With this update, we introduce cats into the game; they are mainly there to help build the game's atmosphere. For the retail release, you will be able to buy cat beds so cats can hang out in your cafe.
Thank you to everyone who continues to provide us with feedback! We are looking forward to everyone being able to enjoy the full release in July and we will continue to try and improve the game based on the feedback we have received.
Additions / Major Changes
Introduced cats into the game. From a demo perspective, you will now see them walking around the world, sleeping, napping, and they should also be pettable. With the full version, you will be able to place cat beds down in your cafe, and they will then sleep and wander around your cafe.
It is now possible to skip the first tutorial sequence that you run into. Useful for players who already have an idea of how the game plays and don't want to run through the whole tutorial sequence again.
Significantly reworked the color tinting system. You should find that your colors come through much clearer and don't get instantly lost in the material's original color. This is particularly noticeable on dark materials.
Fixes / Minor Improvements
Improve order refusal messages so they don't just state "no cups" all the time. Notifications should hopefully be significantly clearer.
Fix a soft lock that could occur during the tutorial if you reopened the computer before the tool mode steps fire off. There is now a guard in place to prevent this from occurring, but from now on, we will defer these tutorial steps until the tablet is closed.
Fixed an issue where input was still accepted by the game despite the Steam Overlay being opened.
The game will now automatically pause if your controller happens to get disconnected during gameplay.
