First of all, thank you for your support and the almost exclusively positive reviews in the days since release! 🌸

We're especially happy about the active uploads in the Steam Workshop! Unfortunately, we had some technical issues with thumbnail uploads from within the application at release. With today's patch, these have been fixed, which means you can now equip your existing mods with nice preview images :)

Here's an overview of the patch notes:

[h2]Bug Fixes 🛠️[/h2]

- We improved customer navigation in the store entry area to prevent them from getting stuck in a corner if a decoration blocks their path.

- We fixed an issue where cashiers sometimes weren't assigned to cash registers when loading a save.

- To unlock the achievement where you need to sell pillows without profit, it's no longer necessary to sit at the cash register yourself. Cashiers now also contribute progress toward this achievement.

- We fixed the setting that allows you to disable advertisements not working. When ads are turned off, the screens are now black.

- We fixed an issue where images from mods couldn't be loaded when they were placed in subfolders.



[h2]Steam Workshop UI Improvements 🖼️[/h2]

- If a mod has a thumbnail, we now show it in the list.

- We now show a warning if a mod has no thumbnail or description, with a tooltip that explains how to solve the issue.

- We fixed issues with special characters (\t, \n, etc.) in paths when uploading a mod.

- We fixed the issue where it wasn't possible to edit the thumbnail or description after the initial upload of a mod.



[h2]Performance & Stability ⚡[/h2]

We've optimized many things here and expect your larger shops to run noticeably better. If not, please contact us! Preferably with a save file that we can test. You can find instructions on where to locate it here.

Sayonara - We look forward to your feedback on the new patch and wish you continued fun selling pillows! 👗✨
