Check Inn News

Development news - we made a level with freezing rooms!

We continue to work on the levels in Check Inn, and we're trying to make them diverse. For example, in Montreal and other locations with cold winters, you will have to control the temperature.

When the temperature outside drops below certain levels, uninsulated rooms will freeze. New guests cannot be accommodated in a frozen room, and those who lived there continue their stay, while their timer is also “frozen”. Therefore, you need to insulate your rooms. There are several options for insulation - from simple to robust, designed for the lowest temperatures.


Don't forget to add the game to your wishlist if you haven't already, and we, in turn, will continue to talk about the progress of development.

We updated the Demo!

The most important new feature is balconies instead of terraces. They can only be built at one of the edges of the hotel. That is, there are no more rooms that would block the entire column of cells vertically, making further construction on it impossible.



Now the elevators are upgraded gradually, little by little. You can choose which of the elevator specifications to improve - speed or capacity. The ability to improve elevators opens only after the appropriate step in training.

Also, the room icon on the guest wish panel turns green if there is currently a free room of this type. That is, now you don’t have to select a guest to see if there is a suitable room. This is especially convenient when the hotel is already pretty tall.

It is still important for us to hear your opinion about the demo. Please let us know what you liked and what you didn't like.

Development news - join our Discord server!

The development of Check Inn is underway, and we will be happy to share news with you. We have created a separate channel for Check Inn on our Discord server, where we will publish development news. There you can join the chat and discuss your questions regarding the game. Come in, we'll be glad to see you there :) Link: https://discord.com/invite/9eHyYap

The most important news of the previous week is the change in the concept of rooms with terraces. We decided that the current implementation did not capture the potential of the core game mechanics well. Now instead of rooms with terraces there will be balconies. A room with a balcony can be placed at the left or right side of the hotel so that the cell with the balcony is “in the air”. The shape of such rooms is more complex than regular ones, but you can also get more money for a guest staying in them. There will be no more situations when nothing can be built over them anymore. However, rooms with terraces will also not disappear without a trace and we are going to use them on one of the special levels. By the way, one of the players suggested the idea of ​​balconies, and we picked it up and implemented it in the game.

Over the next week, we will try to update the demo version of the game so that you can evaluate the updated logic for constructing such rooms. At the same time, you will be able to see gradual improvements in elevators. Now the speed of the elevator and its capacity are pumped separately and a little at a time, at a lower cost than before. This way, you will have more control over them and you will be able to choose what is best to spend your money on at the current time.



We present to your attention the first screenshot from a 4-star hotel. As you can see, the forms of numbers are much more complex; in particular, there are no single-cell numbers that can be used to “plug” unnecessary spaces. At this level, like in chess, you have to think several steps ahead, preparing in advance the conditions for the location of future numbers. The reception and elevator shaft that are visible in the screenshot are temporarily taken from another hotel.
