Train Valley 2 News

Hello friends! With the release of Update 36 we introduce terraforming events to Train Valley 2 Editor. We hope you will enjoy these features — so we are hosting an additional whole September long contest for your Workshop levels with new halting track construction floods and mountains appearing out of thin air mechanics.

The rules:

• Use the all new Activable objects and Scenarios in your levels - feel free to use a guide we assembled :)
• Submit your creations to Train Valley 2 Workshop
  
• Three levels containing new mechanics will be awarded Steam Wallet funds prizes at the end of September
  
• Levels that do not have Update 36 mechanics will be reviewed and their creators awarded independently on a weekly basis
  

Visit our Discord server to learn more.

Good luck everyone!

New Editor objects!

What is new?

Added terraforming events to the Editor - change water and ground levels on a timer, after a city quest completion or when delivering anything to a station! Here is our Editor terraforming guide.

What is fixed?

• Minor bugfixes.
  

Time-limited contest!

With the introduction of new mechanics to the Editor we announce the start of a new level-design competition starting September 1st — Terraforming Level Of The Month:

• Learn and implement new Activable objects and Scenarios in your levels
  
• Submit your creations to Train Valley 2 Workshop
  
• Three levels will be awarded Steam Wallet funds prizes at the end of September
  
• Levels without new mechanics will be reviewed and awarded separately on a weekly basis
  

Game publishing related developments.

Our friends META Publishing having previously assisted with many under-the-hood processes for Flazm Interactive project Time Loader have recently offered a helping hand with Train Valley games — and we have come to an agreement to join our efforts.
What does that mean for our community? This cooperation changes little for our players - LPT contests, weekly and monthly level reviews, more upcoming content for Train Valley 2 will arrive right on schedule :)

We are looking forward to your feedback and hopefully very few bug reports :) See you in a bit, friends!

Hello friends! Due to the fact that many people are now forced to be at home in quarantine, we decided to add another Let's Play Together competition in the middle of the week. This is an experiment. There can be different crazy levels. There will be no prizes. Perhaps this will last only for the period of forced isolation, but if everyone likes this extra competition format we will make it permanent.

The rules are the same: log in to our Discord server, keep it running, play a competitive level, complete it with 5 stars and have fun!
Visit our Discord server (#lets-play-together channel) to learn more.

This week's level is

Good luck everyone!

Hello friends! Every Friday 17:30 UTC/GMT we hold a “Let’s play together” competition. During next 24 hours everyone is welcome to try and score the best time in a preselected level. Join our Discord server and keep Discord running while playing — your results will be automatically published in the #lets-play-together channel. You need to get 5 stars to qualify.

Glittering prizes include:
1) Top 3 winners receive one random card each. Collect 18 locomotive cards and advance to next set of 6 all new cards! Complete that second set and enter a final tier of 2 very special and super limited cards! Assemble 26 cards and receive a special prize. Easy!
2) Every player registered by our Discord bot has a chance to get a card. The number of cards depends on the number of participants: one additional card for every 10 train connoisseurs on the list. More players means more prizes!

Train Valley 2 Steam Workshop creators delivering new levels at full steam once more :)

Suspiciously perfect Y-shaped mountain formation defines gameplay for the next 23 minutes. We're talking tunnels, pink trees and multitrain speed junctions. Make 4 wrong deliveries, keep an eye on your engine upgrades, anticipate stuffed toy bear black market trend changes — and absolutely no uranium smuggling :)

HONOURABLE MENTION

and

Upgraded and refined, two levels packed with train heavy duty delivery action, developing massive logistics operation, earning much and rediscovering routes and constructing supply chains while surveying untamed yet somehow familiar and bustling with detail landscapes.

Yet another extraterrestrial life-themed level that raises questions like "Are we the first to walk this Earth?" and "What kind of cheese is Moon made of?". We will help supplying a super secret facility with everything a super secret facility needs - rockets and cows among other things :) 25 minutes to wrap it up, tunnels to build, ancient and very pricey monoliths to avoid.

KamikazeBee claims all they wanted was "something chill to play". We think they succeeded in created that something - chill indeed, with just the right difficulty level that comes from supervising several junctions at once — controlling railroad switches and keeping in mind all Passenger Flow colour recipes. Plenty of time and no train crashes, Chill Valley is ultimately not as hectic as it looks — but is satisfying to solve.

Continuing with the chill level trend, SpaceX is all about fulfilling supply requirements. No tricks required. No treacherous terrain to slow you down. Just go ahead and build, connect, upgrade, deliver. A straightforward puzzle, unusual in its delivery yet clear about its message :)

@UnicastProduction is our newest winner! A €10 Steam gift card will be delivered to them by our contact ASAP.

Don't forget to tell us about your TV2 workshop adventures and visit our Discord server for an upcoming LPT challenge. Until next week!
