  1.3

  It's been a while... This update has been on the backburner for quite some time, now that I'm unemployed again, it's probably a good time to put it out (alongside the Spring sale) It includes many community requests and bug fixes. I've been scouring the reviews and discussions and picked out things that would fit into a medium-sized update/patch. The biggest thing is probably achievements! Finally. There are 20 achievements for you to unlock; I tried to make them fun, let me know if there's any problems unlocking any of them. While right now, I don't have any future plans for Dishwashing Simulator updates / content, they may or may not happen later, kind of like this update. I don't do promises for game updates anymore (I have a bad reputation.) I've read all the various requests and critiques of the game, and I agree (for the most part, the parkour is peak and you can't change my mind) I'd love to fix and change so many things, but it probably won't happen; I consider the game "done." So any updates will be pretty similar to this one. Hopefully you stick around for my next games! If you want to stay updated, join the Discord: https://discord.gg/frinky And checkout my website: https://frinky.org/ Patch Notes Added Flashlight now acts like an upgrade, equip it, and then toggle with "T" hands-free Hint system to provide valuable info that can't quite be communicated diegetically 20 Achievements for you to unlock Trophy item, costs 15k, something big to aim for. Zoom feature: Hold middle mouse while using a computer to zoom closer to the text. UI Scale setting to increase the scale of text and images. Changed Updated the Research Table's description to be more accurate Book UI overhaul / font change Internet browser now displays a warning that it is indeed a real browser Waking up will now bump low stats (Health, Food, Water) up to at least 20% (Enough to avoid a soft lock) Conveyor walls can now be toggled on or off Increased rate of hostile encounters. The Jester now...

  1.2

  UPDATE Hello Dishwashers, sorry for the wait! As mentioned previously, I've been busy with full time work and have been getting into the rhythm. While there's no content in this patch, it should address some of the more egregious issues. If you find any major issues/oversights, join the discord and ping me (link is on the main menu) and send me your save file. (win + r > appdata > enter > /local > /DWS) Old saves may have a few issues with the fixes relating to farming plots, just replace them! FIXES fixed double wakeup bug fixed bug the caused crops to not disappear when deconstructing plot (existing plots may have some issues, just replace them) applied a few potential fixes to a bug where items would not get saved (tentative, please let me know) more changes/fixes to physics stability (this is an ongoing battle lol) CHANGES adjustments to crates collision to help with the mythic flipping crate issue ADDED added option for mouse smoothing added option for inverting mouse (x and y) added conveyers belt side blockers

  Save File Corruption Issue / General News

  Hello! Save File Corruption I've heard reports of save files becoming corrupted during power outages or power surges. While I investigate the causes, I've added a page to my website detailing how to delete your save file: https://www.frinky.games/dishsave Future Plans I'll be releasing a stability update in the next week or so, which should address some of the major issues. I've been extremely busy with full-time work, so I've taken a few weeks off. At this point, we don't have any plans for major content or reworks. However, who knows? Perhaps, if I find the time, I might add something. No promises though; I have a bad track record of not delivering on update plans... lol (sorry Chaos fans, that update is never coming out.) Thank you for your support of the game; it's more than we expected. It's not perfect, but I've learned a great deal from your feedback on how to improve my design, story, and pacing for the future. I've also enjoyed reading your comments and reviews and watching your videos. - Frinky
