For the last couple of weeks, we have been thinking about how to better visualize the part of House Flipper 2 that some of you may not know. Till now, we only showcased it during occasional developer streams as well as on a couple of screenshots. Since it's going to be an extremely important part of HF2, we've decided to create a trailer that is going to showcase the vast majority of features available there.


We, the devs, created each and every house in our game using the tools found in the Sandbox Mode.
Now, with the upcoming release of House Flipper 2, it's going to be your turn to sit behind the controls!
Create and share your own custom houses and quests, completely from the ground up!

After you're done, share them with the House Flipper community through MOD.io, and let your friends play through your creations, and complete the jobs you set up for them!
Sharing your creations has never been easier before!



We're thrilled to be posting this, as deep in our hearts we have huge expectations when it comes to the Sandbox Mode.

Just as a reminder, House Flipper 2 is going to be divided into 2 modes:
- The Story Mode, which is the one you know from the first House Flipper already.
- The additional Sandbox Mode, which is basically a "House Flipper goes fully creative", as presented in the above trailer. From an empty plot to a 3-story mansion or whatever else you may like!

Thank you so much for being here with us and patiently waiting for the release in December.
We can't wait either, but before that comes, we still have some extra stuff waiting for you, just to spice up the atmosphere and tease you with some juicy sneak peeks.

Hello Flippers!

We hope you're enjoying your time in Maplebloom Village. We want you to feel at home in the countryside, so we have another hotfix addressing the issues present in the Farm DLC.

Have a wonderful rest of the week, and remember to stay hydrated and stuff, love ya! ❤️❤️

Dear Flippers,

This is going to be a little bit of a "behind the scenes" post, as we'd like to delve into the adventures we experienced during most likely the biggest gaming industry event of the year - Gamescom 2023, on which we went for it and revealed the release date for House Flipper 2!

At the same time, we'd like to warmly thank everyone who attended the event and send special kudos to those who visited our booth. Being there really showed us how numerous (the number of people was just crazy!), chatty (loved chatting with you guys about some nostalgic retro game vibes... and about HF2 of course!), and stylish (don't even get me started on the crazy cosplays!) the global gaming community is!

---

August 21 was officially the first day of the event... but! A special Frozen District team was tasked with appearing in Cologne a couple of days earlier to make sure everything regarding the construction of our booth as well as the technological support of it goes according to the grand plan.

We all started packing, and the very first of our agents arrived in Cologne on August 19. The next morning, they approached the exhibition halls ready to check and report the situation!
Fortunately, everything about the booth itself looked great, and we had some outstanding PCs waiting for us ready to be unpacked and put into action. The preparations got into top gear.



The rest of the "Frozen District + Frozen Way Gamescom crew" arrived in the late evening of August 20. After a pretty long trip, we had a chance to get some proper sleep and prepare ourselves for whatever came the next day.

---

The first day of the event was the press day, so it was a bit chill!
We had a great time talking with influencers and press from all around the world, and we had a blast streaming for you live from Gamescom to reveal the release date of House Flipper 2!


And then it all started!
With our eyes wide open,
our House Flipper 2 knowledge sharpened,
and our social batteries charged to the maximum,
WE FACED THE GAMERS!


Our booth at a constant maximum capacity, going strong, not giving up!
Our defense strategy? Well, we had to come up with some DIY ideas for some tiny issues, and as always the answer is DUCT TAPE! Optimize the queues!


More and more waves of gamers were arriving at the booth. We had a chance to meet lots of newcomers experiencing flipping for the first time, as well as some really hardcore Flippers with hundreds or even thousands of hours of playtime.

I gotta admit that the excitement and energy from the House Flipper fans queuing up to play the HF2 demo and chat with us was on a completely different level!
For the following days, all our Frozen District and Frozen Way warriors were fighting to their absolute limits!






Some have fallen... but thanks to their efforts, more and more gamers were finding joy amongst the plywood walls of our beloved booth!
[DISCLAIMER: No developers were harmed in the making of this blog post.]
In the end, our shifts were not that long and we had enough time to regenerate, so no worries!

As more and more gamers were leaving our booth with a bag of merch goodies and their minds (hopefully) filled with positive emotions, we were getting closer and closer to the last day of Gamescom!

On Sunday, it was time to pack up our things, deconstruct our now field-tested booth, and soon after that say goodbye to Cologne! Luckily, we still had a bit of extra time for some tourism before we flew back to Poland.

Overall, the event was... well... it's no surprise that it's considered to be the biggest one in the world.
We left the place with a strong feeling of accomplishment and our minds full of memorable moments with the fans! Once again, we thank you so much, and hope to bring you a fantastic new gaming experience at the end of this year!

Today we present you a brand new update for House Flipper.
It's actually a unique kind of content, the first one of this type for us so please let us know what you think about it.

For a very long time Flippers had no way to try out the content available in House Flipper DLCs.
We felt like it's time to change that, and create something that will allow you to test the grounds and go for a more conscious purchase.

With this update, you will be able to play some demonstrative job orders from the Garden, HGTV, and Luxury DLCs without having to own them. We hope this will give you just enough insight into the type of content each of those DLCs contain.

What you can expect:

• Three new jobs added to base game to show you the mechanics and environments from the Garden, HGTV and Luxury DLCs
  
• Three houses based on the Demo jobs
  
• Around 100 new items such as kitchen sets, tables, cabinets and wardrobes

---

Along with the update, we're also releasing a bunch of new Farm DLC improvements, here's the full list:

New additions:

• Introduced a new roof type, “Shed Roof” for Farm DLC.

General fixes:

• Significant performance optimization for Farm DLC.
  
• Transparency rendering for Steam Workshop items will now display correctly.
  
• Fixed a problem where the Paint Gun couldn't apply paint to certain individual walls.
  
• Items will now always have a valid variant selected when clicking them for the first time.
  
• Overall reduction in number of crashes throughout the game.
  
• Trees, pavements, and weeds that were previously interactable only when the Garden DLC was enabled can now also be removed while the Farm DLC is active.

Map fixes:

• Fixed item choices not loading in some Creative Quests on Luxury DLC orders.
  
• Applied further map optimizations related to disabling unseen floors.
  
• Pets will no longer freeze in place after reloading a map while they are running on tracks.
  
• Fixed unpaintable ceiling strip on “Hundred Cones” house.

House Builder Tool fixes:

• Returned House Building functionality to houses “This house was on fire” and “Historic house”
  
• Patched up a visible white line between grass and floors of created buildings.
  
• Looking at House Building quest previews will no longer cause substantial performance drops.

Can't wait to see your reactions to the video!

Of course, we still have a couple of months of hard work ahead of us.

We're preparing a new episode of the "Flipper News".
Flipper News is going to be a series of short videos which we're going to show you on our streams.
Instead of focusing on the main topic of the stream, Flipper News episodes will be full of all the surrounding, often smaller pieces of information from the world of House Flipper (and not only!).

This time we'll talk a bit about our trips to gaming industry events, House Flipper on different platforms, and possible future updates to HF!
