Since the end of September I've worked through more than 250 changes. Here's what's new:
A street that lives People now use the street: they sit on benches, drink from the fountain, check the map, lock their bikes, read, doze and chat. Dogs are out with their owners (and leave something behind now and then). Queues form when the food blogger writes about you.
Little everyday problems Litter, dog mess, bikes against your shop window, tags on the walls, pigeons, loose paving stones, flickering lamps, hot days. Sort them out by hand, or find a way to fix them for good…
Decorating, a lot more of it More detailed shop interiors, walls and floors in many colours, shop windows to decorate, hanging trade signs, flags, new street lamps, murals, lots of small items. You can duplicate anything you've placed, and the decorate bar is reworked with search.
More of a challenge Stars 4 and 5 need good days in a row, milestones take longer, and upgrades need happy guests. The street gets better step by step, not in one click.
Feel Reworked poses and gestures, a much calmer camera, an intro, lots of new sounds, a flashlight for evening walks (F), performance settings for older machines, and save points you can export as a file.
Hundreds of bug fixes People walking through walls, flickering, shadows, saves.
And a proper ending The browser version is now a demo of the first five days. On the last evening you get a "Thank you for playing" screen with your street on day 1 next to day 5. The longer the street ran, the more could go wrong late in the game, so I'm keeping the browser version to the part I can really polish. The rest is coming to Steam: six more kinds of shop, a small hotel, the city supermarket, the bus, the tram and the metro, a car-free street, the historic cobblestones and the carousel on the market square.
Your old save: the demo starts fresh, so earlier progress doesn't carry over. Sorry about that. Five days goes quicker the second time.
Thanks to everyone who played and sent feedback, it shaped this version a lot. ♥
