I guess you could say we have been cooking up something 🍳 Introducing: Chefs Arena - a couch co-op party game for your whole family, friends, or your enemies - depending on who you want to settle a food dispute with. #bongfish #chefsarena #owngame #game #gamedev
blue background with illustrations of various characters, like a pink fish, multiple chickens, a chili with a mouth and a big green dragon with a cleaver stuck in its nose, one character dressed as a knight with blue hair is jumping and trying to avoid the characters, right in front of the knight is a logo saying "Chefs Arena" and behind is a king with a crown on its head and cuttlery in its hands with an open mouth ready to catch the food the knight is holding. Sprinkled throughout the entire scene are pinkish squares.
