Pre launch broadcast

[h2]Homebased team is bringing some great news and answers to all your questions![/h2]

[h3]First of all we would like to say big thanks to all our active community members. Small things like answering other player's questions, sharing information and your very own strategies really helped us to stay focused on game development. Apes together - STRONG.
[/h3]



[h3]It's been a long journey for Garbage, and we are finally ready to share it with the world!
We were working around the clock to deliver the highest quality game and we think the amount of new content will leave you astonished! In the worst possible outcome, the game will not be delayed more than one week.[/h3]



[h2]Updated new screenshots[/h2]
[h3]Our secretive period is over. We tried our best to show the least amount of spoilers while presenting the majority of new features of the game. The new skill tree, classes, events, items, quests, NPC's, you name it![/h3]

[h2]Frequently asked questions to Hobo King:[/h2]



[h3]Q: What is the price of the full game?
A: It was the most difficult decision to make, but our team goal is to make Garbage available for everyone.
The price will be approximately 15 Euro, and we think this price should suit most of the players. However, it could vary depending on the region.[/h3]



[h3]Q: Will there be any new languages in the game?
A: Yes, we added the Korean translation. In total, Garbage will be translated into 13 languages, and you can check the list in the store page.[/h3]



[h3]Q: How can I listen to your game beat-tape?
A: Original soundtrack of the game will be available to purchase via Steam. The beat-tape is greatly expanded since the launch of Hobo Prophecy.[/h3]



[h3]Q: What about the Steam achievements and cards?
A: Right now we think it is not the most important thing to focus on. If there will be a visible demand for this feature, we will consider delivering it after the official launch![/h3]



[h3]Q: Can I customize and name my character?
A: After long consideration, we came to a conclusion to avoid this feature. First of all It's a management/survival auto-battler and not an RPG-style game. We made sure to compensate for this with a variety of items and fighting classes.[/h3]



[h3]Q: Can I play this game online or co-op?
A: Unfortunately, no this is a single-player game with high replayability. However, it might be a feature for the Garbage sequel... Who knows? Maybe even an MMORPG of hobos.[/h3]



[h3]Q: Can you be a homeless woman?
A: No, we respect women! However, there will be some NPC Hookers![/h3]



[h3]Q: Is it going to be as difficult as the prologue - Hobo Prophecy?
A: Great question. Survival - especially during winter and special events, is going to be a bigger challenge. On the other hand the amount of consumable items will provide you with endless options to overcome harsh winter, just be prepared.[/h3]



[h3]Q: What about the lack of resources and items?|
A: Another great question that seems to bother many players. We added a few new options for looting the areas based on the number of requests we received. In addition, we added more NPC traders, a pawn shop and even a gambling spot![/h3]



[h3]Q: What is the maximum level of a character?
A: There are always those hardcore players who go to the extremes. That's why we didn't want to limit your freedom and made it possible to level up your skills to 30. However, we will not disclose the level required to finish the main story.[/h3]



[h3]Q: Will there be an extended tutorial?
A: If you have never been homeless, you will receive a small tutorial. But let's be realistic - when does anyone who became homeless get a tutorial? You got to figure this shit out by yourself.[/h3]



[h3]Q: When can we see an update for the Hobo Prophecy (prologue)?
A: Right now we are 100% focused on the full game launch. We will update it after the Garbage release![/h3]

[h3]Garbage is bringing some spicy news and overview of what's to come.[/h3]
It's been a bit longer break since last update and here is why:
Garbage: Hobo Prophecy gained massive popularity over YouTube and Over 900 reviews on Steam which lead us to vast amounts of feedback to analyse what works and what should be improved.
Base building, funny characters, the jokes, items, quests it seems there is something for every gamer to like. We felt that management and base building aspects of the game loses sense of achievement when the fights seem quite similar one to another. Since last update we set up a target to improve combat system. Here are all the updates we did:

[h3]Before[/h3]


[h3]Combat system v2:[/h3]

• 3 New fighting classes
  
• More complex fighting skills
  
• More passive skills
  
• New sounds
  
• Ability to assign your characters to different positions such as: Tank, Range, Fighter.
  

[h3]After[/h3]


[h3]Other updates:[/h3]

• Finished game story
  
• More night stories, side quests and NPC's
  
• A Shit ton of new NPC types
  
• Visual map updates
  
• Pimped up the arena mechanics
  
• Drawn cosmic amount of comics doodles
  
• Wrote a whole book of stories (even a whale would would not be able to chew this all up)
  
• Vast ocean of small features that should make game even more fun
  

We've put much consideration into this decision to release the game as quickly as possible but the most important is to make a quality game. Right now we are finalising the game content and soon we will be able to start shaping it to the final form.
