Final Serving

Final Serving is a spooky restaurant management game made for the GMTK Game Jam 2026 theme: Count Down.

You run a gloomy night-time restaurant where every customer is dangerously hungry. Each customer arrives with a recipe and a countdown above their head. Collect ingredients, brew the correct soup, and serve them before their timer reaches zero.

Failure to serve someone in time results their death and you losing a life. Lose all your lives, and the restaurant closes for good.

Survive the night, earn money, and use the daytime upgrade menu to improve your movement speed, brewing speed, income, customer patience, lives, and brewing capacity. Each new night becomes more difficult.
