Cakes and Cookies more content upcoming!
Hi Chefs!
Glad to see you enjoying Cakes and Cookies so much! Just like with the base game, we'll keep taking good care of the expansion. Thanks to your awesome feedback and many suggestions, we'll be looking for ways to further streamline the gameplay and make it even more fun.
Here are some of the updates planned for the nearest future:
June 18th - Sandbox mode
The Sandbox mode will be available on Thursday, because it still required a few adjustments. We know how much you guys liked this mode in the base game and there's no way we could've skipped that for Cakes and Cookies. In the meanwhile, make sure to check out the basic mode. The expansion provides much more chilled out experience - there are not orders awaiting and virtually no penalties. The daily hashtags are more of a suggestion but it's not required to follow them to sell cakes. Additionally, we've made sure that there's enough sources available right from the start so you can check out everything this DLC has to offer!
June 25th - more figurines
It seems you guys have fallen in love with all the fancy decorations and we'll be more than happy to deliver you more sets of beautiful figurines.
July 2nd - Chaos Tool
That's right! Very soon you'll be able to wreck your kitchen like never before. THIS FREE UPDATE AVAILABLE FOR EVERYONE WHO OWNS THE BASE GAME.
A quick recap of it's features:
Shooting ignited firecrackers. Initially we wanted it to shoot darts but firecrackers sound like more fun!💥🧨
Shooting beams that mess with the gravity of individual objects. Houston, we're about to have a problem!🛰️🌌👨🚀
Shooting beams that change the scale of objects. Ever wanted to spend some time in the kitchen with a human-sized banana?🔼🔽🍌
Shooting chosen objects. You pick an item you want to use as ammo and the Chaos Tool can shoot is as much as you want.🍅🥦🥕 🔫
A beam which swapps objects for other random objects. Because why not!🍎⚗️🥩
