Workshop Simulator is a first-person game where you try to restore some old items from your family farm. You can clean, paint, and disassemble any items that you can find to make them look brand new.
Recently, developers released Patch 1.20 which provided a lot of quality-of-life changes aimed at improving the gameplay experience. First, new colors have been added, giving you a total of 72 vibrant colors to choose from. This is a pretty significant increase compared to the nine colors back then.
Small and medium-sized brushes have been added as well. The small brush is best used for finer details, while the medium-sized one is okay for most painting tasks. Those who are new to the game should always press and hold the Alt key to paint.
Because you’re going to paint more in this update, new mouse sensitivity options have also been included in Patch 1.20. They are handy and welcome indeed, especially when you’re painting intricate details on an antique vase, for example.
