Hello everyone! Our massive update that will take your gaming experience to a whole new level is now live. From the UI to gameplay mechanics, graphics to system infrastructure, many new features await you in this patch.
Here is what has been added to the game with this update:
📱 New Tablet System and UI
The Main User Interface (UI) has been completely redesigned.
Tablet Interface Added! You can now open your tablet by pressing the Tab key and manage your store much more easily.
Real-Time Price Updating: You can now instantly change the prices of the products on your shelves directly from your tablet.
Store Name Changing: You can update your store's name whenever you want using the tablet menu.
The Order, License, Credit, and Furniture screens have been completely renewed for a more modern and user-friendly design.
⚙️ Gameplay, Mechanics, and Achievements
🏆 15 New Achievements Added: Achievements have been integrated so that you will earn 1 achievement on every "news day" in the game. Many more achievements will be added in future updates.
Systems Rewritten: The level, mission, and economy (money) systems have been completely redesigned and made much more balanced.
Customer Review System: Your customers can now review and rate your store! (This system will be further deepened in upcoming updates.)
Improved Customer AI: The issue of customers constantly saying "This is too expensive" to everything has been eliminated; they now react much more logically to your pricing.
News/Event System Buffed: The impact of news on the store has been increased. During news events, significantly more customers will visit your store, they will move faster, and they will be much more inclined to buy event products.
Added a falling down animation for thieves.
The groundwork for the upcoming Co-op mode has been developed and integrated into the game.
🎨 Graphics, Localization, and Fixes
Graphics and lighting quality have been significantly improved (Our visual enhancements will continue without slowing down).
All product names have been localized.
Fixed the bug that caused messages in different languages to mix up.
All known translation errors have been fixed. (If you spot any overlooked translation errors, please don't hesitate to report them!)
🤝 Community, Donation, and Developer Note
As a solo developer, I am trying to do my absolute best. If you encounter any bugs or issues in the game, please don't forget to report them to me via our Discord server or the Steam Discussions section. I stand behind the game to the very end, and we will bring it to the full release together!
In addition to this, there is an important matter I want to share with you: I will be donating a portion of the revenue earned from the game to the families of fallen soldiers. I will be receiving my first earnings from the game this month, and once I make the donation, I will share the details with you on our Discord server. This won't be limited to just this month; every month, we will continue to regularly donate a portion of our earnings to a community or foundation that we will choose together with you. Stay tuned for updates!
📅 Future Update Schedule
From now on, unless there is an unexpected setback, our development process will follow this schedule strictly:
🛠️ Every 5 days: Bug fixes
✨ Every 10 days: Adding a new mechanic or significantly improving existing mechanics.
