the description somewhere that says "known bugs", which explains what bugs are there and explains how to still play it even with the bugs. It helped a lot when I played, os it'll most likely help you too :)

Hello, dear creators of this awesome game! I must mention that English is not my native language, so I speak with my heart and without translator. Sorry not sorry! And now, let's start my message.
Alright, it was tough, but I did it. I saw all of the endings (even if with the help of the instruction... thank you for one, I appreciate it).
I loved the story, I loved the sounds, I loved the music. I didn't really like gameplay, customers were becoming bored too quickly, sometimes I had to restart the day for many times, a friend of mine with whom I was playing this game even said that I looked like a maniac with that speed-of-light pressing the buttons on keyboard. It was really hard plus the system of the game itself didn't let me work sometimes (for example, when I stand near the table and the dialog with the table (I mean when you need to sit someone or to get the trash out) doesn't trigger), but somehow I believe that it's not the creator's fault but the program for creating a game's fault. But I surely had to mention it.
After so many tries and reached endings I still have a few questions and I didn't find the answer on them.
1. Who did we see in the window in Vincent's bedroom? Firstly I thought that was Rody's girlfriend, but apparently she was already dead on Monday (but why then Vincent had someone's hair in his toilet?..), so that doesn't work, I guess.
1.2 Why Vincent started a party? Why it was over so soon after the weird shadow in the window appeared? What relationship does Vincent have with his friends?
2. The dialog between Vincent and Rody during their fight was... something. I really liked the emotions and the scene itself, it's really well-made! But some things weren't answered by Vincent. Well, I mean, I have no idea what did he think about before his death. "You will never be full. What if I was no different from anything else? I would be dead for no reason, just like her". Vincent said that he is not a parent making a meal to his kid full of love. But... isn't it what he did with Rody? He cooked his beloved girlfriend, something he LOVED, to make him happy or something like that, I guess. That is why he was so displeased when he learnt that Rody didn't eat his food at all. Maybe because he tried to make that food for Rody "with love" but didn't want to accept it? Maybe he wanted to eat Rody, because Rody was something Vincent himself liked and he hoped that emotions will change his poor taste (bcs even Vincent's friends admitted that Rody can be to his liking, otherwisely he wouldn't call him in the middle of the night to let him come to his house (and for maniacs, I guess, it is a lot...)? I don't know. Too many questions and I don't know if we can find the answers in the game, which is why I want something like chapter 2 or so...
3. I mean, Rody, ar u 4real? You want to get something to eat?? Well you could eat the love of your life, but you refused... I have no idea what you want. That's an interesting line for an ending of that kind of story though, lol. As if he wanted to eat normally all this time. But at the same time... what if he will lose his taste after that story? That would interesting. Well, yeah, that's not really a question, just my thoughts.
I guess that's all I wanted to say.
Wish you luck and I'm willing to know some answers, if you may give some of them to me, I would really appreciate that, even though I fully understand that sometimes we shouldn't get what we want (just like Vincent).
OMG. Sorry for spamming in the comments, but I have another theory now.
In the end if ending 3 we can see broken bottle of wine and two glasses. Well, I guess Vincent wanted to eat with Rody that Dead plate and see if Rody will get a taste or not. After that he could kill Rody and eat him as well.
Why so?
Vincent already told us that it doesn't matter if it's a human body or not - he's not a cannibal, he just wants to feel taste again. But that feeling is connected with another theory of Vince's life - love. He was told a lot of times that he cooks without love, but "he's not a parent that makes a meal for their kid". Yes, he is not. He is far more than that - he is a professional chief. That is why... he must cook something his client loves.
Literally.
He prepared a dish with the love of Rody's life, Mannon. He wanted to know if this works out, and if so - he can try to eat Rody. I want to believe that he wasn't going to kill Rody instantly, but Vincent is a hot-tempered guy, which is why, well... he could plan something like that, even if trying to eat only a part of him (his blood or his ear) would be more convenient.
And I noticed something else. We know that Vincent doesn't feel any taste at all, no matter what he eats.
But after biting off Rody's ear he said: "Don't flatter yourself. It would have been better cooked."
HOW THE HELL DID HE KNOW IT?
He doesn't feel taste anyway, why was he so sure that it would taste different? Maybe because he actually felt something, huh? That is why he was so desperately approaching Rody during the last minutes of the game?
Vincent knew that he felt different after all and he wanted to taste more of Rody's body. Maybe he wouldn't kill him, but immobilize him by making severe injuries or tying him up again and getting to his place. Whatever.
Now I feel like I know why he was doing all of this... I hope that I'm close to the truth at least.
But I still don't get who the hell was that shadow-dude in the window of Vincent's bedroom and why he ended up the party so suddenly.
Hey! sorry im having some issues with the download. it says that the file is no longer on the site, is there any way for me to be able to fix this or download it? Thanks!
Hello! I have a windows 10 too! What you do is open the zip file (double clicking or select and enter), and then open the application. I usually extract it, it just makes it run smoother. Then, you should see and un-zipped version of it. Open it, and instead of seeing the regular application symbol, it should have a logo. You can enter and it should open with no further instructions. Hope this helped!
It should work by just walking up to the table and pressing Z. Sometimes it glitches tho, so just go to the bottom right corner of the table and press Z. That always works (for me at least)
I've seen people say they can't get the phone call on day 6. It won't work for me either. I re started many times and even restarted my laptop and I'm sure I did everything right.
I had this problem too for a while, then i found out you have to have triggered the trash cutscene on day 3 and talk to vincent, asking him all 3 questions, on day 4. If you can't find him on day 4 he is standing in the trash alley after the cutscene on day 4. hope this helps :)
I know this was ten months ago but I'm going to try this right now and see if it works since I'm also having trouble with it right now (i think I was doing the questions part wrong) thank you!
it jus breaks in the middle of the day 5. i did rerun a couple of times, it remains the same unfortunately :( but i love this game sm rody my roman empire already
This game has a deep narrative (the life of Rody, how he's a pretty messy and lazy boy) and It really makes you feel like an almost broke waiter. Now from a gameplay aspect It ain't great, it's kind of repetitive and not accurate in movements, some of the items are kind of useless (the fast boots were uncontrollable) though I liked the matches and the ending using them. The art-style was on point and overall I'll give It a 7/10 plus the item prices are accurate considering the economy of now (500 bucks for a perfume).
Ahhhhhh noooo I wanted an ending with vince and rody being togetherrrr...I literally was squealing with their interactions like noooooo...it was super cute and fun tho I loved the character designs

