Infos zum Spiel

☕ Leave the city behind. Open a cafe by the river.

Tired of the city grind, you move to a small town named after its river and settle into a run-down house. With patience, a little money and some help from the neighbours, it can become the coziest cafe in the valley. Grow the coffee yourself, learn every step of the craft, and play at your own pace - there are no deadlines.

🌱 What is in the game today

• ☕ From seed to cup. Plant coffee bushes, water them and harvest the cherries, then roast, grind and brew. Every bush gives only a limited number of harvests, so plan your plantation.

• ⚙️ Three machines, three levels. The roaster, the grinder and the coffee machine can be upgraded for bigger batches and quicker work; the top-level coffee machine brews two cups at once.

• 🧾 A cafe with real customers. Guests queue at the counter, order a cup to stay or to go, sit at your tables, leave tips and judge you. Every night you get a summary with their reviews. Keep the tables and the floor clean - or buy a robot vacuum.

• 🔧 Fix the place up. Sergei the handyman repairs the chairs, tables, counter, floors, walls, kitchen and bedroom for money and materials. A shabby cafe scares guests away at the door.

• 🏡 Neighbours with their own business. Kate's shop sells beans, cups, seeds and equipment. Anastasia's workshop sells planks and stone blocks and grows with your donations of wood and stone. Call or text them from your phone.

• 🪓 The street outside. Chop trees, break stones, plant saplings and till the soil with your axe, pickaxe, hoe and watering can.

• ⭐ Level up. Earn reputation and spend skill points on a skill tree with three branches: Trade, Character and Customer Service.

• 🐈 Meet Ostin. A stubborn ginger cat with a story of his own. Pet him, buy him a proper bed, and watch him hitch a ride on the robot vacuum.

• 🌙 A living day. Day and night, a calendar with weekdays, and music that changes with the time of day and the place.

• 

• 🎮 Comfortable to play. English and Russian, three save slots, rebindable keys. Mouse and keyboard only for now.

🚧 Early Access

Caramel Creek is in Early Access. The core loop is playable and the town is already alive, but the game is still growing, and you will meet rough edges and unfinished corners. Your feedback will shape what we build next - see the Early Access section on this page for details.

💭 Not in the game yet

These are ideas we would like to explore. They are not in the game today, and nothing here is a promise: seasons and weather; a mode for decorating and rearranging the cafe and its surroundings; deeper friendships with the townsfolk; the mystery beneath the town.

💛 About Caramel Creek

Caramel Creek is a small, personal project about finding your place and building a home. Pixel art, a warm soundtrack and a quiet town by the river. Inspired by Stardew Valley and Twin Peaks.

Offenlegung von KI-generierten Inhalten

Der Spieleentwickler beschreibt den Einsatz von KI-generierten Inhalten in diesem Spiel wie folgt:

Art: part of the pixel art (object sprites, UI elements, icons, some environment pieces) was created with the help of AI tools that wrote procedural drawing scripts; the developer reviewed and edited the results. Other art (including character portraits, NPC looks and some sprites) was drawn by the developer.

Music: all music tracks were composed and synthesised procedurally by code written with the help of an AI assistant; the developer reviewed and tuned them.

Sound effects: synthesised procedurally by code written with the help of an AI assistant; a few effects come from CC0 libraries.

Localization: the Russian translation was produced with AI assistance.

Live-generated content: none. The game does not use AI while it is running.
