With update 1.1.0 we have made some significant changes to several key systems of Cup and Counter. One that many people have asked for is a save system that lets you save at any time. As this system required a lot of changes to the underlying code, please let us know if you notice anything weird happening when reloading a midday save.

On top of this, we have done a new design pass over the HUD to make it take up significantly less screen real estate. We still have plans to improve this further by making orders you have claimed clearer.

Employees as a whole have received significant reworks to make them much more efficient and reliable. One of the key changes here is the ability for your employees to utilize trays.

Additionally, employees now remember that they can, in fact, lift their hands when moving stuff around.

Please continue to give us your feedback! We try our best to get to most issues as fast as possible.

One requested feature that didn't quite make it in time for this patch is the tip jar! This will make dealing with tips a much easier and less tedious process.
