Espresso Tycoon News

Dear Coffee Lovers,

We have the next update ready! Thanks to you!
Your commitment is amazing ːsteamhappyː

But before we explain what's actually in this update, here's a brief instruction.

Sometimes you can have a problem with launching the game (or some parts of it) after the update. This issue could be related to Steam and not the game itself. If you encounter a problem like that, please check your local files here:



[h3]And now, let's get back to our update...[/h3]

[h3]1. We added the possibility to add your custom paintings in the Sandbox mode!
[/h3]


HOW TO ADD YOUR PICTURES?
You need to find the folder on your PC:

C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\LocalLow\DreamWay Games\Espresso Tycoon\GameState\CustomImages

YOURNAME - it's a placeholder here, there should be your name on your PC ːsteamhappyː

There are 3 files:

• painting-1x1.png
  
• painting-9x16.png
  
• painting-16x9.png
  

You need to add pictures there with EXACTLY the same name.

And you can choose different picture frames (and different colors, too).


These are some drawings made by children from our DreamWay Games family ːsteamhappyː

[h3]2. We added the possibility to add your custom logo in the Brand Editor!
[/h3]


HOW TO ADD YOUR LOGO?
You need to go to the same folder that was mentioned before:

C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\LocalLow\DreamWay Games\Espresso Tycoon\GameState\CustomImages

YOURNAME - it's a placeholder here, there should be your name on your PC ːsteamhappyː

There are 3 files:

• brand-1.png
  
• brand-2.png
  
• brand-3.png
  

You need to add pictures there with EXACTLY the same name. They will look best when they are white (because the colors will not look the same as in your picture - quite like the pictures in our Latte Arts).



[h3]3. We added new toppings and ingredients in the Sandbox mode:
[/h3]

• Dragon Fruit
  
• Mango Syrup
  

[h3]4. We added new deco items to the Sandbox mode (and they will even let you make an artificial beach in your cafe):[/h3]

Tables and Chairs:

• Beach Seat
  
• Beach Sofa
  
• Beach Umbrella Table
  
• Beach Square Table
  
• Beach Compact Table
  

Floors and Walls:

• Floor - Tropical Rug
  
• Floor - Fake Beach
  
• Wall - Tropical
  

Other Deco Items:

• Beach Umbrella
  

Interesting fact - the couch that we added is the first one that you can decorate too!




[h3]5. We added the Ukrainian language![/h3]
We recently did a vote on which language we should add - Ukrainian got the most votes, so we are adding it now ːsteamhappyː



Many, many thanks to those who helped us test this update!

Remember to change your version of the game for yourself on Steam:


It would be good to restart Steam, too - to be sure you have the newest version of the game ːsteamhappyː

[h3]We wouldn't be here without you![/h3]

Dear Coffee Lovers,

[h3]We're preparing a big update for you!
[/h3]

And it's coming soon!
But as always, we want to be sure that it is well-prepared and will not introduce new bugs.

We also know that you like testing with us - so let's do that again! ːsteamhappyː

You can already test our new improvements on a separate branch on Steam. You must have purchased the game first in order to switch to the testing branch ːsteamhappyː

Let us remind you how you can do that.

To access the branch on Steam, follow these steps:
1. Open the Properties of Espresso Tycoon in your Steam Library.


2. Enter your password there. You can see it on the screenshot (if you already typed the password there in the previous beta tests, just switch the branch).


3. Choose the proper branch


And that's it!

Here's what we've done!
