My first steam game ISLANDS&TRAINS has just released!! What began as a tiny hobby project has grown into something I’m so thankful, excited and proud for.
It would mean the world if you could give this a retweet and try the game on Steam💌🌻s.team/a/1957760
The full changelog for this and previous versions is here btw: store.steampowered.com/news/…
It's mostly minor fixes and adjustments, but there's some content in there too!
I’ve really enjoyed seeing people try the demo for the first time without any pointers, and somehow figure out the mechanics on their own as they play.
Maybe an eventual tutorial should be optional? What's the best way to foster curiosity without leaving players frustrated?
Played demo of Biotopia and this game is very relaxing. You build landscapes with connecting nodes placing them next to each other. Connect and expand enough lands to unlock new lands and new animals. With easy controls and simple UI, this game has great visuals too. Even though you are creating and expanding lands, it's not bloated on your screen. I am the typee of player who likes to zoom out while play but you can zoom in to see this game is more beautiful than it looks. While it's music is relaxing, you can also play this game while you listen your own music or podcast you want to catch up. While I kept the video with only one run, after this I started again and again to try different approaches to discover other animals. If you want to calmly spend your time without worry, this game is great for you.

The demo is done! I'm a dingus and didn't take into account that it has to be reviewed before release, but it should be available on Steam next week (I hope).

Hello, @JoarRenolen has done another pass on ambience and music, and I cannot stress how much better it feels to play the game now.😌
Here’s a small sample:🔊

Oh, uh, hello! I’m still working on Biotopia, I just got a little stuck trying to figure out how the animals were actually supposed to work.
Anyway here’s some updated gameplay:

🍜Still be done in time for lunch
Try the DEMO now! s.team/a/2239150
When a biotope is completely enclosed, without any holes and cannot grow any more, does it make more sense to refer to it as “closed” or as “complete”?
It's a trivial thing, but I can't stop waffling between the two.😔

I’ve been trying to do some more UI-work lately.
Is it apparent what these labels are trying to convey?

Updated sound effects!🔊
I’m super grateful to have @JoarRenolen do a pass on all the essentials; it really adds so much to the overall feel of the game.😊

Hello, I am still working on Biotopia, a relaxing landscape building game.
I’m going to try to make a proper trailer and Steam page soon. My poor editing skills aside, does any of this give any indication of what the game is like?
