Living on Plain Pasta Steam Page Goes Live After Viral 'Trashy Coffee Talk' Concept

Indie studio Granité Works has opened the Steam store page for Living on Plain Pasta, a short adventure game where players cook for a messy senior using limited ingredients. The game was previously known for its viral 'trashy Coffee Talk' concept on X. It features conversation and choice-based gameplay set over one summer, with multiple endings. A Q3 2026 release is planned.

The game's developer described it as a short experience focused on making the time spent in the senior's apartment memorable, rather than offering many activities. Players will cook dishes from scarce fridge ingredients, engage in idle conversation, and occasionally venture out at night or to the beach. The choices made affect the ending. The game's concept first gained attention on X under the tagline 'trashy Coffee Talk,' and now has a formal title and store presence.
