BlueCafe 0.1.1

BlueCafe 0.1.1 is available for Linux x86_64 and Windows x86_64.

New in 0.1.1

• Presets: open a preset in the file manager. Bundled examples are materialized as layout files; saved cafes reveal their existing records.
• Area select: use the toolbar button and drag a rectangle on the cafe floor. Its outline follows the floor in oblique views. Release the mouse to select furniture and immediately return to normal selection; Shift adds to the selection.
• Camera orbit: hold the middle mouse button and drag to change the viewing angle around the cafe. Right-drag pans and the wheel zooms.
• God's-eye view: switch to a fitted view from directly above; click again to restore the previous view.

This release also includes the desktop improvements since the published alpha: editable Rooms and polygon areas, wall decoration placement, saved startup cafes, workspace controls and large-cafe rendering fixes.

Download and start

• Linux: extract BlueCafe-0.1.1-linux-x86_64.tar.gz and run launch.sh.
• Windows: extract BlueCafe-0.1.1-windows-x86_64.zip and run BlueCafe.exe.
• Source: use GitHub’s Source code (zip) or Source code (tar.gz) links below. SHA256SUMS covers the Linux and Windows downloads.

Keep the whole extracted folder together. Unity Editor and Python are not required to run the app. Supply a separate compatible prepared asset folder in Settings or with --asset-pack. Game assets, catalog data and acquisition helpers are excluded from these downloads.

Save and close an older app before using the same data folder. Existing saved cafes and preferences are retained; keep a backup before upgrading. V1 layouts remain readable; geometry edits produce v2 layouts that the alpha cannot read. Use --data-path for a separate profile.

Verification and limitations

209 Unity tests and integrated Linux Player control checks passed. Both non-development builds succeeded with zero errors. Packages include runtime/font notices and file manifests. Windows runtime acceptance remains unverified; native Windows file dialogs are not implemented, so use editable paths. Physical input, clean-machine installation, timed human workflows and full performance targets remain separate acceptance checks. No macOS build is provided.

BlueCafe is unofficial. Rights to separately supplied game content remain with its owners. No project-wide source license has been selected.

BlueCafe 0.1.0-alpha.1 — Linux alpha

Personal-use Linux alpha of the standalone BlueCafe app. Rooms remains experimental and is excluded from alpha readiness.

Download and run

Download BlueCafe-0.1.0-alpha.1-linux-x86_64.tar.gz, extract it, and run launch.sh. Keep the folder together. No Unity Editor or Python is required. Optional native dialogs use zenity; typed paths are supported.

Use your existing prepared asset folder in Settings or set BLUECAFE_ASSET_PACK=/path/to/prepared-pack when launching. Game assets and catalog data are not bundled. This release has no downloader or raw-game conversion helper.

Save and close an older BlueCafe instance before launching against the same data folder. Existing saved cafes and asset settings use the same BlueCafe application-data identity.

Included

• Build, Presets, Assets and Settings, with move/rotate/copy/delete, undo/redo and portable layout persistence.
• Consistent preview/selection footprints, half-cell floor movement, and an automatic placement/move grid.
• Resizable window, Escape for popups, corrected catalog toggles/dropdowns, and Interior selection highlighting/reveal.
• Non-development Linux x86_64 Player and authenticated local agent bridge.
• Font, Unity runtime, package and native-library notices under licenses/.

The archive was rebuilt to correct the font license notices before public release. It contains no game meshes, textures or thumbnails. The source history has been cleaned of local game content and reference evidence.

This is a workstation-verified personal alpha. Clean-machine acceptance, performance budgets, the complete standalone specification and Windows/macOS beta remain open. Check the .sha256 file against the downloaded archive from the same directory.
