Hello Chefs! It's the end of the month, and time to update you on our progress! We are nearing the final stages of development, focusing mainly on fixing various bugs, testing, and optimizing the overall experience. Additionally, the development team has confirmed that the game will officially launch in late July this year! Here is this month's progress report:
Control Optimization and Click Mode
We've added a "click" function to move and place ingredients in the game! Since the release of the Demo, players have reported that dragging operations can cause hand fatigue over long periods. Although reworking the system took some time, we now support click operations! Players will be able to switch cooking operation modes in the settings interface. This feature has also been updated in the Demo version!
Bug Fixes
The following issues have been fixed, and the Demo version has been updated accordingly:
- In drag mode, clicking on an empty container caused it to shift.
- Holding the fast-forward function caused the game to freeze in certain story segments, requiring the player to release and press again.
- Adjusted bubble messages so they no longer block the button to pick up the noodle strainer.
- Fixed translation errors in some Japanese dialogues.
- Corrected judgment errors in some story branches after serving dishes.
Game Optimization
Thanks to everyone who played the Demo and filled out the survey; we have received all your suggestions!
Here are some optimizations we've added:
- Added click operation mode for cooking (based on player suggestions, see above for details).
- The settings interface now allows you to review tutorial images.
- Added dates, chapter names, and immersive sound effects at the beginning of each chapter.
- You can now double-click to skip the fixed opening animation after the second chapter.
- Added broth and soy sauce residue to plates and bowls after the food is finished, as they were too clean before.
- When clicking, the cursor's chopsticks now pick up items.
- Some text has been bolded for easier reading.
- The sound effect for text appearance has been lowered to protect players' ears.
That's all for this month's update!
Thank you very much for your support, and we will continue to work hard!
Additionally, we plan to participate in the Steam Next Fest in June!
There will be live streaming events, and we welcome everyone to join us!
