It's this time of the year again - STEAM AWARDS ARE HERE!

Hey Flippers!

It's this time of the year - just between spooky season and Xmas festival: Steam Awards are happening right here, right NOW, and we've been informed that we're eligible for the Labour of Love category.



Creating House Flipper became not only our day-to-day job but also our biggest passion. We've all built the most creative and supportive community out there, and we're proud to say that our mission was and always will be to give you the content you want. Being a game developer is tough sometimes, but interacting with the players makes a HUGE difference - that's right, YOU matter the world to us.
We might be biased, so it's hard to say whether we're doing a good or a bad job developing the product, but we care, and even after those three incredible years, we still spend hours brainstorming new ideas to make them just perfect. If that's not LOVE, then what is it?

We're not going to tell you to nominate us because you guys are the ones to decide if we're worthy (and we hope we are!) - all we ask you is to participate in the event. Nominate and then vote for the game that deserves it the most in your opinion - and if that game is House Flipper, then we couldn't be happier.

Also, we've prepared some discounts just for you guys, so if you don't have Garden/HGTV DLC yet, here's a treat:

Pets Development Update #4 - new mechanics and more!

Hello there, Flippers and pet lovers!

It's been a while since our last Development Update. We showed you many excellent features, including screenshots of animals (which is not a surprise, actually), Guinea pig's house, bird poo, and more animations. If somehow you missed our recent update, we highly encourage you to check it out, so you can stay up to date with the changes we have made so far. So what can we show you this time?



This time, we will show you some ways to decorate your ceiling and how you can use light bulbs to brighten your house. Also, we will present you with a short GIF showcasing the process of signing a doghouse. What is more, we have also managed to prepare a short behind-the-scenes video, in which you will see the process of creating sounds for our upcoming Pets DLC. Last but not least, our team of developers took part in PGA 2021, where they have presented Pets DLC in action, so if some of you missed this event, this would be a good chance for you to catch up. Without further ado, let's get started!

First of all, we have put some work into making the process of signing a doghouse as comfortable as possible. However, since we have received a lot of great feedback from our community, we would like to ask what you think about it? Feel free to leave your answers in the comment section below. Also, I'm pretty curious whether you already have a name for your pet or not. If so, feel free to share it with us in the comments below.



Second of all, since Pets DLC will bring up dozens of possibilities to make your house cozier, we couldn’t forget about preparing well-suited light bulbs. They are one of the most crucial parts to make your house as comfy as possible. In the video below, you can see just one of the many ways to use them to enlighten your interior environment.



Another thing that we would like to show you in today’s update is about flipping ceilings. As you can see in the video below, there will be a lot of materials at your disposal (in this particular case, we have used ceramic tiles), so we can’t wait to see your creative projects popping off after the release. I hope that in the end, you will have an even bigger smile on your face than the smile painted by our dev.



So far, we have only shown you screenshots, animations, and videos showcasing some mechanics available in the game. However, since our upcoming DLC will put a significant emphasis on being as cheerful as possible, it’s probably high time to show you a short but pretty cool behind-the-scenes video, in which you will be able to see some creative ways that our sound designer used, to create sounds, that will be available in the game.

As you already know, in October our team of developers took part in PGA 2021, where some of you had the opportunity to check the game, leave your feedback and simply give us a high five. We are also aware that some of you weren’t able to attend the event for some reason. Thus, we did our best to prepare a video, which allows you to have a glance at the main features that occurred during the PGA 2021.

That would be it for this Development Update. We will see you in another one, which will be coming in about two months from now. Meanwhile, if you don’t want to miss any future updates regarding HF: Pets DLC, please make sure to follow us on our social media channels. To finish this post, we would like to thank you again for your support, and we hope that you have some lovely time flipping.

If you have any questions for the Frozen Way team, please do not hesitate and leave them in the comments below. We will do our best to answer them all. Meanwhile, we hope you have a fabulous day!

Happy Flipping!
Frozen Way Team!
