Dev log #1 - Adding emotions to the characters

We are working hard right now to prepare a demo version. It’s going to be ready by the end of this year (2021).

[h2]Adding emotions to the characters in Espresso Tycoon![/h2]

One of the things that we are focusing on right now is adding emotions to all the characters. Well, you know – going to a coffee shop is not only a thing connected with drinking coffee. It’s the whole experience – that’s why people should have a lot of emotions on their faces – happiness, sadness, and so on.

We have already added emotions and reactions to some people in the trailer. As you can see, the barista is surprised when our influencer – Marion Coffeelard – is entering the coffee shop.

Also, the influencer has a lot of details – she’s smiling while she’s taking a selfie. We added even blinking (she has sunglasses, so maybe not everyone can notice that, but we keep on focusing on each detail).

For now, one of the things we are focusing on is adding these emotions to the customers.



The other thing is adding interactions to the customers. Of course, sometimes you can go alone to your favorite coffee shop, but we know that this is also a place where social life is something really important. And we want to present that in the game. That’s why our customers will be laughing, arguing, disagreeing – just like in normal life.



We will inform you about the progress! We will also announce the roadmap of our game soon.

Dive into a hardcore management system

[h2]What challenges await you in Espresso Tycoon?[/h2]

If you think running a coffee shop is a piece of cake, you are wrong. At least in the Espresso Tycoon game! Here, your decision-making comes from both small things, such as the pet rules for your coffee shop, and very large ones, such as opening hours. If you want to build a successful coffee business you will have to deal with all of them.



[h2]Let's start from the beginning[/h2]

Every businessman should set himself milestones towards which he strives. Espresso Tycoon is full of such milestones. For example - before you can start selling coffee and getting rich, you need to, obviously, get your café ready. What other tasks await you?

  • choosing a location for your first and each subsequent coffee shop
  • decorating and furnishing your premises
  • hiring, training, and taking care of the needs of different types of employees
  • creating your own logo using the brand editor
  • setting menus, prices and brewing your own coffee
  • setting opening hours and policies, which may be different for each of your cafés
  • taking care of the supply chain and ordering coffee grounds from all over the world
  • analyzing customer opinions, advertising, and cooperating with popular influencers
  • taking on challenges and missions that will help you earn some extra cash and fame
  • expansion of your own coffee empire


Sounds like a challenge, right? Don't worry - no one is born a perfect businessman. Explore the world of Espresso Tycoon step by step. Learn, observe, and make bold decisions to soon become a successful coffee shop owner!



[h2]Plan, decide, analyze and act![/h2]

Remember that every decision you make affects the world around your coffee shop. Your clients will be happy to share their opinion on social media, especially on the Beanstagram platform. Learn to listen to them!

In addition, numerous tools come to your aid, such as graphs summarizing your activities so far. However, let's face it - your observations and plans are the most important here. See for yourself how rich the Espresso Tycoon world is and how deep the management system it offers. Do you think you can handle it?
