Booklet Draft

Background Story

Little Elf admires his father, who is once the most renowned baker in the world. Gusteau Chef, the Top Award in bakery, is in memory of his father. However, during an accident, his father is gone. The little Elf is unwilling to living simply under the glory of his father, so he undertakes his father's cake business, and hopes to restore the past glory. With the heirloom of the Elf's family business, the magic creams, the little Elf begins its journey to the cake master.

Game Concept

The magic creams are too active and the only thing they want to do is to pour on the cakes, which eventually makes awkward cake and immerses the little Elf under the patron's complaint. Your goal is to help the little elf manipulate the valve, so as to make the creams get out in order and eventually makes the desired cake of the customers. Once successfully passing a level, you will be awarded with a medal, and all types of cake will be recorded on the collection page so as to show the progress of the little Elf.

Operating Instrutions

Note: Use arrow keys to control Elf to go in different directions and strategically push the valves to make the colored creams merge and move to the terminal in the expected way. Remember that sometimes the valve-push process is irreversible so you should think twice before pushing it!

Collection Board

Valve

By rotating the valves, you can open the road in different direcions, thus controlling the creams!

Cream

The magic cream is smart and follows the shortest way towards the exit. The deeper the color is, the longer the distance.

Toppings

Picky customers may demand toppings including vanilla and chocolate be added to a specific layer of cake. To help Elf get this topping, the relevant cream should flow across the topping so as to bring it to the exit.

Color Merging Principle

When two creams of different colors meet with each other, they will merge following the principle of three colors so that in all 6 creams are made using only 3 types of ingredients.

Exit

Here is the exit of the cream. Creams getting to this point will be processed to one layer of cake. Notice that the creams enter first will be the bottom layer.

Game Mechanism

The player should control the move of the Elf and strategically push the valves to make the colored creams merge and move to the terminal in the expected way. Inappropriate color merging and cream sequence are lurking on the Elf’s dream path to mastery.

Levels

Level 1

Little Elf is a green hand now. After reading the recipes, he decided to try a relatively easy cake at first. Elf's favourite fruit is mango, straberry and cherry. Please help him to make out this cake!

Level 2

After months of practice, Little Elf gradually masters some techniques to make cakes, so he reopens the bakery. The first customer is a little girl who loves chocolates and she orders a mango cake with the chocolate toppings.

Level 3

After years of accumulation, Little Elf's store enjoys a good reputation among the local residents. Here comes the good news! The Gusteau Chef warmly invites to Little Elf to participate in the competition. Little Elf won't miss this golden chance and he made up his mind to try the masterpiece of his father -- the supreme rosy champagne milk cake with the vanilla toppings.
