Potion Tycoon’s first patch is live now!

Greetings, potion magnates!

It’s been just a few days since we embarked on our new journey into the magical land of Early Access, together with you! Thanks to everyone who decided to join us on this trip - your feedback has been amazing so far and kept us both busy and thrilled beyond description!

Your input has already proved invaluable and helped us pinpoint and mend a bunch of problems which made the beginning of our ride a little bumpy for many of you. We are sorry for the caused inconvenience and press on to roll out the first hotfix as a remedy to the most glaring issues reported after the game’s launch. Namely, these include:

  • Crashes - we already tackled some of them but we are still not done yet. It helps us a lot if you can provide steps to reproduce those crashes that you might still have
  • Localisation issues in various languages


Check out the full changelog appended below if you want to see all the changes brought by the hotfix.

Meanwhile, we’ll keep on working hard to improve the game in every possible way, rectifying any newly discovered issues, improving existing features, polishing out various game elements and, of course, adding more varied content to the game. This patch is just the first tiny step on the long road lying ahead of us, and we hope that you will continue to help us make progress by readily sharing your findings and insights about different aspects of Potion Tycoon as we go. So let’s move on!

Bewitchingly yours,
Snowhound Games and Daedalic Entertainment


PATCH NOTES (english):

General
  • fixed some crashes, we are still on it and keep fixing


Localisation
  • Fixed the issue where set language for in-game text did not stay applied between game sessions.
  • The language setting can now only be changed in the Main menu.
  • Fixed missing title in the Fame tracker tooltips.
  • Fixed "Idle" not being localized in the worker hover-on tooltip.
  • Fixed "Not installed" text not showing correctly in Settings/DLC.
  • Fixed various missing/not updating strings in different languages.


UI/UX
  • Fixed an issue where pressing the “Ok” button in the Construction mode could result in building another copy of the currently selected item while hovering over a valid space.
  • Adjusted text layout in the shop cabinet pop-up for long potion names.
  • Improved intro video quality.


Construction
  • Fixed room type getting reset when a new room was resized after building content inside it.
  • Fixed an issue where pressing the rotate key could result in an error while not hovering over a guide sign in the Construction mode.
  • Construction: newly planned rooms can not be moved as long as they contain items that have been moved from other rooms. (We will revisit this in the future, but for now this prevents some nasty problems.)

Potion Tycoon is OUT NOW!

Good day to you, future magnates!

Today is indeed a big and special day for us all.

The day that heralds the launch of Potion Tycoon on Steam Early Access!

The day you can kick off your potion business for real at last.

The day we embark on a new exciting adventure, together with you.

So may it be a great day!



We lack proper words to describe how thrilled we are to finally get Potion Tycoon in your hands. Thanks to Early Access, none of us should wait for that any longer. But it also means a long road ahead of us, and we trust you to help us master it. Potion Tycoon already has a solid experience to offer, but to make it really shine we intend to improve and enhance it a great deal in the months to come. And while we have no shortage of ideas on how to turn our game into a gem at the final release, we believe that the truly right concepts are the ones that chime with our fans - with you! So we welcome you to join us in this ambitious and keen endeavor to bring Potion Tycoon to its full greatness and splendor! The path to the ultimate success may be thorny - just like it is inside the game - but the starting recipe should be simple enough. Just sharpen your business acumen, grab the game now and make sure that your voice is heard - share with us every last bit of your thoughts, ideas and suggestions once they cross your mind while you play Potion Tycoon.

Bewitchingly yours,
