Hi Matt!

Thanks for playing Snowtopia and sharing your feedbacks.

Your first proposition would be a really nice feature and we've already had fun imagining something like that for the game. It's the kind of ideas that would be great but we still need to stay focused on the features we need in the game.

About your second proposition, we're French and use to ski in the Alps, which means we don't have that much trees in our resorts. Also, more trees means more resources from the graphical card to run the game. So, yes, we still have some improvements to make :) Et il faut clairement qu'on découvre ce que c'est de skier au Quebec pour élargir nos références en terme de station de ski !

Bonne fin de journée,

Anne

Bonjour,

Snowtopia sera disponible uniquement sur Windows, Linux et Mac.

Même si Chrome OS développe une compatibilité avec un des ces OS, les performances du Chromebook risquent de ne pas être suffisantes pour lancer un jeu en 3D, graphiquement exigeant.

Pour jouer à Snowtopia, je vous conseille donc fortement de vous procurer un ordinateur plus puissant et équipé de l'OS approprié.

En espérant que vous puissiez vous en procurer un.

Bonne journée à vous,

Anne

Bonjour,

merci d'avoir joué à Snowtopia et de prendre le temps de commenter :)

Pas besoin d'argent pour créer du challenge, c'est du moins notre point de vue. On compte bien faire tout ce qu'on peut pour te convaincre !

Rendez-vous à l'early access pour le résultat :) En espérant que ça te plaira.

Bonne journée à toi,

Anne

Hi!

Could you share you're computer's specifications ? Also, do you usualy play management game (Two point hospital, Foundation, Parkitect, etc.) on this computer ?

Could be because of your graphic card and the game not being optimized yet.

Merci d'avoir joué et pour ton retour :)

ça fait plaisir de savoir que le jeu t'a plu même s'il n'est pas fini.

Rendez-vous à l'early access !!

Snowtopia is only available on Windows, Linux and Mac. I'd never used a chromebook, so I don't know about compatibilities with other OS. You can try to download it and run the .exe, nothing bad can happen.

Bonjour, nous n'avons pas prévu d'adapter Snowtopia pour mobile. C'est plus une question de performance des appareils Android que de manque de volonté de notre part. Ce jeu est bien trop gourmand pour eux je le crains :)

Only if you're playing through itchio's application. Otherwise, you need to download it all over again.

Has your wish been granted ?

End of February

Hi! I do read, but not every morning as I'm part of the dev team ^^

Anyway, thanks for playing! To answer your 'suggestions':

1. You can use itchio application or wait for the release on Steam. Itchio application deal with update automatically. if you don't use it, you have to erase the old version and download the new on at every update.

2. Yes! We're working on it

3. Yes!

4. Snowtopia is based on self-managed society. There will be no money.

5. YES! The best part, obviously haha

6. Yes!

7. We would like (very much) a night and day cycle as well, but it's a very long term goal for us.

8. Topology is so important in this game that we don't know yet if this random system will be adequate.

9. First person camera is a big yes

10. Sorry, I didn't get this one

11. We're focusing the development on the skiing area and not on the accommodation in the village. But we do have specialization system in mind for this part.

12. Events and stuff like that would be great. But it's also a long term feature. Or a very simple one.

Have a good day!

Hi! Thanks for your bug report. I transferred to the devs. it should help them find your problem.

Hi! Thanks for playing :)

About your suggestions...

1. Yes! We know the actual tool for construction is not enough and we are working on ways to improve it. Thanks for your very complete insights :)

2. Actually, there is no difference between those two type of ski runs... It's cosmetic. It will change when attendance will increase the risk of falling.

3. Agreed! It's planned :)

4. There will be no money in Snowtopia. The whole game system will rely on skier's satisfaction.

5. No money, no competition. But big expectations from skiers and skiers with very different expectations.

6. Snowboards --> yes!

7. Accidents, Ski Patrol/Staff --> yes!

8. Ski Schools & Slope management  --> yes!

9. Public events like races, olympic rental?  --> I still don't know how, but i'd like to.

10. Global warming!? --> no but a big concern for environment

11. SNOW CONDITION! --> yes!

I hope you like those answers!

See you around

Hi! Thanks for your feedback and for playing the game. We still have a lot to do to balance the game and data such as lift length. It depends on other stuff we still have to implement. A lot will change before early access.

Stay tune to get the full version!

Hi Chris! Thanks for playing and for your comments.

Yes, the game still has some performance issues. Skiers, slopes and lifts are the guilty ones. Our developers are working on it, one step at a time.

It should be fixed by the release day.

Hope to see you then!

Hi! I'm not sure what your problem is, but it's not realy an update. It's more a new version (an improved one) of the game. you have to erase the older version and to download the new one.

Does it help?

Yes!

Hi! Thanks for playing and for the feedback :) Almost all of this target points are planned, except terraforming and shops in the valley. I hope you'll enjoy the result!

See you then

Hi! Thanks for your feedback, we've done a lot of fixing on the last update and released a new build. I hope you tried it :)

See you to the next update!

Hi! Thanks for playing the game and for your kind words :) The house icon is for facilities like security, maintenance, food, and other stuffs like that. The game will be focused on the ski area but we want to add some specialization options for the village too.

Hope you'll enjoy it :)

Hi! Thanks for playing :) We consider adding mod support and hiking tracks, but it will be after early access I think.

I think not. With Q and E ?

Also, in the next update, we'll add the setting of controllers.

Hi! Are you on Discord? It would be easier to help you there.

If you can't, the only way to help you is with screenshots of your resort and the log files which you can find here:

macOS ~/Library/Logs/Unity/Player.log

Hi! Thanks for the suggestions and for playing the game :) Except the change of season (Snowtopia is a world of eternal snow), we have plans for all of your expectations. Which is good news! See you then

I agree! We'll see what we can do :)

Hi! Black is harder than red and wait for the next update. With the topology layer, it will be easier to build green slopes. Also, I make turns with the runs to keep them the same color. Did you try that?

Our aim is to create a game like Parkitect and Megaquarium. So, between 20 and 25 euros.

Hi! Thanks for the feedback :) Definitely considering all your suggestions.

Hi! Press the wheel of your mouse to rotate the camera. It should work :)

Hi! Thanks for your kind words :) I forwarded to the members of the team and they end up sending hearts everywhere in the channel of discussion. 

Early access is planned during 2020. We're working with our producer to set a more precise release date.

See you along the way!

Anne

Hi! We still have to work on the graphic performances of the game. Our programmer is doing some optimization those days. Thanks for letting us know about this issue :)

Hi! Thanks for the log. It is transmitted to programmers.

It's not :) We still need to develop this feature.

Yes, we did! Thanks. We're at the event EGX for a few days, so won't have time to read it before next week.

Hi! So we can help you fix this issue, could you send us your log files ? It would be very convenient, thanks :)

macOS     ~/Library/Logs/Unity/Player.log
Windows     C:\Users\username\AppData\LocalLow\CompanyName\ProductName\output_log.txt
Linux     ~/.config/unity3d/CompanyName/ProductName/Player.log

This was fixed in version 0.7.0.3 so that's weird. I'll have a look!

Hi,

i hope everything went alright at the end?

Hi,

Thanks for playing and for your recommendations :)

Save game is here, hope you will enjoy it!

Hi,

thanks for playing to Snowtopia :) You're right about the lack of challenge. We have planned to increase it in the future. And even if we have plenty to do before that, we also have plans for decorations, Nordic trails and night/day cycle.

We can't wait for this functionalities to be implemented!!

See you then :)

Thanks!

:D
