[h3]Hello Chefs! Thank you all for the numerous suggestions and feedback after the release of the demo. The development team extends our utmost gratitude. We will continue to work hard and aim to complete the game as soon as possible. We also invite those interested to join the conversation on Steam's discussion boards or in our official Discord group. Your encouragement gives us the motivation to keep pushing forward! Here's this month's progress report: [/h3] [h2]1. Dialogue Review Feature[/h2] [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//44711317/50ca3912d681a1ff6413fb3ebe0c611816f52ad1.jpg[/img] (The image above is a temporary interface; it will be updated once the artwork is finalized.) [h3]This feature was actually planned from the beginning, but couldn't be implemented in time for the demo. It's now fully functional and will be complete once the interface assets are in place.[/h3] [h2]2. Chapter Opening Animations and Sound Effects[/h2] [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//44711317/52646e9a071c841a11b7afcc8d9b7c2e15d01d3a.gif[/img] [h3]Many players suggested making the transitions between chapters feel more ceremonial. So, we've added date displays and some weather-related sound effects (like the sound of rain) at the beginning to enhance the immersive experience. Additionally, from Chapter 2 onwards, players will be able to skip the opening animations to avoid waiting too long.[/h3] [h2]3. Enhanced Immersion[/h2] [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//44711317/cc01fb8153d281dafd823bc6b38bb41a55f87050.gif[/img][h3]The store manager has finally found the lid! Now, when you throw ingredients into the pot, you'll cover it with a lid to work some delicious magic.[/h3] [h2]4. Rainy Day Effects[/h2] [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//44711317/7f93d5d1fa986f10a91f2a9031023433dc61862a.gif[/img][h3]Certain chapters will feature rain effects and sound. A bowl of ramen is perfect for a cool, rainy day![/h3] [h2]5. Planned Support for Cloud Saves and Achievement System[/h2] [h3]To make it more convenient for players to play across devices, we've spent some time perfecting the cloud save feature and achievement system. We plan to offer around 20 standard and hidden achievements for players to earn.[/h3] - [h3]We've also been working hard on writing the story and optimization.
