It's been a while... This update has been on the backburner for quite some time, now that I'm unemployed again, it's probably a good time to put it out (alongside the Spring sale)

It includes many community requests and bug fixes. I've been scouring the reviews and discussions and picked out things that would fit into a medium-sized update/patch.

The biggest thing is probably achievements! Finally. There are 20 achievements for you to unlock; I tried to make them fun, let me know if there's any problems unlocking any of them.

While right now, I don't have any future plans for Dishwashing Simulator updates / content, they may or may not happen later, kind of like this update. I don't do promises for game updates anymore (I have a bad reputation.)

I've read all the various requests and critiques of the game, and I agree (for the most part, the parkour is peak and you can't change my mind) I'd love to fix and change so many things, but it probably won't happen; I consider the game "done." So any updates will be pretty similar to this one. Hopefully you stick around for my next games!
