Talking about v0.1.6 - Weekly Devlog #1


Hello everyone!


Today I'm announcing a weekly Devlog about Store Manager. Furthermore I will also be talking about v0.1.6-pre and what will and won't come in this update. Let's get into it.


New logo

We finally have a new logo in place! It is still really simple but it does the job just fine. It now also suits the style of the game a little better. Furthermore we also got a new banner on our page!


What's coming?

Currently the planning is to add a lot of content to the game, since the "base" is now in place. This does not mean it is finished, better yet, it still needs a lot of fine tuning. Back on topic, one of the major Items is going to be Research. I'll talk about it more in depth further in this topic. I am also planning on adding category's for products.  For example, there will be a possibility to sell computer parts, but if you do not feel like it you can also unlock other things like food. This won't be available in v0.1.6-pre yet though, but the ssytem will be implemented.


Research

Research or Unlocks are the new ain way to get anything in Store Manager. This system is here because it was too easy to get the biggest shelves and the "best" products. In theory, no product is much better then another but there will be differences. The same goes for shelves. The idea is that you start out with "Basic Shelves" whihc will feature the 1m shelf, a rack and the cash register. To unlock more shelves and products you'll need to unlock more of them. When just starting you will get the option for what to sell. This cannot be changed when set.

The idea of research came from me and a community member called Blobby. Thanks for the inspiration, and it is in active development as we speak.


More products

We're finally adding more products! After construction the base of the game for 3/4th year it is now ready to expand and add content. So the first thing we're adding is a lot of new electronical items. For example, all PC Parts will be available. From Power Supplier to a CPU, anything related will be there. This will also require an update to the UI to support this, but that is already in development. These items will be available through research.


That's all for this week. Don't forget to join our Discord and follow our twitter for more smaller updates!
