Hello Entrepreneurs!
This update brings exciting new features, long-awaited mechanics, and dozens of improvements to make your game more enjoyable.
Important Reminder Before We Begin
Vending Machine Business Simulator is officially published only on Steam. If you see this game on mobile or console platforms, please do not purchase it. These are pirated versions and have nothing to do with me. If you want to support the game, Steam is the only official platform.
About the Leaderboard System
Unfortunately, due to the spread of pirated versions, I had to migrate the Hustlerboard system to Steam's infrastructure. Don't worry, this requires no extra action from you. Simply open the leaderboard application once, and the system will automatically add you to the rankings.
New Features
Warehouse Worker
Tired of constantly placing boxes on shelves? Now you have a helper. Place the warehouse worker inside your warehouse and get back to business. They'll automatically move product boxes from the delivery area to warehouse shelves and throw away empty boxes when done. No more spending hours moving boxes after every delivery.
Remote Vending Machine Management
You no longer need to visit each vending machine. You can manage your business from your computer or tablet:
Product Changes: When product stocks in vending machine shelves reach zero, you can remotely select and change new products Machine-Based Automation: You can now turn on/off the automatic refill service for each vending machine separately Strategic Management: Have some machines auto-refilled while letting others run out of stock so you're ready to change strategy. When stocks are depleted, you can select new products with a single click
You save time and have the freedom to manage each vending machine differently.
Market App for Tablet
You can now make your purchases from your tablet as well.
Expanding Customization Options
10 new stickers to decorate your vending machines
12 new company logo options added
Added ability to send purchased vehicles directly to your home parking lot
More Earnings, More Information
You now earn money rewards with each level up
You receive instant notifications when product prices change
