Weekly Winner - October 10th


Read on and find out more about latest (and hopefully not spooky) Workshop submissions:

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2872781179

A sequel to https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2865514365 and a lot more frantic one at that :) A bit of a lucky start would be welcome-it's a Passenger Flow train valley after all-, but it isn't a particularly difficult puzzle per se. Rather, everything happens so fast and at such a high speed you will be better off restarting in case something goes less than optimal. Try avoiding building a tunnel for additional challenge, 12:00, DNRT.

A triple sequel to https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2629058901
The Vengeance of DooM could strike at any moment, all is not what it seems and numbers mean nothing. Terraforming actively sabotaging your railway network, at least 10 000 000 TV2$ to accrue, connecting every industry and designing junctions in very limited spaces, not getting spooked-there is a lot to take care of and only 35:30 on the timer.
Granted, there is an Easy version https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2871837939 - earn just 5 000 000 TV2$, build 5 or more tunnels, same timers -
with faster funds accumulation and altered layout that offers a warmup of sorts while hinting at possible ways of solving the original.
And then there's https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2871856440 with same requirements as Easy yet a bit different layout from the first two variants. Hard in several ways, DooM's Revenge offer that sense of satisfaction that comes with finishing something challenging.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2872964873
Planning train routes and optimizing your deliveries schedule while watching your shiny engines drive back and forth right through the evil pumpkin’s seeds and slimy stuff-welcome to Evil Pumpkin's Hub :) Tracks inside the spooky vegetable lantern are independent, there's 16:00 on the timer and the Spider factory is waiting for another Potatoes shipment. A fun, replayable, LPT'ed adventure.

Great job once again @LittleBear, your €10 Steam gift card is on its way! Please stand by for a message from our award distribution department.

Weekly Winner - October 3rd


We hope the autumn season is treating you well. Let's talk Workshop levels.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2870390562

An attempt to keep Workers in the supply chain as much as possible, Worker Recycling trades decorations for increased resistance to being solved at the first attempt-a 20:00 excercise in not reversing your trains, navigating numerous Disassembling Factories and counting your resources :)

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2869056033

We are to look for a way to raise additional funds. Delivery quests, supplying every industry in the valley with Workers, taking your freshly emitted Bonds to the Bank, not upgrading the engines-in an economy like that a 2 tunnels limit and no train crashes seem like very reasonable objectives.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2869312544

This time around Toll Stations prevent us from earning a single TV2$ for delivering Workers to an industry. A finely tuned puzzle with resources coming in batches of 5 and easy to track Market prices-an economy that is easy to ruin by overspending yet quick to analyze and find thy error, a Power shortcut worth investing into during later stages of the game and terraced layout that visually separates the valley and presents an extra railway track planning task. There's a 128 track limit in effect, no demolition jobs allowed and a 18:00 timer. LPT'ed.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2869475686

A colourful maze-looking puzzle of many delivery quests, free renewable Power, generous 35:00 timers, hills unfit for tunnel construction that force us to work around them, zero tolerance for wrong deliveries and vanilla Train Valley 2 campaign vibes-almost feels like 2018 again :)

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2868347096

A challenging journey to a blooming biotech paradise amidst the ruined scorched wastes. Surrounding communities expect Potatoes and Buggies-and hidden Hyperloop shortcut is just what one needs to restart local industry. Begin by accommodating 35 Passenger Flow trains, comply with the DNRT objective, keep the Oil flowing, explore additional routes and remember you only have 16:30 :) LPT'ed.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2867789288

A Christmas before actual Christmas? Where do I sign? :) We need to boost candy output rates in a secret candy production facility located right next to what looks like the biggest gingerbread house on the planet. It's 10:30 on the timer-and we do not have time for engine upgrades or demolition jobs; stock up on candies and punch and send these favorite Christmas treats everywhere using gingerbread container ships! A neat little adventure that goes well with a cup of hot chocolate :)
