Hey! First of all a huge thanks to all the people sending me feedback in the community tab, via Twitter, mail or my Discord! I really appreciate your help and enthusiasm on the game.

Updated roadmap & two major features a lot of your requested

Before going into detail about the current update 1.04, I would like to mention that Ive decided to update the roadmap for Mini Countries (see Steam store page). But don't worry - its an update in a positive way! Actually I planned to create a new world and then do the mobile/switch port of the game. In the meantime I found out that its better to concentrate on the PC version first. Thats why I wanted to announce two major features in version 1.1 which will be available soon!

SANDBOX MODE: youll be able to start a random new game or you can adjust settings like map size, amount of resources, seasons and so on (see preview on Twitter).
DIFFICULTIES: a lot of people told me that the current mode starts too easy and gets too hard. Im pretty sure youll find a better fit after adding the difficulties easy, medium and hard.

Probably in version 1.2 there will be an online best time mode and more automation features as well. Currently the best time is stored locally but you will then be able to compare with other players globally. Stay tuned!

Todays update 1.04

Today there is another small update. Here are the changes:

FEATURE: Monthly summary will not fire if there is a current transport action
FEATURE: Added indicator for requested resources which can be claimed by open transport
FEATURE: Wind shader added for improving landscape
BUG: Removing connection and building returned two connections in total if connection had open transport
BUG: Sent resources will now be removed if destination building has been deleted during transport
BUG: Wrong resource combination for producing jewelry displayed in resource combination window
BUG: Fixed issues on Italy & Spain level
BUG: Fixed some translation issues

I wish you a great weekend and enjoy playing the game! :) Cheers, Christian

The development process of Mini Countries can currently be followed on YouTube in a devlog series: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCiQxQHUVo608vL11_czbiKw/

Mini Countries is a level-based strategy puzzle game where a resource transport network must be built for a country.

Each level stands for a country that has different resources and characteristics. An ever increasing number of cities requires skill and good planning to meet the global demand for resources for all cities. Points can be earned by transports and generated knowledge, which in turn can be invested in the transportation network to keep your country's demand up.

The most important functions in summary:

Trade buildings
These can be placed in resource areas to produce that resource.

Unlocking new resources
Resources are not available for each level as usual, but must be unlocked by knowledge points. Unlocking a resource increases the cost for the next resource to unlock. For this reason, it is important to think carefully about which resources you should unlock and which you should not for the moment, even though they might have other advantages.

Construction of storage buildings
The production of resources can quickly bring commercial buildings to their capacity. If the own storage is full, no more resources will be produced and you have to wait for the next production cycle. To optimize supply chains and avoid supply bottlenecks, the construction of warehouses is essential. Their large storage ensures the transport of resources even across several cities.

Seasons
Even in Mini Countries not only the sun shines. In view of the four seasons, the resource production must be planned to avoid bottlenecks. Not every resource can be produced in every season so without planning a winter onset can quickly lead to a loss of level.

City upgrading
As the number of inhabitants in the cities increases, they demand an upgrade to the next level. It is now possible to distinguish whether a city is a workers' city or a science city. Here one can choose between production advantages compared to the production of knowledge.

Industry
As cities get bigger, the demand for better resources also increases. These cannot be produced in trade buildings but require new industry buildings. These are available in different stages of construction to create a new one from one or more resources.

Marketplace
The marketplace is an additional building that allows the quick exchange of points. So here you can exchange transport for knowledge points (and vice versa).

Port
Not every resource that is demanded in a level can be produced with the available resources. Therefore, the port offers the possibility to import missing resources and - if necessary - to export excess resources in order to gain transport and knowledge points.

...and much more.

Mini Countries is inspired by games like Mini Metro and Anno 1800.
