Hello everyone, I'm Simon! We've just released the early access version of Cabin Crew Life Simulator, and as usual, our weekly Devlog will keep you updated on the latest improvements.
Since the game’s launch, I’ve been incredibly excited to see the warm reception from the community. The overwhelmingly positive feedback from players has given us even more motivation to refine the game further. Some players have appreciated the small improvements that enhance realism, while many others have requested even more exciting new features and we’re listening to all of you.
We've received many questions from you: Will free-flight mode be added? Can I avoid dangerous events if I want to? Will there be new services to enhance the passenger experience? These are exactly what we’re going to address in this update.
If you're new to the game, don't forget to check out previous
devlogs to get an in-depth look at our development journey from initial concepts to the challenges we've overcome. These logs also include handy tips and deeper insights into game mechanics. We are always striving to deliver the most realistic experience possible.
Now, let's explore the exciting updates coming in the next version.[h2]Endless Mode: Customize Your Flight Experience[/h2]
-
Can I customize my flights and choose the aircraft I want to work on?One of the most requested features has been the ability to fly freely without being restricted by level or missions. To address this, we've introduced Endless Mode, which unlocks after reaching level 5. From this point, you can select your preferred aircraft, departure, and destination as you wish. However, since this mode is not part of the structured career progression, experience points won’t be earned, and you’ll only receive income after each flight.
Implementing this feature was no simple task. We had to carefully balance how to maintain engagement without losing the game's challenge factor. The in-flight event system remains active, but in future updates, we may add an option to disable it for those who prefer completely uninterrupted flights.
[h2]Thread Mode : Controlling In-Flight Events[/h2]
We've gone through almost all player feedback regarding in-flight events, and one particular situation really made us think. During their third flight, a player was completely terrified when they discovered a snake in the overhead compartment. To be honest, they were absolutely shocked.
This intense event made us realize that not everyone enjoys high-stress situations. While some players love the thrill and unexpected challenges, others prefer a peaceful, relaxing experience. That’s why we decided to introduce a feature that allows players to control the types of events that occur during flights.
Now, we’ve divided events into two main categories:
- Mild events: These include helping passengers, offering additional meal services, and handling minor inquiries.
- Intense/dangerous events: Situations such as onboard fires, unruly passengers, terrorism, or emergency landings.
With this improvement, you can now choose how you want to play. Do you want a challenge or a stress-free flight? The choice is now yours.
[h2]Market Level 2 : Expanding Services and Passenger Interaction[/h2]
Starting from level 4, players could begin selling basic items onboard, including souvenirs. However, we realized that in-flight services needed to be richer to truly reflect the role of the cabin crew.
This update unlocks Market Level 2, adding a variety of new products and services to increase passenger satisfaction. Now, you can offer hot beverages, pre-packaged meals, and exclusive services to enhance the overall flight experience.
Beyond simply adding new items, we have also improved passenger AI so that they react more realistically to the services you provide. If you serve the right items quickly, passengers will show their appreciation and might even leave positive feedback. Conversely, if service is slow or incorrect, they might complain and lower your rating.
Additionally, microwaves will be introduced, meaning you’ll need to heat pre-packaged meals before serving them, ensuring food quality is at its best. If not, negative reviews will appear at the end of the flight.
We believe these improvements will make in-flight service more immersive and realistic, helping you feel like a true cabin crew professional.
[h2]Improved Graphics With Automatic Anti-Aliasing[/h2]
One common issue that players encountered was jagged edges on different devices with varying hardware configurations. To resolve this, we have implemented an automatic anti-aliasing system, allowing the game to dynamically adjust the level of anti-aliasing based on your device’s performance.
This feature not only enhances visual smoothness but also optimizes game performance, ensuring better graphics without affecting frame rates. Since every player has a different system, automatic recognition and optimization are the best ways to ensure everyone gets the best visual experience possible.
[h2]AI Crew Assistants : Your Reliable Team Onboard[/h2]
As the game's title suggests, you wouldn’t be able to manage flights without the help of your cabin crew team. Especially on larger aircraft with more passengers, the workload increases significantly.
AI assistants have always been an essential part of Cabin Crew Life Simulator, but we received plenty of feedback stating that AI wasn’t as effective as players expected. Some reported that AI was slow to react and wasn’t proactive in assisting during urgent situations.
Therefore, in this update, we have significantly enhanced AI Crew Assistants, making them more intelligent and efficient. AI can now autonomously handle tasks such as fulfilling passenger requests, collecting trash, and automatically returning to their seats during takeoff and landing. This gives you more time to focus on critical flight management tasks.
These improvements not only reduce your workload but also make the game feel more immersive just like working with a real airline crew.
[h3]Looking Ahead & Thank You![/h3]
We understand that no update is perfect right from the start, but we are always ready to listen to
community feedback to improve the game day by day. Our development team has worked tirelessly to bring these new features to life, and we hope they make your experience even more enjoyable.
