House Flipper News

[h2]Hello, Flippers![/h2][p][/p][p]Lucas Utne here. The temperature outside has dropped, turning the suburbs into a frozen, barren landscape. Uff da. But do not worry, as we say it, det ordner seg. It will work out. I have put on my thickest wool sweater, brewed strong coffee, and I am ready to bring some Nordic order to this chaos.[/p][p]Mid-December is the perfect time to stay inside and make things koselig - that special kind of cozy you only feel when safe from the storm. Let us bring some warmth to your screens, ikke sant?[/p][p][/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p]Check out our latest video devlog above for a deep dive into House Flipper Remastered Collection! However, we know what you've really been waiting to hear. [/p][p][/p][hr][/hr][p][/p][h2]House Flipper Remastered Collection - Pricing[/h2][p][/p][p]The price for the House Flipper Remastered Collection has been fixed at $49.99.[/p][p]Furthermore, owners of all current DLCs will receive a special bonus granting them:[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]But that’s not all! 🛠️[/p][p]Those aren't the only deals coming your way. We’re preparing a special, smaller discount for the completionists out there who own all the major DLCs but are missing the Furniture Packs.[/p][p]Plus, if you only own House Flipper 1 or House Flipper 2, keep your eyes peeled—we will have a small discount coming just for you too![/p][hr][/hr][p][/p][h2]House Flipper Franchise Sale[/h2][p][/p][p]Ja, winter is expensive, but games should not be. While House Flipper Remastered Collection is still under construction (good design takes time), we are having a massive sale. It is the perfect chance to pick up DLCs to the original House Flipper and other titles. Treat yourself to something nice while you wait for us.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][hr][/hr][h2]
The Remastered Collection: Pure Efficiency[/h2][p][/p][p]You ask, "Lucas, what is this Collection?" It is simple: it is the complete experience, rebuilt from the ground up. The original House Flipper had, well, structural limits. We could not move walls that were holding up the roof. To give you the features you asked for, we had to build a completely new foundation.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]This is a full-scale rework. The base game and all DLCs merged into one sleek, unified product.[/p]

• [p]The Look: We added a completely new lighting system. It looks majestic, as we want the atmosphere to be perfect.[/p]
• [p]The Stability: We are fixing the uff da save-file issues from the past. A house must stand firm. Ensuring the game runs smoothly is our top priority.[/p]
• [p]The Inventory: We have packed the crates with over 800 new items. You cannot design a proper home with empty hands. From sleek modern to warm rustic, you finally have the variety to fill every corner and make it truly koselig.[/p]
• [p]The New Jobs: 6 brand new jobs and houses for sale crafted with love
• [p]The Quality of Life: We made many improvements to make your work smoother. For example, you requested an extra save slot, so we added it. Now you can experiment with daring designs without losing your safe haven.[/p]
• [p]The Completeness: The base game plus EVERY released DLC in a single package.[/p]
• [p]The Price: If you already own House Flipper and all its DLCs, the upgrade will cost you around $20. Considering the amount of new content exceeds many full DLCs, this is a very fair deal.[/p]

[p][/p][hr][/hr][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]We originally planned to open the doors for playtests in late November. But we looked at the details and said 'Nei.' It was not polished enough. You cannot rush good design.[/p][p]We are moving the playtests to February. We need this time to perfect the optimization. When the demo arrives, we want you to test it thoroughly to see how your machine handles the new lighting and graphics. Better to wait a few months for a sturdy home than to move into a drafty one, ikke sant?[/p][p][/p][p]To reserve your spot for the pleytests, visit our Steam page and click the "Request Access" button.[/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink]I simply cannot wait to hear your thoughts. You are excited, yes?[/p][p][/p][hr][/hr][h2]House Comparison: Then vs. Now[/h2][p][/p][p]Look at the difference. The original was... acceptable. But the Remastered version? Akkurat. The lighting is softer, the textures are richer. It finally feels like a home.
[/p][p][/p][hr][/hr][h2]
UV Flashlight: See What Was Hidden[/h2][p][/p][p]Dirt likes to hide. I do not like dirt. We have added a new UV flashlight tool. Now, you can spot every stain and spot that needs cleaning immediately. No more guessing. It makes the cleaning process precise and satisfying.
[/p][p][/p][hr][/hr][h2]
Variant Selector Upgrade[/h2][p][/p][p]We have upgraded the Variant Selector to be much smoother. It is a simple change, but powerful. You can now browse and apply item variants immediately while you decorate. No more menu diving, no more wasted clicks. It allows you to focus purely on the design, making the renovation process as sleek as the furniture you are placing.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][hr][/hr][p][/p][h2]Mage Hut Potions[/h2][p][/p][p]Even a wizard needs good interior design. We have updated the potions in the Mage Hut. The glass reflects light beautifully now, and the magical effects are much more impressive. Oi! Be careful not to knock them over.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][hr][/hr][p][/p][h2]Beautiful Winter Decor[/h2][p][/p][p]You cannot survive the cold without the right supplies. We have added new winter-themed graphics and items to the game. Perfect for making your renovation project feel warm and inviting, regardless of the climate outside.[/p][p][/p][carousel][/carousel][p][/p][hr][/hr][p][/p][p][/p][p]Renovating is hard work, especially in this climate. You need a place to rest your tools and share your blueprints. Our Discord is like a warm cabin in the middle of a snowstorm - organized, welcoming, and very koselig.[/p][p][/p][p]Whether you are still fixing up the original houses or preparing for the sleek updates of the Remastered Collection, the door is open. Come in from the cold, warm your hands, and let us talk design. And if you’re curious to learn more about our other upcoming titles like Farmbotic, Honeycomb: The World Beyond or Salvage Shop Simulator - we have plenty of exciting news to share about those, too.[/p][p] [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Ha det bra,[/p][p]~ Lucas and Frozen Way Team[/p]
