Paradise Beach Simulator - Maenora
Hi everyone,

Here’s the new content included in this update 0.2 (currently in beta)!

Nightclub and bar



Nighttime now offers a new gameplay phase for customers with more specific desires: having a drink, and dancing for hours!

At level 3, an additional objective will appear to guide you.

The nightclub lights up in the evening — all you have to do is prepare your best cocktails to serve at the bar. Your customers will take a seat and tell you what they want; serve them their order like a true bartender.

💡 You can add your own music into the game! To do so, stand in front of the jukebox, stereo system, or nightclub, and press "G". This will automatically open the folder where you can drop your music files.

Ferry management
From now on, you decide how many ferries arrive at your island. In the new “ferries” tab on the computer, check or uncheck the schedules you prefer and organize your day however you want.
On older save files, you may see empty ferries during the first two days, but this should resolve itself by the third day. If the problem persists, please feel free to contact us!

Decoration

Trees and clusters of lush rocks to give your island a natural and tropical touch. These decorations are unlockable from level 4 to 10!



(From now on, when you start a new game, we’ve added a few of these decorations for free on the island. These don’t give any hype points. To add new ones, you’ll need to unlock levels and purchase them in the shop.)

Little by little, new styles and colors:




+ 1 color for the square restaurant table (beige wood)
+ 1 round restaurant table with two different colors (white wood, orange wood)
+ 7 colors for floors and pergola (fences coming soon!)

💡 To change the style, stand in front of the object and press "F"

  • Customers sleeping in yellow and blue bungalows were incorrectly placed,
  • After saving, sleeping customers could still have their request bubble visible,
