Hello and Happy New Year! This post contains few updates on what I've been doing over the last weeks.
Discord server launch
Octohill now has an official discord server! You can join it from links on Steam pages, or through a new button in demo UI. There's not a lot going on there, but feel free to discuss any topics related to the game with me or other players.
Visual effects
Skiers and snowmobiles now leave pretty trails in the snow, and cast snow dust clouds when breaking snow at high speeds. It is already part of the demo, the screenshots and trailers will be gradually updated later to capture these effects.
Bugfixes
A couple of rare but critical bugs are fixed now so hopefully no crashes for demo players anymore. Also, AMD GPUs support for Linux has arrived (this includes SteamOS)!

Octohill is a casual ski resort simulator where you can try to build and manage your own resort on one of the countless mountain maps. You will be drawing trails and terraforming slopes, managing finances, transportation, construction and maintenance, but the game main focus is on careful planning.
Design your resort from the bottom
In Octohill, you are building your ski resort from scratch. You will be choosing best spots on the slopes, prepare terrain and mark areas for the trails, connect them to ski lifts and public roads and provide all the services your visitors look for. With intuitive building mechanics and fixed grid layout you may relax and focus on planning and creativity.
Raise to the top
Your resort will attract very few visitors in the beginning, but as you cater to their needs your reputation will rise, allowing more people on your slopes and bigger incomes in your bills. Every skier has their own preferences and skills, keep that in mind when planning another expansion as you need to keep your resort profitable and your visitors satisfied.
Choose your own mountain
Octohill comes with several default maps based on the real world locations such as French Alps or Rocky Mountains, which you can use to recreate one of the famous resorts. But if you get bored with them, you may also try highly customizable procedurally generated maps, or even use your own heightmap image.
