  • Important News on Egg Surprise & Nortopia

    Important News on Nortopia


    Dear Egg Surprise players and future Nortopia players, we have two important announcements regarding the Nortopia project that will affect the release dates.

    Release Scheduled for 2025


    As much as we would like to accelerate the game's release and quickly provide our loyal players with an active experience, unfortunately, the project requires significant efforts to be ready for a commercial release. Our main goal: is to attract as much attention and interest to Nortopia as possible. For this purpose, we are in search of a publisher who will take on the marketing support for the project. As a result, the release date has been postponed to Q2 2025, but dont be disheartened!

    Egg Surprise Will Continue to Grow


    Our expectation that the concept of Egg Surprise was on its way out has not been fully confirmed. We believed the project had low potential for attracting new players and was gradually fading. However, recent traffic activity has shown that the main reason for audience loss was the high entry barrier to the game. To address this, we plan to significantly lower the entry barrier and improve the games friendliness to new players. The following changes will be made:
    • Released DLCs will receive new content that moves away from frequent drop changes. Instead, each expansion will feature events that allow players to obtain exclusive, event-bound items
    • As previously mentioned, we plan to add a heroes mode to the game and offer players the opportunity to duel
    • We will localize all items and descriptions, as well as integrate comprehensive guides for all features (as previously promised), to help new players understand the game
    • The current economic balance will also be gradually shifted back toward the initial focus on branches of activity development: farming, exploration, and combat

    Conclusion


    We strongly recommend players who planned to move to Nortopia soon to reconsider their strategy and actively participate in the Heroes of Egg Surprise expansion, which is designed to add new elements of interest to the project.

    Item trading is now allowed again in the game.

    Dear players, after a long time of requests, we have decided to make item trading available again. You can now trade items with other players. Additionally: we have removed the restriction on item farming from a single IP address.

    A very important announcement about the future of this game

    Dear players, I would like to share with you our vision of how the development of Egg Surprise and Nortopia will proceed after release.

    Nortopia


    General Information


    This is an MMO Idle strategy game with elements of player trading. As you know, we will transfer items from Egg Surprise to Nortopia following a fair conversion principle. Nortopia plans to develop as a socio-economic strategy with a seasonal model. We sell season passes and cosmetics, while players trade activities and items with each other.

    Acquiring Items


    All types of items in Nortopia will be available for acquisition through in-game methods, except for seasonal content. To access seasonal content activities, you need to purchase it. Exclusive items transferred from Egg Surprise will be used in the game according to the ownership principle. Players pay in-game currency to use and access these items, and the owners of exclusive items receive revenue in proportion to their ownership share.

    Game Mechanics


    • Settlement construction
    • Dungeons
    • Boss raids with players
    • Clan activities
    • Ranking system and leaderboard

    Egg Surprise


    After the transfer, this game will undergo a "Reborn." All existing mechanics in the game will be significantly changed, the crafting and spending balance will be completely revised, and for those who transfer items to Nortopia, the inventory will be entirely wiped. This means that if you transfer items, you will lose ownership of them here. The transfer can be completed within a month after Nortopia's release, but the state of the items will be frozen at the time of the snapshot (screen of all inventory states on the server). If a player does not use the transfer service, their items will automatically be converted into the local currency at an internal conversion rate, which will not be publicly disclosed but will follow the principle of fairness. Thus, Egg Surprise will get a soft reboot and a fresh start. Additionally, the "Heroes of Egg Surprise" DLC will be released, bringing a completely new set of game mechanics.

    Mechanics in the Heroes of Egg Surprise DLC


    • Customizable player characters
    • PVP battles
    • Boss branches with drops for unlocking new characters
    • Events for obtaining new costumes
    • Pets and their customization
    Some details may change during development, but the general principles stated here will remain unchanged. Thank you for your attention, and have a great game!

