Relaxing Simulator News

[h3]Hello relaxed souls and gentle daydreamers![/h3][p]The Winter Sale is slowly sneaking closer and this year I actually wanted to prepare something big... but as the life of a solo dev goes: the good ideas sometimes only come when time itself is already lying comfortably on the sofa and drinking tea. 😅[/p][p][/p][p]That’s why we’re now starting a small, feel-good wishlist challenge together, where you can directly help decide which discount I will set in the Winter Sale.[/p][p][/p][p]Each of the displayed games has its own little wishlist challenge! **And the whole thing runs for exactly 10 days.**[/p][p][/p][p][/p][h3]Wishlist Challenge for the Winter Sale[/h3][p]I will of course decide myself in the end which discount I set, but your support helps me decide how generous I will become.[/p][p][/p][h3]🎯 Goal 1: +100 additional wishlists[/h3][p]➡️ Then I plan to set a 40% discount in the Winter Sale.[/p][h3]🎯 Goal 2: +500 additional wishlists[/h3][p]➡️ Then I plan to set a 60% discount in the Winter Sale.[/p][p][/p][p]If you like, you can also share the challenge with friends, every single wishlist brings a small warm light into this project.[/p][p][/p][p]And if completely unexpectedly 50,000 new wishlists appear…
well… then I guess it will be the full program.
Whatever that will be, the universe will decide. 😅[/p][p][/p][h3]Why this event?[/h3][p]Honestly: wishlists are as important for an indie game on Steam
as a warm blanket on a cold evening.[/p][p][/p][p]As a solo developer I have no big marketing teams, no advertising campaigns
and no magical budget that makes souls rain from the sky.
Things like visibility, recommendations or new players only arise together with you.[/p][p][/p][h3]And the “bigger” event?[/h3][p]I’m holding that back a little longer.
It still needs some time, a bit of planning… and maybe a warm cocoa.
Today there is first this small, feel-good event as a preview.[/p][p][/p][h3]Thank you for your support![/h3][p]Wishlist, comment, review or feedback,, for me as a solo dev that means everything more than you think.[/p][p][/p][p]Thank you for accompanying the Relaxing Simulator and bringing so much peace, warmth and love into it with your souls. ❤️[/p][p][/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][hr][/hr][p][/p][p][/p][p]In Discord you have the possibility to follow the development and ask questions.

[p]If you're here to simply do nothing, good news:
you can now do that from the cloud as well.[/p][p][/p][p]Relaxing Simulator is now available on GeForce NOW.
Explore peaceful places and enjoy calm moments without installation, without stress, and on almost any device.[/p][p][/p][p]Adjust weather and lighting to match your mood, discover forests, ruins, houses, and cozy spots, or just glide through the world, (co-op with friends coming soon).
Take a breath, let go, and play at your own pace.[/p][p][/p][p]Whether you're collecting achievements, letting your PC run for the global leaderboard, or just looking for a quiet moment, your digital retreat is now accessible everywhere. https://www.nvidia.com/de-de/geforce-now/[/p][p][/p]

• [p]No requirements.[/p]
• [p]No competition.[/p]
• [p]Just calm, now in the cloud.[/p]

[p]Hey you relaxed ones (and those who desperately need to be 👀),[/p][p]just a quick heads-up that the Relaxing Simulator Demo is still online…
and it’s slowly wondering why you haven’t visited it yet.
It’s just sitting there… all alone…
“Play me…” it whispers atmospherically.[/p][p][/p][p]So here’s the deal:[/p][p]👉 Play the demo = instantly more relaxed
👉 Add to wishlist = +10 inner peace points
👉 Multiplayer update coming soon = you’ll be able to chill together[/p][p][/p][p]I’m currently working on a calm, cozy multiplayer mode where you can enjoy the landscape together, no stress, no competition, just “we’re sitting in virtual grass doing absolutely nothing.”[/p][p]Until then, feel free to give the demo a try (if you haven’t already)… or play it again if your Zen levels are currently below zero.
Nature is calling. And for once, it’s not toxic.[/p][p][/p][p]Wishing you a relaxed and peaceful time in the game…
or in the demo, until multiplayer arrives. 😉

[h3]Achievements[/h3][p][/p][p]Based on your feedback, I’ve adjusted several achievements.
Many players felt that the previous requirements were too time-consuming, so the following changes have been made:[/p]

• [p]The required number of interactions has been reduced from 1000 to 100.[/p]
• [p]The maximum playtime needed for the “Relaxing” achievement has been reduced from 10 days to just 2 days (48 real-time hours).[/p]

[p]If you were close to completing these achievements, your progress should automatically update the next time you launch the game, and you will receive the achievement as intended.[/p][p][/p][h3]Character & Future Multiplayer[/h3][p][/p][p]I am currently working on giving your character a unique, fitting appearance (not a human model, but something that matches the atmosphere of the game).[/p][p]The reason behind this: I am planning an optional, relaxing multiplayer mode, where you can enjoy the scenery together with other players.[/p][p]This feature is still in an early stage, but I want to let you know what I’m working on.
Once I have something concrete to show, I will release a dedicated update post with more details.[/p][p][/p][h3]General Improvements[/h3][p][/p][p]I have also made several smaller optimizations to improve stability and overall performance.[/p][p][/p][p]I wish you all a relaxing and peaceful time in the game.[/p]

[h3]Fixed problems[/h3]

Achievements 5 and 7:
I have fixed the issues with these achievements. They should now function as intended.
During testing, no further problems occurred, but I will continue to monitor the situation to ensure the issue does not reappear.

Street House:
I have fixed a bug where it snowed and rained through the windows of the house.
