Farm DLC Devlog #5 – Another house? New Character? IS THAT A PIGGY?!

Howdy, fellow Flippers! 🚜

We’re back with our development update a little faster this time, and we’ve got some good stuff around the corner! I’ve always wanted to make an overview of our project, so I guess this time has finally come.

Furthermore, I'd like to add that in this DLC you'll get a lot of farmer-themed features, not just typical items and jobs. You'll be able to do even more things around your house and immerse yourself in the farming life to the fullest.

However, before we proceed to the main course, I’d love to thank you for your comments and honest opinion on the latest news. It means a lot and helps us focus on things you find important.. Feel free to give us feedback this time as well.

Without further ado, let the show begin!


[h3]New House[/h3]

You must be curious about what’s inside this suburban-looking brick house. Aren’t you? I can’t tell you everything, but be prepared for some tasty, foodie-flipping job! I feel it’s going to go viral on the owner's YouTube channel.

[h3]New character[/h3]

That's Lily. You could’ve seen her on our social media channels, but for those who didn’t let me introduce her.
She is known as a perfect wife and a pretty good rancher. But her precious cow, Molly, got lost. As though that's not enough, her barn got damaged. It seems, flippers, that your help is needed.

[h3]Mechanics[/h3]

The leaves have fallen, and it’s pretty messy in your backyard. The best thing you can do is to blow them away. Why not use our new tool? Especially for occasions like this, we’ve prepared a Leaf Blower. Make your garden a little windy, and let the leaves fly away!

Oh no, Flippers, look! It was so sunny just a few minutes ago! Now it's raining everywhere. Let's wear a coat so we won’t get wet!
As you can see, immersion is one of our goals and that's why we've made a dynamic weather system. There will be a few weather conditions, but now let's enjoy those chill raindrops.

Alright, guys, I don't know what to say... This thing totally blindsided us. The grappling hook jumped out of nowhere in the latest devlog, and you fell in love with it. And here it is! The tool is in its full glory. Let’s jump around and tell us how you like it.

Take a deep breath, and imagine a warm evening on your farm. You chill on your balcony while taking in the scenery. Sounds pretty cool, right?
Thanks to our new mechanic, now it's possible. Try to redecorate your outside walls and make more space for our brand new feature. Take a look through the window and see what's outside. We're curious how you like it – the comment section is yours.

But that’s not all! If you want to change the way they look, try putting some panels on them.


Oink…
Oh, sorry, it’s just my piggy. Want to know what is so special about it? She has a keen eye for truffles. In addition to its pink skin and twisted tail, she can also find diamonds among mushrooms.

PS: Oh, how I could've forgotten. Every animal in the Farm DLC will give you a special kind of resource!




[h3]Items[/h3]

And last but not least, We’ve prepared some new items that will increase your immersion while playing our DLC.

We need more HORSE power! That's why we've made those obstacles for you to test your skills! Jump over them and have fun playing jockey!



After the fun, there is always time for resting. Take your horse back to its box and let it chill until the next adventure.



We didn't forget about our lovely hens! They're excited about their new houses! I personally love their little homes, and I wonder if you find them just as charming as I do. Let me know in the comments below.



Please, don’t hang up yet. I know I’ve already flooded you with awesome new stuff, but do you have a minute to talk about your car’s… I mean, your solar panels’ extended warranty?



Why don’t you take a look at the kitchen? Those shelves are begging you to put some jars on them.

Farm DLC Devlog #4 – A new house is ready. So is the drone!

Howdy, fellow Flippers 👨‍🌾

I know it's been a while since our development update, but we're back! Last time you've seen a lot of new features and, most importantly, our new trailer. By any chance, If you haven't seen it yet, you can watch it HERE ⬅️

However, first things first. We'd love to thank you for your comments under the last devlog. They're much appreciated, and we're constantly checking and analyzing them. We'd love to hear more from you again, so the comment section is yours.

Let's not waste more time and begin our journey through the fresh news!

What's new


[h2]House/Job
[/h2]
Guys, we can't hide it anymore. There's a job to be done! Get ready for work with the new house we've prepared for you. Clinch the deal and help us complete the renovation. I can't say more, but a little bird told me that a forest ranger is involved.



[h2]Environment[/h2]

Let me share some arcane behind-the-scenes knowledge with you now. One does not simply walk into our enviro. That's why I've smuggled out the top-secret footage of a dev hiking through it. It's a once-in-a-lifetime chance for you to see how beautiful it is out there. Join me on this little journey. Enjoy the view, and let us know how you like it.



[h2]Mechanics&Tools[/h2]

I hope you're not afraid of heights because we're working on something that can change your point of view. In our minds, there was one idea: we can't wait to see how creative you get with this tool! Ladies and gents, we'd love to present a flying drone with photo-shooting ability! Harvest your creativity, and use it to take some pictures.



After you end your creative photography, you can place the fruit of your labor wherever you want! You'll find it in your gallery.



Okay, folks. It is a little unexpected, but we've come up with an idea you might like to see. We still consider if we want to implement it into the game, but before that, we've wanted to know your opinion. I've seen a lot of comments that ladders are too clunky, slow, and simply do not give the hard-working flipper a good time. In a stroke of genius the idea for a grappling hook came at us with its fast-as-light awesomeness! If we add it to the game, you'll be able to move freely like never before.



On your farm, you will have cows, chickens, and even pigs! That's right, we're bringing you all these classic farm animals, like Old McDonald once said: Ee i ee i o.
As a good farmer, you'll need to take care of your animals. That's why we thought it would be awesome if you could make them happy. Just take a look at that piggy, Oink! 🤩



[h2]Items[/h2]

Let the Flippers flip the floors. Let the Flippers flip the walls.
They connect at a 90-degree angle. One does not function without the other. Floors and walls are friends forever. That's why we've prepared numerous variations of them for those who want to change their houses from top to bottom. Keep in mind that it's just a tiny taste of things to come!



Ahhh, this development update is slowly coming to an end. Last but not least, we'd love to share one extra thing. Long awaited gradient set is coming! For all those who love to paint, we've got a sneak peek at our beautiful new paints. My favorite is blue, or maybe green. I don't know. It's difficult to pick favorites from amongst your own children! Can you choose your fav? Remember that it's not the whole set; there is more to come!



[h2]Keep up with the latest news and posts[/h2]

Before we end, we've got pretty cool news for ya! The premiere of House Flipper Pets VR is set! Be ready in 15TH OF DECEMBER to pet your virtual animals, flip the houses in multiplayer mode, and much more!

[Click here to check out House Flipper Pets VR's devlog!]

So, that would be it for today's update, ladies and gents. I hope you had fun while reading about new stuff, and look forward to the future. There is much to come, but we'd love to know what part of our game so far is your favorite. Let us know in the comment section, and keep an eye on our social media channels and Steam page for upcoming news.
