Hot Pot For One

Hot Pot For One is a short first-person experience about making hot pot for yourself at home on Christmas Eve. Through simple interactions, you add ingredients to the pot, watch them cook, eat them and eventually dump away the leftovers. The game explores the loneliness of being away from family and friends, and the comfort and satisfaction of eating familiar food from home.
