Hello, I'm back with a new update, this time smaller than the last one, I had mostly focused on adding new bugs + fixing bugs introduced in the last version. I had also added "raw" yerba type, an in-game achievements system (it works more like things we can collect), there are new yerba/global events. I had also updated Steamworks and a few other things,
And if somone missed before, I had made video/blog post that summarizes earnings/other statistics from Yerba Mate Tycoon on Steam:

Update V1.4
Hello, I'm back with a new update, not big one as V1.3, but still a few new things have come. With the new update, a simple additive creation has arrived in the game, we can set the additive price, marketing budget, name icon, few stats, then we can sell the additive + use in your own products. This one adds a little of an extra content in the late game.
I had also added a "rating system", higher player company rating = higher additive sales + a few other things. I had also added "recruit all" button at the workers recruit panel + there is "research repeat" toggle in the research panel. This update, as always, brings new bugs, some bug fixes, and a few other things.

Update V1.3
Hello, no one was expecting it, but here is it, a new update. I got a burnout from gamedev, and by some random events I had decided to make a small update to YMT with bug fixes, but I ended developing something bigger.
Of course, as always, I had added new bugs, but the option to copy a few yerba settings had come into the game, we can also now sell your shares, use licenses in yerba, we can search for workers by worker type, there were tons of improvements to game losing, we can now sort searched workers by type, We can also customize game start with new various options.
PS3: are there plans for new updates? No idea, there will be some updates with bug fixes/localization updates, but not sure about updates with new features, maybe.

Update V1.23 (bug fixes)
Hello, as I have written before, I'm always here :-) The new update fixes a bug with some rare crashes, and bugs with choosing additives, and it fixes bug with loading the game, if you saved the game, but couldn't load it, it's now fixed. The saved file was always fine, that is why it was a bit hard to reproduce this issue because when you guys sent me saves, they were just loading fine for me, but I had found out what was broken. Oh, and I had added new bugs :-)
The bug with loading external .csv files (translations) is now fixed too. I had also updated translations and added a simple "fade" music system (on random music) + I had added tons of new fonts, which brings support to new various languages font characters (if someone wishes to translate the game to xx language). Thanks for all reports and ideas.

Update V1.2 (biggest update after leaving early access) :-}
Hello, Yerba Mate Tycoon has left early access a few months ago (3 Sep, 2021), from time to time I was developing "smaller" updates with bug fixes, translation updates, and a few Qol things, around ~1 week ago I had released some small update, and after it, I'm not sure why, I had started working on new things, and here it is. The biggest YMT update after leaving early access.
What has changed? As always full changelog is available on the game forum/bottom of this post. But in the summary, the additive search option has been added (name), now in the yerba creation panel, we got a "random" button for name generation, 2 new additives, 4 research, new companies have been added to the game. Except it, computer companies are now creating their yerba, very very simple system, it mostly adds +1% to the game depth :-} Oh, and we can now set "policy" for owned companies, which will give us bonus (bonus % depends on owned companies + their level). As before, we are starting the game with 20 companies, but during the game, more companies are joining the game. And yes, we can now rename yerba during creation. We can also ignore trade shows, set time for autosave, or disable it, we can ignore country notifications (stats changes). In products history, we can see a lot more stats + percent focus we had chosen. In the statistics panel we can see how many awards we have gained, some additives got new "appearance" and "taste" modifiers. Research button got number of available researches on it, the game is now a bit harder, and a lot more, I had also fixed tons of bugs + added tons of new one :-}
Why did I had done this update? I got no idea, but here is it, have fun :-}