edit: nvm i figured it out, apparently i needed to "face" the way of the dish before clicking z to pick it up
wait what do you mean face the way? Cause I had the same issue but with my windows computer
press the arrow keys so that youre "facing" towards the dish, as if you were walking towards it.
so does that mean my back should be facing the customers?
im pretty sure the protagonist sprite can only actually face one way, so no.
lol sorry I was just curious cause when I go up with the late that’s empty facing the food and press x or click with the mouse or anything it won’t let me pick it up but I can do everything else in the game. It’s weird…?
Even though it'll probably never come, I hope that this game will get a mobile port. I really wanted to play it but since my computer isn't in the best condition, I haven't gotten to.

How To Get ALL ENDINGS
Just finished all the endings. This was a super fun game and the story was really cool!! Nice Work :33 (I LOVE THE CHARACTERS SO MUCH)
I don't know of this is for anyone else but me, but I can't play the game due to my keyboard. I can't use the arrow keys I only have WASD. Make me sad because I was so excited to play!
As much as I like the style, gameplay and story…it’s just too hard, I’m sorry. I’d appreciate if you could at least customize the controls, because for me it’s impossible to sprint, while also being able to easily reach the confirmation button (Z).

For me personally as well!! Because of my 60% style of keyboard, I was unable to play the game because I can't use WASD. I wish there was a setting menu to change key binds or anything to make the actual game easier.
me too i felt the same!! i really wanted to play because the story seems amazing but i am not capable of doing the waiter stuff :((((
honestly i wish there was a option with just the novel part or without the "not enough money to pass the level" because its so hard to play
I don't know if this will help, but here are some general tips for anyone struggling:
1. You don't need to serve every customer to completion. If you serve them to completion you get a tip of 25 but you don't really NEED the tip to complete the goal. Each plate served gives you 50 of the currency, use math to figure out which customers you should serve and ignore.

