[h2]Redesign of the most crucial part in the game - the Record Page! 🎉[/h2]
Until now, you had to switch between vlogs section and games section (not to mention confusing tabs and special features like DigCraft or TubeStim 😵‍💫)

Now everything will be conveniently at the tip of your hand!

• List of all video types you can record in one place
  
• A special recent tab that will list out the videos/series you recently recorded
  

And to nicely wrap it up, there’s going to be added a feature of recording special one-time videos such as a celebration of your first 100 subscribers! What’s a better excuse to pop a champagne? 🍾



[h2]“…but wait, there’s more!”[/h2]
After recording a video (especially a milestone special) it’s mandatory to make it catch an eye, right? It would be a shame for all your hard work to be seen by just 7 people (and one of these are your parents) so it’s about time to make your videos more ✨unique✨. Now every video will have an exclusive thumbnail!

• Fully-featured thumbnail generator
  
• Ability to change the thumbnails - don’t like the one you see? Simply randomize a new one!
  
• Over the course of the game you will unlock more appealing thumbnail designs
  

[h2]All aboard the hype-train, next station: Feature Reveal week 3![/h2]
Don’t have your ticket? No worries, you can get one at https://discord.gg/TubeTycoon! Now hurry up before it departures :TTPROFESSOR:

We know you have a bunch of question regarding upcoming Tube Tycoon updates and since we want to answer as many of them as it’s possible-

This Friday we will be hosting a live Q&A session where you will be able to ask the Tube Tycoon creator - Bionicl himself - anything that’s been wandering on your mind regarding the game! 🎉🎉

[h2]The plan 📜:[/h2]

• We will start off with a 15 min demo of the Tube Tycoon v2 Beta 1 - get a sneak peek of what’s coming!
  
• Then we will move on to 30 min of answering your questions - anything not clear? Ask on chat or via voice :TTPROFESSOR:
  

[h2]Where?[/h2]

That depends on your needs! Best way is to join our DISCORD where you will be able to interact via both text and voice chat….
buuut in case you find talking to someone on the other side of the screen overwhelming - or you don’t have a Discord account and neither want to set it up - we got you! The whole Q&A will also be streamed to Youtube ːTubeTycoonː



[h2]When?[/h2]

The event will happen at 7 pm CEST. Wanna know when exactly that is? You can join our Discord to mark that you’re interested in the announcement to be reminded right when it starts off! or check any of those timezone conversion websites but that’s a secondary option..ʲᵒᶦⁿᵒᵘʳᵈᶦˢᶜᵒʳᵈʲᵒᶦⁿᵒᵘʳᵈᶦˢᶜᵒʳᵈʲᵒᶦⁿᵒᵘʳᵈᶦˢᶜᵒʳᵈ :TealFire:



[h2]That’s all for today TubeTycooners! See you at the Q&A![/h2]

[h2]Ready to jump on a hype train? Here we gooooo~~[/h2]
So far you had one and only goal in Tube Tycoon - to become the no. 1 channel in the world. Well… that could prove to be tiring and thus not everyone was always able to accomplish this colossal challenge.

Here comes some help! :TTPROFESSOR:

Now from the very beginning you will have a full load of small challenges to complete. Meet a new mechanic (that will replace milestones) → 🎉 Tasks 🎉



Think of them as side quests in your favorite RPG game - what do these quests have that everyone loves? Rewards! But these are a mystery in this case 🤫 Complete the tasks to receive varying rewards!

[h2]Talking about the story…[/h2]
…I am happy to confirm that Tube Tycoon v2 will now have a FULL STORY LINE! Throughout your gameplay you will meet new characters, unlock new video types to record and most importantly learn more about the behind-the-scenes of TubeVideo platform!



[h2]“No way! I can’t wait for the next week’s feature reveal!”[/h2]
Don’t worry I hear you :TealFire: But as the good ol’ quote goes: “good things come to those who wait” so I hope to see you next week, keep that hype train running for a few more stations! 😄

Hey! Psst.. Over here! You don’t know me yet but listen, I heard that they have more people hyped up about this whole “release thing” on something called Discord.. now I have no idea what that is but I’ve also got this thing: https://discord.gg/TubeTycoon. I guess you’ll know better what to do with that than me… See you on the TubeVideo!

So it's finally happening! I've been secretly working on TubeTycoon v2.0 for some time and I've got just enough done to share a little bit 👀 but not so fast-

[h2]In the meantime~[/h2]
To keep everyone up to date with what's being implemented, over the next few weeks I'll be posting a list of everything new coming to the Beta 1.

[h2]OMG OMGOMGO WHATT!!1!!1[/h2]
Yes, you read that right! The long awaited update Tube Tycoon v2 is finally going to see the light of the day; and what day is that you ask?

🎉 The April 24th! 🎉

So make sure to mark it in your calendar, as you definitely don't want to miss it!

[h2]MARKED! What do I do when it releases?![/h2]
As it is going to be a beta release - which means voluntary participation - it's good to recap on how you can play once it comes out :smile:
1. Navigate to your Steam library
2. Right-click on Tube Tycoon
3. Click on "Properties", then "Betas"
4. Once the Beta 1 launches, you will be able to select it from the dropdown menu and start downloading! :TTPROFESSOR:



[h2]Are you ready to claim that shiny Diamond TubeButton? See you at the TubeVideo![/h2]

Hey there!
Thank you all for great two weeks of testing Tube Tycoon Editor BETA 🎉 - We've gathered lots of feedback and ideas to make this tool even better!

Here are today's patch notes:
- Added scenario settings tab - edit appearance and preview it in new game window
- Various graphic changes, changed left sidebar design for better readability
- Hover on event/video to remove or duplicate
- Left sidebar is now scrollable - especially for larger files with lots of events and videos!
- When creating new event/video, first field is now focused to change it's name quickly and scrolls to top

That update does not bring a lot to editor, but changes a lot in code and prepares for future functionality!

[h2]How to roll in?[/h2]

To take part in the beta, you’ll need to to select beta branch in steam properties:
1. Open Steam, navigate to Tube Tycoon
2. Click settings icon and then “properties”
3. Select “beta testing” tab and from dropdown select “EditorBeta”
Now, the game should be updated with the new editor. PLEASE TAKE A NOTE, that this beta disables gameplay completely - if you’d like to play Tube Tycoon with all your previous saves, repeat the steps and and on the last step select “NONE”

[h2]Feedback[/h2]

You are welcome to leave a feedback of your experience with the editor. Please use this link and tell us what do you think about newest beta: FEEDBACK FORM
A few players that will fill out the form and help with Tube Tycoon development, will get a chance to take part in closed beta tests of upcoming Tube Tycoon v2.0
