</>What does Sous Chef Sprint do?
Half of Overcooked is footwork. The recipe is easy, the chopping is easy, and then you lose the plate because your chef jogs across a moving platform at the speed of a Sunday stroll. Sous Chef Sprint puts your chef's pace on a slider. Nudge it a little for a kitchen that feels responsive, or push it up and turn the whole team into a blur. Dash gets its own slider, so you can decide whether your shoulder barge is a nudge or a cannonball. Turn on quick recharge and the dash is ready again almost immediately, which makes the long stretched-out kitchens far less painful. Every change lands the moment you move a slider, so you can tune it mid-service until it feels right. Switch the mod off and your chefs go straight back to their normal pace.
</>What is Sous Chef Sprint?
Half of Overcooked is footwork, and the default jog does not cut it on stretched-out kitchens. Sous Chef Sprint puts chef speed and dash power on their own sliders you can adjust mid-service, with a quick recharge option so your shoulder barge is ready again almost immediately. Nudge it for feel, or turn the team into a blur. Free mod from ProjectMods, the community-first PC mod manager for 400+ games.
</>Common questions about Sous Chef Sprint
What does Sous Chef Sprint do in Overcooked?
Sous Chef Sprint puts your chef's movement in Overcooked on sliders. One controls how fast they run, with 1.0 being the game's normal kitchen pace, and another controls how hard your dash launches you. There is also a quick recharge option that makes the dash ready again almost immediately instead of leaving you waiting. Half of Overcooked is footwork, and plenty of runs fall apart not because anyone burned the soup but because a chef was still jogging toward the hatch when the timer ran out. This mod lets you decide how fast that jog actually is.
What is the difference between Chef Speed and Dash Power?
Chef Speed sets your running pace around the Overcooked kitchen, where 1.0 is the game's default. Raise it and every trip between the board, the pan and the hatch gets shorter. Dash Power is about the burst instead. It controls how hard your dash launches you, so a low value is the normal little shove and a high one turns it into a cannonball that crosses a whole section at once. Dash Power also makes shoulder-barging a teammate considerably more dramatic, which is either a feature or a crime depending on who you ask. Tune them separately to get the feel you want.
What does Quick Dash Recharge change?
Quick Dash Recharge removes almost all of the wait between dashes in Overcooked. Normally the dash has a cooldown that stops you chaining it, which is fine in a compact kitchen and miserable in the long, stretched-out levels where you are constantly running the full width of the map. With quick recharge on, the dash is available again almost immediately, so you can string bursts together and treat it as your main way of getting around rather than an occasional shortcut. It pairs naturally with a raised Dash Power slider: strong dashes you can actually use back to back.
Can I tune the sliders while a level is running?
Yes. Every slider in Sous Chef Sprint takes effect immediately, so you can adjust chef speed or dash power mid-service in Overcooked and feel the change on your very next step. There is also an Enabled master switch sitting above the sliders. Flip that off and your chefs go back to their normal pace with your settings preserved for later. That live tuning matters because the right speed is a feel thing, not a number. Most players start with a small increase, run half a level, then keep nudging until movement feels responsive rather than slippery and hard to stop.
Which Overcooked levels does Sous Chef Sprint help with most?
The ones built around distance and hazards. Overcooked loves stretching a kitchen across two trucks, an icy floor, a river with moving platforms, or a map that splits in half and drifts apart mid-round. Those levels are not testing your cooking, they are testing your patience with a slow jog. Raising chef speed shortens every one of those crossings, and a stronger dash with quick recharge turns awkward gaps into a single burst. It is also a genuine accessibility help for anyone who finds the default pace frustrating, since you can set movement somewhere comfortable and leave it there.
