Hi everyone,
This week the main focus has been on support and bug fixing.
Last Saturday Startup Company was featured as Steam's Daily Deal. We had an amazing week where we welcomed a lot of new players. We even managed to break the old record of max concurrent players from 1403 to 1969 on April 21, 2019. (Super close to 2000!).
Bugfixes and changes this week
- Third floor added to the HQ building.
- Removed framework max level limitation to allow for modding.
- Fixed HTML in Korean speech bubbles.
- Increased aging speed by 33%.
- Removed landing page as a premium feature option.
- Fixed a bug causing contracts not to be cancelled when firing sales executives.
- Fixed bug where an employee could have two demands for firing the same employee.
- Fixed bug allowing players to generate components for free by cancelling current task.
- Fixed keyboard shortcuts that did not work.
- Increased maximum negotiation bid for expert candidates to $25.000.
- Fixed bug making it hard to unlock the Researcher achievement.

- Removed framework max limit limitation for mods.
- Fixed bug making it impossible to move items or workstations between floors.
New citymap planned for Beta 24
Bruno has returned and is working on the new citymap. We still need to make it more obvious what buildings are rent-able and some additional details, but overall I'm pretty happy with the result already.
Community Translations
Localizor, our upcoming game translation tool from Hovgaard Games is soon going into beta testing.
The tool will be used to allow you guys (the community) to mainly help translate Startup Company into more languages, but also to improve the existing translations.
If you're interested in joining the beta, make sure to subscribe to our newsletter at the Startup Company website and following Hovgaard Games on Steam.
Do you have suggestions or ideas for the game?

That's it for this week!
Best,
