📢 Dev Diary #2 – Crafting Your Own Board Games!
Hey everyone!
Today we’re excited to give you a sneak peek at one of the big systems we’ve been working on: 🎲 Crafting your own board games inside your shop!
This new feature lets you gather components, design gameplay elements, and assemble unique board games that you can use to attract more players and encourage longer play sessions in your store. Players who stay longer will bring more life to your shop — and more income!
But that’s not all. Alongside the board game creation system, several new mechanics are currently in development:
🎮 🆕 Upcoming Mechanics
✨ Craft Your Own Board Games
Collect components, design the layout, assemble pieces, and produce your own custom board games.
👥 Attract More Players
Well-crafted games will draw more customers to your shop, increasing activity and play sessions.
💸 Sell Your Handmade Board Games
You can also put your creations on the shelf and sell them to customers for extra profit.
🥤 Vending Machine Purchases
Customers will now spend money at your vending machines, giving you an additional passive income stream.
😓 Realistic Store Mess System
Players leave behind dirty tables, spilled snacks, sweat marks, and random junk on the floor. You’ll need to clean up to keep your shop tidy and maintain good customer feedback.
🚧 More Features on the Way!
These systems are currently in active development, and we aim to include them in an upcoming build. We’ll share more detailed breakdowns soon — including how crafting works step-by-step, how game quality affects customer behavior, and how your handmade games integrate with the shop economy.
Thanks again for all your support! Stay tuned for more updates — and for the upcoming Playtest. 🎉
