House Flipper 2 News

First ever House Flipper 2 Feature Update!

[h3]🎙️ The last couple of days were full of your suggestions![/h3]

Since the release, you guys have been very active on various player-developer communication channels.
Thanks to that, we were able to discover some overlooks on our side and decided to act quickly before the winter holiday break!

For the last week, we tried gathering as much feedback as possible, especially keeping a close eye on our new feature request board on Canny.io!

[hr][/hr]If you don't know what Canny.io is, it's a platform where our players can:
  • See what we have planned for the future of House Flipper 2
  • Influence this plan by commenting on and upvoting the things that they think are a priority.
  • Create posts that contain player ideas for new content. These posts can then be upvoted by the rest of the community members and implemented into the House Flipper 2 roadmap.

[h3]📜 The Feature Update patch notes:[/h3]

Today, we're delivering some simple, yet very effective quality-of-life features which were instantly requested by our community right after the release:


  • Added a Hold / Toggle option inside the Settings > Gameplay Tab. This feature works with:
      - painting
      - general cleaning
      - window cleaning
      - wall building
      - vacuuming
    (Important: the tooltips will still suggest that you're using the hold option, don't worry about it, we'll change that soon!)

  • Added options for inverted X/Y mouse movement settings in the Settings > Gameplay Tab.
  • Added WASD tooltips when painting and cleaning windows.
  • Added a popup suggesting lower graphics settings in case of a game crash.
  • Optimized window cleaning to work better on low-end GPUs.
  • The game now triggers an autosave upon entering the assembly mechanic.
  • Fixed disappearing assembly elements!
  • Fixed the issues encountered during the drilling phase in the assembly mechanic.
  • Property photos are now getting automatically exported along with uploading the property to Mod.io
  • The popup about not being able to sell your parents' house is now displayed properly.
  • Added support for all keyboard layouts (yikes!).
  • Added variety regarding TV shows on different properties.
  • Reflections should no longer go crazy on your GPU memory.
  • Optimization improvements for various stains.
  • BIGGER FONTS for Steam Deck users!



We also performed a couple of tests regarding motion sickness in House Flipper 2
Generally, what seems to be working is:
  • Turning off FSR (but we still love AMD!)
  • Turning off Motion Blur
  • Disabling V-Sync and setting your fps to match your monitor refresh rate.

That's it, folks! We will be back with more updates in 2024!
Cheers, have a wonderful rest of the week! ❤️

House Flipper 2 - Feature request board!

[h3]Today's announcement is all about listening to you.[/h3]

With the launch of House Flipper 2, we started getting tons of feedback that we'd like to gather in the best possible way. This would allow us to correctly analyze it and make sure to properly implement all of your suggestions into our House Flipper 2 roadmap.

Right now, we wanna gather as much as possible. Knowing what you want and need helps us make the game even better![hr][/hr]

[h3]This leads us to a platform called Canny![/h3]

On Canny, you're able to:
  • See what we have planned for the future of House Flipper 2
  • Influence this plan by commenting on and upvoting the things that you think are a priority.
  • Create posts that contain your ideas for new content. These posts can then be upvoted by the rest of the community members and implemented into the House Flipper 2 roadmap.


Here's a link to join The Official House Flipper 2 Roadmap on Canny!

There are three boards with categories:
  • Jobs and houses - like adding jobs that have only painting (:P) or are set on the deserted island enviroment
  • Mechanics and features - like selling roofs or disabling the day-night cycle
  • Items and item features - like opening drawers, adding fire to fireplaces, new items to assemble etc.


[hr][/hr]No worries, we'll still be checking our Steam Discussions and various other platforms when it comes to collecting feedback, but we just feel like Canny is an extremely effective tool that at the same time keeps stuff simple and transparent!

Remember that even if you simply fell in love with House Flipper 2, there's still probably something, even a small detail that in your opinion could be better. We wanna hear about that!
Every little piece of feedback is appreciated, so don't hesitate at all!

Cheers! ❤️

House Flipper 2 - WHAT'S NEXT?

[h3]💝 Let's quickly talk about what just happened.[/h3]
[hr][/hr]
The release day was a BLAST! We've seen thousands of people playing the game, and even more, enjoying their favorite streamers having fun with it on Twitch.tv

On top of that, we've just beaten the overall player count record for House Flipper / House Flipper 2, which was previously set at 15,900 Flippers playing simultaneously! 🎉
The amount of Flippers playing is still growing, and it's just so insane to see such a great reception!
THANK YOU! 💖

Today, we also went ahead and updated House Flipper 2 with a smooth little hotfix that took care of some pretty frequently seen but easy-to-fix issues.
Since the release, we have been constantly monitoring all of the communication channels between our community and the devs, and we're working on a priority list regarding any overlooks! 👀

Our house-sharing community platform on Mod.io also went live, giving you the ability to share with your friends whatever you come up with in House Flipper 2's Sandbox Mode!



[h3]🔮 Let's also talk about the future![/h3]
[hr][/hr]
You might be wondering what's next, and I might have some sneak peeks for you!
First of all, the next couple of months will be full of going through your opinions, bug reports, and feature requests. We will be trying to figure out what our priorities regarding those are, and we already started seeing some popular demands!
  • Firstly we have a ton of requests about inverted mouse settings! Don't worry guys, we see you!
  • Then there's also the need for a hold/toggle option for certain tools. Definitely doable, but not as simple as it may seem!

Taking care of those will be a serious quest for our mighty coders, but hey... at the same time, our 3D crew will be working on new precious item collections for the first House Flipper 2 content update! 🙀
I know you'd love to hear more about it, but for now, I'll only say it's planned to come along with the spring season! 🌼



[h3]🎮 The upcoming weeks will show who's the most creative Flipper![/h3]
