Hello everyone!
Update 0.0.7 is officially live! In this patch, we have focused heavily on community feedback, bringing major performance optimizations, a complete overhaul of the user interface, and brand-new animations and sound effects to make your management experience smoother and more immersive.
Check out the full list of changes below:
🛠️ Bug Fixes & Optimization
Performance Boost: Fixed general game lag and optimized the stuttering that occurred when collecting trash.
Faster Loading: Overall loading times have been significantly reduced.
Smart Loading System: The loading screen now accurately reflects your save state. New saves will load instantly, while older, larger saves will process safely with a slight, intended delay.
Skybox Fix: Resolved the visual issues affecting the game's skybox.
Stuck NPCs: Fixed an issue where NPCs would occasionally get stuck in place indefinitely.
Audio Control: Fixed a bug where wind sound effects ignored your volume slider settings.
📺 UI & Visual Improvements
UI Overhaul: Fully redesigned the main User Interface for a cleaner, more modern look.
Pause Menu: Redesigned the pause menu for better navigation and aesthetics.
Crosshair: Reduced the crosshair size for a less intrusive screen presence.
➕ New Features & Additions
New Cashier Animations: Cashiers now have dedicated animations for scanning items and processing payments.
Furniture Interaction: You can now move furniture easily! Just Press X to reposition.
Furniture Audio & FX: Added brand-new sound effects for selling, moving, and building furniture, alongside a new construction animation.
Stocking Audio: Added satisfying new sound effects when placing products onto or removing them from shelves.
Advanced Audio Sliders: Added two new audio options in the settings:
Master Volume: Control all game audio at once.
Weather Volume: Fully mute outdoor weather sounds while keeping your satisfying store and money sounds intact.
