Overcooked is described as a chaotic couch co-op cooking game for one to four players. Playing the game recently with the developer it was evidently much more than this.
What starts as a challenge to deftly control buttons and sticks soon turns into one of player-communication. Like any great multi-player game there is as much going on in the room as there is on the screen.
As you work your way through the various Culinary Quest levels the difficulty and complexity steadily increases. Sometimes there are floor triggered locked doors that require a further level of collaboration at other times the kitchen split across multiple moving vehicles that only come together momentarily to exchange ingredients and dishes.
Overcooked is planed for release on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC later in 2016.
