Good Meat
Welcome to the Good Meat Playtest! (v0.0.1)
Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/5120230/Good_Meat
IncrementalDB: https://www.incrementaldb.com/game/good-meat
Good Meat is a meaty incremental game where you hunt animals, cook for your customers, and buy the universe. Earn more money than you can count and use it to upgrade your 16-bit-console-inspired galactic restaurant empire!
This is the first 20 minutes of the game, which is currently in alpha. There will more than likely be bugs and balance issues! Your feedback will help us solve both.
Controls
The game can be played with just a mouse. Left Click to interact.

Good Meat is a joint effort between Ernie Interactive and Hi Water Games.

could you maybe not let it auto-choose the OS language for the game language? It is really frustrating if games do that, especially if there is no way to turn it off or change the language ingame...
Oh sure, we'll patch that and also make sure there's a manual language selector on the main menu.
Buying the forest doesn't allow you to go back to the rats, making it impossible to progress further since you don't farm enough.
The forest is actually the last part of the playtest, we haven't balanced anything beyond that! Thanks for playing to the end. We're going to release a longer demo soon on Steam! The demo will have further upgrades past forest.
We will definitely add in the ability to switch back to Alleyway, per your feedback!
So, it seems like a fun game, however I can't get more than three rat meats in the beginning. And the second level requires us to get four, and we lose the coins so I can't upgrade anything beyond the rat bait. I have hit every single pebble as fast as I could, but I always run out of time right as the eighth pebble I need is ready to fire.
Have you been picking up your tips during cooking? When you lose the cooking session, you don't lose any tips that you have collected. This should allow you to get the 5 coins necessary to upgrade your hunting skills!
You aren't the first person with this feedback, however, so we are looking into how we can handle this difficulty jump a little better. Thank you for playing!
oooh, you can click on the coins that drop? I just thought those were indicators of a successful tip that would be added to the total automatically.
Yes, you can! We'll add that to the tutorial, sorry!!
Bug report: you might need to check the charset. some of the char display is not shown correctly
👀 thanks for reporting! What's your geographical region?
Following up on this, we pushed an update to fix Tofu Boxes (what you're seeing). Give it a shot and let us know if this is solved for you!
so... if you cant serve all customers you lose all coins you earn that opening am i understanding that right? if so cant progress due to being unable to get enough meat for a completion due to lack of upgrades
Yes that's right! Good feedback, we'll balance that out. Can you screenshot which upgrades you had when you weren't able to progress?
love the game! it looks great and plays well! can't wait to continue to playing!
