We are pleased to inform you that we have prepared for you a major update, as promised. In this patch a lot of work was done on the visual part of the game, new mechanics were added and many bugs were fixed! In the next update we plan to work on new features and additional tasks to perform, most likely it will be possible to reach the level of the restaurant above 10, getting new side jobs, deliver multiple boxes of products at a time and much more.
What has been added:
completely redesigned the environment, vegetation, lighting, reflections, the game looks noticeably better;
added the ability to expand the area of the restaurant;
added the ability to purchase and install a food truck, to sell go-dogs, burgers and other dishes, this will give new opportunities to earn money;
added new seasonal fittings(Christmas fittings);
added more than 50 new fittings and vegetation, now you can create your own garden where visitors can relax;
Thanks to your comments and ideas - a lot of small and large problems have been fixed, now the game runs more stable.
Survey results and plans for upcoming updates.
Thank you to everyone who took part in the survey, everyone who hasn't yet - SURVEY
We received a lot of interesting ideas and feedback about the game based on the survey results, all of them were reviewed and we have already selected some of them to implement in the next updates, the rest - we will consider for implementation in future patches.
Based on your responses we have chosen these tasks for the next patches:
Some polishing/fixing of bugs - we're doing deep tests almost every day and reading all feedback from players, so we'll fix these bugs and will polish some mechanics.
1-2 new tasks/levels of side jobs
New furniture and surfaces - we're going to add new furniture and surfaces to paint.
Some balancing in mechanics.
Food trucks zone near the cafe - you can buy and place food trucks to prepare and sell some fast-food. It will give you new possibilities to make more money, to expand your business, and expand territory around cafes.
Season and holiday updates - some of you want to decorate cafe with holiday furniture or surfaces, it doesn't matter if it is holiday now or not, so we're going to add some specific holiday furniture and other things.
Also, many voted for groups of visitors and families, we plan to add this feature to the game, but a little later, as this system is complicated and can affect the balance and create new bugs, but we are not discarding this option and think how to properly implement.
We plan to release the next patch within 2-4 weeks.
An important survey.
We want to conduct an important survey for the project, where you can choose the options that you would like to see in the game in the near future, as well as the opportunity to specify your own option or a suggestion.
In a while, we will publish the results of the survey and tell you about our plans for the future of Cafe Owner Simulator based on your answers.
