Prototype completed.

Small prototype with about 2 months of work.

Started by focusing on the cats before passing that to one of our coders to work on the cat interactions.  I think started with cooking mini-games.  We tested a few ideas and decided to go with donuts (simple mesh swap and material change), pancakes which are mostly moving meshes and mesh morph, and lastly the cocoa which used a custom material and rotation of the whisk.

I then did feedback VFX with Niagara.  This includes icons for needs, hearts, and so forth.
