Supermarket Chaos Patch 1.1.3 Overhauls Save and Backup System

Patch 1.1.3 for Supermarket Chaos, published on 12 July 2026, centers entirely on the game's save and recovery infrastructure rather than new content.

What changed

  • Backup list in-menu: Players can now view multiple previous backups directly from the menu and select the one they want, replacing the earlier system that only allowed opening a backup folder or managing a single backup.
  • Improved save and recovery logic: The underlying save system received broader stability improvements.
  • Translation and optimization work: Unspecified translation fixes and general optimization were also included.

Developer BunnyHop notes the new system was tested across more than 40 scenarios, while acknowledging it may not yet cover every edge case — with further stability work promised.

The post is candid about the tradeoff: the team knows players are waiting for new achievements and maps, but frames this infrastructure work as essential preparation for expanding the game, specifically citing multiplayer as the horizon it is building toward.

For players who have lost progress to save issues, the ability to browse and restore from a list of backups is a meaningful practical gain — even if it arrives quietly, without fanfare.

Supermarket Chaos Developer Targets Multiplayer Beta in August–September

Developer BunnyHop has outlined the next phase of Supermarket Chaos in a community post published July 5, 2026, centering on two additions: multiplayer and a new experimental mode.

What changed (or is planned)

  • Multiplayer is the primary development goal. Because the game was originally built around single-player, the team says implementing it requires redesigning a significant part of the game's structure from the ground up.
  • A first multiplayer beta test is targeted for sometime between August and September. A stable multiplayer experience is aimed for within the current year.
  • Player count is being planned with 2–4 players in mind first, though the studio notes this has not been finalized.
  • A new mode is also in development alongside multiplayer — described as a small experimental mode intended for players who enjoy symmetrical play. It is being prioritized over new maps, which the team notes require substantially more production time.
  • All updates mentioned are planned to be free.
  • The team acknowledges that working on both projects simultaneously may cause the new mode's schedule to slip.

The studio's transparency about the structural challenge — and the explicit caveat that player counts and timelines remain unfinalized — suggests these are directional commitments rather than locked deliverables. Players should expect updates, but with patience built into the arrangement.
