Hello once again, dear Pixelians! ːespressoː
This update took a bit longer than expected, but we’re very excited to bring you another update that is thoughtfully designed based on the valuable feedback from all of you!
In this release, we’re addressing a challenge that’s been affecting some of you and now we’re introducing a new feature that directly targets the issue. 👀
🧰 Minigame Settings
We’re excited to introduce a brand-new section in the Settings menu dedicated entirely to mini-game customization!
This feature gives you the ability to adjust each individual mini-game according to your personal preferences.
You now have full control over your mini-game experience!
With the new settings, you can choose to enable or disable any mini-game in the game, giving you the freedom to focus on the ones you enjoy most.
Additionally, you can adjust the difficulty level for each mini-game individually, allowing you to have control over your experience even more, whether you’re looking for a more relaxed experience or a tougher test of your skills.
🎯 How do 'Disabled Minigames' work?
When you choose to disable a mini-game, your Pixelian will take care of those activities on their own. The outcome will be determined entirely by your Pixelian’s relevant skill level for that specific task.
For simpler activities that don’t rely on any skill; like taking a bath, using the toilet, running on the treadmill, or lifting weights; your Pixelian will complete them automatically, without any input needed from you.
🎶 What about Concerts and Side Jobs?
As you know, certain activities; like Concerts and Side Jobs (those you receive through your mobile phone); involve performing on an instrument or creating a painting for a client.
If the mini-game required for one of these tasks is disabled, a pop-up will appear before you begin, asking if you’d like to simulate the mini-game instead.
This allows your Pixelian to handle those side jobs entirely on their own, with the outcome based solely on their relevant skill level.
The event will be simulated, and depending on how skilled your Pixelian is, you may either succeed or fail.
This setting is especially valuable for players with physical challenges that made it difficult to actively participate in mini-games, often leading to failure and reducing their overall enjoyment of the game.
We hope this new option removes that barrier and allows everyone to enjoy the experience more comfortably and fully.
💰 Jobs
For now, mini-games related to jobs are excluded from this feature, as we have separate plans for them.
We're considering allowing players to simulate their workdays, similar to this system, but likely only after reaching a certain level in that job.
Simulating a shift may come with drawbacks such as missing out on bonuses or performing slightly worse than usual. We plan to introduce these adjustments in future updates.
