Recording games and TubeStim - coming to Tube Tycoon v2

Apr 17

Whaaaazzaaaapp Tube Tycooners!?

It might be already a week since the “2024 Total Solar Eclipse” but we hope you didn’t throw your glasses into the bin yet, because it’s time to reveal this week’s ✨shiny✨ new features of the upcoming beta! In case you missed the news, we are on the road to Tube Tycoon 2 [Beta 1] and each week we reveal new or redesigned features of the upcoming release!

Ever felt like the games on TubeStim are boring? Time to say goodbye to that! :TealFire:

TubeStim has been a part of Tube Tycoon from the very beginning.. after all you can’t record games if you don’t own them, so it deserved some change!

Fresh design with distinctive colors and icons for each game. Be sure to check out their new descriptions!
<In later betas>Even more games to record!
<In later betas> Games will now require additional "skill points" to be recorded. You gain skill by recording other games!

And as for recording games...

You’ve got so many of them but only 3 slots to record…well check this out! Now recording games lives inside the new "Record" tab!

You can buy multiple games without the need of assigning a recording slot to them! Talk about a change!
Each purchased (and not recorded game) awaits for it's start of a series
You can record up to 4 games at once!
Once you complete the game series, you will have an option to record a game review video

And that’s it for this week’s Feature Reveal!

Hyped?! As expected, especially since the next Feature Reveal is going to be the last one, followed by the lo and behold - v2 Beta 1 release! Be sure to mark the date which is 🎉 24th April 🎉 or join our Discord[discord.gg] to not miss out and until the next announcement 🫡 Hype-train departures!

Recording videos and thumbnails - coming to Tube Tycoon v2

Apr 10

Goooood morning TubeTycooners! ːTubeTycoonː

If you haven't seen latest news - we are on the road to Tube Tycoon 2 [Beta 1]. Every week you will learn about new or refreshed feature of the Tube Tycoon 2, and it is time for the second week of Features Reveal! What tasty sneak peaks do we have cooking in here you ask? 👨‍🍳

Learn more HERE

Redesign of the most crucial part in the game - the Record Page! 🎉

Until now, you had to switch between vlogs section and games section (not to mention confusing tabs and special features like DigCraft or TubeStim 😵‍💫)

Now everything will be conveniently at the tip of your hand!

List of all video types you can record in one place
A special recent tab that will list out the videos/series you recently recorded

And to nicely wrap it up, there’s going to be added a feature of recording special one-time videos such as a celebration of your first 100 subscribers! What’s a better excuse to pop a champagne? 🍾

“…but wait, there’s more!”

After recording a video (especially a milestone special) it’s mandatory to make it catch an eye, right? It would be a shame for all your hard work to be seen by just 7 people (and one of these are your parents) so it’s about time to make your videos more ✨unique✨. Now every video will have an exclusive thumbnail!

Fully-featured thumbnail generator
Ability to change the thumbnails - don’t like the one you see? Simply randomize a new one!
Over the course of the game you will unlock more appealing thumbnail designs

All aboard the hype-train, next station: Feature Reveal week 3!

Don’t have your ticket? No worries, you can get one at https://discord.gg/TubeTycoon! Now hurry up before it departures :TTPROFESSOR:

Editor beta - 0.3 update

Mar 22, 2020

Hey there!
Thank you all for great two weeks of testing Tube Tycoon Editor BETA 🎉 - We've gathered lots of feedback and ideas to make this tool even better!

Here are today's patch notes:
- Added scenario settings tab - edit appearance and preview it in new game window
- Various graphic changes, changed left sidebar design for better readability
- Hover on event/video to remove or duplicate
- Left sidebar is now scrollable - especially for larger files with lots of events and videos!
- When creating new event/video, first field is now focused to change it's name quickly and scrolls to top

That update does not bring a lot to editor, but changes a lot in code and prepares for future functionality!

How to roll in?

To take part in the beta, you’ll need to to select beta branch in steam properties:
1. Open Steam, navigate to Tube Tycoon
2. Click settings icon and then “properties”
3. Select “beta testing” tab and from dropdown select “EditorBeta”
Now, the game should be updated with the new editor. PLEASE TAKE A NOTE, that this beta disables gameplay completely - if you’d like to play Tube Tycoon with all your previous saves, repeat the steps and and on the last step select “NONE”

Feedback

It's been a long time behind the curtains, but it is finally time to show you some stuff coming to Tube Tycoon in the near future! To start things of, we would like to tell you about the new scenario editor - part of the Tube Tycoon 2.0 update.

Design beautiful dialogs or chat windows to tell your story
Create new video types to record
Generate complex titles using build-in videos title generator

Quick Q&A:

> Who will be able to access beta of the editor?
Everyone who purchased the game!

> Is there any new update to the game?
Beta editor release does not updates the main Tube Tycoon game - but eventually it will be part of the new free 2.0 Tube Tycoon update.

> How about reviving the Discord server?
We are planning to do so this week!

Thank you for creating great Tube Tycoon community, see you soon!
