We're so excited to release this update, which DOUBLES if not TRIPLES the amount of content in the game!

Game Over :
-
Added Rent to the game
We've re-added the game over screen, now you'll have to pay rent at the end of each day. As you get upgrades, your rent will slowly increase! Failure to pay your rent at the end of the day, will result in a game over!
Rent Values :- Base Café : $25
- Upgrade 1 : $30
- Upgrade 2 : $35
- Upgrade 3 : $45
Café Menu :
- Upon unlocking the first shop upgrade, you will now unlock a new sign that'll be over the counters, upon interacting with it, the player will be able to change what customers can order!
Save/Load System | 2.0 :
With this update we've overhauled the entire saving and loading system from the ground up! With 2.0 of the save system, we've cut back on saving and loading times massively, however, this means that saves from 0.1.2 and back will no longer work. However, we're hoping this will be the last time we have to overhaul the save/load system for a long time!
Examples :
Early Game :
Saving | 15s to 30s -> 5s to 10s
Loading | 30s to 45s -> 5s to 10s
Mid Game :
Saving | 2m to 2m 30s -> 15s to 30s
Loading | 3m 30s to 4m -> 10s to 15s
Late Game :
Saving | 5m to 6m -> 10s to 30s
Loading | 7m to 10m -> 15s -> 25s
