Hello once again everyone!
We're sorry for the radio silence, we've been handling some things behind the scenes after the Unity incident a few months ago, but now It's time to talk about the future of Run a Café, as well as the next big update for Run a Café!
The Future Plans of Run a Café
1) First thing first, we're wanting to try to bring the experimental branch to Epic Games!
The experimental branch is meant for public testing of new features we want to bring into the next big update, so we want everyone able to experience it!
And finding bugs.. like this one!
with that being said, we're also wanting to release more frequent experimental branch updates!
2) The next update coming out will be a SMALLER one! This one will mainly be focused on some minor QoL things, some balance changes, and some changes based on feedback from our discord!
Speaking of discord, if you haven't joined it yet... you should! Join our Discord!
Update 3 Information!
Now... to give some light into what's going to be releasing in Update 3!
Update 3 will be focused on the 4 C's : Customization, Cleaning, Café Management, and the Café itself!
Please note, there may be changes between this post and the actual release!
Lets dive deeper into it!
Customization
We want each player to have the ability to make their café feel like more of their own, by adding the option to change how the tables look, the paintings look, add decorations, change wall color, and more!
Cleaning
Customers (as well as you) will start being able to make messes, such as accidentally spilling coffee, leaving wrappers, and other things!
This will be your job to clean it up to keep your Café rating up!
Café Management
We also want to make it easier to help manage your Café! So, we're going to be overhauling the computer! To split items up by websites, as well add a new site that will allow you to view your Café stats, and run discounts to try to bring in more customers!
Café
We know sometimes for the current Café can be difficult for some people, and that's fine! We're looking into a way to control the difficulty in this update, which is why we're going to be adding a 2nd Café Variant! This one will be smaller, and easier to manage!
Closing Thoughts
Once again, we'd like to apologize for going radio silent while we figured out how we wanted to approach everything again after the whole Unity incident a few months back!
Thank you all for the support, and we hope to make the Café running experience more fun and enjoyable!
