Character Reactions Update is Live!

Hello everyone!

First of all, we want to thank everyone who has played The Brewline, shared feedback with us, and supported us throughout development.

Last month, we gave you the chance to choose the next feature you wanted to see in the game. The winner of the Community Vote was Character Reactions. You asked for it, and we brought it to the game.

With this update, not only new character reactions but also many adjustments and improvements we have been working on across different parts of the game are now available.

Character Reactions

NPCs can now react differently based on the effects of the drinks they consume.

Depending on the effect of the alcohol you produce, your customers’ behavior and reactions will change. This means different recipes and effects will now be reflected not only in production, but also on the characters themselves.

Player Reactions

This system is not limited to NPCs.

The player character will also react differently depending on the effects of the drink they consume. You will now be able to see the effects of drinks on your own character as well.

Other Improvements

  • Improved motorcycle physics and driving controls.

  • Reworked night lighting and visibility.

  • Made various performance and optimization improvements.

  • Fixed many bugs reported by players.

  • Added several quality-of-life improvements to make gameplay smoother.


Once again, thank you to everyone who joined the Community Vote, sent feedback, and contributed to the development of The Brewline.

Your votes directly helped shape this update.

Have fun!
