Hello future Saloon owners!
We have some thrilling news to share: the first chapter of Saloon Simulator is coming soon! Let’s dive into the exciting updates and improvements we’ve made over the past two months.
Bug Fixes and Optimization
In preparation for the Prologue release, our team has been laser-focused on squashing bugs and optimizing performance. One of our developers, Kuba, shared a particularly pesky issue he dubbed the "Schrödinger's Piano Stool Problem." This stool, intended for our saloon's future musician, was temporarily removed from the game. However, the customization function still tried to find skins for this non-existent stool, causing crashes whenever we attempted to replace furniture or decor. Thanks to our diligent testers, we quickly identified the bug, but tracking down its cause was a real challenge.
Localization
We're committed to making Saloon Simulator accessible to players worldwide. The full version of the game will be available in English, German, French, Turkish, Italian, Korean, Polish, Japanese, Spanish, and Russian. We're currently testing these translations. Although the Prologue will feature machine translations for now, this is to ensure our interface handles different alphabets smoothly.
Achievements Galore
We love achievements, and we know you do too! Our team brainstormed 18 exciting new achievements, and our talented artist, Jagoda, created beautiful icons for them. Our programming team has successfully implemented these into the Prologue, adding another layer of fun and challenge to your gameplay.
All Aboard the Train
The train is the only civilized way to reach Blueberry. In the demo, you heard it bring Sheriff Custer to town, but its visual model wasn’t ready yet. We’re currently working on a fully functional train for the Prologue, complete with two new mechanics that we’ll reveal in future devlogs.
Full Voice Over for All Characters
We’re thrilled to announce that all characters in Saloon Simulator will have full voice-over! Our game places a strong emphasis on narrative, with characters who have their own goals, motivations, secrets, and problems for you to help (or hinder). To help you connect more deeply with our NPCs, we've been working on fully voicing their dialogue over the past few months.
Join Our Discord Community
We warmly invite you to join our Discord community, where we can chat, share ideas, and hear your suggestions. We’re eager to hear your thoughts and feedback, which will help us make Saloon Simulator even better.
We encourage you to add Saloon Simulator and Saloon Simulator Prologue to your wishlist, ensuring you won't miss out on any updates or the game's release.
Stay tuned for more updates, and until next time
Best regards,
