About the Game
Omelet You Cook from solo developer Dan Schumacher is a cozy-chaotic cooking roguelike where you assemble omelets for an increasingly demanding student cafeteria, ingredients arriving on a conveyor belt, with score thresholds and round modifiers ramping up over each run. The "roguelike" framing means each run feels different — Principal Clucker introduces new restrictions, hazards (literally chickens running across the prep area), and ingredient combinations that reward experimentation.
It's small in scope but tightly designed — the kind of indie that runs full-tilt on a Steam Deck and earns its replayability through the deep combinatorial space of which weird ingredients actually work together. Released February 2026, the patch cadence has been steady; this is build 21838995.
Released with CSF + Goldberg, fully offline-playable. 157 MB installed. Single-player only.

Steam Patch Notes
Official update history
Hey chefs!
Balance Changes
Replaced Brie with Goat Cheese in Scoochie Special
We were noticing chefs weren't unlocking starter pantries as quickly as we'd like. This change means you only need to score a bit with the common Cucumber to unlock this pantry
Brie gives 0.5x to Fruit instead of 0.4x
Since Fruit is more specialty than the Texture/Preparation tags, it makes sense to be a lil better
Bug Fixes
Improved wide screen support with wider backgrounds, catalogue, and Principal Clucker
Fixed various Lobster Claw bugs
reduced grab duration to 3 seconds (instead of 13???? How'd I let that slip through lol)
while grabbed, you can't click to reset the grab timer
while grabbed, tooltip won't frequently appear/disappear
added additional anticipation frame to make it more clear it'll grab ya
can't grab you during scoring
won't give you achievement for getting grabbed unless you actually get got
Fixed bug where you couldn't play Final Pantry after last patch
Fixed bug where one of the last omelets after beating the story was poorly positioned
Fixed Mayor Dog's hands
Probably fixed bug where Steam would never quit the game
Hey chefs!
Small day 1 patch here to fix a couple obvious issues. There's still some other issues we're working through and will probably have another patch or 2 over the coming days. In particular I'm aware the Wrapped pantry (specifically Corn and probably other pointers) is buggy.
Fixed bug where chefs could play Black Apron before beating the final pantry
This was an accident, sorry for those of you who "unlocked" Black Apron who will no longer have access. The intent is that you earn the right to play the highest difficulty after beating the story. Feel free to use the "Unlock All" feature if you really want to jump ahead
Fixed bug where game would soft lock after runs when losing on Round 13/14 of the Clucker Pantry
Fixed some achievements that weren't hooked up properly
Added 1 last missing achievement to bring us to 99
Added text to omelet selection screen to make it more clear how the final pantry/apron is unlocked
Fixed tAkE RaNdOm oThEr text
But at least Hjalte made this sick meme from it:

We're relieved there weren't any critical issues on day 1! Thanks to everyone for reporting the issues you do find.
Hope you're enjoying 1.0 as much as we are!
Happy cooking,
Chef Schu
v0.9.34 Patch Notes
Shish Kebab gives +5 per Burnt as well
Fixed bug where ingredients could look like crab but not be crab
Fixed bug where locked crates would be lost when reloading during gameplay
Fixed bug where earning enough points with a locked ingredient (usually from a Weekly) wouldn't trigger Principal Clucker's dialogue
Fixed bug where 2 trashy embezzlers gave +$4 per trash
Fixed bug where embezzler gave money when taking free legendary reward
Fixed bug where baby carrots, stix, and honey drizzle could spawn with incorrect scale with non-default omelet size
Fixed bug where ingredients spawned from Haunted ingredients (Baby Carrots, Stix) weren't also Haunted but they said they were Wiggly but they weren't Wiggly
Fixed bug where discarded Haunted ingredients were visually Haunted but not Haunted at heart
Fixed a couple typos (Parmasean, Atomicly)
Hey chefs, very minor quality of life update that hopefully resolves the last game-crashing bug.
v0.8.16 Patch Notes
Bug Fixes
Fixed critical bug where ingredients from discard would stop above the conveyor (I think)
This one is tricky to reproduce so let me know if you ever see it occur again!
Fixed bug where Dispense icons could get stuck in middle of screen
Fixed bug where mult arrows could stick around in shop screen
Fixed bug where ingredients spawned by customers (Egg Shells, Chocolate Coins) could remain
Fixed bug where ingredients on the right side of omelet could be added to the omelet that gets saved/served/eaten by Principal Clucker
Quality of Life
Changed Ascetic text to say "Ingredients
worthearning $1+""Score X more than target score" customer request updates AFTER you surpass that score
Dispenses disabled by Minimalism no longer have an orange line behind them
Balance
Locked crates without a Dispense get a Dispense between shops
Previously players were punished for locking crates without a Dispense since it meant they would have 1 less Dispense available in the next shop
Green Apron + Classic Starter Pantry has a new boss: Teacher version of Jane Clucker
Previous Teacher (Lady Lana) had Egg Layer + Superstitious. Jane has Egg Layer + Child.
I made this change because this is the first boss chefs encounter while they're still learning the game. Superstitious requires the more complex strategy of adjusting ingredients with your dragged ingredient and can catch the player off guard.
Hey chefs,
Minor update for today as a follow up to our first content patch.
Added patch notes to title screen
Added Discord rich presence. Now your friends can see what Starter Pantry + Apron you're on and for how long through Discord.
Temporarily adjusted Jalapeno to make it logically consistent
Prince of Principals nerf -> Replaced "Hungry" with "Grower"

The chef devs will be game jamming at our coliving space in rural Sweden, so we may be less responsive for this week. I'm hoping to sneak in another little content update next week tho!

For most players, this will just work and you shouldn't notice anything different.
After you update, whichever device you first launch the game on will be the one that is synced to the cloud. This could lead to an issue where you have most progress on device A but you open it first on device B. Fortunately there's a fairly straightforward fix:
On the device with your preferred save data:
- Navigate to the folder located at "{USER}/AppData/LocalLow/SchuBoxGames/OmeletYouCook"
- Copy the most recent save file with lots of numbers followed by "_save.json"
- Open the folder named after those same numbers (generated after the first time you open the game)
- Delete the save file with the same name
- Paste the old save file to replace it
If you have any questions or run into issues please feel free to hop into our Discord for more direct communication.

- Dr Bluon (radical centrist + child) has been promoted to Management, and is now gracious
