Version 1.3 Update

Now you can handle even the busiest days more smoothly than ever. Let’s take a look at what’s new!

Items marked with💈were added thanks to community feedback.

Improvements:

• 💈Co-op Unlock System

  Good news! Even if you haven’t unlocked a level in your local save, you can now record your score and unlock the corresponding characters while playing in co-op.

  Please note:

  Progress for these levels will only be displayed after you complete all previous levels in your own save file.

  For example:

  If you complete Levels 1-5 through 2-7 in co-op but haven’t cleared the earlier levels locally, those levels will still appear locked in your save. However, the new characters will be unlocked and your scores will still be recorded. Once you complete Levels 1-1 through 1-4 in your own save file, Levels 1-5 through 2-7 will unlock automatically.

• Active Skill Visual Upgrade

  Active skills now have a clearer indicator when fully charged, along with new visual effects when activated.

• Controller Vibration Support

  Players using supported game controllers will now experience vibration effects during gameplay.

• UI Optimizations

  Optimized and improved various UI displays.

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed an issue where non-host players would get stuck in the lobby after leaving a co-op session.

• Fixed an issue where non-host players could freeze in their own lobby after being removed by the host if they were in the locker at the time.

• Fixed an issue where Hayato would use his active skill on a customer with no haircut needs after giving a massage, causing the game to freeze.

• Fixed an issue where the Boss could get stuck inside the portal in Level 6-7 when hit by players near the portal.

• Fixed synchronization issues with unlocking levels in co-op.

• Fixed an issue preventing mouse use in the Character Switch menu.

• Fixed an issue where changing difficulty on the world map sometimes failed to apply once a level started.

• Fixed a visual bug in co-op where non-host players couldn’t see character changes on screen.

• Fixed an issue where the perm machine animation would glitch when used on stunned customers.

• Fixed an issue where the hair dye machine only displayed a single color for non-host players.

• Fixed an issue where the game would pause for non-host players when the host paused in the lobby.

• Fixed an issue where the Boss would not attack in the final level.

• Fixed an issue in the Glacier Boss level where customers would fall into the water in certain situations.

• Fixed an issue where a prompt to smack a cactus appears even when there are none around.
