Last few months have been pretty crazy for us at the office. Not only have we added some new features to the game but we've also got cross-platform support up and running. You can head over here to see what new platforms we've expanded to.
Furthermore No Time to Relax has been selected to the PAX East Indie Showcase. We'll be there with a booth so drop by, say hello and pick up some schwag if you are attending PAX!
Now let's get to the updated and changes!
New Features
- Cross-Platform: Game is now running on a new and different network than before. We made this migration to offer and support cross-platform play between PC and consoles. Head on over here to our web page to see what platforms we expanded into.
- Japanese: Game is now enjoyable in Japanese! We recommend you try it out, even if you don’t speak the language!
- Transport: Tired of walking everywhere you go? Visit VexCorp™ and purchase one of their patented transportation technologies. You can get lifetime access to the town’s Vexportation networks, a lifestyle VexScooter™ or the Nikola™ Electric Vehicle. Spend less time getting around and spend your time on things that matter.
- Weekend Cards: Added new transport themed weekend cards.
- VexPhone: VexCorp made history this year when they introduced the VexPhone, the world’s first “smart” phone. It comes equipped with an intuitive touch screen and the most powerful antenna ever put on a phone. This phone allows you pay with items using the money in your bank account. Being in constant contact with your broker is also a sure way to increase any profits you get from your investments.
- Investments: Investments have been buffed to make them more appealing. When you make money off investments you now multiply your profit (but not losses). If you own a VexPhone your multiplier is increased even further!
- Time Limits: Time Limits introduced! Do your friends take forever to finish their week? We’ve introduced optional time limits when creating a game. You can choose from Unlimited, 120 seconds, 60 seconds or nerve racking 30 seconds. Available in online and local play.
- AI Pet bug: Fixed bug where AI pets could not die from starvation.
- Resolution fixes: Fixed how screen resolution is handled in game. We’ve fixed it so the game in now playable in Fullscreen, Windowed and Windowed Fullscreen. Support for all kinds of weird and exotic screen ratios now included. Also fixed bug where wrong items were selected in the graphics menu.
- Code Invites: Added the ability to invite people to online games using a four-letter code. This is especially useful when playing cross platform private matches. (not available in all regions)
- Zombie bug: Zombie muggers can no longer steal the money you get from your aunt.
- Retina Support: Added retina support for Mac.
- Bug fixes and polish: Finally, we found and fixed a lot of small bugs and did a lot of polishing here and there
We've been working hard on this update and hope you enjoy it!
- The whole Porcelain Fortress Team

What this update has is Regions in online play! You can choose from Asia Pacific, Europe, North-America and South-America. We really hope that this w…
