Espresso Tycoon News

Dear Coffee Lovers,

We know you've been waiting for this... ːsteamhappyː

We are adding the possibility to draw your own latte art in the Coffee Editor!

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

[h3]How can I draw my latte art?[/h3]

It's very simple. In our Coffee Editor, you need to go to 'Latte Art' step (remember that you need to have the Steamed Milk in your coffee recipe and milk frother in your coffee machine ːsteamhappyː). We have a special button that lets you start drawing!



You can change the brush size and the liquid fade.


You can draw some abstractions, but you can also try to draw something specific (although this may take several attempts - you know this if you've tried to draw something at least once on liquid ːsteamhappyː).



If you take a closer look, you will notice that the customers will have your latte art on their coffees too!



We also thought to ourselves, "What if we could add memes or photos on latte art?" And guess what? We did it!


[h3]On the day of the game's release on our Discord, we will show you how to add your own photos to the latte art. Don't miss out - join now! [/h3]

And that's not the end of the improvements to our Coffee Editor! We will reveal more details soon...

In the meantime, let us know what you think of our latte art ːsteamhappyː

Dear Coffee Lovers,

It's time to present our second location...

[h3]Welcome to NEW YORK![/h3]



To create a cafe in New York we were inspired by the most popular ones... 😉





[h3]Decorating in New York[/h3]

Decorating is one of the important parts of the gameplay of Espresso Tycoon.

Here we have a brand new café layout, which we haven't shared with you before. We also have a place where you can put your guitar and a guitar amplifier. It's just as if someone were to sing there, about a cat for example... 😉





But we also focused on the whole neighborhood of our coffee shop.

Can you imagine New York without fire escapes? Neither can we.


And cabs, of course!



And nightlife, a city full of lights, of course. We're in New York - so we have to add a bridge, too!


As you can see, we're focusing on a lot of things here. We want you to feel what it's like to be in New York, drink coffee with friends, exploring the city 😉

P.S. During the release of the full version of the game we will also have a little surprise for those who are on our Discord channel - join us! 😉 https://discord.com/invite/D8ht5td

Dear Coffee Lovers,

[h3]We are pleased to announce the winners of our contest![/h3]



Although we initially planned to select only three pictures of your adorable pets, we received an overwhelming number of submissions that we couldn't resist featuring more!

[h3]You can now see 10 fantastic pets among dozens of submitted by our players and see how they look like in one of the cafes in our game.[/h3]


As previously mentioned, we will be using these pictures as paintings in our Espresso Tycoon. They will be available in the sandbox mode that we are currently developing. ːsteamhappyː



We would like to provide some additional information about the sandbox/freeplay mode. You will have the ability to set various parameters such as the initial money, rating, employees, coffee shop level, and much more. If you unlock a location in the campaign mode, you can select it for your coffee shop in the sandbox mode, too.

However, if you join our Discord channel, we will share a cheat code that unlocks all of the locations from the start of the game. But let's keep that a secret, okay? Check out our Discord channel here: https://discord.com/invite/D8ht5td.

Once again, thank you for your participation and all of the submissions!

[h3]Don't forget to add Espresso Tycoon to your Wishlist ːsteamhappyː[/h3]

Dear Coffee Lovers,

As we mentioned before, we're going to present you all of the locations that we're going to add to our Espresso Tycoon.

[h3]Let's start with Cape Town![/h3]



You start your coffee journey here. And you already know that location from our demo (which is still available!).

You're supposed to learn some basics from the coffee business while running the coffee truck.

Creating that location was also a great journey for us ːsteamhappyː

We started with a truck:


Now you can customize it - change the color, the logo, and the font of the name of your brand.


We wanted our park in Cape Town to be a nice and cozy place to relax.



But it took us a lot of work to get to that effect.

It wasn't only about adding the truck to the park - it was still a bit empty. It needed also a lot of work with the proper lighting or the customers’ path.

(Cape Town - WIP)

[h3]Decorating in Cape Town[/h3]
Decorating is one of the important parts of the gameplay of Espresso Tycoon. We don't have any buildings in Cape Town but you can use a lot of outdoor decoration items to make that place interesting and beautiful.

We have a list with the outdoor decoration items like:

• pallets
  
• sun loungers
  
• new lamps
  
• new plants
  
• and some more!
  

[h3]Meet your first customers[/h3]

In the first mission you meet the first three social groups - Students, Hipsters, and Casuals. Each has different preferences. You're going to meet some more social groups in the next missions.


We also have a lot of animals here (we're in the park, right?)!

We have dogs (and you can buy some dog bowls for them!), cats, ducks, flamingos, swans, and... pigeons ːsteamhappyː



Once you complete the first mission in Cape Town you will be able to move to the next one in New York.

Also - the park in Cape Town will be available in sandbox mode, of course.
