Hello everyone! Today I released a new update for Tavern Master which includes 5 new tavern games and various bug fixes :)
Tavern games are unlocked late in the research tree and they represent a new way of making money. There are 5 games, each with unique animations and sound effects and a game counter where customers can rent props needed to play games. It's also possible to set a price for each game type which will affect how many people are interested in playing those games. You can experiment with those numbers and find a sweet spot where games are not too cheap so too many customers want to play them and counter worker cannot serve everyone, and that they are not too expensive so no customer wants to play them :) Here is a gif of one of the games - archery
Besides tavern games, I did a few very requested features. First one is that chefs will not start preparing food if it's too late which means that ingredients and food are much less wasted. Benches and tables can now also be placed inside hotel rooms, but they will not be used by regular customers of course
Below you can read the full list of bugs fixed and some other improvements: - On hard difficulty customers are much less patient - Food at 5 stars is less expensive so game is more balanced late game - Prices for walls now turn red if you don't have enough coins - Added floor number in top right corner - Added new setting to lower crowd volume - Games and hotel now have a number next to them in summary popup which represents number of customers that used games or hotel rooms - Elite staff now gets a second trait when hired - After fire adventurers now come into the tavern properly - If an item which you are moving is overlapping with any wall, it turns red completely so it's more clear

This is it for this update and I expect to release the next one in late June or first half of July. That update will not have new mechanics, but it will have much new content. I plan on adding new quests, new quest rewards, new wall paints, new floor types, new achievements, more decorations, chandeliers and some other things :) You can see the preview of chandeliers below
Here again a small progress-update about Rokatusch. Notice: Since the workers are controlled by AI (Artificial intelligence / Computer player), there are some delays between the actions (Running, cutting trees and building buildings),
What's going on?
I updated the building process. Grass and other environment details (Stones, flowers, ...) at building will be removed from now on. Food production building was added too.
What's next?
I will work on the resources logic next.
How does grass removing work in Unity
// Removes details of terrain [layer] at [position] for size [halfExtendWorld] (Half extended quad in world size)
private static void RemoveMapDetails(Terrain terrain, Vector3 position, float halfExtendWorld, int layer = 0)
{
var detailWidth = terrain.terrainData.detailWidth;
var halfDetailWidth = detailWidth / 2f;
var factor = detailWidth / terrain.terrainData.size.x; // Calc factor for detail map resolution
var targetX = (int)Math.Round((position.x * factor) + halfDetailWidth, 0, MidpointRounding.AwayFromZero);
var targetZ = (int)Math.Round((position.z * factor) + halfDetailWidth, 0, MidpointRounding.AwayFromZero);
var halfExtend = (int)Math.Round(halfExtendWorld * factor, 0, MidpointRounding.AwayFromZero);
var startX = targetX - halfExtend;
var startZ = targetZ - halfExtend;
var map = GetMapData(terrain, layer);
var maxZ = map.GetLength(0);
var maxX = map.GetLength(1);
for (var z = startZ; z <= targetZ + halfExtend; z++)
{
for (var x = startX; x <= targetX + halfExtend; x++)
{
if (z < 0 || x < 0)
{
continue;
}
if (z >= maxZ || x >= maxX)
{
continue;
}
map[z, x] = 0;
}
}
SetMapData(terrain, map, layer);
}
private static int[,] GetMapData(Terrain terrain, int layer)
{
return terrain.terrainData.GetDetailLayer(
0,
0,
terrain.terrainData.detailWidth,
terrain.terrainData.detailHeight,
layer);
}
private static void SetMapData(Terrain terrain, int[,] mapData, int layer)
{
terrain.terrainData.SetDetailLayer(0, 0, layer, mapData);
}

We just realized that we haven't published any news updates since v1.0.5 and we are now on v1.2.2 😱
During the last months we've added new content, released Total Arcade Racing on Xbox and started on the PlayStation port. We have also started on our next game project, Alienstein. We are still planning to add more courses and possible cars in the future but releases will be less frequent.
Latest updates
New course - Triple Cross A course designed by one of our players where the course loops over the main path 3 times causing a lot of crashes and action.
New course - Tropical Asphalt A course which is 50% asphalt and 50% dirt road, which is awesome for the new Buggy car.
New car - Buggy A new car with fast acceleration and great performance both on-road and off-road.
New championship - Crossy Cup A new championship set in mostly urban courses.
Feedback
Keep the feedback coming either through the Steam forums or drop by our Discord Server to have a chat with us and the community.
