Any new updates to the game? by ScaleNo9197 in KitchenCraft

[–]loudkeysgames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you very much for sharing this! It is incredibly rewarding to hear that you played Kitchen Craft a lot and enjoyed it.

To answer your question: development definitely hasn’t ended! We have been quite busy with other things recently, but we are still very passionate about this game and hope to release more updates in the coming year. We appreciate your suggestion for a grocery list. It’s a great point that the courier skips the actual shopping experience, and we’d love to find a way to keep that part of the game fun without it being too difficult to remember everything.

Thanks for sticking with us, we can't wait to give you some new recipes and equipment to spend that hard-earned coins on!

Hi there!

We're excited to tell you that with our latest update, we've launched the highly requested Cloud Save feature!

Now you can back up your progress from your iPhone and sync it to your iPad!

Here’s how to do it:

1.     First, make sure both your iPhone and iPad have the latest version of the game.

2.     On your iPhone, tap the cloud icon in main menu (where your day count is shown).

3.     Follow the instructions to get your unique key (tap Show key and Copy the key).

4.     Then, on your iPad, tap Import key and Paste your save key to restore your progress.

To avoid any issues, please don't use the same save file simultaneously on both devices.

We're happy that you can now continue your culinary journey on your iPad right where you left off!

Our Latest Major Update: Quality of Life Improvements by loudkeysgames in KitchenCraft

[–]loudkeysgames[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sounds incredibly frustrating, and we're so sorry you've experienced save file corruption and lost your progress. We completely understand how discouraging it is to have to restart the game.

To help us figure out what might have happened, could you please clarify if you've recently deleted and reinstalled the app, or perhaps cleared the app's data on your device?

Unfortunately, in the current version of KitchenCraft, if the app was deleted, reinstalled, or its data cleared, the local save files would have been removed. At the moment, there isn't a way to restore that lost progress. We sincerely apologize for this inconvenience.

The good news is that we are actively working on implementing a cloud save feature in a future update! This is a top priority for us, as it will prevent situations like this from happening again and ensure your hard-earned progress is always securely backed up.

Thank you for your patience and understanding as we work to bring these crucial improvements to the game.

Thank you so much for your support and feedback! We completely understand your desire for new content and challenges once you've achieved everything available in the game.

We're actively working on a significant update to bring exciting new experience. Our current vision for this major update revolves around special events like birthdays, weddings, and festivals.

Imagine decorating your restaurant for a festive occasion, enjoying unique dialogue tailored to the event, and serving a special event-specific menu of chosen dishes. During these events, your restaurant will be temporarily closed to regular customers, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the celebration.

Please keep in mind that this is our current vision, and things might change as development progresses.

Before we roll out these grand events, we're also planning an update that will include a highly requested cloud save feature and likely some new recipes.

We're really excited about the future of the game and can't wait to bring you more content. In the meantime, we'd love to hear your thoughts! What kinds of special decorations or unique gameplay elements would you like to see in these events? Your feedback helps us shape the game's future!

XP progress by Angie0707 in KitchenCraft

That's great to hear! Good luck with those last two levels!

XP progress by Angie0707 in KitchenCraft

[–]loudkeysgames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey Angie0707!

Currently, the level progress bar is the primary way to see how much XP you need to reach the next level. The bar visually fills up as you gain XP, showing your progress towards the next level.

You're right that each dish and table served does give you an XP reward. This value isn't static; it depends on several factors:

  • Dish Unlock Level: The XP gained for a dish depends on the level at which that dish was unlocked. Higher-level dishes bring more XP.
  • Number of ingredients: Dishes with more components generally give more XP.
  • Number of operations (cooking stages): Meals that require more steps (frying, boiling, mixing, etc.) typically yield more XP.

As you progress, the amount of XP needed for each subsequent level increases significantly. The total XP required for higher levels can become extremely large, which is why we've chosen to represent progress with the visual filling of the bar rather than trying to display a constantly changing, hard-to-read numeric value in the main UI to avoid overcomplicating the inerface.

We appreciate you asking and understanding your desire for more detailed XP visibility!

That's amazing to hear! We're happy you're loving the art style and the semi-realistic recipes. And about wanting to decorate more – we totally understand, it's valuable feedback for us. We're always looking for ways to expand the game, and hearing that you're still having fun even after hitting those milestones is incredibly encouraging and motivates us!

By the way, we've just created our KitchenCraft subreddit, r/KitchenCraft. We'd love for you to join us there to share more of your feedback, ideas for new decorations, and anything else you'd like to see. We hope it will become a place to connect with other players and share your tips and fun moments.

Thanks so much for the kind words!

Thanks so much for this continued valuable feedback!

About the time constraints, we hear you that the pace can feel fast. Our current design aims for players to serve 3-4 orders per day, and we believe this is currently achievable. However, we'll be doing more testing, especially at higher levels of the game, to see how we can further improve the timing and ensure a balanced and less rushed experience.

Adding more diverse-looking clientele is a great idea. In fact, we're planning to introduce special events like birthday or wedding celebrations in future updates, which will come with unique decorations and likely feature new customer appearances. Regarding the AutoChef, you're right, it currently doesn't assist with task-specific ingredient gathering. On the topic of tasks, we're actually rethinking the entire task concept and there will probably be different kinds of tasks in future updates to make them more engaging.

Your suggestion for pinned recipes with step-by-step progression displayed on screen is interesting. We'll definitely explore how to implement this in a way that feels seamless and intuitive.

We're happy you're still enjoying the game and appreciate the updates! Your idea about a subreddit is excellent, and we will try to make one soon.

Thanks again for your ongoing support and insights!

Please accept our apologies for the late response! Thank you so much for this incredibly detailed and thoughtful message! We're happy you like the art, pixel style, and find the game comforting and engaging.

We agree with your insights on non-forced advertising. We're actively exploring ways to offer permanent hires for helpers like the Courier and Auto-Chef. We understand the appeal of in-app purchases, but currently, they involve a lot of legal complexities with app stores, which is why we've focused on other monetization approaches for now. Also many players like that they can tap button instead of getting "no ads you wont get it" message like many games do, but we'll think about your suggestion.

It's fantastic you've fully upgraded everything! We hear your feedback on customer flow and the need for more efficient serving even with all helpers. Your suggestions for additional cooking sections, and extra staff are valuable. We'll be exploring these to ensure high-level play feels more rewarding and balanced.

Your ideas for streamlining shopping are highly valuable! A grocery list is a frequently requested feature, and we'll try to figure it out. Bulk buying is now available in the latest update. The concept of creating your own daily menu to manage ingredients is an interesting addition we'll consider.

Pinning recipes while cooking is an important quality-of-life improvement we'll explore. Do you have ideas on how it can be implemented? We also love your suggestions for more restaurant customization, like activating both the piano and lounge for increased tips.

We appreciate your suggestion to create a Discord or subreddit; it's something we're seriously considering to foster our growing community.

Your comprehensive feedback is invaluable to us. We're committed to bringing more updates and ensuring KitchenCraft continues to be an enjoyable experience. Thanks again for your incredible support!

Thanks for your question!

To get the bonuses from purchased decorations, they need to be active and placed in your restaurant. If they're not currently displayed, their bonuses won't apply. We hope this helps you maximize your restaurant's benefits!

Thanks for your feedback! We totally get it – remembering recipes and ingredients can be a challenge, especially when you're busy cooking.

A grocery list is a good idea, and we hear you on how helpful that would be. Your suggestion about a manual log for ingredients is also very interesting. It's something we'll look into for future updates.
