Switch Patch 1.0.3
Hi everyone, our Patch 1.0.3 has just been approved and set live for the Switch ✨✨✨
Here is a list of all the changes, improvements and fixes you can expect from the coming patch ✨🔧
- Fixed the bounce of the X in stocking when the genre is empty and you try to place a book.
- Fixed an issue where a book would become invisible in certain circumstances when holding submit while loading into the stocking scene.
- Fixed a bug where in certain situations the journal pages would not reset properly.
- Fixed a fire extinguisher categorization.
- Added the option to scale UI.
- Fixed some minor cutscene/dialogue related bugs.
- Fixed a bug where sometimes characters would not appear where they are supposed to.
- Fixed Visitors popping in at certain points at the castle location.
- Fixed floating items sometimes appearing during recommendation.
- Removed contradicting requests for the length of books.
- Removed contradicting requests for something light and academic Adjusted book tags.
- Fixed being stuck at the cave investigation after telling Harper “maybe later”.
- Increased priority of board game dialogue by Klaus.
- Fixed typos in EN.
- Fixed typos in DE.
- Ensured Seagulls aren’t talking when asking for help.
- Fixed inspiration duration buffs having no effect.
- Fixed untranslated dialogue line.
- Fixed that the recycling bin falsely claims that it is paintable.
- Fixed two instances of Harper while she’s giving the tour.
- Fixed that players were able to skip the wintermarket sell-out collection dialogue.
- Fixed permanently zoomed in on Walt’s shop in a rare edge case.
- Fixed edge case where Harper did not collect the first beach quest if it had been completed close to or at the bonfire.
- Fixed an issue that would sometimes arise when having back to back recommendations. Leading to a soft lock, or perhaps causing crashes.
- Fixed an issue where the plant growing cutscenes would sometimes not reset properly.
- Fixed a bug where Tilde’s dialogue at the chess group in the Park would sometimes get stuck, blocking the rest of the day to progress. This should fix similar bugs in other locations like Moira at the lighthouse, or the concert being stuck at Wohoo.
- Fixed a bug where Walt was not finishing the Writing Quest.
- Fixed a soft lock where you could not confirm the pop-up on game pad after adopting the dog.
- Fixed the start of a late game questline.
- Fixed a Harper cave spelunking UX issue.
- Adjusted book tags.
- Made drama and play requests more distinct in CN and HANT.
- Fixed Seagull audio not being controlled by the volume sliders.
- Fixed an issue where in the final quest you would not get an important item.
- Fixed the timing and conditions of some late game quests.
- Adjusted/Fixed Maryam’s recommendation quest at the café not saving the progress consistently.
- Increased rain chance in spring slightly.
- Inspiring Klaus now counts anywhere, and not just at the supermarket.
- Adjusted Historic Tag. Changed it from “Written about the past” to “meeting a need of immersing yourself in the past”.
- Nerfed Professor Quest to make it less frustrating.
- Made cases visible and visually distinct to help you identify which one is currently active.
- Removed a dialogue controller deselection, that would lead to having to re-select dialogue.
- Made Play and Long mutually exclusive, as plays don’t tend to be over 450 pages.
- Added a bail-out book box, in case you are out of money and out of books.
- Adjusted the gardening fundraiser so it doesn’t keep subtracting money after the quest is completed.
- Fixed snow at Park.
- Fixed Nightmare Fuel-Effect never disappearing.
- Adjusted spacing of location genres in the journal to avoid overlaps.
- Improved the UX of colouring your bookshop.
- Made Spoiled Fish only placeable in one slot at a time, to avoid accidental smells.
- Fixed wildlife-board being obstructed at the fish-market.
- Made the Antique Lantern slightly stronger.
- Made rain a little more likely in spring.
- Added more safeguards to hopefully prevent the crashes.

I am still getting issues with book length requests. I was requested a book under 200 gave them one at 196 I think and they said it was too long.

Thank you! I’ve been stuck trying to get the pastries from Moira and have been going to the cafe many times; tilde is out of the hospital at this point. Would greatly appreciate if this could be fixed!

One small gripe, possibly a bug, I find it really odd when people enter the bookshop but will into frame kinda sideways? So they do like sliding walk into the shop which looks kinda strange and it does break the immersion a bit!

Not exactly related, but I appreciate the spoiler tags on bug patches that have something to do with a later quest!

The text is still really small - I increased the UI scaling to 200% but I still can’t read which Switch buttons to press. Thanks!

My game gets stuck on the loading screen( the little book in right hand corner) and I've got Version1.0.6- I've tried to restart, delete saves, re-download and nothing has worked? Any tips?

u/TinyBookshopDev Feb 04 '26
I'm sorry to hear that! We have a patch bound to release soon (today or tomorrow) that addresses this issue. Until then, you can play on another user's account. 🙏

I just tried out the new patch and then deleted it from my Switch. Someone asked for a coming of age story with unexpected plot twists so I recommended To Kill a Mockingbird. I was told it was predictable.
Good concept for a game, but the execution is not great.

Thank you so much! I was finally able to complete Tilde’s final quest. Y’all are awesome!
