Hey everyone,

I’m super excited to announce that we’ve added pen mechanics to our banking simulator! I know what you’re thinking: “A banking simulator with pen mechanics? That sounds boring!” But trust me, it’s not. In fact, it’s so much fun that I’m pretty sure I might have my blog access revoked for being too excited about it.

I know what you’re thinking: “This is still kind of boring.” But trust me, it’s not. Not only can customers pick up the pen, they can also use it to sign things. That’s right, they can actually pick up the pen and sign the back of a check. But only if you have the pen, and now that we’ve added one, you do.

We’re even thinking of including it even earlier so customers can use it to fill out other paperwork too.

I know what you’re thinking: “This is still kind of boring.” But trust me, it’s not. Because not only can customers use the pen to write things, they can also put the pen back in the pen holder. But only sometimes… you might have to remind them.

And of course, management at Multiverse Mutual has only given you one pen… and it’s not tied down. If you lose track of it, your boss is definitely going to have something to say about it.

I know what you’re thinking: “This is still kind of boring.” But trust me, it’s not. We also made customers aware of the game world around them, and the game is starting to feel immersive as a result. If you tell a customer a check isn’t signed, they’ll demand to see the back of it. If you’re wrong, they might get angry, which could increase your stress and lead to a meltdown… more on that in a few weeks.

Here’s a video showing how it works:

I hope you’re as excited about the new pen mechanics as I am!

If you are, maybe you’d like to join the waitlist for our Kickstarter! Right now, it’s an email list via a Google Form – our official Kickstarter Prelaunch Page is coming soon!

Until next time, keep being awesome!
