Day 5
Alright, so day 5 will probably be the easiest of the hard levels for you, so here's what you do you:

Firstly, immediately make 5 pizzas (burgers if using the Candy's theme) and have a full one on standby still in the stove.

Next, drop by the center and eat a single pizza (or burger).

Next, you'll want to go over to the vending machine and get your thirst as low as possible.

Next, move into the center and eat 2 pizzas (or burgers), then wait for a moment before eating a third. Wait for your boredom meter to lower plenty as well.

Important tip: Make sure you don't waste the food by eating when the bar has less in it than what on item would cover.

After that, you should make about 2-ish pizzas (or burgers) for standby when you get hungry.

You should aim to repeat the last 4 steps until 6PM, but feel free to tweak to your liking.

Take turns lowering thirst and boredom to zero, hunger goes hand in hand with boredom as you can quench them both at the same time.
Endless
This is just Day 5, but endless (duh). This is the one that gave me the most trouble, but please look at the following linked guide, as it is what helped me get past 7:30, which was my top score using the day 5 method: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3303195646
Sticky Floors
Right, so this is where the game started pissing me off (probably due to a skill issue on my part, but thats not important right now).

This one is like day 5, but the floor gets sticky sometimes. Why? I don't know.

You can probably be able to use a similar strategy to day 5, with added button mashing when you get stuck. Due to the time losses from this, you should aim to be flexible with your timings of how long you spend at each station. Leave the vending machine when your boredom/ hunger reaches a little over 7/8 of the bar to give yourself time if you get stuck.
Expiring Pizzas
This one is like day 5, but the pizzas slowly expire (they have a bar under them depicting how much time they have left).

Stockpiling pizzas may sound risky with this gamemode, but just make sure you pause what you are doing occasionally to go and eat and/or make a pizza to reset the counter if you choose to do so. This one requires quite a bit of juggling.

Important tip: The timer is only for the pizza at the top, if the timer expires, only one pizza goes away. Also, eating and producing pizzas resets the counter, but I already said that.
Mini-Pizzas
This one has your pizzas be traded out with smaller bite-sized ones, kinda like the Crazy Puffs at Little Caesar's. Popgoes' pizzeria may have a lawsuit incoming from the Caesar.

In this level, use a smiliar strategy to basic day 5, but pausing to make pizzas more, as you can still only hold 5 at a time. They still take the same amount of time to eat though :(
Coin Collect
In this level, you need to collect 10 coins before 6PM, throwing another thing you have to manage into the mix. If you want, you can just pause whatever it is you are doing, collect the coin, and go back to what you were doing, but for me, they usually spawn at a time when i needed to go to that station anyway.

Important tip: The coins only spawn on the left and right side of the screen. They also don't seem to spawn on the same side as the player, so you can control where it spawns that way.
Blind Resources
Look, just play this the same as day 5. You don't really need to see the exact level if you can guesstimate based off the rate is raises by. Simple.
The End
Thanks for uhhh takin a gander over here. comment or like or something if you want, IDC. I might have gotten a couple things wronng but, oh well. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

New theory??! :O

In the mini pizzas challenge, you can't use this pattern. You have to go from the oven to vending machine and if your boredum reaches critical level, you have to wait. In this mode, I'd recommend, to fully keep your pizza storage up, as it takes less time to make them and you will need them, because you need 2-3 pizzas to fill your hunger bar up, if its only half full, instead of 1-2 pizzas.

@TheColbsters that was one of the ones that gave me a whole lot of trouble. make sure you stock up on pizzas as you normally would, but take a break from what ever you are doing to eat a pizza when one is about to expire. Also keep in mind that making a pizza resets the timer.

Even with the patch Expiring Pizza is the only game I can't do. I barely make it to 5:15 on a lucky run. Anyone have any advice for that one in particular?

@Extrode150 Besides normal day 5, blind resources was the easiest for me.

Can anybody tell me what challenge is the easiest? I only have the time for one today.

God I hope they do a patch on this game soon, and make some of the challenges easier.
Also a point shop would be nice to have!