    Egg Surprise: Reborn - New Game with Global Changes

    Game Refactoring and Major Development Changes Announcement


    Introduction


    Dear players, we are very grateful for your contribution to the development of the game and your active support of our ideas. When we launched Egg Surprise, to be honest, we did not anticipate such a result and, sadly, were not prepared for such active growth. We had to adapt to the situation, increase protection, engage in very active content expansion, and generally provide service and support for the projects servers. All of this led to us lacking the focus needed to promote the game. We made many mistakes in our actions and want to express our immense gratitude for your patience and faith in our development. Finally, we are ready to openly share our plans for the games future. I will now detail what will be reworked and what to expect in the future, and I ask you to be patient and read this post to the end.

    Market Economy


    Our market economy concept was to create real item scarcity through gameplay. We did not want to fall into the trap of other clickers, where scarcity is created solely by changing drop rates and creating fake items for purchase with developer funds to convince the community of a living economy. We chose to develop gameplay cycles and will continue to develop the project in this way, but we have addressed all the shortcomings associated with our model and are ready to offer you an improved version of this model.
    • From now on, there will be no large stockpiles of "cheap" items on the Steam marketplace and in your inventories. They will all become part of the inventory logic and internal trading system. On the Steam marketplace, you will only trade three types of items for real money: different denominations of in-game currency, Pencoin.
    • The internal store will represent a market between players with a model similar to Steams, but the fee for trading will be Pencoin. This will be a single currency whose value is directly determined by the market, with no possibility of aggressive manipulation.
    What problems does this solve?
    • Trading will no longer depend on your countrys currency, which caused inconvenience for some regions. Since all item prices will be determined by in-game currency, they will not depend on your countrys exchange rates.
    • The game will offer tools for converting Pencoin of different denominations so that players from regions with expensive currencies can buy high-denomination coins in bulk and then convert them in-game into lower-denomination coins.
    What else will change in the market model?
    • Now, some crafting and activity results will be income in the form of Pencoin, which will reduce the amount of content we need to produce for updates.
    • This will also allow for more flexible item balance management and prevent players from losing focus among hundreds of items.
    • We will offer a modified item acquisition format, where players will earn in-game currency with some variability depending on luck for active gameplay (such as clicking), rather than final items. All items will now be obtained through crafting and upgrades.
    These are not all the changes, but they reflect our readiness to address current issues.

    Gameplay


    We have taken into account players' comments that the game is too focused on the market model and does not provide gameplay activities for those who did not come to earn money. I want to assure you that in the revamped version of the game, we have given immense attention to gameplay and focused on making the process as independent as possible from financial relationships. That is, the game will provide all the necessary tools for achieving any values in the game, but of course, it will require a lot of effort and time.
    • The game will be completely autonomous from the need to follow news in our communities, chats, and various documents. All necessary instructions and rules for the game will be placed directly in the gameplay.
    • You will see most game activities, such as expeditions, crafting, and various activities, displayed on your screen as 2D visuals.
    • You will not need to constantly monitor your inventory for the needed resources and will not have to leave the game window to play.
    • We will significantly rebalance the game in favor of previously mentioned development branches: farming, military craft, adventuring, and so on. This will be a full-fledged economic strategy with gameplay features, and trading with players will become an option for those who wish to participate.
    In other words, our priority is to further develop Egg Surprise into a complete game, not just a simple player-to-player trading simulator. Therefore, we commit to meeting the definition of a game.

    Development Discipline


    You have repeatedly encountered issues due to developer mistakes or lack of awareness in the project, and we understand that we were wrong. Our idea is to increase the intervals between updates and ensure a proper approach to testing the product before release.
    • Before transitioning to the updated model, there will be several rounds of testing before providing you with the final product. We plan to test the project with the first 10 selected people, then 100 people will get access, and only after debugging all errors will we provide access to all players.
    • Future updates and project changes will go through testing stages, and if the product is found to be insufficiently ready, we will not publish an "unfinished version" but will take additional time for development.
    • Additionally, our approach to development will change in terms of time planning, with announcements of updates or changes occurring only when the planned change is ready.
    We greatly appreciate your trust and hope that in the future, we will make far fewer mistakes.

    What Will Happen with Old Items and the Current State of the Game?


