I honestly don't have any major complaints with Overcooked; the core formula works extremely well in that you have to prepare and optimize the preparation of ingredients as best as you can to achieve the highest score, with plenty of obstacles that scale up as you progress through the levels. The presentation could be improved though, the graphics are basic 3D cartoon models with nothing too distinct in its artstyle, and I can't really recall any tracks from the soundtrack. I think there's a story too, but I don't recall much concerning the overall scope of the narrative? If I really had to nitpick, I wish that there were a way to pass ingredients directly to teammates without having to plop down ingredients on the countertop first, and sometimes the dashing could be a little imprecise and get my character stuck on the ledge when trying to dash between the truck gaps. I'm definitely looking forward to trying out Overcooked 2 when I'm planning a meet up with friends in a few months.
