New location in progress - UNDERWATER! Can YOU see the SHARK?

Dear Coffee Lovers,

We are proud to present to you our new location - UNDERWATER (Sydney).



As you know, in our demo, we have just one location for the coffee shop. As you might have seen in our roadmap - in the full version of Espresso Tycoon, we're going to have several different locations.

And that one - UNDERWATER - will be used in the Prologue! That's YOUR decision ːsteamhappyː
We wanted you to choose one of the six proposed locations and Underwater got most of your votes.

And here it is!

Working on such a location is not easy. We don’t have… sky here! So it takes a lot of work (and time) to adjust proper lightning.

You can see the progress here:

[h3]AFTER[/h3]

[h3]BEFORE[/h3]

[h3]AFTER[/h3]


[h3]SEA CREATURES[/h3]

Of course, such a location requires unique and specific surroundings. Your customers will admire sharks, jellyfish, octopus, and sunken ships…The supplies will be delivered by submarines! (Drones wouldn’t fly here, right?)



[h3]NEW FEATURES
[/h3]
According to our roadmap and your requests - we’re going to add new features. These are:
  • a possibility to have more than one barista working at the same time
  • skipping time to the next day
  • new decoration items
  • a possibility of selling snacks
  • toppings in the coffee editor
  • profit and loss table
  • different coffee machines
  • a possibility to save and load the game state
  • a brand new main menu screen



Here’s our trailer:

[h3]What's more - the Prologue will be released THIS OCTOBER! ːsteamhappyː[/h3]

[h3]How many sharks can you see in that announcement?[/h3]

Ordering supplies - Have you seen the DRONE?

Dear Coffee Lovers,

You must keep track of the stock you have in your coffee shop. Order coffee beans, milk, and syrups, and choose their quality and price.

Click on the supplies icon in the upper right corner to open the supplies window.
[h3]
Choosing the products
[/h3]
Choose the bookmark with the product category you need to order. Check their quality, unit capacity, and price.


[h3]Ordering supplies[/h3]
Click the "Order" button to see the order details. Choose the number of units and the time of delivery. Note that an instant delivery is quick but expensive.


[h3]Refilling the supplies[/h3]
You will get notified if your supplies run out of stock. Click on the notification to open the supplies window and order new ones. Try to avoid missing supplies not to get negative reviews.


[h3]Checking needed supplies[/h3]
Open the menu window and move the cursor to a coffee recipe to check what supplies you need. You’ll also see other requirements for preparing a given coffee.


[h3]Changing the priorities[/h3]
If you have more than one ingredient in the same group (and they differ in quality) you can change the priorities of using them.


[h3]Receiving the order[/h3]
Your supplies will arrive at your coffee shop by drone delivery. You will see them arriving with the package containing your order.


[h3]Collecting the supplies[/h3]
Click on the packages to collect them. Once you do it they will get added to your supplies.


Don't forget to check the budget! Think a few steps ahead and organize your supplies' delivery wisely ːsteamhappyː
