Hi Everyone! A whole week has passed since the launch of Startup Freak, and it has been an emotional roller coaster.

We have had a few people talk about the difficulty of the game and how some concepts are not clearly explained.

Meanwhile we haven't been sitting around and checking the bank account (OK maybe a little)! Version 0.8.0 is already here with a bunch of improvements:

Features

  • Added auto-saving. There are 3 slots, and auto-saves happen every 10 sprints.

  • Added a button for fixing all product bugs.

  • Added a context menu button to features to fix all bugs for that feature.

  • Added extra buttons in the marketing UI to increment/decrement the spending by $10,000 (your fingers will thank us).

  • Increased the capacity of the 'Amaranthine' (level 10) server.

  • Auto-upgrade items like chairs and desks now show the number of items that will be upgraded next to the price.

  • The task details page where the research level is displayed now shows exactly what type of skill is required.

  • If the player purchases anything that is too expensive (more than 30% of total cash), a confirmation message is displayed.

  • Before moving to a new office, a confirmation message is displayed with the cost of the move.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed: the marketing tooltips sometimes appear behind other UI elements.

  • Fixed: sometimes the initial pricing hint for the analytics product is larger than the allowable maximum ($9999)

On the issue of bugs, we are still seeing some error logs that are hard to explain or reproduce. On our end we are adding more logging so hopefully we can track them down, but we really need your help too. If you are seeing the game crash or behave incorrectly, please get in touch. Your save files will be especially helpful to get any issues sorted. Have fun launching!
