UPDATE 1.0.0

Hello everyone, after more than a year in early access, we are happy to say that we finally reached a point where we implemented all planned features, and we are satisfied enough to call the game “1.0” in its current state. This is not a big update in itself, but it is a huge milestone we reached after many hours of work, thanks to your previous feedback.

For any returning, or simply curious new player, we prepared a big recap that summarize all additions and changes since the initial release in July 2024 :

We also prepared a post regarding the future plans of our team. We made a quick announcement that rapidly mentioned this, but there was a lot of misunderstanding, so we are making a detailed post with all the information you need :

SUMMARY

• LOCALIZATION
• VISUAL AND SOUND OVERHAULS

MUSEUM

There now is a museum in the lobby area, featuring a proper tribute to the Kickstarter contributors, a rapid presentation of our dev team, and a section dedicated to the community, including contest winners, streamers and more ! (That last part is currently very empty but will be updated over time).

LOCALIZATION

Added support for several languages ! On the first game launch (after the update), it should automatically set to your Steam language if available. You can change the language at any moment in your settings.

The Steam page has also been updated accordingly. Languages include : 

• English

VISUALS AND SOUNDS OVERHAULS

Many pizzushi related items got a visual overall, which include unique model per plant topping, new order menu and plate, new design with animations for the fish dispenser and new sounds for the rice dispenser !

The tablet received a new design and interface, including shortcuts to various menus and tutorials for the basics.
We also updated the minimap to fit the map changes that happened over the game development !

Slightly changed the Power and Pressure panels to remove unnecessary text.

The container received a new animation when gathering plants.



STEAM CARDS, BADGES AND MORE

Added Steam cards and badges support to LOCKDOWN Protocol, allowing you to earn Steam level and cool profile background and emoticons !

Steam emoticons, animated avatar, avatar profile frame and profile backgrounds by cocorhi !
Steam cards by Pixelorei !



BETA BRANCH

Now that the game is officially in 1.0.0, we are adding a public beta branch to ensure new features are mostly bug free on the main game.
You can access it on Steam by right clicking the game > Properties… > Betas > Beta Participation > select “PUBLIC BETA”.



OTHER

All players settings have been reset, to welcome a new cleaner save system.

Ajusted the PC task visually to be a bit more comprehensive, and easier on our side, to translate.

Added a visual indicator for playing being in their pause menu. With the removal of many features from the tablet, it became necessary to tell what a player is doing.

Banned 41 more cheaters.



BUG FIXES

Fixed ghosts light not pulsing when a player speaks.

Fixed Cleo square patch being named “Default”.

Fixed the unintended ability to make “dummy” samples from rice containers in the sample machine.

Fixed Pizzushi having collisions in the player's hands, which turned them into unintentional riot shields (I love riot shields but this is not what Pizzushi are meant to be).

Fixed ESC key not being registered correctly to close the menu after using a text box.

Fixed the “quit tutorial” button in the menu, which used to restart instead.

Fixed multiple sound collisions issues.

Fixed shadow collision on character to better interact with the charm lighting.
