Update 10/22
We are happy to implement the most important feature of the game, the 'Tea Store' where you can showcase and sell your custom and unique teas to the Tea Connoisseurs of the world.
This feature will be a permanent part of the game. Though it will be unlocked at Level 3, we have made it accessible at Level 1 for this update only. To let you try this feature.
So, go ahead and fill your store with your own unique creations. Also, don't forget to share your masterpieces with the community.
Various other improvements include:
1. Zoom on the map via mouse scroll.
2. Bug fixes.
Tutorial Bug Hotfix
Alongside other small fixes.
Update 9/22
We are happy to implement more features in this update.
1. The change of seasons now affects the color palette of the entire level. In addition to that, the fog and cloud cover and rain fx are also added.
2. We are introducing a bunch of BRAND NEW tea processing equipment which can be helpful in preparing more variations of tea.
a) Hand rolling - This manual process is extremely helpful for subtly damaging your tea and processing it again for more flavors. Make sure you keep an eye on the chemical charts for better understanding.
b) Hand Tossing - This is even subtler than hand rolling. This tradition of bruising tea is quite common among oolong producers. This method is for further tweaking your tea flavors.
c) Bruising Machine - This tumbling machine is predominant in oolong factories. They are trying to mimic hand shaking or tossing via a machine. But can it really replace manual bruising? What do you think?
d) Sha Qing Wok - This is the staple equipment for Chinese producers. It's still an irreplaceable part of tea production, especially Puerh. A hard labor-intensive process, but with its benefits.
e) Automated Sha Qing Machine - This is the automated version of sha qing wok. Fast, efficient. But, will it give the same quality as manual sha qing? You have to experiment with it to find out.
f) Steaming Machine - This is also a very popular option. Especially among Japanese and Indian green tea producers. But you have to tweak your pipeline a bit to accommodate this.
g) Ball Rolling Machine - This is popular among Oolong producers. Especially who like to preserve the volatiles.
h) Rack Drying Machine - No fuss, efficient and effective. But they give a slightly different result than the traditional roasting machine.
i) Charcoal Roasting - This is quite a specialty tea equipment. We are really unsure about its effectiveness apart from the nuances it brings in flavors. We tried our best to implement it. Let us know the results.
There are also numerous small improvements and bug fixes apart from these. But we don't want to bore you with that. Go ahead and play with these new toys and let us know what you think.
Cheers
Update 8/22
- A rating system is added for calculating the average quality of the production.
- When you try to put too many kgs of tea into a machine and get the error message, the slider at the correct amount of kgs the machine can take for you to approve or cancel the transfer.
- At the moment you can give an order more kgs of tea than it asked for, the maximum amount of tea you can deliver is the same as the amount it requested.
- Financial Info, Financial report showing the breakdown of income and costs and labor cost.
All these and numerous bug fixes.
Furthermore,
We'd like to share with you, a preview of the graphics upgrade, that's going to be implemented in the upcoming versions
