Hello everyone,
We have just a little bit of news to share today.
First, I’d like to let everyone know that we will soon be uploading a build which will remove the Christmas theme for Shoppe keep. We hope you all had fun with the game over the holidays and hope that you continue to enjoy the game into 2016.
Secondly, we have finally resolved the Content ID system that was put in place by error. We have made our thoughts on this system well known and feel that they have no place in today’s gaming climate. We love youtubers and have a lot of respect for the players who make interesting content which also helps to spread news about our game. I’d like to thank Daniel Romeros, our musician for Shoppe Keep to help resolve this issue, it took many phone calls and emails but the content ID system has now been removed.
This means that anyone wishing to monetise from any videos of Shoppe keep can of course do so without being at risk of any copyright notices from now on.
Thirdly we will be continuing to work on Shoppe Keep as usual. I will aim to share some more news very soon, but for a quick tease; our artist has been working on the customers. They will soon have different types of hair, as well as a new lip system which will soon change in game so customers will be more alive than ever before.
Finally I’d like to address some thoughts from the community for the most recent update. We have read every every post and are very pleased that we have such an active and supportive community. The developer Arvydas would like to make just a brief announcement on some thoughts players have had regarding a free play mode.
“We will not be making a totally free mode as we feel that it contradicts the vision that we as developers have. We are sorry for those who do not enjoy this decision, but we will be trying to add more options that will allow players to customise their gaming experience to have some of its features unlock faster or far easier.”
We do feel that our weakest link is a decent tutorial, this is something that we will be aiming to rectify soon and hope that we can make the progression more satisfying than before for all players.
We hope you all have an awesome 2016 and you can bet that we’ll be working hard to refine improve and expand Shoppe Keep.
