Hi everyone!! I know I do this every single time, but I mean it this time... This is the last build Im going to push to Cryptid Coffeehouse... I SWEAR. This time I have a little less to show than Ive had with previous updates, but it's all great stuff nonetheless. Plus, I also have some announcements!! Anyway, without further ado, I present to you Cryptid Coffeehouse version 3.1.2: the final patch! In this build, Ive updated the following: Optimization fixes! When you boot up the game, everything should be a lot faster and your computer's fans shouldn't sound like they're taking off :-) A reworked set of save & load screens! The old ones weren't the smoothest to page through, especially with a controller, so they've been modified to not only look better but function better. A complete overhaul of the character initialization screen! When I first built the new character initialization screens into the game, I had this feeling that they were kind of... off. Looking back, it's just that they were a little ugly. They're no longer ugly because Ive redesigned them to be much easier on the eyes! It will be easier to create custom sets of pronouns now, as well as confirm your character information before you begin the game. I've added a way to exit the character initialization to go back to the main menu (by pressing the escape key), and Ive also added my favorite feature of the update: the ability to pick your relationship label. Instead of being generally referred to as Artemis' partner, you can choose between being called their partner, their boyfriend, or their girlfriend! It adds a little more immersion for those who prefer more gendered terms <3 Modified controller support! For those of you who play with a controller, it should be much easier to navigate around the user interface with all those little joysticks and buttons now. It's a small set of new features, but everything greatly improves your experience as a player in the game. I hope everyone enjoys! And now for my announcements! First and foremost, I am very happy to announce that after almost three years of secret development, Cryptid Coffeehouse is now available on Xbox consoles! You can now date Artemis... ON DA BIG SCREEN (your television)!!!! This has been something Ive been holding in for the longest time, and Im so happy that we've finally gotten here. If you have an Xbox, please consider playing the console version! You can find it on the Xbox store here. As for my PlayStation and Nintendo Switch gamers... I will have something very special for you by the end of the year ^_^ <3 Secondly, I am very thrilled to belatedly announce that you can listen to the official Cryptid Coffeehouse soundtrack on Spotify, as well as buy a digital download of it on Bandcamp! There have been so many requests for this since I debuted the original soundtrack, and now it's here! There are plans to release physical versions of the soundtrack album (with cutesy lil inclusions) in the coming months, so please keep your eyes peeled on my socials if that's something you'd be interested in :D And with that, that's everything! As always, thank you all for your kind words and support. You all keep me going! I'm just one little guy making these silly little games, and it means so much to me that so many people in this world hold Artemis as close to their heart as I hold them close to mine. Thank you so much! I really couldn't have asked for a better fanbase. Please look forward to my future work! I promise I won't disappoint <3 <3

cryptid coffeehouse is a very casual, slice-of-life type of game about living in the midwest, meeting new people, and developing feelings for someone. it's a game about relationships and the importance of consent, permission, and respect in those relationships, especially relationships that are between stages. and, as corny as it sounds, it's a game about being yourself.
content warnings: swearing, mentions of recreational alcohol & marijuana consumption, sexual tension, and a lot of kissing ;)
