Hello Detectives! We've released Coffee Noir on September 30th and over the past 2 months we've been reading your posts and reviews, watching your gameplay videos and streams.

In today's post we'll be looking at the latest changes in Coffee Noir and the future that lays ahead.

Ever wondered who is responsible for the visual overhaul of the new edition of Coffee Noir? Meet Ola - our marvelous artist, who made numerous illustrations, animations and majority the UI visuals! We wonder how many cups of coffee she drank during this whole time? You can see an example of her fantastic work here. See more artwork from Coffee Noir at Twitter, Facebook and Discord.

Hello Detectives! We have just updated the game build adding few improvements and fixing minor bugs: Patch notes: Changes in confirmation screen when new chapter is available. Now it differs way more from the next week confirmation screen. The consequences of moving to the next chapter of the story are much more highlighted. It is now possible to exit to the game menu during the tutorial. Previously if you wanted to exit the game while tutorial was on, you have to permanently skip it. Now, during the tutorial you can always display small pop-up game menu by hitting ESC, and go back to the titl

This is the day! Coffee Noir is now available for purchase. We'd like to thank everyone who supported us during the game's development. Your support and excitement for Coffee Noir helped us so much! We'd also like to thank the entire team, who's been working on the game! If it wasn't for this team of top detectives, we wouldn't be celebrating the release today. Welcome to Neo-London, enjoy your stay, but prepare yourself for a hard to solve mystery!

It’s made of three sections: clues, characters and connections graph. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/32765406/088176301ff1a34056fd91b10c8b2670fa5e573e.jpg In the clues section, there’s a list of all clues collected at a given point that needs to be connected with other information gathered during your investigation.

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/32765406/a36bf024c2eb2d9d6f588bf176a09cb058d09a44.png It's time for some demo update, right? If you're wondering how Coffee Noir's gameplay feels - try out the new demo! It shortly shows the improved flow and other upgrades we've managed to prepare before the official launch. But remember - it's the mere beginning of the investigation case, so it might seem simple and cheerful - but we can promise that we've prepared quite a bumpy road for Arthur Oliver in the full version! Sorry, not sorry - the private detective life can't be too easy! For now - Joseph invites you for a ne

No worries, manual saves go you covered! It's like a time machine, but Arthur is not really aware, so you can save and reverse time as many as you want. No one's judging, if it's all for the good of the investigation, after all.

Coffee Noir has been through a much longer journey than we had initially planned. It started as a game to teach economics at universities, purely serious game with educational purpose. As it turned out it’s a really enjoyable tool, the team started thinking about making it a product for the general public. We began to develop the detective storyline. Before, it was only a background, just some context to show the economics. It evolved into a rich noir crime visual no

Someone has to hear about them, right? That’s where the Marketing UI comes in. In Marketing, you will select campaigns to try to get specific people’s attention. Coffee preferences depend on their age, social status and type of work. Let’s see how to use that to your advantage. To the left, you have a list of products you have. Each of the products has two numbers, basic demand and campaign effect. Basic demand is the number of cof

In the Management UI you have five columns for five types of tasks. Tasks appear in them w

What if you forget about something told in the story, need a refresh after a break in playing, or simply want to replay a comic or rewatch a cutscene? In your office, you have a comic bank where you can see all comics and scenes you’ve already revelead during story part of Coffee Noir. To the left, you can click on a file with comics, to the right there’s a film spool with the scenes. After choosing either of them, there's a list of available content. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/32765406/35754bb8ca3c63346dafdd1de08f6cfb793ec46d.jpg Preview of available comics {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/32765406/7ce6163262f0415

To provide your contractors with enough coffee and the type they prefer, you need to produce enough of it. That's what the Production UI is for. Here, you can control the production, storage and upgrades. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/32765406/ee4156a97399370a4663181aeb8d14cf9ddaacae.png Which coffee and how much? The switches and sliders to the left are for the coffee types: classic, espresso and cappuccino. Here you can see the brand level, production, stack and client demand for each of the types. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/32765406/555f8d5d3b56cf8cb05af21220d456d32509869a.png The brand level can be standard,
