Early Access Released

Since launching the free demo of Hipster Café in Steam Next Fest in February, we've had an incredible amount of invaluable player feedback. We want to keep working with our players to make sure the game is the best it can be, and we think the right next step for that is to enter early access. With that in mind I've just set the Early Access version live on the store.

A huge amount of content is already in the game, but naturally for early access some systems will still receive more balancing, tweaks and bug fixes based on player feedback.

Here are some of the things you can already do in the early access version:

• Build furniture, decorations, equipment and entertainment items from a list of over 220 items in your Hipster Café. Hipsters just wanna have fun.

• Make stupid food by combining 80 weird ingredients, serve it up on one of eight different "plates".

• Manage your menu to impress over 30 different types of hipsters.

• From filter coffee to cold brew, adjust the flavour of 10 types of coffee, and impress the hipsters by drawing what they ask for with the latte art in their coffee.

• Keep up to date on the latest trends on social media. Send out a Toot with the right hashtags before the Hot Take timer goes out to gain bonus followers for your café!

• Research to unlock the improved entertainment items, better café equipment and more ingredients.

• Choose the colours and floors of your café, and design it's unique logo.

• Hire and manage your very own staff from more than 30 hireable characters.

• Call your dad when you run out of money, or just to ask "What's up?",

The demo version will remain free for those who prefer to wait for a final release.

We are looking forward to getting more feedback from you all. You can continue to use the in game feedback button, the steam discussion boards or just email us at steam@usefulslug.com with your comments.

Thank you so much to all the players that have given us feedback so far! You're awesome!
