Turmoil Playtest (has ended)

Update: the playtest for version 3.0 has ended. Follow Turmoil on Steam to get notified of future Playtests!

Dear oil entrepreneurs,

It's been quiet here for a long time, and that's about to change!

We've been working hard on a complete rebuild of the game, as well as a version for mobile. And, as promised: a multiplayer campaign!

But before we can roll out all of this good stuff, we need to gradually test if everything is in working order. We could use your help with this! You can find a button on the store page to sign up for a playtest of the new Turmoil. We will soon start this playtest with a limited number of volunteers.

New things we want to test are:

  • Replays of the Weekly Challenge
  • In-game Weekly Challenge leaderboard and history
  • Tutorial 'videos'
  • New and improved in-game UI
  • New languages (Turkish, Korean, Hungarian)
  • New aspect ratios (no more black bars in 16:9 full screen mode)
  • Loading screen tips
  • And hopefully the absence of lots of imperfections from the old version!

Depending on how many issues we encounter in the playtest, and how long it takes to solve them, the new version of Turmoil will replace the current one in a little while. Once that version has gone live, a multiplayer playtest will be next. We will soon also share more details about the new version and multiplayer campaign, so stay tuned!

For now: thanks for your patience, and we would appreciate it if you sign up for the playtest. We hope you will be invited to join it soon!
