Aquaponics Life On Hold Development Announcement!
Hello guys, how are you? Long time no see.
We have to tell you something about Aquaponics Life. Just like the title said, Aquaponics Life development is being on hold. It was a hard decision for us to do it. But we must do it for the good of the game itself. We're really sorry.
When we are developing Aquaponics Life, we came to the point where we can't show the core of the game, the aquaponics itself. When we develop a simulation game, we want to show how the things work. And in this game, we want to show how aquaponics system work. But, we still not find the best way to show it. It's not just connecting fish tank to grow bed, it's more than that. We thought aquaponics system was too big, that's why we need to break down the system into a smaller one, to "Hydroponics System" and "Aquaculture System".
Right now, we are developing a simulation game called "Age of Hydroponics" and "Aquaculture Land".
For Age of Hydroponics, basically, it's similar to aquaponics but without fish. So we focus on growing some plants on grow bed. It's a hydroponics farm simulation game where you manage your farm business in an urban area. And for Aquaculture Land, Aquaculture Land is an aquafarming simulation game. In this game, you will act as a businessman that runs a freshwater fish farm. You will manage all things related to fisheries.
For the current design of Age of Hydroponics, besides you must take care your hydroponics farm, you can manage your workers, you can sell your yields, you can delivery your yields to customer around the city, and you can manage your relationship with your customer. Here some sneak peeks from Age of Hydroponics :
If you want to know more about Age of Hydroponics, you can follow our twitter account: https://twitter.com/MaulidanGames. We post our newest update in twitter because we haven't make the steam store yet.
For the current design of Aquaculture Land, you can make your own pond design, you must take care and fulfill the needs of your fish if you want them to grow well and stay alive, sell your harvested fish to get benefits for your business, and don't forget to protect your fish from predator. Some preview from Aquaculture Land :
We already have steam store page for Aquaculture Land, you can check it here : https://store.steampowered.com/app/858630/Aquaculture_Land/
You can wishlist it to know the newest information about the game and if you have some suggestion about the game, feel free to tell us on the discussion section.
We are really sorry to say that Aquaponics Life is being on hold. We hope that all of you guys will always support us, support our games, and support Aquaponics Life. It's not like we will abandon Aquaponics Life, not at all. We just going to a smaller system so it will make us easier to show the shape of aquaponics system in the next development. We will do our best for Age of Hydroponics, Aquaculture Land, and of course for Aquaponics Life.
Have a great day guys :D
Cheers!
Market Condition
Hi everyone :)
Back again with some update for Aquaponics Life.
How are you today? Hope you still have a great day :)
Today’s update still talk about the business side of Aquaponics Life. In this game, when you sell your items, you can’t give your own price to the items. Every items that you sell will be automatically follow the market price, and in this case we called it “Market Condition”. When we talk about "Market Condition", then we will talk about price fluctuations, upward or downward swings in the prices of products.
The Market Condition UI will give you information about items which affected by market condition in one month. It will show you the percentage of the increases and decreases of the items price. Percentage of the price increases will represent with green number and the decreases one will represent with red number. The number will be shown as a weekly condition. So, in that one week, the items will affected by the market condition.
"Market Condition" is one of the important things you must know in Aquaponics Life. Why is it important? Because when you aware about market condition, you can make a strategy about your business. When you must keep your items, when you must sell it, what items do you need to harvest, you will have strategy for all of that things.
This "Market Condition" will be one of the things that help you on managing your aquaponics business. So make sure to check it sometimes ;)
That's it for today's update guys. Just like before, write your suggestion about Aquaponics Life and your opinion about this "Market Condition" in the comment section below.
Thank you for all your support. See you next time everyone :)
Store and Warehouse (Part 2)
Hello guys :)
How are you today? Hope you'll have a great day
Today we will continue to talk about store and warehouse. Last time we already talk about how store and warehouse look and what that two buildings for. Right now, we will talk about it with more details. Let's go!
As mention before, warehouse is the place for you to keep your items. Your items will be have some quality status. It'll be represent with "Grade" A,B,C,D, and E. The best quality will represent by grade "A" and the lowest quality will represent by grade "E". This grade will affect your selling price when you put your items into store. You can always put every items you keep on warehouse into store to sell it. When you keep your items on warehouse, there is chance the quality of your items will get worse. And sometimes, when the quality keep getting worse, you'll have a chance to lose some items.
You can upgrade your warehouse to increase the maximum item you can stock and the quality of warehouse itself so you can make your item quality stay good a little longer.
Okay, we’ re done talking about warehouse, let’s move to the next one :)
Now we're talking about store. In the last update, it's already said that store will be the place to sell your harvest items. Every harvest items which you put into the store will be automatically sales. Once you put it into the store, you can't take it back.
