Development Update #11
Welcome to our eleventh development update for Power to the People! Now that the Steam Next Fest has come to an end, we're ready to gather all of your precious feedback and keep working hard on the game.
[h2]Steam Next Fest[/h2]
We're thrilled by the way the community has responded to our participation on the Steam Next Fest! Thousands of people have downloaded our demo and played it. And we've also received lots of valuable feedback on Discord, Twitter and Steam. We couldn't be happier with the way players and streamers have engaged with this first public build of the game. Did you miss the demo? You can check out this video by Katherine Of Sky on Youtube:

[h2]New random events[/h2]
There's a whole new array of random events to keep you on your toes! And, even better, some of these will require you to connect high voltage power lines directly to high power usage special buildings. Keep your power grid running smoothly so the lights at the new electric ferry terminal or at the mysterious high-tech research center stay on!
[h2]Loans feature[/h2]
Yes! The brand new "loans" feature is finally here. Now you'll be able to borrow money to fix and expand your infrastructure when you're in trouble... But be careful, everything has a price!
[h2]More settings[/h2]
Thanks to all the feedback we've gathered after releasing our demo, we've decided to add a few more settings to the game. These will ensure that it can be played comfortably by people with different hardware, different skills and different playing styles. Now you can choose between different sizes for the game's user interface and also configure how the camera's movement works.
[h2]Power to the people![/h2]
We're obsessed with small details, you might say... And that's why we added this new feature to the game! Now, if you make residents of a city very angry due to frequent blackouts, they'll take to the streets and express their unhappiness.
