If you love cozy management sims with charm to spare, The Hawkers is one to keep on your radar.
In The Hawkers, your goal isn’t just to thrive. Your goal is to help keep your hometown from being swallowed up by the nefarious Mr. Bunny. The powerful businessman is buying up everything around you. You’ll need to not only turn a forgotten farm into a thriving agricultural empire while also building your own business and discovering who you are.

Your choices and how you build your life in the town of Greenleaf matter. The effort you put into building your farm and business affects your story.

Grow your connections with neighbors by listening to their stories and attending town events. They’re important pieces to your story, too.
What really makes The Hawkers shine is its adorable, handcrafted art style. Every character, item, and environment has been lovingly drawn by hand, giving the game a warm, personal feel that’s hard to resist. All work on this game is done by the solo developer, you can follow them on X here. From the gameplay systems to the visuals, everything has been created by one person, and you can feel that passion in every detail.

Chef RPG is a beautiful culinary adventure set in a lovely pixel art world. You recently became the owner of a derelict restaurant called Le Sequoia, once managed by a world-famous chef. Even the town of White Ash Harbor has seen better days. Your job is to not only prove yourself as a chef and rocket Le Sequoia back to fame, but to restore White Ash Harbor, too. Get to know several fantastic characters and even fall in love. Hunt, fish, harvest, and buy ingredients to create the tastiest dishes around to prove yourself as a chef. You have big shoes to fill, after all!
Flavors Update
This major Chef RPG update features some excellent general improvements and fixes, but it also includes so much more! For one, the player’s home has been overhauled. The house is located just past Le Sequoia, which is convenient! It’s not just for sleeping, though. You can also conduct culinary research there. Visit your kitchen and place the ingredients within the fridge. Once you have enough ingredients ready, use the central table to begin research. There are some specialized research facilities to unlock that will become extensions of your home. Sleep is necessary, but all of your culinary research will help you become a renowned chef.
Furthermore, there are new ingredient makers to use and qualities for the dishes you make. The Chocolate Maker and Soup Vat blueprints can now be unlocked from the new standard research tree. You can also unlock a Cheese Maker and Cream Churner through research. Making Cheese and Cream requires Milk, a new consumable (not an ingredient!) you can buy from shops and vending machines. Dishes you cook now have new qualities. There is Flavors and Temperature. These qualities will be determined by which ingredients you use, but only a few quests use them for now.
You’ll encounter the Sea Traders, boat-fairing shops, on certain days of the week in Chef RPG. Run (you can do that now!) down to the docks on Tuesdays to find the veggie seller and on Wednesdays for the junk seller. Saturdays and Sundays, you’ll find the SS Ambrose. This large trading ship has a furniture store where you’ll find new furniture items, a seed seller, an ingredients seller, and a rare items shop. Also aboard the SS Ambrose is the brand new romanceable character Sahim. Just note that the romance system is still a work in progress, but you can still get to know this tatted-up cutie. There are some new character quests you can complete that serve as the first part of their personal stories. You can check out the Steam news for details (with spoilers) on how to access those quests.
Release Date
The Flavors Update was released today for everyone to play. Now is a great time to pick up Chef RPG and play through this lovely game! Pick it up today on Steam.
