Hi again everyone, I come bearing news (other than the update) and I'm excited to get stuck in.
The Future
Right now we're working towards a huge feature, the ability to purchase another property on the map and own two Pubs at the same time. I believe this will take another couple of months to get it perfect but once this is done I will consider the game out of Early Access.
What does this mean for the game? Not much in a development sense, we'll keep digging through the most suggested features and work on the next big thing, the only reason we're calling this 'complete' is because this feature (along with the others we've implemented) pretty much encompasses the vision of what we thought this game should be.
The Present
This update comes with something else which, to my surprise, has been suggested by the existing community for some time. The game is too cheap, and while I wanted to keep the price low this also comes with expectations that the game isn't very good and is 'bargain bin' tier. So for this I'll be raising it to be in-line with other Sim games in our quality range.
The Patch
And now we come to the patch itself, this isn't the biggest one but should fix many of the gripes we've been facing since patch 10 and beyond.
