Getting ready for release!
I'm spending some extra time implementing multiple languages and subtitles, since the game has a pretty strong emphasis on following instructions and reacting to the angry shouts of the Boss. I've added a language select to the options menu, as well as an option to enable subtitles:
I lucked out with some people providing assistance with translations, so currently these languages are supported:
The Factory part of the game has been thoroughly playtested and is currently fully finished, though I may add some small things later on. The Deliveries part of the game is new however and adds fun new gameplay to the game for some extra variety. In Deliveries you have to control an old steam lorry, which is loosely modeled after the Sentinel brand of steam lorry produced in Britain back in the day:
These hulking, 7+ ton, machines of pure steam power are challenging to control and to make things worse... the Boss is sitting next to you to give you directions and punish you should you get it wrong!
The steam lorry has several controls which you have to manage manually, making for some chaotic and fun stressy gameplay. Especially now that I've further tweaked the lorry to feel more scary when barreling down the windy roads of the town. Don't crash or flip it!
Of course you will be able to unlock Custom Deliveries when you've made it through the entire week, in which you will be able to freely tweak all the parameters to create fun challenges, or maybe to have a relaxing sunday drive through the town?
Can't have a survive-the-night game without some fun achievements! I'm adding a plethora of of them, some are easy to get as you naturally progress through the week, others provide extra ways to challenge yourself and go for that completionist streak!
Currently the game is set to release on the 22th of April, on a Monday. Go wishlist if you haven't already!

The new version of Keep It Running for Steam, which includes the new Deliveries update, is almost finished. I'm currently focusing on accessibility, testing, fixing & polishing. The new gameplay is becoming great fun and offers a nice break from toiling away on the Factory floor. Though... It isn't any less stressful with the kind of boss you are working for!

"Welcome, employee, to the marvelous world of Toys You Like! The most magical place in the world, where dreams come true and the laughter of children is our goal and reward! Here in the Toys You Like family, we value hard work and employees that go above and beyond. Times are tight and jobs are precious, so we require you to work fast and precise."
The Factory:
In this high-stress, multitasking challenge, your day begins with fueling the boiler to get the machinery running. As you control the speed of the engine, you'll need to assemble robot toys on the production line, using a wrench to fix any machines that break down. Fail to keep up with the daily quota and your watchful boss will quickly show his displeasure.But the challenges don't end there:
Each day brings new obstacles – from mischievous toys disrupting the assembly line to the competitors of the factory intending to snatch you away. Stay alert, stay vigilant and above all stay loyal.
Deliveries:
Deliveries is a brand new addition to Keep It Running. The packages you made need to be delivered as well and of course this task falls on your shoulders. You will have to manage the lorry's boiler, speed controls and steering whilst following the directions given by your boss. Once again he demands perfection and once again time runs out fast, so best be swift!Custom Days:
Have you survived the week? Have a go at the Custom Day mode in which you can tweak all the day's parameters to you liking to create fun challenges and experiments.MINIMAL SETUP
