Tiidy Shell · No Space for Salad

They’re not cooking today.
Even tiny space chefs need a break sometimes.

A little 3D break for our main character, outside the game engine.

Devlog #1 — The Beginnings of a Game We’ve now been working on No Space For Salad for a little over 2 months, and things have started to take shape. In this post, I’d like to share a closer look at our development process. Maybe some...

In our latest devlog, we dive into how we organize our work on No Space For Salad, and share what we learned from our very first playtest!
Milestones, loops, co-op tests… it’s all in there ↓

Last week, we invited some friends to test version 0.1 of the game. The goal was to validate some core features early on. We got great feedback and new ideas for the next version — stay tuned! We ran our very first playtest with friends

A new video about our very first private playtest! 🌟
Friends tend to go easy on you during playtests, but that didn’t stop us from stressing out a bit 😅 But it went really well!

We still don’t know exactly what they want.
But we’re pretty sure they’re harmless. Probably...
Will they be useful? Will they eat your leftovers? Will they unionize?
We’ll let you know. Give us some ideas!

These little guys love to quietly follow the player… but only when their back is turned.
It’s cute. And a bit weird.
In Lapinaut, players had fun building a tiny army of Fou-Fleurs trailing behind them, so of course we had to bring them back 🌼

Today I want to introduce you to a very tiny, very silly creature we call the Fou-Fleur 🌸
(Sorry for the pun, French speakers will get it.)
You might’ve seen them in our jam game Lapinaut, they’re back in No Space For Salad!

We skipped last week, but here comes a bigger #ScreenshotSaturday!
First blocking pass for planet exploration 🪐
This part of the game should feel fun, varied, and full of surprises.
One small step for blocking, one big leap for salad! 🥳

You can now stack empty plates to clean tables faster :D What do you think of the effect? It’s driven by Perlin noise and a couple of animation curves/velocity lerping... Plate stacking is in ! we added some “fake physics” to make the stack wobble

New dev video just dropped! 🌟
We had a lot of fun with empty plates, stack them high!
Your job is to clear the tables after each alien... they won’t clean up after themselves 🍽️

Every machine in No Space for Salad has its own personality.

Meet the Zap-Zap: a microwave-ish device that sends your dish to another dimension… and brings it back, hot... yeah 🥧

Named after the sound it makes: zap... zap!

We’ve heard your feedback: dynamic split screen (like in Lego Star Wars) isn’t for everyone.

So we’re also adding an option to force permanent static vertical split screen, for those who prefer a classic setup.

Accessibility matters!

When players are in different zones (one cooking, one exploring), the game switches to classic vertical split screen, stable and easy to read.

It keeps both players active at the same time, wherever they are 🚚🪐

We’ve implemented two split-screen modes based on where the players are:

When both players are in the same area (e.g. inside the restaurant), the split screen is dynamic: it merges when you're close and splits as you move apart, adapting to your positions.

Building smart split screen logic for a co-op game is harder than it sounds. After 4 days of bugs and weird edge cases, it finally works Took a while — but we’re proud of the result. Thoughts? Split screen almost broke us (but it works now) #indiegame

Some news heeere!
We’ve been working hard on a smoother local co-op experience with our split-screen
This took a lot of headaches
