The wait is almost over. One week from now Birb Caf will finally be going live on Steam!
This news also comes with the last major update for the game demo...
... a complete rebalance of the coffee making stats.
Why?
While our testers could figure out which stats are required based on dialogue hints, the actual numbers were nearly impossible to figure out without painful trial-and-error, as they were too confusing and arbitrary from order to order. This was also impossible to balance (believe me, we tried), so we did the next best thing: simplify it!
The bean now adds a "greater" amount of stat, the sweetener a "lesser" amount, and combined they become an "overwhelming" amount of stat.
This is both much more intuitive and provides better feedback to the player as to what they did wrong (or right!)
We hope it's worth the wait!
Birb Café is a coffee-making visual novel about a cute bird helping adventurers on their quests. Your choices matter!
Join Chelly as she picks up an apron and opens up her very own café: The Feathered Cup! Her customers are adventurers from all over the world, and they need the perfect stat-boosting coffee to succeed on their quest: a strength boost, poison resist, or perhaps just something to soothe their nerves?
Whatever it is that they need, Chelly will do her absolute best to help them!
Full game features:
over 60 days worth of dialogue and coffee making, some days may be completely different based on your previous choices!
over 13 unique customers, each with their own story
more upgrade levels for your coffee beans, sweeteners, and recipes
more coffee recipes to unlock, based on real recipes, and each with their own stats
3 brewing methods, each with their own effects on drink stats
branching paths and dialogue based on the coffee you serve, your customer's success depends on it even more in the full version... but still no pressure!
