Summary of Playtest & Next Update


Hi,

We've gathered your amazing feedback and have been hard at work addressing most of it. Thank you for your participation and your help! :steamthumbsup:



This Friday will be the last day of our first playtest session.



The updates made following player feedback:


- Clients now have multiple clothing designs, hairstyles, glasses, hats, beards, and more.


- Clients will less frequently keep their mouths wide open and will return to a neutral expression more quickly.


- Client eyes and lips change more often.


- The game now pauses when the menu is displayed.


- A trash can has been added under the Slush machine.


- Added missing mapping context (key displays) at Checkout.


- Changed the price of Old movies: now $3 instead of $4. Regular one stays at $4.


- Decorations, machines, shelves and movie count now affect how many clients visit the store and how often.


- Greatly reduced the chance of clients walking in front of someone already at checkout.


- Greatly reduced the chance of clients walking behind your counter.


- More text variations and grammar fixes.


- Improvements to the Slush machine.


- Adjustment for audio volume


- Multiple fixes to the tutorial.



Coming up next


- A shady VHS dealer who runs a blackmarket stand in a backalley next to the store.


- Continued work on weather, events, and seasons.


- And, as your most requested feature: Employees!



When is the update coming?


We're working on the official demo for the game. While we don't have a set release date yet, our goal is to have it ready before the Holidays. The demo will include everything from the playtest + a special Fall Event, the Back Alley, and the Dealer. If time allows, we'll also add the late-game systems.
