  Hello, diner managers!New version is up, with a few minor fixes and tweaks. That includes:UPDATESOverall game size reduced, as well as memory usage.Cloud saves now enabled.Implemented performance optimisations to reduce loading times.Readability improvements to readable tutorial layout.Implemented permanent dismissal for previously persistent (and annoying) notifications.FIXESFixed missing and incorrect text across several UI elements (mainly tooltips) in all languages.Fixed stuttering during simultaneous tile usage (mainly when salvaging and building).Fixed an issue in Room Editing that allowed players to create two separate rooms within the same instance.Fixed cases where multiple tooltips could appear simultaneously or overlap.Fixed backend issues that caused uncommon non-obvious and non-player facing crashes.We're continuing to work on new content, but as the holiday season is fast…

• The Steam Awards? Why Not! - 25 November 2025

  Nominate The Diner at the End of the Galaxy for the 'Best Game You Suck At'We normally would never consider our own games for the Steam Awards. But the “Best Game You Suck At” category perfectly captures those first few playthroughs of The Diner, so we figured this might be the one award we actually qualify for (in a self-deprecating way).From failed crops to unintentionally cursed room layouts to mysteriously lost expedition ships, getting the hang of the game takes practice (and the occasional Early Access bugs aren't helping — totally not your fault!).So we’re hopping on the Steam Awards bandwagon and encouraging our ever-persistent Diner Managers to nominate the game for the one category that feels the most accurate right now.In the meantime, we’re continuing to improve the game thanks to your awesome feedback!Thanks, Diner Managers!The General Interactive Team

Sound off in the discussion boards and let us know if you have any suggestions on the economy and the difficulty (we're hoping to get a Discord server up and running soon).Steam achievements are on the way.

• D.E.G. is out on November 18! - 10 November 2025

  Diner is finally releasing!A proud moment for our team, and future we're looking forward to as we build the game together.Dear Diner Managers,We are so excited to finally announce a release date for The Diner at the End of the Galaxy!After three long years of non-stop development, the game is finally coming out on Early Access on November 18, 2025. Here's what to expect with the Early Access version:A full game with lots of content and many ways to finish and win (or lose).Three game modes: Creative Mode if you want to focus on designing a gorgeous diner with infinite resources, easy mode for those who want to ease their way into the game and normal mode for the experience we intended our players to have.The game can be enjoyed fully from start to finish. However, we chose to go the Early Access route so that we could lean in on our community to find the best way to polish off the game…

• NEW DEMO IS LIVE! - 22 May 2025

  THE NEW DEMO HAS LANDED Diner Managers of the Galaxy, We're very excited to announce that a new demo is out! After more than a year of further development, we've got an advanced beta that's ready to be tried out — most of the major features are now available for you to experience. Here are the demo's limitations: The demo lasts 2 in-game years, after which the game will automatically end. Special rooms are locked — they'll play an important role in generating money and visitor satisfaction in the later stages of the main game. The Expeditions feature is locked — we're still fine-tuning it! Also, please note that you may encounter some weird bugs or imperfections in the art and audio assets. We're working on those. We would really appreciate it if you reported any bugs you find. Head over to the discussion board — you'll see a pinned post where we explain how to locate your game logs and…

• Development Update: A Before-and-After Progress Report - 29 January 2025

  Greetings, Intergalactic Diner Managers! A belated happy new year to everyone. What better time than now to take a moment to reflect and look back on all the progress we've made in the last 12 months - and we've made plenty! From a complete UI overhaul to tons of QoL improvements, new objects and animations to bug fixes, we're getting closer and closer to a release-ready build. But why read all this when you can see it for yourself -- watch the video below and see us put a build from exactly one year ago side-by-side with our latest build for comparison. On top of that, we're also hoping to get a demo ready in the next month - and once we do, we'll make sure to release an update. So do stay tuned, and if you haven't already, add us to your wishlist and give us a follow on Steam. Speak to you all again very soon! The General Interactive Team

• New Look, New Trailer, New Publisher and Lots of New Progress - 13 November 2024

  Greetings, diner managers! We've got so much new updates to share! The last time we updated the steam store page, it was 2023 and we were deep into the alpha phase of development. We had just the bare bones of the game to show - and it was just us, a development team of four, doing all the heavy lifting. How things have changed. We are proud to announce that we've recently just hit our beta milestone! During these past handful of months, we've worked our way to becoming officially feature complete (and picked up shortlists at SXSW Sydney and the Southeast Asia Game Awards along the way). That means the next few months will be dedicated to implementing new content - quests, items and objects, UI improvements, animations and music - and bug crunching. And our brand new trailer shows off a lot of our progress. To coincide with our participation in Steam's Cooking Fest, we've totally revamp…

• THE DEVS BUILD A DINER - 6 February 2024

  Watch us build and run a diner! We took you through the core gameplay in our last video - now, we're diving deeper into the mechanics. In fact, we actually want to try to build a decent looking diner - not the pitiful excuse for an intergalactic cantina we managed in our last stream. Easier said than done, but LFG. Quick note - this will be a pre-recorded video (it will be recorded just a few hours before it is broadcast). That's because livestreaming isn't our forte, and the myriad of technical difficulties that come with a 4-person stream across various time zones is honestly quite stressful. It'll be great all the same! See you there! Neil / Ricardo / Mikey / Mark
