Where are we heading ?
Dear friends,
First I just wanted to say thank you. You've been more than 9000 people to play Idle Colony demo in less than two weeks. It's not been two months since the Steam Page opened and you're already 5500 to have wishlisted the game!
Additionally, 1200 of you have been kind enough to fullfill the feedback form that gave me precious data on how to make a better game!
I'm still reading through your all of your comments and taking notes to know what's a priority for you
You're all being very enthusiast and lovely, thank you for your amazing support.
Something that came back a lot is that you don't like much the dark colors of the game. And I agree with you, so this is something I'm working on at the moment.
But one if not the most important thing for you (and for me too) is the lack of gameplay mechanics allowing for choices and strategies!
I don't want to say much about my plans because I'm still in a brainstorming phase. My miro is filled with sticky notes.
I'm working on a full rework of the tech tree, and I'd like to add a special currency during runs allowing for unique upgrades. Much like the Zybellium in (the) Gnorp Apologue (go play this game if you haven't already)
My two keywords are: Synergies and Choices. I want you to be able to carefully pick your techs and upgrades to choose both your playstyle and unlock cool synergies.
And there will be flowers!
I'm gonna wrap this up with another thanks for the Youtubers who made very good videos and helped a lot with raising awareness about Idle Colony!
Special shout out to:
Wanderbots who made a great in-depth review.
InterdotGif for an hilarious style!
DarkJedi Plays with a very didactic video.
and Hultutigamer I must say I love hearing Idle Colony said with a Japanese accent!
Finally don't hesitate to hop in the Discord if you want to have a chat!
Thanks for your time,
Cheers
