Cookout Calamity revolves around Eris, who takes on the responsibility of arranging a cookout for her and her family. As a perfectionist, time evades her and the family is arriving early and hungry. To buy her some time, Eris enlists her siblings to help protect the table as the final preparations are set.

GAME PLAY

The objective is to fill up the table progress bar before the timer runs out. You can fill this bar by getting near the table and interacting with it. However, "enemies”, the player’s family members, will try to hinder this process. Each family member has unique stats for speed and how much they take away from the progress bar.

To prevent your family members from reaching the table and reducing the progress bar value, you can pick up and place your siblings, who will act as your allies. Each sibling has a specific range in which they can detect and distract a family member from. When a family member enters this range, they will be stopped by the sibling and after a set amount of time the distracted family member will leave the screen.
