PlateUp
What does randomization do to this game?
PlateUp's randomizer integrates with Archipelago to shuffle dish unlocks, appliance unlocks, day progression gates, and upgrade items into the multiworld pool. Day completions, stars, franchise milestones, achievements, and dish-specific checks all become location checks that send items to other players.
