House Flipper Day 2022 is coming!

Hey Flippers!

We’re thrilled to announce that our first ever House Flipper Day is happening on 15th of December! It’s going to be a regular thing, happening once a year, so make sure you remember that around that time next year!



We have some surprises for you - We don’t want to spoil them just yet, so let me start by announcing our special developer stream - we’ll be playing the upcoming Xmas Update, as well as discussing some new games from Frozen Way. And for those of you who will stay until the very end, we might shed some light on a BIG SURPRISE happening later this month. You guys have been asking for it for quite some time now, so I bet you’ll like it - trust me, it’s going to be nearly as big as the DLC launch.

Come visit us [here] on December 15th, at 6pm CET - expect spoilers, secrets, and giveaways!


Also, our friends just announced Tiny Glade, a small relaxing castle doodling game, where you turn forgotten meadows into lovable dioramas.



If you are longing for some cozy cottagecore-inspired meadows to build in, consider adding it to your Steam wishlist. If you do, tell the Tiny Glade devs we said "hi!" 😁

The Steam Awards are back, and so are the special Autumn discounts!

As every year, Autumn once again fades in like a softly sung hymn. This cozy period between the spooky season and Christmas time brings not only some fancy discounts but also the chance to nominate your favorite games in this year's Steam Awards event!



Another year of House Flipper development is slowly passing by, and with the recent announcement of House Flipper 2, we feel like there's an exciting future ahead of us. Over the last few years, with our players' help, we managed to gather an amazingly creative and supportive community around us, and we're ready for whatever the future brings.

With you guys, we realize that creating the House Flipper franchise is not only a job but also a journey filled with passion, in which we're all Flippers! Thank you for sticking with us!

The voting has just started, and same as last year, we're eligible for the Labour of Love category.
So go out there and participate! Nominate and 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.

Of course, Autumn Sale also hits the Steam Store today, so we've prepared a treat for anyone who'd like to join the flipping family!

House Flipper - let the Steam Scream Fest begin!

Hey Flippers!
It's the spOoOoky season again, and as always, we couldn't just skip our annual update this year! 🎃



For us, this time is about celebrating the Day of the Dead, and Dia de los Muertos is one of the most important festivals in Mexican culture.
Our team isn't Mexican, and so as outsiders, when we started working on this update, we've only seen it as a beautiful and unique way of paying respects to the dead. And sure, that's correct, but there's so much more to it! We're all happy to say that by creating this content, our team got to better understand the meaning behind the Mexican Day of the Dead. We encourage you to read about it as well - you won't regret it!

Also, for those of you, who're after even more spookiness, we've added an additional house this year, with a bit different, more of a gaming inspiration... get in the game and guess what this inspiration is! 👻


And here are a couple of changes you can expect to see in the game today:
  • A new Dia de Los Muertos-themed job.
  • A new, totally normal house. We promise you a pleasant flipping experience.
  • New seasonal items, including Dia de Los Muertos figurines, cat o'lanterns, rugs, and leaves.
  • A new Bessie plushie. 👀
  • If anyone is offering you balloons from under your mat, please ignore them.


More info on patch notes and any reported issues can be found in the Patch Notes & Reported Issues - Halloween Update [25 October] topic on our Steam Discussions.


We're hoping you'll have as much fun including the new content in your interior designs as we had while working on this update!

Have fun flipping!

Welcome to the new era of flipping!

Flippers!
Honestly, I have no idea how to start this announcement, as the excitement is simply waaay too much!
This is the first one that you're going to see on the House Flipper 2 Steam page, so feel free to find yourself a nice comfortable spot, and join us on this long-awaited presentation of the game.

Today we can finally shed some light on a title that is really something extraordinary for everyone here at Frozen District, and hopefully for all the House Flipper fans scattered around the globe.
The first House Flipper 2 trailer just went live, and even though it is showcasing a very early, pre-alpha version of the game, there's definitely a lot to be excited about.

We would like to welcome you, to the new era of flipping!

