If you use a screen reader or know someone who does, we'd love to chat with them too. I'd like to add screen reader support to Starbrew Station and happy to provide a beta key! #accessibility #screenReader #indieGameDev

Big thanks to our playtesters today!!

big thanks to one of our beta testers who helped get touch support working as expected on iPad/iPhone/Steam Deck!

we're enabling it as an accessibility option and working on sound attenuation and camera shake controls to make Starbrew Station even more accessible

Steam achievements are great, but how do you tie them in in-game?

In Starbrew Station, now you get a reminder to claim achievements in a dedicated in-game window.

The icons flash into color when you claim them with a coffee bonus!

Ragdolling them after exploding would also be so choice.

I just added steam achievements to my space station clicker game “Starbrew Station”, as well as a little awards window in the game, where you can claim rewards for unlocking the achievements. Adding the icons in-game today!

Don’t worry they’ll come back to visit in playtesting, and then again in first public demo.
