Blooming Business: Casino released one year ago!

Anniversary sales and new item for first year owners

Dear players,

Our first game, Blooming Business: Casino, celebrates its first anniversary! For this occasion, the game will be 50% off from the 25th of May to the 1st of June.

We will also grant one exclusive item: the Elephant Fountain to whoever has purchased the game before the 1st of June at 12:55 French time!

It’s still a great pleasure to organize seasonal events with free items and patch the game based on your feedback!

Throwback to one year of live ops support

• 9 Updates in total (3 major updates and 6 patches) since the release of the game

• Steam workshop with 4 dev-made mods, and a total of 450 subscriptions!

• New game feature: "Hide Wall" feature

• Increased Sandbox mode difficulty

• Added11 new items (free seasonal itemsHalloween, Winter season, Lunar New year)

• 3175 bugfixes

• and tons of improvement

While there are still some remaining bugs, there was a lot of original feedback that came from issues from the way missions were designed and the balancing was set. We’ve rewrite missions, changed the ways some worked, improved the conditions from success conditions to happen. It responded to a lot of the complaints you made and greatly improved the progression in the campaign. We wrote a guide to help you with the top campaign pain points. You can access the guide and gameplay tips here: https://steamcommunity.com/app/1388580/guides/

We’re now our own publisher

We’ve launched the game with the support of Curve Games who has helped us through the last year of development, through the financing, the development and marketing effort to make this game exist to the world. Curve Games has stopped supporting the game for months now. But we still supported it and with the change of publisher we’re happy to finally be able to bring new updates, fixes, and improvements to the game. We will do our best to continue to improve the game and fix potential new feedback, but with a little less regularity.

What the future holds

It’s more difficult for us to support Blooming Business: Casino for obvious financial reasons, but we still are committed to patch the game whenever necessary based on your feedback. We still have a few projects and ideas in mind, so stay tuned for more information in the coming weeks!

We organize monthly streams on our Twitch account to share more information about our learnings as an indie dev studio.

Also, if you want to learn more about our future projects, you can follow us on X or on our community Discord where we will chat about all our projects.

Thank you again for your continuous support! The Homo Ludens team
