Update #36 - Weekly Challenge
Hi all,
Today we’ve got a BIG update with new content!
This update brings the Weekly Challenge to Turmoil. Every week everyone will get one chance (and one chance only!) to play the exact same level. Your score will be posted on the Leaderboard where you can compare yourself to the rest of the world and your friends. The Weekly Challenge will feature every Area from the game sequentially, including the Bonus Island. So, get ready and Git Gud.
We have also added a Game Over state in the game. No more borrowing money from the bank until your eyes bleed and you’ve developed a severe case of repetitive strain syndrome. After 3 years of ‘being in the red’ you will now get told to get out of town and try again.
Other changes include the ability to send your end of game screenshot to Steam and some rework of the Russian and Chinese translations.
Enjoy the update and we’ll see you on the Leaderboards! Below us preferably. 😉

Turmoil available on iPad
Hi all,
You might have noticed earlier, but Turmoil is now available on iPad. Yes, sorry, iPad only!
We tried out smaller screens, but we couldn't make it work. Digging requires a bit of precision. Mouse and keyboard is easy, fingers are fat.
You can now enjoy the 1899 on your couch. LINK We hope you enjoy!
Turmoil is part of the Humble Jumbo Bundle 8!
If you don't own Turmoil yet, or do but fancy the other games in the bundle, check it out!

Update #35 - Language Update 2
Hi all,
We’ve got another update for you. Today we are adding 4 new languages to the game: Russian, Chinese (simplified), Polish and Brazilian-Portuguese.
This is a bit later than expected, we had to juggle multiple balls at the same time. But it coincides with the release of Turmoil on iPad.
Next up for Turmoil is a few fixes and improvements. We are creating a Weekly Challenge and implementing Game Over functionality if you are in debt for too long. After that...we’ll see. We will have to think about the next steps.
Enjoy!
Ciesz się tym!
Наслаждайтесь!
请享用!
Bom proveito!
Turmoil 40% OFF - Daily Deal
We're proud to be Steam's Daily Deal and offer 40% off the regular price for the first time!
We just updated the game last week to add more replayability in the Single Level game mode. And we are currently working on a localization update adding Russian, Chinese, Brazilian-Portuguese and Polish. Maybe Korean too if we can manage with the character set.

Update #34 - Replay Bonus Island
Hi all,
So, as promised, here is the first of two updates: Replay Bonus Island. After this we will work on a localization update and try to bring you that ASAP.
The big difference that today’s update brings is that you get control over how you play Single Levels. And that will make it more FUN! We’ve added sliders in the Area select screen that correspond with the Seed number. You will be able to determine how much Oil, Gas and Rock are in a level.
We have also added a new area: the Bonus Island! The island will have MAX Oil, Gas and Rock as that is the way it should be played. It is unlocked when you win the campaign. This brings re-playability of the Bonus Island to you for the first time! And we’re quite happy with that.
The Seed number is now a bit longer: 10 digits. This was necessary to incorporate the added custom variables. You can still copy this number and the Area and send it to a friend to have them play the exact same level.
Good luck and have fun!

Improved Single Level game mode.
In The Pipeline 14-12-2016
Hi all,
Welcome to our newest post of our ‘In the Pipeline’ series. This is our way of letting you know what we are working on, what we are thinking about and what we know we want to do:
In the Pipeline will contain all the items that are literally and figuratively in the pipeline. This will (but does not have to) include crashes to fix, bugs to splat, player suggestions to incorporate and improvements to make that we feel are necessary for the next update.
It’s time to update you on the state of the game and future plans. Players who tuned into the live streams on Twitch (www.twitch.tv/gamiousdev) already heard about it. But here it is for the rest of you:
We’re currently working on two updates. One is a Localization update that adds new languages. The second is an upgrade to the Single Level system. This should allow for a more fun Single Level experience and more re-playability. It will also add the Bonus Island as a re-playable Single Level.
We hope to give you both updates before the end of the year. starting with the Single Level update this week! But we’re not entirely sure if we can manage that. If we don’t, you’ll get one update in the next two weeks and one at the start of 2017.
What about after those two updates? Well, as always, we’re not sure yet. But we do like to investigate the possibility of more content in the form of a new map/areas. And if we do, we would probably want to add a game mechanic to the game. IF we go that direction we will consider releasing it as paid DLC. We’re also considering more drastic changes to the Single Level game mode that would allow for Leaderboards and Challenges.
Full disclosure: We can’t/won’t promise anything besides the aforementioned updates. We love Turmoil and we want to continue working on it, but in the end the (business) decision needs to make sense in order to keep working on it.

Localization
New Map/Area’s

Update #33 - Wheels in Motion
Hi all,
We’re getting into the rhythm of updating more regularly once more. Today’s update is not huge, but there are some good fixes and a nice new feature. Using your mouse wheel to send Wagons to factories for instance. You won’t have to click anymore if you so choose.
Also important in today’s update is the fact that the AI in Normal Mode has been upgraded. Anyone who watched our live streams on Twitch (www.twitch.tv/gamiousdev) will have noticed that our AI competition was not buying enough upgrades. That has been fixed.
Here is the entire changelist. We will be posting a new In The Pipeline article next week to tell you what we are working on in the coming weeks and months. So stay posted here!
New
Clicking on a building will now open AND close a dialog window. So you don’t have to click X if you don’t want to.
Mouse wheel scroll can now be used to assign Wagons to factories. You cab use this on either half of the screen.
Our new game icon should now also appear in the taskbar.
Fixed
Fixed AI not buying enough upgrades. This will also make them score better on their levels!
Fixed the apostrophe missing in Dollar amounts above 1 million.
Fixed a few Windows sticking out on the bottom.
Fixed Oil sticking out of Wagons.
Fixed Oil being drawn over snow where it should not.