Now... that's not all!
You probably know how at Frozen District, we always emphasize the fact that essentially, the community of House Flipper is kind of a fuel for us, the developers of the game. A playerbase that shows not only incredible amounts of passion for the game but also provides new ideas, suggestions, and feedback, is just golden! We always knew that listening to the voice of our community is a step toward the right direction... and look how far we've come! We're so proud, not only of ourselves but also proud of all the Flippers who's been with us on this remarkable journey.

That is why we would like to ask you guys to join us in the process of developing House Flipper 2.
We are thrilled to announce an upcoming series of House Flipper 2 developer blogs where we're going to provide lots of insight into what we're currently working on. You can expect showcases of various aspects of the development process, as well as getting to know the developers behind them. Lots of juicy details included!

As an ending note, we want to let you know that we're lucky to be a part of EGX 2022 happening in London, where we're presenting a demo version of House Flipper 2. It's simply a delight to see flippers come up to us and share their experience with the game, so come meet us if you're around!




Once again, big thanks to all of the Flippers. You're the best!
Stay tuned, and we hope to talk to you soon.

Have a fantastic weekend!

Farm DLC Devlog #3 - Farm DLC releases in March 2023!

Howdy, Flippers 👋

We have something BIG for you today!

THE RELEASE DATE OF THE FARM DLC IS SET, Flippers, so be ready in March 2023 to build, plant, gather, relax, and much more! Furthermore, we’re all excited to share the new trailer with you. No tickets are needed what's left is to sit, watch, and enjoy. Every opinion would be an asset, so throw them at us in the comments. 🎬

Also, you can now take a look at House Flipper 2's steam page - don't forget to wishlist the sequel if you like what you see, duh! 🔥



Once the dust settles, let’s proceed. It’s been a little over a month since the last House Flipper Farm DLC – development update, so we’d like to thank you for your feedback, opinions, and warm words under the latest devlog. Now’s the time to jump into the news section.

WHAT’S NEW?

Today, we’d like to present some of our work in progress. From enviro, through the minimap, new mechanic, new animation, and more. All right, it’s time for some farming!

MECHANICS

As you can see, we’ve implemented an inventory on your tablets! With this freshly new and still-in-progress feature, you can store all your collections in one place.



In addition to the new inventory, we implemented an option to take out a certain amount of your crops and then collect them at once. Aren’t those top-class potatoes? Have you spotted more veggies *wink? 🥔



It’s nap time!

We've thought that some of you'd like to change the time for your daily flipping routine. That’s why we’d like to present a brand-new feature we’re constantly working on. Now, you choose the time, click the button, and wake up at the specific moment. Check it on your own and tell us what options you saw.



If you’ve rested enough, let’s make a trip around the map. As you can see, we’ve prepared for you a spacious landscape based on climatic gold plains with coniferous forests to create a farming vibe.



If you’re curious about the whereabouts of this environment, we come with aid. Take a look at the minimap, from where you can choose the jobs to do.



ITEMS

For a better view, we’ve prepared a set of new unique windows to make your apartments modern and stylish. It’s a fresh idea but has changed a lot. Let’s stop walking for a moment and try to relax while drinking tea and looking outside the house.



How do you like the animation?



Ever wanted to be a rockstar? Now it’s possible with our new rocking chairs! Now even you can feel that swinging vibe and sing your favorite songs while chilling on the porch.



We’ve heard your voice that you lack kitchen tools, so it pushed us to make some for you. Can you feel a fresh floating aroma in your rooms? So we do! With our mixer, whisk, wooden spoon, and more, you can spice up your dining rooms a bit.



Pssst: Wanna taste something sweet? We have some little jars with homemade preserves. They’re waiting for you to place them in your house and put some warmth and a sentimental childhood feeling.



So, that would be it for today’s development update. We hope that you liked our little showcase. We'd like to remind you that the game release will be in March 2023, so stay tuned for future information. You can always follow our game, add us to your wishlist on our Steam page, and follow our social media channels to keep up to date.
