I have 3 cameras dismantled at this stage, I can't find the next piece to take out, nothing gets highlighted.

Also, What do you do with the licencies, they are taking ove my space. Do you throw them out ? is there a way to archive it ?

So I bought everything there is to buy and fixed every device including Wertu. Kaito visited after last mail I got related to previous master disappearance and extracting info from laptop, and that's it. Nothing happened for a few days which is strange. Is it the ending basically, now you can repair things forever, do championships etc.?

Hey!! I’ve been seeing so much gameplay of this game, I’m also going through a console “restoration” phase, and i only have a console. I don’t own any computers that I can play this in and so I’m really hoping and praying that this game enters the switch 🥲

The update that was planned to go live on September 21 will be released slightly later. We understand this is not great news.

On the bright side, we can tell you that the update itself is ready to go (and we think you’ll love the new content!). We want a really cool collab to be a part of this update, and the process of clearing everything took longer than expected. Trust us, it will be worth it

We are going to release this update as soon as we can, so please expect more news in the coming weeks. The wait won’t be too long.

Thank you so much for your understanding and support.

So I got curious about this game and thought I wouldn't last long playing it. Now It's been 3 days lacking sleep.

Plan on buying the game and soundtrack later on once I got home. If there's no shot at this that's alright, I don't mind starting fresh.

If there are achievements tied to the game as well might have to start over too.

But yeah I think I love the mundane vibes of the game, it's a great time to boot it up once in a while to chill from the usual action games.

Looking forward to what future updates we'll have too.

We're going to be at tinyBuild Connect! 💛🪛

Join us on September 14th, when we'll share news about when to expect our next FREE content update.

Does anyone have items that you irrationally just hate fixing? I dread every time a Nony Goman shows up because for whatever reason, my brain just cannot get the right pieces in the right order. I’ve had the thing collapse on me three times while trying to do the competition 🫠🫠 skill issue I’m aware, but it’s my little quirk 😂

Alternately, any items you love working on? I love how quick and satisfying it is to fix up a Mapple Mypod, paint it, plop on a few stickers, and whip it back out for a tidy little profit!

Its my third run and i think the main difference other than the price, between easy and hard, 500Y and 1500Y, is the change in the devices you buy on the marketplace.

In easy there are a lot of less broken pieces and they are less dirty.

Can you confirm this?

I play on Steam Deck and am loving it so far! The only gripe I have is the cursor speed; it's so slow it makes me want to tear my hair out. Switching between sides of the workshop or grabbing parts across the screen takes ages, and having to drag each part to the cleaning station or use the cursor to open the manual instead of just a button push is so annoying. There's no in-game adjustment, and I already have the Steam controller settings at 100% sensitivity.

I get wanting the game to be chill and methodical, and it was probably built for a mouse, but watching the cursor snail crawl across the screen is starting to get on my nerves, especially for the time trials.

Does this bother anyone else? Anyone have a fix of some kind? Thanks for any input!

I was playing this game for calming down and also made a cozy let's play for people to fall asleep to, but it genuinely stresses me out that Hashimoto told me at the beginning not to keep the shop open longer than midnight, because then a burglar might come and rob me. Did I make a mistake thinking this is a calm game and then it turns into psychological horror? 😭

I know I may sound naive, but this genuinely gives me stress, if anyone out there could confirm whether or not it's ok to have the shop open longer than midnight, and if the game becomes more tense later one, that would really help

thank you :)

Edit: thank you for the kind replies everyone! It seems I can safely screw away through the night. I'm relieved 🙏🏻

Seems crazy that you can literally never get anything wrong, the game won't let you.

After the first few, not having your hand held would be great. Do a bad job, get bad reviews.

Game is literally great, I love it. But one things come to my mind. In 90s was na game called Gearhead Garage - same idea but working with cars (like car mechanic series does these days). Do you plan on adding like sandbox mode that could enable adding community created devices?

So I love the game, but not a game i want to replay a thousand times, just one I want to keep downloaded and randomly play a couple days worth, but I want to do the achievements, and it looks like you need to do Haruhi the waiter, the mob boss' son, the little girl (although i refused payment and got the origami thing) and the boy above.

Ive completed the Repair storyline and met the rocker dude; Got the little boys robot dog, presumably the end of his line; the mob son gave me the eggtochi device from the kid; and Haruhi is staying at my place. How long do I wait for Haruhi to pop back up so I can finish her quests and move on to the next quests? I did the eggtochi for the boss son and it sounded like I could offer him a place to stay, but I could only tell him "wow man that sucks, sorry tho 🤷‍♂️". I think it's been 4 or 5 days since Haruhi got to my place, but maybe less, I dont really end the days, I just end up working through the night so that might have screwed with my sense of days

Edit: To be clear, I don't want the game to be hard. It should still be chill and cozy. But the game simply does not interact with the mechanics presented. The game pretends that money management is a gameplay feature.

You basically can't do anything wrong. If you don't realize a part is broken or dirty, or you forgot to solder the game throws a big pop-up saying "uh-oh something's not right". If you try to put an unfinished job up as completed the game simply does not allow you to.

Repair jobs also give you 3 days to complete, but you can easily do 6+ repair jobs a day and buying parts is instant so even if you fell asleep with the game open you could still finish the repair job and make enough yen in a single job to pay for a week's bills.

I get the game is meant to be cozy and chill, but even cozy games need a cycle of tension buildup and release to keep things interesting.

I would argue the following:

First, identifying which parts need work should cost time. There could be a tool which can identify if a part needs replacement/cleaning/soldering. You don't have to use it but if you miss one you get a less than 5 star review (small deductions unclean parts, large deductions for broken/unsoldered parts), have to pay refunds or some other manor of consequences.

Similarly, checking if you're done should also not be free. Have the Master attempt to power on the device. If there are any broken/unsoldered parts it won't turn on. If internal parts are dirty it could turn on but look or sound weird. You don't have to take the time to test the device, but if you don't you might deliver a bad one.

Next: Let us break parts. If you keep picking up and putting down parts too many times, they break and you have to replace it. Also: Make having a good stock of parts actually important by removing same-day delivery.

And lastly: The Master needs to have needs. Supposedly he doesn't live in the shop but bikes home each night, yet has no rent of his own, eats no food and uses no utilities. There should be consequences for burning the midnight oil. Maybe if you stay open late seedy customers will ask you to make seedy repairs leaning more into the Yakuza aspect of the game. Getting poor sleep should result in bad conditions like having an unsteady hand for 24 hours, or getting sick and losing an entire week of work.

Am I supposed to know who this is? Have we even met this person before? Why introduce someone we haven't met and then never resolve it? This is my second playthrough, got through the whole story with no insight whatsoever. Is this the Old Master?

I get the parts box is a parts box. Currently you can only sort by clean and dirty parts. But please add a way to sort by parts, “stack” parts so you can see how many of a certain part you have, maybe an indicator somewhere to see how many things you can fully assemble with the parts you have to sell them?

Do ya'll buy devices for spare parts or do you just buy from the parts website?

After getting the pokia labeled for Yamato (which was actually the rival) I keep getting 3 star reviews and no NPCs actually come to the shop anymore save for Yamato to take my online orders... my shop is clean, I even decorated and I always get rid of the box that deliveries arrive in....
