Terminal Orders: A Horror Cooking Game

Link to Pages - https://nottoezz.github.io/OrdersPlease/

Welcome to Terminal Orders, a browser-based horror cooking game built using JavaScript, HTML, CSS, and Three.js.

🎮 Game Overview

You wake up in a strange place. A terminal glows in the darkness, waiting for input...

In this game, you take on the role of a player trapped in a dimly-lit kitchen with only a computer terminal to take and complete strange food orders. Using the TheMealDB API, you must:

• Enter ingredients to generate meal orders
• Complete orders by following cryptic preparation steps
• Survive the consequences of failing to cook correctly

The experience blends terminal-based gameplay, ambient horror audio, and eerie 3D visuals to deliver a unique interactive experience.

🛠️ Technologies Used

• JavaScript / HTML / CSS
• Three.js for 3D rendering
• Canvas API for the terminal screen
• TheMealDB API for dynamic meal data
• sessionStorage for order persistence
• Custom shaders, lighting effects, and post-processing
