[p]Hi, everyone.[/p][p][/p][p]Today I have to spend a lot of time fixing a single bug, so I couldn't get to the others as much. I'm aware of all of the issues, and I will hopefully make more progress fixing them tomorrow. Here is a summary of this patch:[/p][p][/p][p]Task Adjustment:
Many players reported that the Rainy Day task could not be completed due to a lack of dirty tables. This task has now been adjusted to only appear on days when it can actually be completed.[/p][p][/p][p]Bug Fixes:[/p]

• [p]Tutorial Controller Mapping: Fixed an issue where, during the tutorial, controller users would sometimes see PC key prompts instead. This could cause players to get stuck if they didn’t have access to a keyboard. The game now detects the next input and updates the control mapping accordingly. However, I'm still looking into why control mapping keep swapping.[/p]
• [p]Magic Orb Mode Camera: Fixed incorrect camera configuration in Magic Orb mode that caused erratic camera movements.[/p]
• [p]Matilda's Salary: Players should no longer be able to change Matilda’s salary, as she works for free. She will now be satisfied just like Luka.[/p]

[p]Hi everyone,[/p][p][/p][p]Today was a bit of a slower day for me—I only managed to fix a few urgent issues. That said, I spent time studying how other games handle interactions and came up with a few ideas to improve our system. I’ll start implementing those improvements tomorrow.[/p][p][/p][p]Controller use and Steam Deck play are still not recommended at this time.[/p][p][/p][p]Here are the changes included in today’s patch:[/p][p][/p]

• [p]Added support for controlling the camera with the right joystick on controllers.[/p]
• [p]Disabled position damping for the camera to make movement feel more responsive.[/p]
• [p]Bug Fix: Samuel should no longer appear at the market stall, and the jeweler's store should now correctly sell relevant decorations.[/p]
• [p]Bug Fix: Items behind the bar are now marked as transparent to prevent them from obstructing the view during bartending.[/p]

[p][/p][p]Thank you again for your patience and support![/p]

[p]Hi everyone,[/p][p]Thank you so much for your interest in the game and for sharing your reviews and feedback. I’ve read every single one, and I’m actively working to polish and improve the experience.[/p][p]First, I want to apologize for the current state of the controls. I underestimated the importance of user experience, and I’m committed to addressing these issues in the coming days.[/p][p]In this patch, we’ve completely overhauled the camera system. Previously, the camera was unstable, not smooth, and could cause motion sickness. With this update, we hope those concerns are resolved. If you still feel uncomfortable with the camera, please don’t hesitate to let us know![/p][p]Tomorrow, I’ll be focusing on improving responsiveness—especially when it comes to interacting with items, which currently feels unresponsive to many players.[/p][p]I’ll also begin work on full controller support, so you’ll soon be able to enjoy the game on gamepads and the Steam Deck.[/p][p]Thank you again for your patience and support—it truly means a lot![/p][p]This patch also includes a few small bug fixes:[/p]

• [p]Bug Fix: Players were unable to collect furniture if the room assignment was incorrect. This restriction has been removed.[/p]
• [p]Bug Fix: Corrected the loan contract task title.[/p]
• [p]Bug Fix: Resolved an issue where players couldn’t submit loan payments.[/p]
• [p]Bug Fix: Fixed the repair sphere task.[/p]
• [p]Chinese language now uses a unified font.[/p]

[p]Hello magic innkeepers, 💕[/p][p][/p][p]The day is finally here, Magic Inn is officially out in Early Access! We’ve been working on this magical journey for the past 4 years, and we’re beyond excited to finally share it with you.[/p][p][/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p][/p][p]We apologize that Magic Inn has been delayed two times. We want to take a moment to express our appreciation to everyone who’s been with us patiently. We’re a small team of three people, and this is our very first game. Looking back, we were probably too ambitious to accurately assess our capability.[/p][p][/p][p]To be honest, there're still features we don't have time to add, improve, and polish. But we believe the new journey has just begun and we’ll continue developing the game toward the vision we had when we first started.[/p][p] [/p][h3]Controller Support[/h3][p]Controller support is nearly finished. We just need 2–3 more days for final testing to ensure everything runs smoothly.[/p][p][/p][h3]Discord[/h3][p]We have an amazing community where players exchange ideas, report bugs, and even brainstorm with us devs! This community-driven development makes the process endlessly fun and fulfilling. We would like to invite you to be one of our family members too.[/p][p]Magic Inn Discord [/p][p][/p][h3]Bugs Report and Gameplay FAQ Tips[/h3][p]Scroll down please, we wrote all the information in our last post. [/p][p][/p][h3]Roadmap[/h3][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Thank you for believing in us. I can’t wait to hear what you think of Magic Inn! 🪄[/p][p][/p][p]With love, [/p][p]Magic Inn Dev Team[/p][p][/p]