Just like warehouse, you can upgrade store too. Upgrading the store will increase the maximum stock of items you can sell. Every 5 am, there will be a car that will take your items from your store and then sell it to the market. Because your items will be sell to the market, you can’t give your own price to your items, your items will follow the market price.Price fluctuation will be one of the factor you must considered. So, that's why sometimes you need to keep your items for awhile, waiting for the highest price come and then you sell it.
Okay, that's it for these two buildings. How is it? Give us your opinion and suggestion about store and warehouse concept on the comment section below.
We glad finally we can talk with you guys again. Please keep supporting us from now on. See you in the next update :)
Store and Warehouse (Part 1)
Hello everyone, long time no see :)
How are you today? Hope you will have a good day :)
It’s almost two months since our last update. There are something happened ( you can check it here for more info : http://steamcommunity.com/app/665980/discussions/0/3377008022035135000/ ) .
But here we are now, back with some update for Aquaponics Life :)
Are you ready? Let’s check it out!
Today we will talk about store and warehouse. What is it? Store and Warehouse are two buildings you will find in the beginning era of Aquaponics Life. In the beginning era, beside you can make your own Aquaponics System Design, when your plant or fish are growing big enough, you can harvest it and sell it.
Let’s take a closer look :)
This is how the warehouse looks like. So what is it for? After harvesting your plant or fish, you can choose to sell it or to keep it. Warehouse will be the place to stock your plant or fish if you choose to keep it. In this game, your plant and fish will have quality attribute. The longer you keep it, the worse the quality of your item can be. And if it getting worse, sometimes you can lose your item.
And this is how store looks like. Just like its name, store will be the building to sell your items. When you put your items on store, it’ll sell automatically. You can put your items to store from warehouse but not vice versa. Every 5 am, your items will be taken by a car that will sell it to market.
These two building will help you on earn money from your Aquaponics. It's not only the Aquaponics System Design that must player know, but the business too.
So, how do you think about this two buildings? Have some suggestion? Write it down in the comment section below :)
In the next update, we will still talk about store and warehouse but with more details. Maybe some of you will have a question like "Why we need a warehouse? Why we need to keep our items if that make our items quality getting worse?" and something like that. We will talk about it in the next update :)
Last but not least, we are sorry that we don't come with some updates on this last two months. But don't worry, we still keep developing Aquaponics Life, we still work on it. We still try our best so we can make this game as great as your expectation. We don't want to make you disappointed. So please, keep support us from now on. Thank you ;)
See you in the next update :)
Aquaponics System Design
Hi everyone :) How’s your day?
Last time we already show you about our plan for the new view design for production room. Thanks a lot for all your support and comment about the concept. Today, we will inform you about what our team developing right know.
Let’s take a sneak peek ;)
The first thing that you must know when you play aquaponics life is the aquaponics system design. What is it? Aquaponics system design is a design that you need to build to make the aquaponics work. Connect the fish tank into filter and then connect filter into grow bed, so the grow bed will have enough water to make the plant stay alive, that’s the example of the aquaponics system design.
Right know, our team is developing the sandbox style for aquaponics life. We want player to know what is Aquaponics System Design and how it work. That’s why in the sandbox style, player can place grow bed, fish tank, filter and others object wherever they want and then connect them all to make the fish and plant growth. You can make your own aquaponics system design, sounds exciting, right?
Later on, this sandbox style will be on the beginning state, before the state you do an aquaponics on the city. And as you can see on the screenshot above, the sandbox style use 3/4 view so player will easier to see the whole screen or map to place the object. It is different from the city state that use side view and the new plan for room design (new plan that we talk it last time) that use isometric view.
So, what do you think about it? Leave your opinion and suggestion on the comment section below.
See you again, everyone :)
Isometric Grow Bed
Hi everyone :)
Today we want to share with you about our plan to added a new fiture to our game. We want to implement a new design about a close view for production building and this time we want to show you the design for plant room.
Let's check it out :)
In Aquaponics Life, you can build 2 kinds of production building, fish room and plant room. You can grow varieties of plant and fish, which is each of these has specific behavior that you must reveal. For the current design, the view for each room is still 2D front view. If you want to growth some plant or some fish, you just click “buy seed” button and then pick any plant or fish you want, only one type of plant or fish.
In our new design, when you click the room, there will be an option to enter the room. For the plant room, there will be a growbed button when you click the room.
Inside the plant room, you will see an isometric grow bed view. You’ll be shown what kind of plant that you already planted and condition of the plant. There is an indicator that show your plant health and the harvest time. So you will know which plants is ready to harvest and which plant that has a problem. You can only growth one type of plant on one grow bed.
That’s our plan for new design of production building, the isometric grow bed view. How is it? What do you think about this concept? Leave your opinion and suggestion on the comment section below.
Have a great day everyone :)
