Train Valley 2 News

Hello! This is the Choo-Choo Weekly with a lot of excellent levels. The last week of our July level design contest has begun. Excitement is at fever pitch! We remind you that simple levels with a duration of no more than 10 minutes are eligible for victory. Levels are shorter, our newspaper is longer. Let's take a look at the new list of talented works!

@BenGotham made two parts of an unusual level featuring a huge pile of waste. An interesting idea gave rise to unusual gameplay: you cannot switch hidden arrows, resources will go to the station from which the last train with workers arrived. Excellent!

A cute level by @h2onik about creatures looking for something new and better. As we all do. There are many tunnels there.

@fuegodemalo's debut level. Engineers are stuck among the cliffs. Meanwhile, the magma level rises. You have to build an elevator faster. Remember: the floor is magma!

Very beautiful map from Romania. You must solve the riddle and find out how to open the chest with endless supplies of gold. Then you have to deliver sacrifices and wealth to That Castle on top of the rock. At every step, rustling black wings chase you and you cannot stop for a second: no pause, no train stops! The paths are winding and it seems that danger awaits you around every corner. Great job, @Spider [RO]!

Nice minimalist level by @dickeyj2316. You need a lot of sand, everything here will be made of sand! Do not mix up routes, because you cannot turn trains around. Great July map, @dickeyj2316!

Simple relaxing map by @Gelledee. You train engineers among huge geometric shapes. We advise you to pay attention to the green plus: a useful tunnel can be built there.

A very interesting level with a large fortress by @LittleBear. There are many passages through the walls and you will have to find the best routes. Great gameplay. Featured!

@embRellish made his first test level for a friend. This person was very lucky: he got an interesting variable level with excellent gameplay. If this is just a test, what would your elaborated levels look like, @embRellish? We will be happy to see them. Great job!

Finally, another debut work! @Phil.方阵 took a non-standard approach to the game and invites you to try 3 types of powerplants. Timing is pretty hard here, so you'll have to make a few tries before you find the best solution. Interesting design, good art. A €10 Steam gift card is yours!

Friends, for the last few months Choo-Choo Weekly has been published only on the forum and on Discord. We've returned to the news section so that you don't miss new issues. You can find previous issues in this thread. See you!

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

The rules are the same: log in to our Discord server, keep it running, play a competitive level and complete it with 5 stars. Have fun!

Hello! The July special level design contest is in full swing, but we have a debt - to give the prize for the best level in June. It was an interesting month, many good levels were uploaded to our workshop. As usual, we should choose only one and today we don’t doubt our choice for a second. Meet The Chicago (Hyper-) Loop!

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2130794943
Fantastic detail, you can print a screenshot of this level and hang it on the wall instead of a city map. Everything is thought out to the smallest detail. Bridges and hyperloops are interchangeable, you have many routes and the main task is to keep track of all trains. Very deep work. @mishalunchbox, a €30 Steam gift card is yours! Congratulations!

In June, we celebrated the 1000th level in the workshop, and we believe that in July there will be much more. The theme of our July special contest is minimalism. We are sure that each player can make a level for this contest. We are waiting for your works, friends!
