Summer Islands News

it is time. We would like to proudly present the Map Editor:



There you can:

• create a map
  
• Customize these
  
• Construct a building for Player0
  

and last but not least

• Make many settings
  
• create your own events:
  

i.e. conditions when an event should start and which events should occur

We are very happy that the first architecture has been implemented and we can build on it.
The goal is to be able to build campaigns from it and upload them to the Steam Workshop ;)

Small Video for Events

So test the map editor, look forward to the future updates and have FFUUUUUNNNNN with your maps.

Additionally there is something to celebrate: Exactly one year ago, at the beginning of summer

21.06.2019

we released Summer Islands on Steam in Early Access. We are happy that we have made it so far with your support. We know that there is still a lot to do. But for today we can take a moment of joy and enj oy the beautiful sight of the many updates of the last months.

We would like to thank you very much for your support, your emails and your comments.
We still have some bugs to fix and some features to work on and hope that you will continue to support us in the future.


We wish you a lot of fun with the new update.

in this update there is unfortunately not so much new content. This has the following reasons:

• A lot of work in our day job
  
• Training in our day job
  
• Preparations for a major update to our 1 year Early Access on 21.06.2020
  

We are looking forward to the integration of the Steam Workshop and the Map Editor with many options.
Also the occasion of our one year anniversary in Early Access here on Steam is celebrated with it.

A big thank you to all of you!
You have brought us so far with your feedback, your help, your support!
But more about this in the next update ;)
