Dear Future Motel Owners!

With the new year upon us, we warmly welcome you and thank you for the tremendous interest and support you’ve shown for our game. To kick off this year, we’d like to share some updates on the progress of our development.

We’re currently focused on rewriting most of the game’s mechanics to create more optimized code. This will ensure the game runs faster, smoother, and is better prepared for future updates. Our internal beta tests have shown that this is a crucial step in delivering the best possible experience for you.

We’re thrilled to announce that we’re introducing items to the in-game shop. At this moment, we already have over 200 unique pieces of furniture that you can place in your rooms—and this is just the beginning! We haven’t even touched on bathroom items, wall and floor finishes, or many other features. This is only a small fraction of what we’ve planned, and we’re adding more every day. All of this is designed to give you the greatest creative freedom in decorating and designing your future motels.

The code changes we’re implementing now are also aimed at allowing us to quickly respond to your feedback and adapt the game to your expectations once it enters Early Access.

While there’s still a lot of work ahead, we’re fully committed to completing it and are doing everything we can to release the game this year without any delays. Unfortunately, due to the scale of the project and our limited resources, we can’t provide you with a specific release date yet. However, we promise to keep you updated regularly on our progress.

Thank you for your patience, support, and enthusiasm—they truly drive us forward. We are a small but incredibly dedicated team—just a handful of people pouring their hearts into this project. We believe the final result will be worth the wait, and we hope it will exceed your expectations!

Thank you for joining us on this incredible journey. See you in the upcoming updates—and once again, we wish you a very Happy New Year!

Best regards,
RED Phoenix Interactive
