A while back I posted a quick update blog where I announced a big update. In this blog I want to reveal a bit more about this exciting new update.
We finally decided on a release date. The new update will be released on the 3rd of march.
Content overview
We will reveal all the details of the added content in the devblog that will be released on the 3th of march. But here is a rough overview of all the content you can expect. I think that this update will bring TasteMaker a lot closer to the vision that I originally had for the game.
Casino games
6 more casino games will be added to the game, all fully animated. This should enable you to create complete casinos.
Lounge
We added 4 furniture items that should enable you to build a lounge area to the game.
Cocktails
We added 3 cocktails to the game, along with 2 new ingredients and 2 new kitchen items to make the cocktails.
Staff
Currently, You can only hire 1 staff type. In the new update, you can hire a waiter, chef, dealer and cat.
More
The update also includes a bunch quality of life and miscellaneous features.
Building options
We also added some more options to build and customize your restaurant. You can currently only build 2 floors. In the new update this will be expanded, we are currently experimenting with how many floors would be optimal.
Additionally, new items, like pillars, dividers, decoration items and floor textures will be added.
Music and sound effects
The game never contained a lot of music or sound effects. This update will improve this by adding background music and by giving you the ability to build your own band. The sound effects in the game are also improved.
Scenario
We are making a new scenario that will be the biggest scenario in the game. This scenario will also be part of the update.
Gameplay
Besides adding new content, I also tried to make the game more fun. I did this by rebalancing the game, and changing how things work behind the scenes. Whether I succeed is subjective, but I definitely think that this update is a step in the right direction.
Updated trailer
The old trailer was starting to get a bit dated so we made a new trailer. This trailer also contrains some of the content.
