Hello, interviewers! With summer vacation around the corner, we’re excited to announce that Thank You for Your Application will be exhibiting at BitSummit in Kyoto, Japan! From July 18th to 20th, you can find us at Kyoto Miyako Messe, booth 1F-D27. We look forward to seeing you there!
At the event, we’ll have a demo for you to try and free postcards for you to pick up! We warmly welcome everyone to come play, collect, and chat with us! If you’ve ever posted about Thank You for Your Application on social media — whether it’s a post, image, video, Steam review, or any other form of sharing — just show us a screenshot, and you’ll receive a random character badge! Thank you so much for your support!
Recently, we’ve made phased optimizations and content additions to the game, improving visual presentation and user experience based on your feedback. Please note: due to the large scope of this update, older save files may encounter compatibility issues. We recommend verifying the integrity of your game files after updating and creating a new save to continue playing. Here’s an overview of the latest update:
📁 A brand new hire and reject interaction experience
Hiring and rejecting are no longer done by simply clicking a button — instead, you now make your decision by dragging the resume into the corresponding folder. Once the resume is in the folder, you need to click the folder to confirm.
Before confirming, you can still retrieve the resume from the folder, preventing irreversible mistakes such as forgetting a thank letter or making a wrong judgment.
📅New date format options and subsidy mode added
To accommodate different players' reading habits, a new option to choose the date format has been added. You can now adjust how dates are displayed by going to "Settings" on the main menu.
Additionally, we received various feedback about game difficulty. To meet different players' needs, we’ve introduced a new subsidy mode. In this mode, interviewers receive an extra 30p daily allowance, making it ideal for players who want to focus on story exploration. By selecting this mode at the start of the game, you can ease bills and breakdown value pressures and enjoy the story more freely.
🤖New apartment concierge added
Pharos Apartments has introduced a new batch of A02 concierge robots, with one assigned to each unit. These robots will serve as residents' assistants, handling cleaning, package delivery and reception, data monitoring, and more.
Interviewers can talk to the apartment concierge to get information about their personal status. A02 will play an important role in your future life in Aeropolis — stay tuned!
Thank you to everyone who shared feedback and suggestions with us through surveys and our community. We will continue to share our development plans with you via development logs. For interviewers who couldn’t make it to BitSummit, don’t worry — we greatly value opportunities to connect in person, and we’ll announce more offline events in the future.
Feel free to try the demo anytime! If you'd like to discuss or share feedback on this update, join our official Discord channel to connect with us directly!
