Farmer Against Potatoes Idle - v1.0 Out of Early Access - Multiplayer Season 1
Farmer Against Potatoes Idle · published
Greetings Farmers!
Time flies when you're busy surviving hordes of murderous potatoes! Farmer Against Potatoes Idle (FAPI) is approaching its 2nd anniversary later this month. We can't thank everyone enough, both those who started on our Early Access journey two years ago and everyone who has joined the cause since then. To celebrate, we will be having a limited time event where you can earn a few cosmetic goodies. Details will be announced soon.
As a small aside, it has been exactly six years since Oni Games was founded. Our first game, Wizard and Minion Idle (WAMI), was released several months later. Despite three years and 153 game updates (as of July 2024), WAMI was never officially finished. So having FAPI finally leave Early Access is incredibly exciting! That said, we will be announcing something about WAMI soon...
Oh, did I forget to mention that FAPI is leaving Early Access? We are thrilled to announce that we will be officially launching the 1.0 version on September 5th! Half a million Farmers have killed almost five and a half TRILLION (or 5.5e12 for those of you on scientific/engineering notation) potatoes over the past two years. We have gone from humble beginnings just fending off waves of bloodthirsty taters to catching and raising pets, managing our own town, and doing some actual farming. We look forward to everyone continuing to keep the world(s) safe from the spud invasion.
However, this does not mean that we are content to bask in the glow of mountains of roasted tubers. While we feel that the game is well balanced with plenty of content available, we are planning for new features and improvements from the early game experience all the way to end game.
First, Multiplayer Season 1 will officially commence on September 19th. We thank everyone who has helped us test this feature over the past few months. Your patience and feedback has allowed us to balance and improve the overall experience. As with the initial tests, there will be no P2W aspects in Multiplayer. Farmers can purchase community buffs that everyone will benefit from, but everything else is rewarded in-game. And while we already have a few changes for future seasons in mind, we welcome all feedback to help us continue to improve Multiplayer going forward.
And what about the future? We are already working on a new feature for mid-game. We’re hoping to have that ready sometime in October. And we continue to brainstorm new ideas that will help us ascend, nay, transcend to new heights of Farmer power!
We hope you look forward to what the future of Farmer Against Potatoes Idle has in store! Thank you for your support and we hope you continue to join us on our farming adventure!
