Hi everyone! It's been a while, and I'm sure by now all hope has been lost of Latte Stand Tycoon getting any of the promised love...well, I'm here to say that things are about to change. Initially, with the last planned update, I had a massive goal that ended up becoming Latte Stand Tycoon +, because it was just such a change, and it didn't make sense to have it just be an update. This left this original game sort of just sitting around, and I just wasn't able to keep up the work on it.

Fast Forward

Sadly, I had lost the original project files, and couldn't work on the game anymore at all...but not too long ago I was able to recover them! However, even then I wasn't able to spend time on an update because it just simply wasn't in the cards for how much time it'd take with my other work, but I've recently gained full ownership of the game, and now that I have a bit more time to work on it, things are underway!

The Update

Now that I've officially begun working on the update, I can say I'm quite excited about this...but there is one downside - I won't be able to keep the original saves in-tact, so I'll do my best to keep two builds, one for the original and one for the update (this will become the main). I believe that I can provide a better experience now, though, because I've learned a lot more about game development, and can improve things quite a bit. I can improve on every aspect, make it more animated and fun, while keeping the original game experience intact. I'm estimating the update will be out by the middle of next month, but I will try to bring it even sooner! I won't give away any spoilers, but I can say that I'll have a couple new gameplay elements introduced, the UI will be cleaned up a bit, I may or may not keep the delivery driver system - it feels unneeded, but I'd like to hear your thoughts - and I have a fun little addition to celebrate this game coming back from the dead. I'm greatly looking forward to this update, and I hope you will be too. Thanks everyone!
