Bug fixes and new feature updates (Service temporarily suspended)
Thank you.
Team Hamster Talk
Hello, this is the Hamster Talk team.
We have rolled out a new update incorporating your valuable feedback.
New Indoor Wallpapers Added
New wallpaper items have been added to help you decorate your screen and create a fresh new atmosphere.
You can check out the new wallpapers under Shop > Decoration > Indoor.
Official Mac OS Support
Hamster Talk now officially supports macOS.
Global Town Chat System Introduced
A global chat feature has been added, allowing you to communicate with other players in the Town.
The global chat feature becomes available after your very first visit to the Plaza.
Popo Farm Auto-Placement Enabled
The Popo Farm auto-placement button, which was previously disabled, is now fully active. You can now manage your Town much more conveniently.
Vertical Monitor Resolution Optimization
We have improved an issue where the screen zoomed out excessively, making controls difficult when visiting Towns on vertical monitors (where the screen height exceeds the screen width).
To improve usability on vertical monitors, the playable area is now limited based on the monitor's width.
Decorations, play facilities, and Popo Farms located outside this restricted area will automatically be moved inside the screen upon login.
Auto-Closing Town Visit Pop-up
When returning to your own Town after visiting another player's Town, the Town visit information pop-up will now close automatically.
Improved Town Visit UI
The search and random Town visit UI will now remain visible even while visiting other players' Towns, allowing for a seamless, uninterrupted Town-touring experience.
Play Item Platforms: Unlock Levels & Selling Prices Adjusted
The unlock levels and selling prices of certain play item platforms have been adjusted. These adjustments provide a smoother progression experience.
Natural Popo Farm Balance Adjustments
The purchase prices for Apple Tree and Orange Tree Popo Farms have been adjusted.
Additionally, the production output/sales volume of food from Apple and Orange Trees has been changed, slightly adjusting Popo Farm operational efficiency.
Care Buddy Upgrade Cost Adjustments
The required costs for each upgrade stage of Care Buddies have been adjusted. This change reduces upgrade costs throughout progression
Max Level Display Improvement
Upon reaching the maximum level, the level value will now be intuitively displayed simply as "MAX."
Early Tutorial Guide Enhanced
To ensure smoother early-game play, a new tutorial guide for the second free draw has been added.
Friend Town Visits Updated
When visiting a friend's Town, the system has been changed to only visit Towns that are currently active.
Max Level EXP Error Fixed
Fixed an issue where EXP could incorrectly exceed 100% after reaching the maximum level.
Play Item Visual Bug Fixed
Fixed a visual issue on the Spring Car play item where the spring part appeared floating awkwardly in an abnormal position.
Popo Farm Animation Error Fixed
Fixed an intermittent issue where a wrong harvest animation would trigger when returning to the game after minimizing it, even though the natural Popo Farm's harvest progress was under 50%.
If you have any bug reports or feedback, please let us know on our Discord.
We carefully review every message.
Thank you.

# 🐹 Hamster Talk Store Page is Now Live!
Hamster Talk is a desktop idle social game where tiny hamsters move freely across your screen.
They nap beside open windows, play with the objects you place, wander across your workspace, and continue their routines while you focus on yours.
This isn’t a game you step away from your work to play. It exists alongside you.
Keep it open while you work or study. Check in when you need a short pause.
Customize your desktop with toys and furniture and see how their behavior changes over time.
Their world isn’t limited to your desktop. In the Global Plaza, your hamster can meet others in a live shared space.
See other players’ hamsters in real time and chat together!
🎮 A playable demo is coming during the upcoming Steam Next Fest.
We’re putting the final touches on the build and will share more details soon.
If this sounds like something you’d keep open on your screen, consider adding Hamster Talk to your Steam Wishlist and following the page.
It helps more than you think and keeps you updated when the demo goes live.
You can also join our Discord to stay connected:
We hope Hamster Talk finds a place on your screen.
