changedI hope you're having another great week. Ours has been very interesting so far! Alessia is working on some of the cool features for the next big update while I was following a workshop organized by Spielfabrique. The program is about helping you to become a better indie studio. That is also the reason why this post arrives a bit late, sorry about that!
addedAdvanced production machinesYes, finally! We are going to add multiple advanced production machines that will help you scale up your production. The goal is to have something that requires less time from your workers so that they can freely handle more production lines at the same time.
addedTake out loansAt the beginning of a game it’s always tricky to balance profits and costs, and sadly sometimes you end up with negative money and there is no easy way out. That is why we want to add loans, you’ll be able to get some money and you’ll have time to get back on your feet.
addedInvestmentsAnother feature we wanted to add is investments. For those days when you have plenty of money and want to put them to good use. The idea is that you’ll invest a certain amount and you’ll slowly get them back with interest, who doesn’t like free money?
changedInvestmentsWe are also looking into how we can improve the general experience with targeted improvements. The idea is to make a pool or a questionnaire gathering your feedback on specific topics. We are going to work on this in the coming weeks, stay tuned!

This week I wanted to talk to you about the next big update. It’s not something written in stone so let us know if you think something should be prioritized more. We plan for this update to go live hopefully in the coming months.
Advanced production machines
Yes, finally! We are going to add multiple advanced production machines that will help you scale up your production. The goal is to have something that requires less time from your workers so that they can freely handle more production lines at the same time.
Here the concept of one of the producers
Take out loans
At the beginning of a game it’s always tricky to balance profits and costs, and sadly sometimes you end up with negative money and there is no easy way out. That is why we want to add loans, you’ll be able to get some money and you’ll have time to get back on your feet.
Investments
Another feature we wanted to add is investments. For those days when you have plenty of money and want to put them to good use. The idea is that you’ll invest a certain amount and you’ll slowly get them back with interest, who doesn’t like free money?
We are also looking into how we can improve the general experience with targeted improvements. The idea is to make a pool or a questionnaire gathering your feedback on specific topics. We are going to work on this in the coming weeks, stay tuned!
