Hello, my friends!
Thank you so much for being here - your support means the world to me.

I originally had bigger plans for this update, but the last week has been mentally rough for me. A family member ended up in the hospital, so I had less time and honestly struggled a lot with focus. Things are stable now, thankfully, but this was a good reminder to tell you all: please take care of your health.
Anyway, without getting too cliché - the restaurant will definitely get an expansion. The original idea was to open something special in the back area because of its low profitability, and that’s still coming.
Visually, the graphical updates turned out great, the game looks so much better now. However, you’ll notice that in the restaurant, I used a slightly different method for displaying character avatars. They’re square, while the navigation tiles are rectangular. It looks fine when they align in one row, but when there are two, things start to shift around. I’m considering reworking the entire game so that characters appear as circular icons above the navigation tiles instead. It would require a massive amount of reworking, but the end result could be really nice. Let me know what you think!
I'm already finishing work on condemned bunker v0.05, so it should be available today or tomorrow.