    Considering your investments, we will offer a fair transition to the new model for all current players, allowing you not only to transfer your current progress but also to receive a proportional amount of resources and a new opportunity to reconsider your development strategy in the project. We still do not have a final solution on how exactly this will be implemented, but we are confident that you will like this format. What decisions can be made now?
    • Conversion of all items to in-game currency at the ratio of the current market value of the item.
    • Transfer of all items to the format of game items with replacement of some (non-transferable) items at a ratio to the value in the new currency.
    The exact solution will be announced later.

    Project Promotion and Advertising


    The current situation, due to the game looking and playing like a simple clicker, imposes serious limitations on promotion. People are quite skeptical about clickers given the failures and negative advertising associated with them. If the transition to a full-fledged game format happens, we will be able to more actively engage various advertising channels and effectively attract a new audience.
    • Additional traffic will be received from players who have never participated in Steam market trading before; they will come to play the game.
    • More advertising channels that previously refused us due to the games format will be connected.
    • Serious preparatory work will be done before attracting players to avoid losing new traffic as we did before.

    Conclusion and Announcement


    Ladies and gentlemen, we have long been working towards this decision and considered various scenarios for project development, including artificially increasing the online to be noticed by Steams algorithms. But after studying the market and seeing unsuccessful cases of such approaches, we made the only viable decision for project development - to become a full-fledged game and stop exploiting the trading platform as the core of the game model. We aim to create an economic strategy with a focus on created lore and gameplay mechanics, as well as social activities such as raids, clans, PvP, and more. The game plans to continue its development in this direction, and there will be a very smooth transition from the current game to the new one. This does not mean that there is no reason to continue playing now; all the values earned will become a good start in the new game and allow you to get ahead of other players in development. But we also recognize the importance of maintaining a balance for newcomers and will offer mechanisms for fair competition and development. Once again, we express our immense gratitude for your help and trust, and we will do everything in our power!

    1.1.8 Sea Expedition, Doping Mechanic, Lamiya Resurrect and more

    We haven't shared any news in the Steam community for a while, but the game is still under constant development.

    What's new in the game?


    1) Resurrections with the character Lamiya


    - Using Vampire Totem, Blood, any type of dead Penguin, and a living Penguin, you can resurrect a character. - The dead character is revived, and the living character selected as the avatar disappears. - Blood is consumed in the process.

    2) New features for using Doping, which were sold in the in-game store


    - With them, you can turn a regular Penguin into a Monster with a chance of success. - The success chance depends on the rarity of the Doping. - DLC characters from Styria are guaranteed to upgrade to the next rarity when using syringes. - After a successful use, an empty syringe is returned. - Empty syringes can be refilled with the help of Faust Morrigan and Acid Slime.

    3) New adventures added: Sea Expeditions


    - With Penguin Builder and Log, you can build a boat, and Great Ship was sold in the store. - You can send them on a sea voyage to obtain a treasure chest. - Axes and Pegnuin Lumberjack are used to open the chest. - Inside the chest, there may be various rarities, depending on the volume and type of the chest.

    Expeditions of kids, dead valley and hatching of eggs


    Dear players, we are working on ensuring a smooth entry for newcomers, and here are the improvements implemented: [olist]

  • Penguin Kids can now be sent on expeditions. Their loot depends on the type but may also fail.
  • Dogs from previous collections can now be exchanged for Big Dogs at a 1 to 6 ratio.
  • Penguin Mom can now be obtained with a small chance from an egg of any rarity. [/olist] The Elder Penguins have decided to announce the beginning of expeditions to the Death Valley Due to the high danger of Death Valley, it was decided to form the following expedition teams: [olist]
  • 2 Penguin Soldiers for security
  • 1 Penguin Builder for mining ore in the caves
  • He will need 1 Pickaxe as a tool
  • 3 Dogs to detect poisonous gases
  • 1 Big Dog to manage the pack [/olist] Such expeditions carry high risks of losing the entire team. Before setting out on a journey, make sure you are prepared to take this step. If the team is lost, there will be no reward. What lies in the caves of Death Valley is unknown, but rumors suggest there are deposits of very valuable minerals and even treasures.
    We are publishing a detailed table of Penguin Eggs hatching.
