Update 5

[neoludic games]

Hi everyone, it’s now officially 7 days since Tiny Bookshop released, and finally, after tackling the most serious bugs, we found some time to take care of more UX and feedback.

• Adjusted/Fixed Maryam’s recommendation quest at the café not saving the progress consistently.
  
• Increased rain chance in spring slightly.
  
• Inspiring Klaus now counts anywhere, and not just at the supermarket.
  
• Adjusted Historic Tag. Changed it from “Written about the past” to “meeting a need of immersing yourself in the past”.
  
• Nerfed Professor Quest to make it less frustrating.
  
• Made cases visible and visually distinct to help you identify which one is currently active.
  
• Removed a dialogue gamepad deselection, that would lead to having to re-select dialogue.
  
• Made Play and Long mutually exclusive, as plays don’t tend to be over 450 pages.
  
• Added a bail-out book box, in case you are out of money and out of books.
  
• Adjusted the gardening fundraiser so it doesn’t keep subtracting money after the quest is completed.
  
• Fixed snow at Park.
  
• Fixed Nightmare Fuel-Effect never disappearing.
  
• Adjusted spacing of location genres in the journal to avoid overlaps.
  
• Improved the UX of colouring your bookshop.
  
• Made Spoiled Fish only placeable in one slot at a time, to avoid accidental smells.
  
• Fixed wildlife-board being obstructed at the fish-market.
  
• Made the Antique Lantern slightly stronger.
  
• Fixed a glitching shadow at the Café.
  
• Made rain a little more likely in spring.

Known Issue:

Steam Cloud is still disabled, until we can figure out a way to test it safely. We are in contact with Steam Support! 🙏🙏🙏

Weekend:

We’ll be taking this weekend off, after having worked through the last one. So I hope you’ll understand that we’ll try not to respond during this weekend.

Next week is also Gamescom, where we will have a booth in the Indie Arena! We’ll still try to find time to respond to your questions, and fix urgent bugs if there are any, but communications might be a bit slower next week, as our 5-person-team has to staff the booth, too. If you are at Gamescom, make sure to come by for merch and a chat ♥️

The First Week:

This last week has been a blur for us. We never imagined that this many people would pick up our game! We are simply blown-away and exceptionally thankful for your support and passion for the game, and the kindness and positivity you bring to every conversation we had with you. We are lucky to have made a game for such a wonderful community! ♥️

As always, here is the link to the previous patch notes: https://steamcommunity.com/app/2133760/discussions/0/601912361526467372/

Have a wonderful weekend, and please get some rest in! You've done an amazing job and I'm so grateful to see the game flourish and fixes come for the errors that come up. Thank you!

My save file is gone after latest update

[Dartedrose]

I absolutely adore this game. However, after the most recent update (5), my save data is gone. Is there anything that can fix it or should I start a new game file? Thank you!

[Nicoke14]

My save file is gone. Please advise.

For those playing on the Steam Deck, this was posted on their Discord. It worked for me and I was able to get my most recent save back.

Solution for disappearing Steam Deck saves after Update 5:

The game is saving in a different location than it was before. Your old saves still exist, the game just can't see them. The new save location is `~/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/2133760/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/LocalLow/neoludic games/Tiny Bookshop`

You can copy your original Tiny Bookshop folder from `~/.config/unity3d/neoludic games/Tiny Bookshop` to this location and then start the game and your save should be back!

I lost my saved game completely, when I started the game anew today. I played last on the 15th around midnight. And I cannot find the saved file anywhere on my computer files. Hope there will be a new update which solves this?

Enjoy the weekend, and have a blast at Gamescom!

I wasn't sure where to report a typo, but in the description for The Lost Symbol, it has Robert Langdon's name as Robert Langdom. I'm at the Cafe Liberte during Winter if that matters.

Hey! just wanted to notify you guys of a small typo: "Grumbeling" sailors rather than Grumbling :) when you don't have enough boat accessories at the fish market.
