Hello everyone!
We’ve got a new Spirittea update for you, which includes more bug fixes and small quality of life additions!
To kick things off and to tide you over until the next big update, you can grab Spirittea for 20% OFF right now!
Here's what you can expect to find in today's update:
Inventory stacking! We know you've all been waiting for this, and we're more than happy to deliver! Now, if you have more than one of the same item in your inventory, it'll stack instead of taking separate inventory slots! It'll stack in other places with storage too, like the chest in your house, fridges, etc.
And here's the full list of bug fixes and quality of life improvements:
- Fixed issues with Morinoba’s dialogue when playing on Steam Deck
- Added a sleeping animation for Fae
- The poobirds now have sound effects!
- The train carriage destroy event has been replaced with a clean up event
- The boiler can’t be accessed until specific parts of the tutorial, to avoid unintended behavior
- The invisible blocker during the bathhouse tutorial is now more prominent, to stop players from breaking the tutorial and accidentally leaving at the wrong time
- Added more clarification to the bathhouse upgrades UI when you pay for an upgrade. It will now be indicated the day the upgrade will be finished and will inform the player that Fae will finish the upgrade at the end of her work day
- The player can now run the bathhouse on the weekend, even when Fae has an upgrade scheduled, as she doesn’t work on the weekend
- Fixed a crash relating to bath monkeys not being able to find a spot in the outdoor baths
- Fixed a bug where Lord Spirit text would cause time to freeze when moving between rooms
- Quests on the board and notebook will now complete regardless of whether you’ve spoken to the relevant NPC to tie up the quest
- Fixed a bug where the selling shrine would display -1 as a price
What's next for Spirittea?
We have some big plans for Spirittea in 2024, so we thought we'd give you a sneak peek of what's to come in the next big update!
Seasonal factors! The changing in seasons is a big part of Spirittea, and we were thinking on how we could make this even better and more immersive. So, we thought, why not make the change in seasons even more obvious?
Now, whenever you're working in the bathhouse, you'll see the environment interact with you even more, depending on the season! In winter, you'll find ice in the baths, in Fall you'll see leaves falling into the baths, and in Spring you'll see Algae growing in them! (We know, more things to clean, sorry!)
Actually, we thought you could use some help with the cleaning, so how about some bathhouse ducks to clean up the Algae? 🦆
A new NPC vendor! The town can never have enough shops and vendors, so we thought we'd add another! This truck will drive through town occasionally, so be sure to be on time when it arrives!
This vendor will sell a bunch of new in-game items, including heaters for the bathhouse to keep your spirits warm during the winter, duck nests so you have ducks in your bathhouse, and more!
Improved character portraits! The characters in Spirittea are a big part of the game, especially considering how much time you spend with them, so we wanted to give them even more life and personality!
We know how much you all connect with these characters, so to make them feel even more human, we revamped their portraits to make sure their personalities really shine through! Now, as you increase your friendships with them, you'll notice their character portraits change the better friends you become with them!
That's it for now! We hope that's enough teasers to tide you over until the next update! Thanks to your feedback and bug reports, Spirittea just gets better and better! We can't wait to give you more, we'll see you in the next update!
