Major Demo Update! 🍖 ✨ [Full v.0.4.0 Changelog]

Hello everyone,
This is Alfred, the Game Director of Food Devils!
After listening to your feedback, we've worked hard for months and we've just released version 0.4.0 of the public demo. It features new ways to learn and test the game's mechanics, faster Encounter options, extensive UI improvements and a large batch of fixes.
The changes marked with ❗ are the most important!
⭐ New content and features:
❗ Added the Training Grounds! Before setting off on an expedition, you can now access a series of "puzzle-like" simulations designed to teach and test specific game mechanics. Training Grounds are organised by difficulty and can be entered from the area outside the restaurant.
❗ Added the Glossary! You can access it from the context menu during Encounters by pressing ESC or clicking on an empty tile. It contains reference information about Classes, Movement Types, the Flavor Triangle, Stats and other essential mechanics. This has also allowed us to reduce the number of repetitive tooltips.
❗ Added the option to disable the Combat Phase during Encounters. When this option is enabled, units fight directly on the map without transitioning to the extended attack animations. This makes Encounters considerably faster for players who prefer a quicker gameplay experience. You can change this setting at any time.
Added Skip and Auto controls to the game's dialogues.
Added labels explaining the general role of each Skill Pack type, and added an animation for opening a pack.
🍀 Quality of Life improvements:
❗ Significantly improved the Skill Equip screen:
Unselected Adventurer portraits are now darker, making the currently selected unit much clearer.
Additional information is now displayed for the selected Adventurer, including HP, Movement Type and Class.
A floating exclamation mark now appears over the Skill Equip icon in the Overworld whenever you have new skills available to equip.
❗ Refactored the tooltips system in response to player feedback:
All nested tooltips can now be opened by pressing the Info button only once.
Skill tooltips now have opaque backgrounds and coloured borders indicating their nesting level. Redundant info has been moved to the Glossary feature we described before.
The system should now be easier to read and navigate overall. We're especially interested in hearing your feedback about these changes!
❗ Added more information to the combat preview. Damage dealt before or after combat is now displayed separately from the unit's direct attack damage, making additional damage from status effects, passive skills and similar effects easier to understand.
Remaining Movement is now displayed and updated in real time as a unit moves during the Movement Phase.
Action buttons during Encounters are now larger and spaced farther apart. The currently selected action also has a yellow border.
You can now press ESC to open the context menu during Encounters. Previously, this was only possible by clicking on an empty tile.
Added new colours for status stack counts in the combat preview.
When an Adventurer with at least 1 Hunger is targeted by a potentially lethal attack, the combat preview now displays an "X" instead of revealing whether their survival effect will trigger.
Added a Class label to the Adventurer selection screen used when preparing your party.
Improved the visibility of highlighted elements in the Merchant Node and Set Menu interfaces, alongside several general UI and UX improvements.
Improved menu navigation after confirming changes:
After confirming a selection or changing Furniture, the game now automatically returns to the previous menu.
Confirming certain Furniture Set combinations now returns you directly to the appropriate main menu.
The Infernal Codex icon in the Encounter context menu now changes according to the Devil currently being used.
Added new sound effects for Skill Packs.
⚔️ Encounter and system improvements:
❗ Improved the victory conditions for DEFEND Encounters. You can now win before the turn limit expires if every enemy has been defeated and no additional reinforcements are scheduled to appear.
Refactored enemy AI behaviour to reduce potential slowdowns and freezes. This system is still being tested, and we'll continue monitoring its performance.
Added diagonal movement of the grid cursor for controller and keyboard.
👾 Bug fixes:
❗ Fixed a rare yet critical issue that could leave the screen black after loading and prevent players from continuing their save files.
Fixed AoE skills displaying incorrect damage in the combat preview.
Fixed information pop-ups covering Terrain tags.
Fixed a gamepad navigation issue in the Encounter Options menu during early scenes in which the Infernal Codex had not yet been unlocked.
Fixed the purple enemy range preview. It now highlights every tile the enemy can act upon.
Fixed imprecise or unexpected input behaviour when selecting an option at a Rest Node, including lost focus and accidental selections.
Fixed the same skill being able to appear multiple times in the Skill Pack obtained after completing the first node of an expedition.
Fixed the Primal Furniture Set summoning more Adventurers than described.
Fixed Bonfires being able to spawn on raised areas of Encounter maps.
Fixed gamepad users being unable to select the red "X" used to remove a skill from their build in the Skill Equip menu.
Fixed right-clicking during confirmation screens allowing players to move backwards through several UI screens at once.
Fixed players being able to navigate the Overworld interface while selecting an option at a Rest Node.
Fixed gamepad navigation becoming unavailable in the Merchant Node when the player did not have enough money to purchase a skill.
Fixed music sometimes failing to play after returning to the Title Screen.
Fixed several audio and music issues in the Training Grounds.
That's all for today!
This update contains many changes based directly on the feedback we've received from demo players. Please continue sharing your thoughts and reporting any issues you encounter through Steam Discussions or our Discord server. It helps us immensely as we continue improving Food Devils!
Thank you so much for supporting the development of the game.
Take care! 🍖

