【✨ New Arcade Game & Economy Rebalance】"Merge Giant Lemon" is Here! Ver.0.0.3.3

Hey Boba Masters! 🧋✨

Lately, everyone in Tapioca Town has been obsessed with fully automated farming, so we figured it's time to add some new fun to your daily life! In this update, we're not only bringing a brand-new arcade game that will let you happily "slack off" in your shop all day, but we've also done a deep balance pass on the processing station and town economy based on your feedback.

Let's dive into the core of this update! 🫧

🍋 New Arcade Machine: Merge Giant Lemon (Tapioca Town Exclusive!)

A new machine has arrived at the Tapioca Town arcade! You can now experience the incredibly addictive "Suika-style" merge mini-game. Keep merging fruits and ingredients to challenge your high score!

For this ultimate "time killer," we've also added matching exclusive achievements. Masters, if you get tired of making boba, head over to the arcade, show off your skills, and unlock some new honors!

🍳 New Processing Recipes & QTE Optimizations

We heard your feedback about making jam being "too tiring" and the QTEs being "too hard," so the ingredient processing system has received a massive burden reduction!

• Added✨ New RecipesThe processing station now features new secondary processing recipes for Black Glutinous Rice and Butterfly Pea Flower . Go try out the new crafting routes!

• 📈 Increased Yields & Easier QTEs:

  • AdjustedGrape Jam & Raspberry JamMassive yield increase (from 1 to 3 portions!) and completely simplified QTE difficulty. Making jam is no longer a chore!
  • AdjustedBoba (Pearl)As a basic, high-frequency ingredient, the QTE difficulty has been significantly reduced.
  • AdjustedGreen Rice BallYield increased (1 to 2 portions), QTE adjusted to medium-high difficulty.
  • AdjustedBoboQTE adjusted to medium difficulty.

  • Mochi: Still retains its current highest-difficulty ranking.

💰 Town Economy Rebalance: Pricing Adjustments

To ensure your hard work is rewarded more fairly, we've implemented a comprehensive overhaul of the town's prices:

• ☕ Price Increases for Coffee & Select Drinks:

  • Across-the-board price hikes for coffee drinks! The selling prices for Americano, Latte, Coconut Latte, Iced Americano, Coconut Water Americano, and Orange C Americano have all been significantly boosted (e.g., a max-level Latte went from 60 to 80).

  • The profit margins for Hand-Mashed Taro Milk Green Tea and Osmanthus Chestnut Hot Latte have also been noticeably increased.

• 🌱 Cheaper Seeds, Lower Early-Game Costs:

  • The purchase prices for Red Bean, Raspberry, and Coffee Bean seeds have been heavily reduced (e.g., Red Bean seeds dropped from 80 to 40, Raspberry seeds from 100 to 60).

  • Meanwhile, the direct selling price of Red Beans has actually increased (from 10 to 15), making farming even more profitable!

• 🛒 Market Price Adjustments for Finished Ingredients:

  • Significantly lowered the buying/selling prices for finished ingredients at the shop (such as Taro Paste, Chestnut Paste, Soybean Powder, Mochi, Green Rice Balls, etc.). This means buying certain ingredients for emergencies early on is cheaper, but it also strongly encourages you to turn them into drinks before selling them to maximize your profits!

This economic and numerical adjustment aims to make your early-game management smoother and your late-game profits more rewarding. We will continue to monitor your feedback in the community!

Brand-new town quests and story content are still in intense development. Thank you all for your continuous support for Call of Boba. Have fun in the arcade, and enjoy swimming in your newfound profits! 💖
