Greetings, fellow Cafe Regulars.
Happy second year anniversary to Coffee Talk, the game we all know and love!
Especially to you all Cafe Regulars who've been with us, we are truly thankful for your support. We've been through a lot together, lots of great memories, and we feel like we could connect with you all through Coffee Talk.
After two years, there are many things that we have achieved together. Let's take a look, shall we?
Coffee Talk finally open for business in 2020...
Coffee talk was released two years ago, exactly on January 29 2020. It's such a big day for us where we released Coffee Talk simultaneously on different PC platforms and consoles! The game was well-received by many players around the world. A few months after, we announced the Coffee Talk Collector's Edition with the help from our friends at Strictly Limited Games and Chorus Worldwide.
Coffee Talk collector's edition and all the goodies!
There are lots of players who love the music of Coffee Talk, thus we decided to release the LP record of Andrew Jeremy's Coffee Talk greatest hits back in October 2020, in collaboration with Black Screen Records.. Everyone just loves vibing to Lo-Fi Hip Hop soundtrack while relaxing or just doing stuff, don't you think? ;)
The vinyl came with the Matcha Green and Coffee Brown double combo!
A few months after the vinyl release, we announced the first official Coffee Talk merchandise and collectibles on Sanshee in December 2020. You were able to get it in a bundle if you want to collect everything on the list!
What a gorgeous bundle of collectibles~
Coffee Talk continued to strive even better in 2021!
During our first anniversary in January 2021, we added mod support to the game. It was a big milestone for us to support the dedicated players, where localization and voice over mod were implemented! This is a mod that really brings more opportunity to our community. They can took part in adding their own language support and custom voice overs so more people can enjoy Coffee Talk as well!
In the same month as the first anniversary of Coffee Talk, we were chosen as the finalist Outstanding Achievement for an Independent Game during the 24th D.I.C.E Award back in January 2021? It's a huuuge achievement for us to be recognized at such an grand event.
The Coffee Talk OST Vinyl we released back in 2020 got a repress in April 2021! Not only that, Black Screen Records also released another version of a beautiful 2xCD set, definitely a treat for those who don't have a turntable.
The 2xCD set contain 22 tracks and 2 bonus tracks!
In the SEA Game Awards Level Up KL 2021, we won the Grand Jury Award! If you didn't know, SEA Game Awards is one of the biggest game nomination event in Southeast Asia, and that's already a huge achievement for us as an indie game developer! We were just as amazed as everyone else when we watched the nomination back in November 2021!
The overwhelming support of the players for the past years pushed us even higher, and we finally did it! Coffee Talk Episode 2: Hibiscus & Butterfly were officially announced with a trailer back in September 2021 during the Indie Houses Direct. The new episode is considered as a standalone title that will be released on PC and consoles.

The announcement was kinda unexpected, but the community loves it!
Did you hear of the Freya plush Campaign few months ago? The campaign ended with a success and and 305 Freya plushies were sent across the world! A very huge thanks to Makeship for supporting the campaign back in October 2021.

Coffee Talk in 2022 and beyond.
Our journey is not over yet, there's still much to do! There are many exciting events and updates to be expected this year. Let's hope for the best and look forward to the next Episode of Coffee Talk! Once again, please take care of us this year as well~
On this second anniversary, we have another wonderful gift for you all!
