New characters to play. Greenhorns Isabelle and Kai join the oil business and could use your knowledge of pumping and drilling.
A new village is being built in this area and its mayor wants you in on the spoils. Meet Maeve, Jack and Philip who will help you make the most of your land ownership.
Three new areas to explore containing magma, a new way to control the oil and gas supplies in a level. Unlock its full potential by buying Jack’s upgrades in the village.
A completely overhauled stock auction replacing the Dutch Auction of the original campaign. Overbid your opponents with outlandish piles of cash, or let them fight it out between each other while you bide your time.
Anthony has started a treasure collection in the Underground. Dig up the treasures found in the land and he will help you out. Missed a spot? Buy the missing parts of your collection on the Treasures Marketplace.

Modding

You can now add dialog and images for your own characters. Find out how in this guide: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1306643424
Send your creations to turmoilmods@gamious.com and we will share the best in a news post!

Graphics

The player now has a brighter golden portrait making it easier to distinguish your character at any time.
The end of game statistics have been improved with a new look to better fit the game.
All character portraits have been updated with shading.
Updated the credits screen with a new look.

Quality of life

Your campaign will now be saved when going back to the main menu, after a land auction and after a stock auction.
When playing the Weekly Challenge you get a small introduction about the area that you are playing in.
You can now buy village upgrades using enter.
Closing a Mayor’s Tip no longer directly exits to the village, instead it brings you back to the overview.
You can now close joints before they have finished building, to make it easier to plan ahead and not spill any gas. Re-opening a joint before it is finished will refund the costs.
Upgrades bought by rivals are now more clearly displayed.
Improved tooltip contrast in the land auction and upgrades scroll.
The village shops will now display a “sold out” text when there are no more upgrades to be bought, including future unlocks.
Several localization improvements.

Balance

Decreased the minimum and increased the maximum amount of possible oil, gas and rock for the Weekly Challenge.

Bugfixes

Fixed that sound and visual effects were not properly played when selling gas.
Fixed that the game would crash if noone made a bid in the stock auction because the AI was out of money.

Happy drilling! And stay tuned, we'll soon be back with news about a new challenge game mode!

Turmoil offers players a visually charming, tongue-in-cheek take on the simulation genre inspired by the 19th century oil rush in North America. Get a taste of the rush and rivalry of the time as you earn your way to become a successful oil entrepreneur. As you make money digging up and selling oil, the town will grow along with you.

Lease land at the town auction and search for oil. Build a rig, create an efficient pipe network and bring up the oil to store it in silos. Sell the oil at the best times to maximize profits. Then buy essential upgrades in town to cope with rock, gas and ice. Acquire more town shares than your competitors in a bid to become the new mayor.

A campaign where you build your rags-to-riches oil baron career and beat your rivals.
Dozens of upgrades and new tools to improve your oil mining operations.
Meet the town’s characters in the saloon and make shady business deals.
Play single game mode to get one of literally millions of procedurally generated levels and earn as much as you can in one year.
Steam Achievements, Badges, Trading Cards and Cloud Saving.
Lease land at the town auction and search for oil using a dowser, mole or scanner.
Maximize your profits by using natural gas to boost the oil price.
Outbid your competitors at the stock auction.
