How has the game changed over the last year? Comparing the version of the game 0.9.2 from April 2020 with version 0.9.98 from June 2021, we will notice many changes in the interface but also in the game mechanics.
Apart from changes in mechanics and improvements, I also fixed many bugs. Especially the bugs from the day of the game’s premiere, when the game was rated quite negatively, when the game had a resolution problem, for which I apologize as much as possible. But thanks to the constant work on the game, I hope the game has grown a lot.

The first changes that can be seen are the change of the interface. The lower bar with buttons and shortcuts has been moved to the left side of the screen. Additionally, it was enriched with information on current finances.

Big changes also apply to the maps of cities. Now the cities are richer, all function buildings have got their icons to make everything more visible. The stores now display their income on the city map. And what, in my opinion, the most interesting is the implementation of the store’s sales range. Thanks to this, now the range of a given store is better visualized.

I also finished work on AI. From now on, the competition is buying stores, which will reduce the number of stores available to the player. But there is also the possibility of taking over the competitor's stores, but at a higher price.

The system of creating a new product has also changed. From now on, the names can be generated randomly, and you can freely shape the product quality, use sliders and decide whether it is higher quality or lower costs and shorter production time.

The panels: Company, Production, Shops, Marketing, Contracts have also changed significantly. The panels have been completely changed, all data and indicators have been rearranged and moved to separate tabs. In the Company Panel, I collected all the data about the company, such as production, sales, loans, marketing, etc.

The production panel, all data and indicators were also arranged and transferred to separate tabs. Now the data is presented much better. The mechanics of production have also changed, now each product has a separate production process time, the better we want the product, the longer it will be produced.

In other panels, such as stores / sales, marketing or contracts, all data has been arranged and moved to separate tabs.

[h1][b]#From developer[/b][/h1]
I would like to come back to the negative opinions on the day of the game’s release in Early Access. I think most of these opinions were caused by technical issues with the game, such as a bug in the resolution adjustment which caused a lot of gameplay issues. I fixed the problem quite quickly and I keep developing the game. Although the interest in the game is much less than at the very beginning. Still, I plan to finish the title and release it this summer.
