Hey Gamers
Book Bound 1.1 Mega Patch is out now
It's been an amazing couple of weeks since launch. Thank you so much for playing Book Bound until now. I have been reading all your feedback and took on as much as possible to shape Book Bound into a great game. So here we are.
This update contains lots of changes that have been requested and I think they are pretty cool.
- New cast of characters that you can chat with. Each with its own unique backstory and dialogue.
- Benches are now reserved for the new cast. You will find characters of the new cast on benches.
- Added a new Upgrades Menu which allows you to unlock a bunch of things (mostly things further on this list)
- Added shop expansions (left and right; total size of the shop can be 3x the original now)
- Added custom wall segments to create your own room (unlocks with the first shop expansion)
- Added Multi-save support allows you to start new bookshops without losing the old ones
- Added Self-checkout item (unlocked via upgrades menu); Customers will automatically pay and leave. You can still checkout customers by standing behind the cash register
- Added Voomba station (unlocked via upgrades menu); Spawns a little robot that cleans the shop for you (Voomba station contains more upgrades)
- Added Direction sign (unlocked via upgrades menu); When customers look for books and they stand near a sign, they will find the book automatically (no need to help)
- Added Storage (unlocked via upgrades menu); Lets you store lots of books (12 in total)
- Added a new Build menu filter for "functional" items that have abilities beyond decoration
- Added character name creation when starting a new shop
- Balanced the amount of rubbish generated
- Improved NPC behaviours (more adjustments to make sure they don't get stuck)
- Removed NPC conversation when the shop is closed (they didn’t add anything to the game)
- Removed zombie NPC’s (for now)
- Dialogue progression with Stefan has been reset so see the new version
The cast:

I hope you will enjoy this update.
Thanks
