Greetings shopkeepers!
It's time to bring out the hidden fashionista in you, and get ready for character customization! With the latest Winkeltje: the Little Shop update you get to modify your look with 6 different outfits and a bunch of new colour combinations.
Update Highlights
Character Customization
It's very exciting to bring more character customization options to Winkeltje: the Little Shop. This feature evolved from initially having no options, to picking between two characters, and with today's update you get the ability to tweak even more facets of your shopkeeper's appearance. Customize things like your shopkeeper's type, hair, outfit, boots, and color options for each. From the start you get some options but more exciting looks and colors can be unlocked by progressing in the game.
Achievements
It's been a long time in the making, but the first batch of achievements are finally here. We're starting out with 12. For some of those achievements, having an old save file where you met the requirements of the achievement may allow it to instantly complete as you load up the game. We will be adding more over time, so if you have ideas for achievements, don't hesitate to let us know!
