Release date announcement! 📣

Uncle Lee's Cookbook releases on May 12, at 1 PM UTC. That's less than one month away!

It will be available on Steam, GOG.com, and @itch.io. All DRM-free, since DRM sucks. Entirely made by humans, since AI sucks more than DRM.

SUCH a good game, reminded me of the old Discworld point-and-clicks

Uncle Lee's Cookbook is now available on #NintendoSwitch! And it's on sale!

Uncle Lee promises the risks of fire are minimal. Probably. Better keep that fire extinguisher handy, just in case.

Note that we're currently having an issue in which the game does not show up on the Nintendo store website/store app in Europe. It is however available when looking for it on a Nintendo Switch directly. We've working with Nintendo to get this fixed as soon as possible.

What a splendid bundle. And (with absolutely no bias whatsoever being that I happen to be in it) the 8th down looks particularly super-duperatious.

TRY-IT-DAILY #3: UNCLE LEE'S COOKBOOK (@relativelypainlessgames.com) is a collection of point-n-click adventures caused by a reality scrabbling uncle. Chunky pixels, bright colours, and full voice acting really shine in this simplified take on the PnC formula. Puzzles are interesting, and the-

I've solved Uncle Lee's Cookbook: Five Recipes for Disaster by @relativelypainlessgames.com!

Great game with 5 chapters. The last chapter is the AdventureX jam 2024 entry Ines in: Triple Trouble, but this time with voice acting. 😎

You forgot "bespoke game engine you made yourself" 😉

We also won't be participating. We took a stance against the organizer's ridiculous policy in AI. We respect your choice of course, and while on the one hand we wish you the best as a judge, on the other hand we kinda have to wish you'll only see slop entries, since we called for a boycott 😬

Great job!

Wow! Or first Ines cosplay (as far as we know)!
