- Democracy 4 is now in Early Access! - 7 October 2020
Yes its true! after all these years, Democracy has finally returned to steam! Democracy 4 is now in Early Access, and your people are eagerly awaiting (or dreading!) your leadership! So far the game supports English-language only on PC (but more languages are coming soon), and we have the following coutrnies in need of governing: The USA! The UK! France! Germany! Canada! Democracy 4 already has steam achievements and steam workshop support, and a full modding guide is available. If you have ever found yourself getting angry in online debates about what the government should do, now is your chance to prove conclusively that you could do a better job. Its actually way harder than it sounds, especially if you think you will be able to stick to your principles AND win re-election over multiple terms... What will people think when you legalize LSD? when you double alcohol tax? when you give…

Exciting times! Not only does today mark the first Presidential election debate in the US, its just a week away from the launch into early access of our political strategy game Democracy 4. If you want to try your hand at implementing Universal Basic Income, or maybe you want to ban teaching evolution in schools, perhaps build a border wall, or legalize heroin, or go crazy with the money printer with some helicopter money or quantitative easing... these are all options available to you in Democracy 4. Currently the game features the USA, UK, Germany and France, and we expect to add Canada before Early Access starts, with a list of other countries coming after that as we continue to work on the game in response to player feedback. Here is the official trailer: https://youtu.be/kuJGiYC4cyg I also just added a new steam guide that explains how people can create mods for the game, which we…

- Patch v1.08.04 - 25 May 2018
Mini patch. There seemed to be some issues with how the game tried to select the correct language the first time the game was run. This patch makes the game default to the language Steam is currently running in. You can still manually change the language in the in-game options like before, but hopefully this will make the game's first guess right most of the time. Any unforeseen issues, let me know! Tim

- Patch v1.07.12 - 13 December 2017
Here's a little holiday gift! This update contains a number of small bug fixes and requests I've received over the last few months. There's nothing major but I thought this would be a nice time of year to say thank you to everybody who is playing the game and to demonstrate my commitment to keep it updated and running as smoothly as your ingeniously designed production lines! Enjoy! ːsteamhappyː Changelog Added a dropdown menu to Packer so that you can choose to pack less than the maximum. Added note to mod manager saying that achievements are disabled when mods are active. Updated description on Megalines challenge so that it says "treating different cures" when you hover over. Added requirements for Expert and Master for 'The One and Only'. Fixed bug where medals that were just unlocked would disappear if you went to the menu and back. Fixed bug when modding where strings in MM/string…

- Production Line conveyor belts into early access - 4 May 2017
The upcoming tycoonist car factory game Production Line has been travelling along the development assembly line since its announcement in September last year, getting bits and pieces welded on by creator Positech. Now it’s ready for the next phase. The giant machine-like claws of Steam early access are waiting to tear it asunder and put it back together again from May 18. This also signifies that I think the game is good enough at its current state to be considered an Early Access title, says developer Cliffski , who in this metaphor is, like, a foreman with a high-vis jacket or something. Here’s a wee trailer. …
- v1.07.11 - 7 April 2017
Hey everyone, I've just released the latest patch for Big Pharma. There are no major new features but I've fixed a few bugs and added a couple of small things that get requested every now and again and were easy for me to add. Here's the changelog: ːsteamhappyː Changelog Added a count for the "maker" (Pill Printer, Creamer etc.) upgrades on the research tab. Added option to disable upgrade point indicators in video settings. Fixed a bug where if you clicked on the analyzer directly after loading up a game you could cause a weird graphical issue. Fixed bug where hover-over details on cures, on the cure tab would get hidden if you changed tabs while hovering over them. Fixed bug where if two ingredients randomly generated the same name they would cause graphical error on ingredients tab (kinda embarrassed by this one, let's just say I'm a much better programmer than I was two years ago ːs…
