Critter Café – Ver. ??? (Update 1)

Release date: February 13th/14th 2025
Patch notes:

Sprint Toggle option added. This allows players to enable an option for players to Sprint with a single button press, instead of having to hold a button down

Toggle options added for pushing/pulling blocks during puzzles, and for the coffee pouring minigame in Open for Trade

During Open for Trade, Critters will no longer block or impede the player when they are moving across the café

Selected portal puzzles will include additional guidance to help players complete them, following community feedback

In the Tutorials section of the Journal, further guidance for Bookings has been added to assist players on how to select the correct items

Updated the descriptions for the ‘Best of Friends’ and We’re All Best Friends Here’ achievements to clarify how to complete them. Players must interact with all Critters who have reached Max Bond and trigger the ‘best friends’ cutscene for these achievements to unlock

Roaming behaviour of Critters during Open for Trade has been adjusted, meaning Critters can seem livelier around customers

Added more settings to adjust the speed of the camera and floor cursor in Customisation Mode

Fixed instances of Critters incorrectly floating after the ‘Max Bond’ animation is skipped

Multiple fixes and improvements to localisation and localised text on screen
