Bid Wars DLC Production Update

Hello Barn Finders,

We are more than excited after the launch of the new addition to the Barn Finders family - the Bid Wars DLC. We worked very hard to give you some new and fresh experience while still keeping the good old Barn Finders vibe. We saw your playthroughs, we hear your comments and first of all, we also see your reviews. We know that some of you wanted some good old fashioned Barn Finders experience and the new DLC is not exactly in their taste - we get that and we listen to your feedback very closely. So, here are few things we will be doing in the next few days / weeks:

  1. Focusing on DLC bugfixing - we know some of the music is not affected by options, there are some issues with achievements, various small fixes here and there.
  2. Improving the onboarding experience with additional tutorials for interaction with box, crafting etc.
  3. We are preparing some nice surprises for all the players of the base game, but inspired by the Bid Wars - be ready for some in-game goodies.
  4. We are preparing the plan for bigger improvements to the DLC, but we need some time to figure it out fully.


As you can see, we are fully committed to improve your experience and to see the Bid Wars island the way we saw it, both in design and in the production phase. We believe in what we prepared and hopefully you enjoy it the way we do.

And if you do (and only then)- we would kindly ask you to leave a positive review - it would greatly help us and motivate us for all the times ahead.

Once again, thank you for playing the Bid Wars DLC - and see you on an island!

BarnFinders: Bid Wars DLC - devlog #5

M.I.K.K.O. raport

A game tester from the M.I.K.K.O headquarters has arrived at Duality Games' office. Long story short - the DLC passed M.I.K.K.O certification, and below we present excerpts from the notes that were included in the official report.

“DAY 1, morning

Noon:
Okay, the auction called Bid Wars Theme Park is organized by someone named M.I.K.K.O Man and Uncle Billy. Where are the auctions, that were promised? Oh, they are already available in the tutorial.

Afternoon:
Well, this isn't exactly what I remember as a Barn Finders experience... Different but still nice auctions. Who knows what we might find in the container. But, let's keep going with the sales. It's time to start earning some money.
Ah reckon ain't gonna finish this DLC 'fore dinner time. Night:
Alright, it's time to return to the cabin on the Stinky Tuna. It's fortunate that I don't have to run all over the map, but can instead use the teleporter to get to Pocket Dimension and then sleep in the cabin from there.

DAY 2, Dusk shine:

In total there are three zones here, each featuring three auctions, ensuring there is no boredom. I must pay closer attention to the prices of the items as they will come in handy for the quizzes.

DAY 3, Noon shine
I managed to put together a "Special Kind of Disco" set and sent out the reward. I combined several items in a shower tube and sent it to Sebastian. I earned $2000 net profit. I still have 65 sets left to gather.
Well y'all, I reckon I ain't gonna finish that DLC fer supper tonight.

DAY 5, Sun shine
During the intermission between auctions, I can browse the gathered posters in the foyer. Each poster reveals a story about M.I.K.K.O's secret expedition.
mumbo jumbo bullshit A wise and instructive tale.

DAY 6, Moon shine,
Yesterday I spent the whole day in the Pocket dimension. I assembled M.I.K.K.O. sets from auctioned items. I sell each set for 3 times more than if I sold the items separately.
DAY 7, Moon shine,
Oh no, the storage for the auctioned items is full. I will immediately purchase two extra areas for potties. I should have enough Bid Coins to unlock the Adventure area tomorrow.

DAY 12, Moon shine,
I have unlocked another zone, but I have spent all my Bid coins. I will have to sell some of my most valuable items to make up for it. I still have 30 more sets to assemble.
I'm fixin' to add some overtime to my shift. DAY 30. Moonshine, Noon shine, Sun shine, Dusk shine

Well shucks,
That's love in the barn.
Up top's the grain and down below's the haaaaaa…”.



……………The character limit for the report has been exceeded……………


Welp, that's how it looks. We wish you luck at the auctions, with containers full of treasures and endless adventures at BID WARS Theme Park.
So remember - if it's gonna be sad, let's make it at least a little bit fun!

Duality Devs.

PS Hey y'all, listen up! Don't y'all go poopin' yer britches from laughin' too hard,
