Let Them Trade · published
Hey folks,
'Tis the season and we are trying our best to get you into a festive mood! That's why we made a special winter update for you to enjoy while you snuggle up with a warm blanket and a hot cup of chocolate*.
And to boost your mood even more, you can get Let Them Trade in this year's winter sale with a 30% discount!
*sustainably sourced and with oat-milk of course
We created a special map that is covered fully in snow! Of course, this affects the production of food resources and therefore creates a challenge for you to keep your inhabitants happy. And it just looks cool.
We tried to strike a balance between aesthetics and readability, that's why you can see the resource tiles when you zoom out, but get a view of the cozy winter wonderland when you zoom in.
We at Spaceflower like to take our winter holidays seriously and that's why we had to decorate the room around the game table to fit the mood! We hope it gives you the same fuzzy feeling it gives us! <3
Speaking of the room: You can finally turn it off! Quite a few of you wished for that to get the last bit of performance out of the game and we hope it helps! Reworking our lighting for the last update made it easier for us now to make the room optional, that's why we can include that option now.
Let us know if it helps with performance, for example on the Steam Deck!
We improved the transporters (again), also reworked some stuff so they don't get overloaded as quickly. (again)
We are participating in Steam's Winter Sale and that means you can get Let Them Trade with 30% off! That is our biggest discount yet and you know what to do with it. Treat yourself and get the game now or get it for a friend who likes cozy city builders. Or gift it to your favorite economics teacher / professor. The ideas are endless, the sale is not. Get it while you can!
As is tradition when a year comes to an end, we took a step back and looked at the year that is behind us. And what a year it was! The first public playtest of Let Them Trade, the release of the demo and of course the final release of Let Them Trade - all of that happened this year.
And that is where we want to thank you - our community. We never expected Let Them Trade to blow up on release like it did. But we are very happy that it got such a positive reception from so many of you.
Thanks for letting us know by leaving a review, by joining our Discord to tell us, by creating videos and streams, by gifting the game to your friends or simply by playing!
We hope you get the chance to unwind from another crazy year and get to spend time with your loved ones and with people close to you. And even if that is not possible, we wish you all the best and hope you have some time to relax, reflect and refresh,
We hope we made your year a bit better by releasing Let Them Trade - you certainly made ours! And we are very excited about what's to come. Our next project is already in-progress and we can't wait to show it to you!
See you all next year,
Spaceflower
