Could you provide a save export method? My save is gone even if I logged in.

Also, are itch and production website use the same account? It seems like my account can not login production website.

This is a great game with lots of fun. I can't wait to see the future update.

I was wondering if you might reduce the difficulty in the earily stage. Keeping the income blance is already difficult for new player. The  fire/riot makes the blance even more fragile. They are nothing in the later game. But in the beginning, tt is frustrated because we can only sit through the minues-long event and see the gold drain out.

Hey,

Thank you so much for your feedback !

Itch is now using the production environment. It was not the case in the previous version, this explains why your save is not present. I can retrieve your previous save and import it back to the prod env, if you want (I just need your email).

I’ll reduce a little bit the difficulty in the early stage of the game, and will harden it on the late game.

Best regards, Alexdb

Thanks!

I alreay started a new game, made much more progess, and ran into game over. XD

I build 20 hospital but the risk bar never drop below 100%. The sense of not making any progress doesn't feel good. On top pf that, if I want to build more hospital and build faster, I need more population to provide me tax. This would make the risk event higher.

in addition, when the work force reduce by rito or fire, player has only two options: do nothing, or build more house to get work force. This make my risk management even more broken.

I like your idea of this game. I never see other game like this. but in my oppion, the negative feedback loop on risk is too strong for an "idle" game.

I am not sure this is a bug or not:

If you don't have any hospital. The pandemic would never end. However, it won't go worse. Paying the pandemic upkeep is much eaier than building hospital.

Thanks for your feedback <3 !

FYI, I’m working on the city incident, and the next patch should make them less impacting, less frequent by still annoying. Also, in the next patch, the risk of a city incident displayed in front of a fire station / police station and hospital, will be much more comprehensible: it will display the immediate probability of an incident.

I hope I’ll be able to release this patch by the end of the week!

Again, thank you so much for your feedback!

Hey !

You can mark items to sell, by going to the “Resources” screen, and click on a resource. This will pop up a window, where you will be able to select the quantity you want to sell. After that, every 5 to 10 min, a merchant will try to buy some resources from you.

Best regards, Alexdb

Is it a lost safe if I get to negative money?

Hey !

For now, there are no win / lose conditions. However, in the next release, I plan to add at least some lose conditions. One of them will be to have less than -2k coins. If you are stuck with your current game, because you don’t have enough coins, you can start a new game by resetting your current save. To do so, you can go to Settings > Reset save.

Best regards, Alexdb.
