About this game
Description
Supplied by the Steam store
Upgrade chef skill to unlock the dessert recipes
The player is going to help the shiba grow up from newbies to a professional chef. As the raise of skill rate, the shiba could unlock more and more various dessert recipes. Those lovely shiba shaped desserts will satisfy the taste buds and eyes for the customers. And also warming up their hearts.
Busy preparing ingredients and enjoy the process of making desserts
Knead the glutinous rice flour into a dough, drop it into boiling water, and once it floats, scoop it out and let it cool. Carefully drizzle with a special secret sugar-soy sauce... Ta-da! The fragrant Shiba Riceball is ready to shine. What other cute desserts will you make with your furry paws to sell today?
Every second matters! Pack dessert bento for your lovely customers
The only reason that various customers are in the long queue is that they can’t wait to taste your delicious handmade dessert. In a limited time, you’ll put the correct desserts into bento boxes and sell them. Their happy faces are your biggest motivation.
Decorate the kitchen and shop by hardworking earning money
No matter in reality or in the game, money is so useful! The player needs to use money to buy the ingredients for desserts, different kitchen utensils, beautiful decorations for kitchen and shop etc. We even use it to buy lovely aprons for the shiba chef.
Grandma loves you so much!
What’s the experience of having a grandma who loves traveling so much? The grandma always remembers her favourite grandchild. She will send the player postcards during the traveling. Those fun and interesting postcards become our precious collection. The only thing I could say is that the love by grandma is invincible!

Version 1.0.4 - Bugs Fixed
Hello lovely players! This is Ya Mao.Version 1.0.4 Bugs Fixed:Fixed Coffee Speed Boost: Previously, stepping outside after drinking coffee caused the speed effect to wear off upon returning to the kitchen, and Chai-Chai's running speed was slightly too slow during the Pastry Chef Star Challenge. Both issues are now fixed—Chai-Chai’s speed is back to normal, and the coffee effect will carry over properly.Updated Mailbox Sound Effect: The mailbox notification sound used to play even when the SFX volume was set to zero. Now, mailbox audio correctly respects your volume settings.Updated 1-Star Chef Goal Display: After upgrading to 1-Star Pastry Chef, the registration task on the goal page didn't show as completed. This issue has been resolved.Fixed Tutorial Ingredient Loss: Rapidly pressing the button during the tutorial could accidentally trigger it twice, causing the second ingredient t...

Hello lovely players! This is Ya Mao.Version 1.0.3 Bugs Fixed:Wall decorations disappeared after the kitchen expansion: Upon investigation, I found that a bug caused these decorations to be placed out of sight. I’ve moved those misplaced items into your Storage, updated your Deco Points to the correct total, and added a pop-up notification. If you didn’t receive a notification in the wall decoration system, it means you weren't affected by this bug, so no worries!Thanks a lot for all the reports so far. Please don't hesitate to let me know if you meet any new bugs. Thank you so much!Best,Ya Mao

This is Ya Mao.Version 1.0.2 Bugs Fixed:Egg separator not unlocking properly – Slightly adjusted the detection logic to ensure the egg separator's description displays correctly and its functionality works as intended.Wall deco/ground item relocation issue – Expanded the interaction trigger area and applied DPI scaling, ensuring better responsiveness across different screen resolutions.Over-sensitive hold-to-delete on save slots – Added a ~0.3-second delay threshold to prevent triggering the long-press action too quickly. A normal click will now load the game properly without triggering the countdown circle.Thanks a lot for all the reports so far. Please don't hesitate to let me know if you meet any new bugs. Thank you so much!Best,Ya Mao
Read full update on Steam ↗Version 1.0.1 - Bug Fixed
Hello lovely players! This is Ya Mao.I have some exciting news: the Ground Item mode bug is officially fixed! Now you can enjoy the game normally without accidentally selecting the wrong category.Based on your feedback, I've added a rotation feature for kitchenware! Now, when placing kitchenware, you can rotate it so your Shiba faces it straight on while looking at the camera. Other items like tables, decorations, and ingredient shelfs don't have rotation enabled since their appearance doesn't change when rotated (for example, tables look identical from back sides).Once again, I deeply apologize for the inconvenience and confusion. Thank you so much for your patience!Best,Ya Mao

I also implemented several adjustments based on player feedback.1. Detailed Development Updates(1) Festival Poster Design & ProductionTo be honest, I am not naturally a 2D artist because most of my skill points are invested in 3D. However, as a solo developer with no plans for outsourcing, I poured my heart into completing these designs myself. While the process was slow, the upside is that the art style perfectly matches the game’s atmosphere and the messaging is clear and easy to read.(2) Re-evaluating the Game EconomyThe economy is the backbone of the gam...

Hello, lovely players! I’m Ya Mao, and here’s the July game development update for Shiba Sweet.Progress in July was similar to that in June. It was relatively slow, mainly because I got sick from accumulated exhaustion. Even though I had reduced my level of physical activity, I still often felt tired. So I took some time to adjust my diet and lifestyle. Now I try my best to eat healthy, satisfying meals every day and keep up a regular exercise routine. I’m gradually feeling better and slowly returning to the rhythm of developing the game.Here is a more detailed look at what I worked on this month:1. Created a small blender icon and animationIn the game, players need to place the correct ingredients into the blender in order to start the machine and produce the right semi-finished products.

Hello, lovely players! I’m Ya Mao, and here’s the April & May game development update for Shiba Sweet.Development in June was relatively slow because one of my close family members was injured and had to stay in the hospital. I spent a lot of time taking care of him and staying by his side.

Hello, lovely players! I’m Ya Mao, and here’s the March game development update for *Shiba Sweet*. This month, most of my focus has been on creating the most important element in the game—the "Recipe Book." This includes programming the 3D page-flipping logic and designing the book’s content. It really feels like I’ve published an adorable little baking book, except this one exists only in the game for players to flip through and explore delicious dessert recipes. A. Development Highlights for This Month: a. Completing the Recipe Book’s Page-Flipping Logic I initially attempted to solve the page-flipping logic a few months ago, but I ran into persistent bugs that I couldn’t fix no matter how hard I tried. So, I decided to set it aside and work on other parts of the game, giving myself some breathing room to ease the frustration of development. When I reviewed my to-do list this month,...

Hello, lovely players! I’m YaMao, and here’s the February game development update for *Shiba Sweet*. This month, I’ve continued to gracefully jump between 3D art and programming, and even ventured into the unfamiliar territory of translation. A. Development Highlights for This Month: a. Improved the Black Shiba Merchant's kitchen expansion dialogue system To allow players to place more tables and baking tools, the kitchen can be expanded as it upgrades, with players deciding if they want to expand. Ordering the expansion is easy—just talk to the Black Shiba Merchant and confirm the expansion request. And you’ll get a bigger kitchen in 3 days!

Hello, lovely players! I’m YaMao, and this is the third devlog for Shiba Sweet, as well as the first one for 2025—marking exactly one year since I started developing this game solo!
