Latest Steam announcements

• Update 0.10.2.2: better poker, reset option and more - 4 September 2026

  - Poker got more real rules: side pots - an all-in player can no longer win more than they covered (and your excess chips no longer vanish, which sometimes cost you the whole tournament), when everyone is all-in, cards are revealed immediately, minimum raise now equals the previous bet (no more +5 pokes over a 40 bet), starting stacks doubled to keep tournaments the same length. Three-way draws now split the pot instead of burning it. - Also some more poker polish. - The Fortune Teller trait got a real gift: every 2-3 months the cards whisper genuinely useful market info - which sector thrives, which company struggles. Cards are right about two times out of three. And the trait finally respects your Luck setting. - "No luck" mode was tripling bad fortune predictions - now it doubles them, as intended for a mode that merely withholds good luck. - Realtor bonus crash fix and the poker tab…

• Update 0.10.2.1: Better Steam Deck - 30 August 2026

  • Controller + keyboard/mouse now work together: mouse (or Steam Deck touchpad) movement no longer flips button prompts to keyboard — prompts change only on a real press, and follow your pad type (PS/Switch/Xbox) via Steam Input. New "Controls: Auto / Keyboard+Mouse / Gamepad" setting.• With a negative balance the bet slider could go negative - "winning" the final then cost you money (one player got a −¥1.14B prize). Bets now stay valid, prizes are never negative, and the final no longer invites you while you're in the hospital.• Two offers could arrive at once and accepting the first would secretly buy the second. Each offer now sticks to its question, and a new one waits until you've answered.• The art collection window no longer stays on screen (and eats clicks) when you get pulled into pachinko or another minigame.• FSA "recent big purchase" warning icon was hidden under the "…" bul…

• Update 0.10.2.0: big-money fixes, achievements, companies - 27 August 2026

  Thanks for your bug reports! This update focuses on long saves with huge fortunes, plus a batch of fixes you asked for. Huge fortunes• Companies worth over 1,000 trillion yen no longer crash in price overnight when you load a save. Old saves that already hit this wall will recover.• Cash, company income and dividends keep flowing correctly at quintillion-yen levels. The money counter no longer freezes.• Fixed "NaN%" and stuck lines on the stock chart after buyouts and mergers.• When you're very rich, small everyday events (parking tickets, plumber, PC upgrades…) no longer bother you.Companies & stocks• You can no longer own more than 100% of a company through a "cheap shares" offer. The bar version of that deal now actually works.• A CEO who owns the entire company can no longer be voted out by the board.• Board member salary was paid twice a month - fixed.• Your own company now splits…

• Update 0.10.1.4 - 18 August 2026

  - Stock splits and reverse splits no longer mess up your books: average purchase price, position stats and the regulator's records now convert correctly with the split, so your P&L and taxes stay honest. - Dumping a huge stake in one day now draws the Financial Services Agency's attention. - The mysterious investor no longer gifts your company free money. He now offers to BUY newly issued shares at market price - real money into your reserves with real dilution of your stake. - Project result notifications now say which company the project belongs to. - You can now pick February 29 as your birthday. Leap-day folks celebrate on Feb 29 when it exists, and on March 1 in other years. - The acquisition offer window title is now properly translated in all languages (was stuck in Ukrainian). - Fixed text overflowing its panel on the downtown map and on the home screen.

• v.0.10.1.3: Bug Fixes - 16 August 2026

  - Fixed a crash in the arcade minigame when your score exactly tied the lowest highscore entry. - Fixed a rare crash when visiting locations while returning to the main menu. - Fixed crashes caused by mods with missing or outdated graphics - the game now skips the broken image instead of crashing. - Fixed a crash in property dialogs when the building had already been sold or demolished - dialogs also no longer show the wrong property in that case. - Improved crash reporting so future issues can be found and fixed faster.

• Update 0.10.1.2 - 31 July 2026

  Discounted real estate listings are now shown first. Added sorting for real estate listings and a Residential / Commercial filter. Failed Shareholders’ Meetings now actually lower the share price. Previously, meetings that said “investors were disappointed” raised the price, while skipping a meeting improved the result instead of making it worse. The Portfolio no longer hides a company placed in the last row of a page. Long company names are now shortened instead of overlapping the Shares column. Companies with a single owner no longer hold Shareholders’ Meetings. Board support is also no longer required, and stock splits do not cause a market reaction. The investor at the bar now offers an actual deal instead of simply giving you money. They buy newly issued shares at the current price, and you can decline the offer. The “Realtor’s Number” item now works at any Reputation level. Fixed…

• Update 0.10.1.1: Small Fixes - 26 July 2026

  Buying and selling shares can now immediately affect the share price. This time, there are safeguards against exploits that would feel more like bugs than actual market manipulation. Some of this sudden price change may fade by the next day. Marrying into a wealthy family now grants a permanent seat on the Board of Directors instead of one that disappears the next day. The blackjack table limit now applies per hand. Splitting and doubling down will correctly place the full second bet, allowing you to play both hands properly. Insurance now costs half of the original bet and pays 2:1, as stated. Issuing shares can no longer increase your ownership above 100%. Hopefully. Fixed a bug that could reduce the player’s share count overnight. Fixed a crash in very long playthroughs when the company world became full. For modmakers: added an early input_capture hook that runs at the start of the…

  Over the past month, I’ve been pushing a lot of small updates with various fixes. They might not be very noticeable, but the game should be more stable overall now.
