UPDATE 1.2 Released

Hello Everyone!

As promised, we are releasing version 1.2, which has the following list of fixes and upcoming fixes and releases.

12.30.2018 - Patch @ 5:54am UTC - version 1.2


  • Revamped the Product Creation process to be more streamlined and easy to understand. We will still work on adding tutorials as soon as possible as the game by nature will have a learning curve. However, the changes made should make the process much more understandable and easy to pick up.
  • Refined the UI a bit more. The game was designed natively in 4k, however we have made some improvements when downscaling to 1920x1080 and lower resolutions. We will continue to improve this for ALL monitor sizes. This will remain a high priority until we completely resolve for all resolutions. Right now, you will get the best visual quality playing from 1920x1080 to 3840x 2160. We will work to make scaling to as low as 1280x720 by the time all is complete.
  • We've also improved the size of the text for MOST UI. The UI will be a work in progress for quite a while as we learn what works best for you and what does not. So we definitely encourage you to continue to provide your feedback. We are MOST DEFINITELY listening.
  • We changed the item placing process completely. You will now only be required to select the item and place it. You purchase the item once it has been placed.
  • Due to the excellent feedback, we also removed the requirement to select the desk before being able to place chairs and computers. You can now directly place these on your desk. Simply select the chair/computer and hover over a desk and left click to purchase/place on desk.
  • We have improved a number of other quality of life items. Most of these were UI related, but also the options menu (there is still more work to be done there). We will also be increasing the options available to you to tailor the game to your specifications.
  • We resolved the loading bug where items that you did not place were set in the middle of the game world. Due to the changes to the item purchasing system, that fix came as a part of the overhaul.

We would like to also take the time to apologize for releasing the game in the current state that it was in. We did not anticipate the bugs that were found and the generally lack of playability for some. We are working endlessly to fix all remaining bugs for the current build. Once we get to a completely stable build, and we believe we are close–then we will begin focusing on adding more content, which should significantly increase the fun factor. Thanks for your patience and please have a happy new year!

Early this week, we will re-assess the most important issues and address them accordingly.

Some the items high on the list are the following
  • The ability to delete walls
  • More UI improvements
  • More content being added to the game
  • More quality of life improvements. Generally continue to get the game more and more stable.
  • carpet color changes when doing certain actions
  • Employees getting stuck when building walls close to the sidewalk.
  • animation issues
  • Save files are quite large, and we intend to lower this as much as possible. A lot of data gets stored during a session. As a result, saving and loading a game will take a bit of time (~5+ seconds, or so)
  • Getting doors working (i.e. opening and closing for employees)
  • Wall textures do not load currently, however color does. We are working on resolving this as well.
  • Features soon to be unlocked and added to the game
  • Vertical building. We will be unlocking the elevator systems. This way you can build up as well as out. Currently the floor limit is – 5 floors. Though this can be increased, we have to balance the game to ensure performance can be maintained.
  • NOTE: this update will render your previous saves obsolete and unloadable. Please continue to provide feedback as it only helps us improve the game. Thanks in advance for all of your help! Changelog Forum Post here: https://steamcommunity.com/app/274960/discussions/0/1741103267272686007/
