Burger Shift: Team Rush: Prologue : DUMPSTER DUTY — Update Now Live!

DUMPSTER DUTY — Update Now Live!

Hello workers!

Trash bins now fill up, item handling is smoother, trays are easier to prep, and customers react more accurately with new voice lines and tip bonuses. Difficulty has also been overhauled: easier for beginners, more challenging for experienced players, and more rewarding for skilled work.

Dumpster Duty: Empty the Bins!

Cleanup is no longer instantaneous. Kitchen bins and customer receptacles now fill up gradually. If a bin hits 100%, it’s blocked until someone deals with it. Don’t let it sneak up on you!

Interact with a full bin to pull out a trash bag, then haul it outside to the dumpster to clear the bin and keep things moving.

Stack Smarter: Improved Item Interactions

You can now place single items from a held stack, letting you prep or arrange things one at a time without juggling the whole stack.

Holding items and aiming at a stack? You’re in control:

• Grab the whole stack without putting down your items.
• Or merge the aimed stack into your hand.

Quick Tray Prep

Preparing a tray for customers is now smoother. Grab a tray and right-click items to add them while holding it. Or continue placing items onto a tray on the counter the old way.

Difficulty & Rewards Update

We’ve adjusted the difficulty settings: easier for beginners, harder for experienced players, and more rewards for skilled play.

• Faster service now earns extra tips. Speed pays off!
• Trainee: Customer patience doubled, making the easiest difficulty more forgiving.
• Supervisor: 10% more customers than before.
• Manager: 35% more customers than before. Harder, faster, and more chaotic.
• High popularity now brings even more customers, rewarding your skill at keeping the restaurant busy.
• Higher difficulties grant more money, with bonuses visible when creating a game.

Enhanced Customer Reactions

Customers aren’t just shouting their happiest lines for every order anymore. Their reactions now actually match how well you did. Mid-quality orders trigger a whole new set of “that’s fine” voice lines, while perfect orders unlock the extra-happy reactions and fun new popup comments above their heads. And with the new tip system, playing well doesn’t just feel better, it pays better too!
