Hello!
Before we roll out the next content update introduced in our roadmap, we’ve added a few useful features in advance. Please check out the details below.

[h2]Bilibili Viewer Participation Feature Added[/h2]


A viewer interaction system for the streaming platform Bilibili has been added.
You can find more details in the in-game help documentation under the UI section.


[h2]Object Floor Transfer Feature Added[/h2]


Previously, to move an object to another floor, you had to remove it and reinstall it on the desired floor.
This process has been improved—now you can move objects across floors directly by placing them or selecting an already placed object and pressing the 1~5 keys to shift floors and position them where you want.

We’re currently preparing a variety of new updates, including content we introduced in our roadmap.
Stay tuned!

Hello, and thank you to everyone who has been enjoying Animal Spa!

It’s already been two weeks since the game launched.
Since the release of the v1.1 update, we’ve been collecting valuable feedback from players and are actively preparing for the next content update.

Below, we’ll first introduce patch v1.1e, which includes several bug fixes, and then share some of the content updates we’re working on for the future.

------------------------------------



[h2]UI[/h2]

• Fixed an issue where the Settings and Close buttons were unclickable when positioned above the entrance door.
  
• The manual configuration label in the Floor Planning Desk now shows text instead of a number.
  

[h2]Bug Fixes[/h2]

• Fixed a bug where guests expressed reactions to decorations too frequently.
  
• Fixed an issue where decoration reactions were incorrectly displayed in the all-floor view.
  
• Fixed an issue where former employees, when visiting as guests, still carried bundles in their hands.
  

[h2]Visual Improvements[/h2]

• Fixed a bug where the desktop wallpaper could be seen through the TV when moving it.
  
• Fixed inconsistent opacity between the Bath Goods Store and the Deluxe Private Spa time displays.
  

---------------------------------------


[h2]Letters from Each Stage[/h2]


While running your bathhouse, have you ever wondered who lives in those nearby houses or who runs those small shops?
In upcoming updates, you’ll start receiving letters from the residents of each stage, such as Maple Village or Winter Town.

Through these letters, you’ll get a glimpse into the everyday lives of the locals—not just your customers, but the townsfolk who make up the world around your spa!



[h2]Item Rotation[/h2]


We’re working on adding the item rotation feature, one of the most requested functions.
To maintain stability with existing data, we’ll first apply this feature mainly to decorative items with a defined length rather than all structures.





[h2]Staff Dispatch System[/h2]


We’re developing a staff dispatch system that allows you to temporarily bring employees from other save files.
Dispatched staff will assist for a certain period before returning. This feature aims to ease the early burden when starting a new save and strengthen the connection between slots.



[h2]Point Collection & Maltese Customization[/h2]


You’ll soon be able to collect points from all your save files.
These points can be used to purchase cosmetic items for the main character, Maltese, or to enhance save slots (feature under consideration).


[h2]Steam Points Items[/h2]

We are also preparing Steam profile items (e.g., avatars, backgrounds, badges). Please look forward to them!

Hello everyone! Have you been enjoying the new content from the v1.1 update?
Today, we have even more exciting news to share!

《Animal Spa》 and 《Tiny Pasture》 are now available as a discounted bundle!
If you purchase both games together, you'll receive a 10% discount!

[h2]⏰ Collect adorable desktop animals![/h2]
Whether you're grabbing both games for the first time, or you already own either Animal Spa or Animal Ranch, you can still enjoy the discount by completing the bundle. Experience the double joy of running a cozy spa and a cute animal ranch!

https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/54210/Animal_Spa__Tiny_Pasture/

[h2]♨️ 《Animal Spa》[/h2]
As many of you are already enjoying, Animal Spa is a relaxing idle management simulation. Run a bathhouse with adorable staff at the bottom of your screen while you take care of other tasks. Welcome animal guests with unique stories and provide them a healing space for both body and mind.

[h2]🐇 《Tiny Pasture》[/h2]
This idle ranch game accompanies your daily work and study from the bottom of your computer screen. Purchase and raise various baby animals, collect coins dropped by fully grown ones, and expand your ranch over time. The animals will sleep, scratch, and play around at the bottom of your screen—but don't worry, they won't interfere with your workspace! If you take good care of them and feed them regularly, your ranch will steadily grow.

Hello everyone!
It’s already been a week since Animal Spa launched!

We’ve been carefully going through all the valuable feedback and suggestions you’ve shared with us.
Thanks to your incredible support, we even reached over 5,000 concurrent players,
and with that momentum, we’re excited to bring you the 1.1 content update.

We’ve prepared a bunch of new additions—from a new character and items,
to various helpful features that improve gameplay.
We’re also sharing a preview of upcoming systems,
so you can get a glimpse of the direction we’re headed to make Animal Spa even more fun and engaging!


[h2]New Character: Guinea Pig[/h2]



The guinea pig is now visiting the bathhouse.
As part of the "groundhog" family, just like other groundhog characters, it enjoys lukewarm baths and desserts.


[h2]New Decoration Items[/h2]



Over 20 new decorative items and 3 new interior themes have been added.
Decoration items may continue to be added based on player requests or seasonal themes, so stay tuned.


[h2]New Feature: TV[/h2]



A TV item that guests can gather around and enjoy has been added.
You can set the TV channel yourself, and depending on the channel, the chance of receiving stars from certain types of guests will vary.


[h2]New Feature: Decoration Reactions[/h2]



Guests will now react to decorations placed in the bathhouse.
You can check their thoughts and earn stars based on their reactions.


[h2]New Feature: Object Interaction Animations[/h2]



Certain objects now display interaction animations when used.
For example, when a guest sits under a shower, water flows out.
If they step onto a scale, they might react with joy—or sadness if their weight has unexpectedly increased.
We plan to gradually expand this feature to more objects in future updates.



[h2]New Facilities: Floor Planning Desk & Statistics Desk[/h2]

• Floor Planning Desk: Allows you to set how much guest traffic is guided to each floor to support different floor management strategies.
  
• Statistics Desk: Provides a comprehensive view of your bathhouse’s sales and guest preferences.
  

[h2]New Feature: Hide UI[/h2]

When no input is detected for a while, the UI will smoothly hide itself.
It will reappear when you start interacting again.


[h2]New Setting: Frame Rate Limit[/h2]



You can now sync the frame rate to your monitor’s refresh rate using vertical sync,
or manually limit the frame rate to 30, 60, 120, or 144 FPS to optimize performance based on your device.


[h2]New Setting: Overload Protection[/h2]



To prevent potential freezes due to overload when idle for long periods,
the game will now automatically save and return to the main menu after a set amount of inactivity.
This functions similarly to temporary closing—guests will leave and gradually return.
You can disable this feature or adjust the idle time threshold in the settings.


-------------------------------------------


[h2]Coming Soon[/h2]

[h2]In Development: Furniture Rotation[/h2]



We are developing the long-awaited furniture rotation feature.
We are starting with objects that are 2 or more tiles wide, allowing players to decorate more freely and conveniently.

[h2]In Development: Cross-Stage Features & Customization[/h2]

Many players have reported that moving to a new stage feels disconnected since progress doesn’t carry over.
To address this, we are planning and developing cross-stage features as follows:

• Staff Dispatch: Temporarily hire staff from other stages for a set period.
  
• Stage-Specific Letters: Receive themed stories matching each stage’s setting.
  
• Stage-Specific Challenges: Experience new obstacles themed around each stage that make operations more challenging.
  
• Point Collection from Other Bathhouses: Earn points based on progress in other save files, which can be used to customize Maltese and Retriever characters.
