The Cafe Comes Alive

This one's about atmosphere: a resident cat, real weather, and light that moves with the day. Full changelog below.

🐱 The Cafe Cat

  • Meet the cafe cat: pick one of 4 coats and give it a name when you open your cafe — your companion sticks with you across every run.

  • It wanders its own routes through the aisles, naps where it pleases, and yes — you can pet it. A little heart tells you it's working.

  • Rumor has it a truly loyal friendship unlocks something hidden…

🌧 Rainy Days

  • Some days now open grey: rain hums against the storefront, drops streak down the glass, and thunder rolls in — with lightning that flashes the whole room in sync with the sound.

  • Slightly fewer walk-ins while it pours. The cozy factor, however, is priceless.

💡 Living Light & Shadows

  • Furniture now casts real shadows that swing with the sun — long at dawn, short at noon, stretching again toward dusk.

  • Sunbeams pour through the windows on clear afternoons.

  • At night your cafe sign burns neon pink — breathing, buzzing, occasionally flickering like the real thing.

  • PC screens, vending machines and arcades glow harder after dark.

🏆 New Achievements

  • 7 new achievements: streak runs, money milestones — plus two secrets we won't spoil. (Hint: one involves the cat. The other, a fly.)

✨ Feel & Fixes

  • Customers now fidget, stretch and look around while they wait — the room feels busier without being noisier.

  • Screen shake is back on the big moments (level-ups, streaks, breakdowns).

  • New sounds: purring, rain, thunder, neon buzz, and a proper power-down thunk on blackouts.

  • The floor shimmer is gone — a rendering quirk as old as the cafe itself, fixed at the root.

  • Cleaner UI icons and a pile of small polish.

Enjoying the game? A short review helps a small cafe more than you'd think. 💛
