We’re going to be in Next Fest!
Starting on June 10th (or maybe a bit before 😉), you’ll be able to dive in to a brand-new updated demo. Boss has thrown you right in the midst of a failing town, and you’ll have even more tools and décor at your disposal to bring it to glory.
You’ll be able to experience:
- The core gameplay loop of Go-Go Town! 🌇 build up your town, customize the layout, convince tourists to live in your town (then put them to work!), and automate your way to success!
- Single Player and Co-op Play with up to 4 players 🎮⌨️ either local or via Steam Remote Play
- The ability to lay out your town the way you want 📐 put roads, rivers, and shops wherever you’d like
- 16 shop varieties in three different sizes, machines to refine resources to build them, and recipes for food and items to sell at the shops
- Four industry zones: 🌾🎣🌳⛏️ Farming, Fishing, Forestry and Mining - all with power tools to help you gather resources
- Ride vehicles (with friends!) 🚙 and use them to carry materials around to help build your town
- Localised in-game text & subtitles 🔡 in French, German, Japanese, Simplified & Traditional Chinese, Korean, Thai, Brazilian Portuguese, and Latin America Spanish.
If you’ve played the demo before, we’ve also added a few new things - and the💡emoji means the update was inspired by our community!
- Updated AI 🤖 NPCs were pretty clueless at their job, we’ve made them less clueless. Workers will prioritize the needs of the town, couriers will carry multiple items, and more! (but still: be patient with them)
- Updated build mode 🏗️ We've made things easier to build in your town - edit and delete are now the same control, you can see the outline of a building before placing it, and now when you place décor items, you can rotate them before they get placed.
- Camera controls 🎥 Zoom in and out, get some angled views - you're ready for your close up!
- Expanded Industry 🧰 Introducing: protein! You can harvest it from mushrooms on the farm, or use the seafood converter in the Fishing Zone, and different shops will use it in new recipes. We've also added new recipes for processors, so you can make cheese, honey and butter, as well as additional seeds for the farm.
- New tourists 💁🏻♀️ If you want to have tourists join your town, they'll now have special requests: build something, collect something, or sometimes just pay them - it depends!
- Updated map 🗺️ The map is now super-charged. There are more elements that you can see, like individual tourists, you can filter it to only show what you're interested in - or what you'd like to hide away
- Quality of Life Upgrades 📈
- Save management has been added, and your save file will show details about your town when you load it.
- 💡 We've changed language in areas to be more clear - machines will now say "set recipe" so it's super clear.
- 💡Customize the colors of buildings and shops. This isn't fully customizable yet, but there are now color randomizers attached to most buildings.
- 💡Un-hire couriers (we know this has been a big ask!)
- You can now hold to pick up and drop items (very useful with throwing garbage out)
- Swinging on swings is now possible
- 💡 Re-binding keys (also very requested!)
- Controllers will now rumble
And that’s not all! We’re excited to announce that we’ll be included in the PC Gaming Show this Sunday, June 9th at 1pm PT (June 10th @ 6am AUS time) and we HIGHLY recommend you tune in—we’ve got some pretty great things to share!
You can check it out on Twitch or YouTube - don’t forget to put it on your calendar!