✨ Known Issues (Demo) and Development Roadmap for 2026 ✨

Hello Chefs! Thank you to everyone who has played the Food Devils demo and shared feedback so far. We're happy to see that thousands of players have downloaded and played our game, and that many are enjoying its gameplay loop!
We're also aware of some issues that are souring the taste test for some players more than any Tomoilo acid ever could!
This update is here to let you know that we are indeed listening to feedback and doing our best to keep improving the game.
Scheduled Improvements
📝 Info Tooltips - Requiring repeated presses of the "I" key to inspect information is not ideal. While we can't make tooltips fully automatic on maps, because the cursor is already used for map camera navigation, we will still make the overall experience smoother and more customizable. Our main inspiration for this is Fire Emblem Three Houses / Engage, which also require button presses to show info, with nested tooltips similar to Baldur's Gate 3.
🎮 Menu access and keyboard controls - At the moment, you can access the main menu on a map by selecting an empty tile. We will make it so that it's also accessible with a specific key.
⏳ Hold inputs feel too slow - Some actions currently require holding to confirm your selection. We're reviewing these interactions so they feel faster and more natural.
🔍 Map zoom - We're also reviewing UI spacing, zoom behavior, and how much visual information is shown at once. We are investigating whether it's possible to add 2 zoom levels to the current camera to give players more options.
📜 Tutorials need better timing and clarity - The game might feel confusing for people who aren't used to roguelites and/or Tactical RPGs. We will add more optional tutorial panels, review the initial tutorial missions so that they onboard the player better, and improve UI clarity for some basic info such as Movement points. We are also improving the tutorial flow so important systems are introduced before they become confusing.
📊 Difficulty Settings - These probably won't be available until Early Access, but we're also working on customizable options for your playthrough so that players can either focus on the story and characters or on deeper tactics without feeling alienated.
💬 Dialogue options - We're already planning to add the options to skip dialogue, view the Log, and make dialogue auto-advance based on voice lines once full voice-over is added in Early Access.
🚨 Enemy Phase speed - We will improve enemy behavior so that the Enemy Phase takes less time to "think" about optimal moves.
2026 Roadmap
We also wanted to share with you our tentative roadmap for 2026.

As you can see, there's a lot of content to look forward to in the next few months! In the meantime, please keep in mind that this is the early demo of an Early Access indie game. Our team is small, and optimizing the game while working on future content might take some time. I thank you for your patience and invite you to keep playing the current demo so that the game can shape up to be in its best state with future releases, thanks to your feedback.
➡️ Also keep in mind that the best and fastest way to send us feedback is via the in-game form, accessible by pressing F9 at any point in the game.
Thank you for following the development of Food Devils, and see you in the kitchen!
