Doner Madness

Cooking is routine. Chaos is constant. You run a doner stand with one hand, zero luck, and a mountain of debt. Orders would be simple if the meat didn’t burn, the kitchen didn’t randomly catch fire, rats didn’t infest everything, beggars didn’t demand money, and the lights didn’t go out at the worst possible moment. In Doner Madness you must endure a never-ending test of nerves and timing while balance slips through your fingers.

Smoke cigarettes to manage stress—it's a terrible idea, yet incredibly effective—while you juggle limited power outlets, flicker-prone lights, and a growing pile of problems. Fight fires that erupt with almost cinematic randomness, chase rats through tight corridors, and rush to keep the orders moving as the kitchen collapses around you. Every shift is a new catastrophe, every day a fresh battle, and the debt you owe keeps ticking away with merciless persistence.

The core challenge is survival: can you keep the counter staffed, the meat cooked, and the customers fed long enough to pay off what you owe? Or will the weight of the debt, the dangers of the kitchen, and the relentless chaos swallow you whole and leave nothing but smoke and ash behind?

Key Mechanics

• One-handed doner cooking — a compact, tactile experience that emphasizes precision under pressure.
• Stress system — manage tension with cigarettes (optional), though sanity isn’t guaranteed.
• Random kitchen fires — fires spark without warning, testing your reflexes and decision‑making.
• Debt system — a relentless clock that doesn’t care about your excuses or fatigue.
• Limited electricity — too many devices, too few sockets forces tough, strategic choices.
• Infestations — rats and other nuisances threaten every corner of the stand, mercy not guaranteed.

Design and atmosphere fuse to create a nerve-wracking experience where every second counts. The world around you leans into chaos: equipment breaks, lights dim, and a relentless sense of urgency pushes you toward breaking points you didn’t know you had. Can you outlast the day, outsmart the debt, and keep your little doner shop standing—or will the mounting pressures consume everything you built?
