[h3]🗒️ Take a peek at the patch notes![/h3][hr][/hr]
[h3]New:[/h3]
  • A job (Don’t bother looking for any BLAZING HOT content, nothing to see here, just some boring cleaning!)
  • A new interaction with the “VR goggles” item! (No need to check that either, NO HIDDEN FEATURES, just move on!)
  • A collection of items fitting a new theme! (Some weird stuff referring to HIGH TEMPERATURES or something… no clue.)
  • Mod.io houses and jobs can now be browsed from inside the game! (Ah, at last! This WARMS my heart!)

[h3]Changes:[/h3]
  • Optimization tweaks for the “Coast” environment!
  • If you’re playing on a controller, you can now enjoy a bunch of navigation and quality-of-life improvements!
  • UI visual enhancements.
  • If your PC was struggling with window cleaning, now it’s gonna be smooth as butter! (at least we hope so…)



[h3]🏆 The second House Flipper 2 Community Contest starts NOW![/h3]
[hr][/hr]


Oh yeah!
With this update, it's much more than just new content prepared by us, the devs.
You can create your very own lava tracks and levels, share them with us, and even compete in the Community Contest for the best lava track in the Flipper community!


[h3]đź“ť The rules are simple![/h3]

1. Create a new property in the House Flipper 2 Sandbox Mode.

2. Build a track / course fitting the theme of the Contest - “Floor is Lava”:

a) Your "Floor is Lava" project has to contain the Lava surface finish (found in Sandbox Mode's Surface Finishes/Other)

b) Remember that your project also has to contain the following items:
  • A Start gate
  • At least one Checkpoint gate
  • A Finish gate
These can be found in the House Flipper 2 in-game item store, in the Sandbox Only/Minigames category

3. Upload the finished property to the Mod.io website with at least 3 screenshots best showcasing the project, as well as check the “Floor is Lava” tag in the upload process.

4. Make sure to submit your entry by April 30, 2024, 23:59, Polish time (CEST)!

Check out the full version of the Official "Floor is Lava" Community Contest Ruleset!
If any of the rules is unclear to you, make sure to let us know!



We will be rating the entries in 2 categories:

Enjoyable Gameplay - in this category, it's ALL about the gameplay! Show us how enjoyable, interesting, and surprising your track can be! The difficulty of the track can vary, as we love both the casual and easy tracks, as well as the more challenging and harder ones! Bring it on!

Visual Masterpiece - in this category, we will be rating the entries by how visually creative and appealing the entries are, within the theme of “Floor is Lava” of course! Go totally ham with unique designs and show us how awesome your lava track can look like!



When it comes to the rewards, three participants in each category, so six participants in total, will win exclusive House Flipper goodies!

1st place in each category: The House Flipper 2 Microsoft Controller!
2nd places: The steelbox version of House Flipper 2!
3rd places: Bessie the Beaver plushie!




[h3]🎥 Last but not least - a developer stream![/h3][hr][/hr]


April 3rd, 6:00 PM CEST!
We'll be streaming on:
- Twitch
- Steam
- YouTube

Everyone's welcome to come and chill out with us for a bit! We will surely talk a bit more about the update, hopefully get a chance to play some of the first "Floor is Lava" community maps on Mod.io website, as well as have a chat about the Floor is Lava Community Contest!

I hope you'll love this update as much as we do here in Frozen District.
Had a great time working on it, and as long as it catches some of you off guard during this year's April Fools' Day, we're glad we tried to deliver such a different idea!

Have a great April y'all! ❤️❤️
