Project Update: Early Access V0.3 Devlog #6

☕ Tailside now speaks four more languages! This one went less into new content and more into opening the café doors wider: German, French, Russian and Simplified Chinese have joined the game, Steam Deck and controller play got a proper pass from top to bottom, build mode got much smarter about what you are grabbing and where things end up sitting, and a big pile of your reported bugs fixed up.

ACHIEVEMENT: 250+ reviews acquired! ⭐

Community Requests:
  • New languages added: German, French, Russian and Simplified Chinese
  • Aero now has new decor items for trading!
  • Switching language mid game now re-applies instantly across every panel, no restart needed
  • Notification pop up sounds can now be toggled or adjusted in settings, since they got a bit much sometimes
  • Button click sound updated
  • Tooltips added in the shop for quick item previews before you buy
  • Upgrades now show in red or green exactly what you are still missing
  • Plushie collection counter added so you can see how many you have unlocked out of the total
  • Latte art cursor speed with a gamepad now depends on how far you push the joystick instead of one fixed speed, and the same was added to the build mode cursor on top of the existing fast/slow toggle
  • Build mode grabbing reworked: the grabbable area is now the item sprite itself, and when items overlap you pick up the one on top (highly requested improvement)
    Little main menu visual update because the dev felt like it! (Can't resist seeing little creatures floating around)
  • Trading availability from all NPCs lowered to a 20% chance and the trade window shortened, so trades feel a bit more special
  • Empty cups are now visible behind decor


Fixes:
  • Fixed Japanese glyphs appearing blurry after the recent missing character fix
  • Fixed NPC dialogue in the brewing panel not being translated
  • Fixed name tags and level up tooltips not pulling from the item database, so entries like "Reach LV 3" and "Reach LV 6" translate correctly now
  • Fixed tooltips showing image file names instead of proper item names, including all of the galaxy themed carpets
  • Fixed items not showing their image in trades
  • Fixed text overflowing its box in some translated strings
  • Fixed pastry text not turning green when on sale
  • Fixed the pastry description tooltip being too small to read
  • Fixed the "trade now available" guide popping up again every day
  • Fixed the empty cups storage no longer being used
  • Fixed the cup returning glitch
  • Fixed some furniture not being collected
  • Fixed the collect orders issue reported on Discord
  • Fixed levelling up right after finishing a coffee blocking that order from completing properly
  • Fixed footstep sounds playing while walking around in the pause menu and settings
  • Fixed stackable items not placing on a table when a wall collider was next to it
  • Fixed large floor items such as big plants rendering on top of tables after saving and loading
  • Fixed the "not available in this area" tooltip in build mode
  • Fixed the glitching effect on decor items when filters are applied
  • Steam Deck: fixed the save slot issue with controller, controller input dropping while using the coffee tools, and the remaining reported Deck issues
  • Performance: build mode no longer refreshes every item each frame, plus optimization passes on river floating items, terrace creature spawning and heavily decorated cafés
  • Miscellaneous minor bug and UI fixes
