Hubble Bubble · published · build 26314595

Coming Soon

  • New upgrade system

New

  • Tea: Brew tea at the new tea stand. Put a plate under the urn, set a glass on it and open the tap. Sugar and a spoon jump in by themselves. Customers order it from day 1.
  • New Emotes: Chicken, Belly, Gangnam, Hip Hop and Happy Feet.
  • Reduce Motion: A new Display setting that keeps the camera steady: no head bob, sway or shake.
  • New Achievements: Tea Master and Mop Star.

Sound and Visuals

  • Cash confetti: bills burst out when you get paid.
  • Tea sounds: the tap, the pour and a little chime for sugar and spoon.
  • Ragdolls flop more naturally when someone gets knocked down.
  • A NO SMOKING sign now hangs above the coal machine. Nobody reads it.

Gameplay Changes

  • The shop terminal is easier to read: drinks on the left, hookah and food on the right, one buy button per row and RESTOCK ALL.
  • Station upgrades cost 25% less.
  • Hookah Buzz is now called SMOKING EFFECTS and explains what it does.
  • Lower default mouse sensitivity. If you already picked your own, it stays.

Fixes

  • Fixed short freezes the first time a sound played, like the espresso machine or the tap.
  • Fixed a freeze when the gravity generator went down for the first time.
  • The lobby runs much smoother: about 50% more frames per second on our test PC.
  • The loading screen now waits until everything is ready, so you no longer arrive in a stuttering room.
  • Customers find their way to the VIP seats, blackjack table and aquarium again.
  • Puke puddles at upper floor tables now sit on the floor.
  • The character in the emote wheel no longer leaves trails on Low and Medium graphics.