There might be more to say but that's just what I noticed! Hope this can help any struggling players.
I also had this issue! I was really excited to play but unfortunately the controls were to difficult for me to use or play the game which saddens me because the story is fairly good. :(
I LOVED IT but damn, my hands were shaking while serving customers...
finally done all the endings and oh my god i love this game
what do i press to play the game?? please help :,(
it wont let me download and idk what to do :(
i cant give orders to the chefs :(
same omg, i pressed every key and restarted the game, still nothing worked :'(
omg i just figured it out!! you have to press arrow up before pressing z!
The game looks great but idk if im just dumb bc everytime i try and click z to give the orders to the chefs it never works i havent even gotten past the tut yet
I had the same problem too. Try pressing the up arrow before clicking z!
omg it works now tysm!! <<33333
you're welcome :3
I love this game! but I feel dumb when I buy everything but don't know I must equip to use it lol
what should I do it won’t allow me to pick up the plate in the tutorial when I press the Z button and I tried to re starting the game and looking up the controls.
go to the bottom right corner of the table! Then press Z!!
Am I going to be obsessed with this game for the next 2 weeks? yes. Smash x100
new hyperfixation. thanks alot
My game keeps freezing at random times and I have to exit and restart the level in order to unfreeze it </3 is there any other way I can get it to unfreeze?
helloo! i wanna know if anyone else playing on a macbook is having this problem, whenever i try to start/continue my shift it wont load and shows an error sign, and if i press z to confirm something, it goes unresponsive. i just wanna know if anyone knows how to solve this, please! :)

How'd you solve it? I've got the same problem 😭
There's a section in the description somewhere that says "known bugs", which explains what bugs are there and explains how to still play it even with the bugs. It helped a lot when I played, os it'll most likely help you too :)

Hello again! Sorry for the semi-late reply! But the controls should be on this page.
Ok but i never got the code to TAKE ORDERSIt should work by just walking up to the table and pressing Z. Sometimes it glitches tho, so just go to the bottom right corner of the table and press Z. That always works (for me at least)
hi, I’m sorry to bother but do you know how to put the fullscreen without the task bar please ? 🥹
Hello! So sorry for the late replies, I haven't been checking my emails. Unfortunately, I have no idea how to do that :((

Oh my god this game was so good.
good gamer
I've seen people say they can't get the phone call on day 6. It won't work for me either. I re started many times and even restarted my laptop and I'm sure I did everything right.
I had this problem too for a while, then i found out you have to have triggered the trash cutscene on day 3 and talk to vincent, asking him all 3 questions, on day 4. If you can't find him on day 4 he is standing in the trash alley after the cutscene on day 4. hope this helps :)
I know this was ten months ago but I'm going to try this right now and see if it works since I'm also having trouble with it right now (i think I was doing the questions part wrong) thank you!
it jus breaks in the middle of the day 5. i did rerun a couple of times, it remains the same unfortunately :( but i love this game sm rody my roman empire already
i love this game but i cant get the phone call on day 6. ive done everything i need to and it still doesnt work.
I thought that to but I’ve done everything that I’m able to I think it might be a bug
you have to trigger the trash cutscene on day 3 and talk to vince, asking him all 3 questions, on day 4 to get the phone call
This game has a deep narrative (the life of Rody, how he's a pretty messy and lazy boy) and It really makes you feel like an almost broke waiter. Now from a gameplay aspect It ain't great, it's kind of repetitive and not accurate in movements, some of the items are kind of useless (the fast boots were uncontrollable) though I liked the matches and the ending using them. The art-style was on point and overall I'll give It a 7/10 plus the item prices are accurate considering the economy of now (500 bucks for a perfume).
Im so sad there isn't an ending where Vince and Rody ending up together
Ahhhhhh noooo I wanted an ending with vince and rody being togetherrrr...I literally was squealing with their interactions like noooooo...it was super cute and fun tho I loved the character designs
Me too!! I love the interaction between these two characters!
they really had hannigram vibes
