Hello everyone!

Please give it a go and let us know what you think.
There is still a laundry list of things to improve on and we will continue working hard to get them done.
If you played the demo, you will notice that a lot has changed since then, the game finally has actual progression mechanics!

Currently more work needs to be done on the core gameplay loop, as well as the Tokyo map before we would be happy with it. We have many more things planned for the future, including more locations, more game mechanics and an expanded world map where you can also manage your locations remotely, phasing out the skip time function in favour of other ways to progress time such as sleeping.

In the short term we will be focusing on more polish, gameplay loop improvements, balancing and getting the London location out as soon as possible. We expect the London map, as well as store renovation to be out within a couple days.

If you have any feedback on how to improve the game, we would love to hear it! Please submit feedback or bug reports in the main menu and we will look into any responses as quick as we can.

If you decide to give the game a go, we cannot thank you enough!

Hi everyone!

Lots of quality of life updates in this patch as we move closer and closer to release. Thank you everyone for your continued support and feedback. We'd just like to mention that due to the scale of changes in this patch, old save files will NOT work in this latest patch.

Hi everyone!

Thanks to everyone who has tried the demo so far! We have added a close sign so now you can close the store to make changes without new customers getting in your way. We are going to focus more on fixing the core gameplay loop for the main game from now on, but we will still be looking out for any bugs or quick fixes we can implement in the demo.

Please look forward to the full release!

Hi everyone!

Thank you again for playing our demo. We're working hard to stabilize the demo and will be releasing regular patches over the next few days. Thank you for all the feedback, we're taking it into account and looking into addressing your concerns/feedback.

We've finally fixed that frustrating "Customers getting stuck in the store/on chairs" bug that many of you had and are implementing more quality of life updates.

Thank you so much for playing!

Fixed fatal bug with machines that use card

Fixed a variety of UI related bugs


Moved laptop and counting table to backroom of laundromat

Added stats tooltip for machines

Added a placement restrictions indicator to the shop item detail panel to indicate where you are allowed to place an item.

Updated AlexList to look more like a second hand website.


Placing a seating item (e.g. chair or couch) in your apartment leads to unexpected behavior.

NPCs can get stuck and either stay in the laundromat after finishing or sit down in mid-air in front of their machine.

Chairs can become unmovable after an NPC has already left the chair.


Hi everyone!

I just wanted to give a huge thanks to everyone who has played the demo so far! We are very happy with the games performance so far and you can expect more updates, quality of life changes and bug fixes throughout Steam Next Fest.

We would love to hear any feedback or bug reports, both of which can be submitted via the links in the main menu of the game.

Also, a quick note, there is a skip time function in the pause menu that allows you to speed up gameplay. Sorry that was unclear! We will be updating the tutorials and adding much needed explanations for many mechanics very soon!

Again, thanks so much for playing!
