This is a very dynamic level that requires maximum concentration from the player. It is an unusual and pretty map. We liked the clever use of hyperloops. We also like the fresh idea and the short duration of this level.

We got a lot of good levels from our longtime author @The Good, The Bad and The Dudley. And it is this level that best demonstrates the principle of a constant shortage of resources invented by him. For this, Dudley very accurately calculated and tuned the order of the appearance of new colored stations ‒ they are always ahead of your possibilities and put you before the choice: to buy a bridge or a train? Great job, maestro, €20 Steam gift card is yours!

The best gameplay was shown by @Yokuyin.

But in addition to excellent gameplay, we enjoyed the decoration of this level. The earth seems to be painted with watercolors with its smooth gradients, and factories and colored stations are precisely color-matched to their locations. This level is carefully thought out in every detail and we unanimously awarded the victory to it. Congratulations, @Yokuyin! We are happy to give you a €30 Steam gift card.

In addition, we would like to highlight the level of @striker700 in a special nomination.

Great design and unusual use of decorative objects! We enjoyed looking at this map. Thank you for this work, we give you a €10 Steam gift card.

We also liked another work of @h2onik.

This is a simple and excellent demonstration of the mechanics of colored trains. We believe that everyone who has not tried colored stations should start from this level.

It was a great contest! We want to say a big thank you to all the authors. You are incredibly talented people! We wish to see your new levels in the workshop. See you later!

Level of the Month - October 2019

Hello friends! October has ended unexpectedly, which means it's time to name the level of the month. There were a lot of new works in the workshop, twice as many as in September, and we are pleased to present to you the winner.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1898630751
Picturesque Swiss Alps, turbulent waterfalls and fast trains ‒ this is a good recipe from @Gaztibelza. Climbers are based high in the mountains and they need food supplies. At the same time, ordinary life bustles below. The set of productions and gameplay together harmoniously illustrate this story. We thank @Gaztibelza and are happy to present €30 Steam gift card. Congratulations!

Very soon we will summarize the October colored trains level contest, but for now ‒ go to the workshop and choose your favorite. See you later!
