Thank you for making great games, This War of Mine and especially Frostpunk are some of my favorite games of all time. I am quite excited for Frostpunk 2 and the Alters.

Game looks great! But the UI does not seem "Frostpunk" its a bit too clean and some menu screens is just a wall of white! it hurts the eyes.

The societal/political element is something I really like in the first game and I'm glad its more in depth here - its something I'd like to see in more of these types of games - now imagine a political layer in a Roman themed game.

I never actually got around to playing the first Frostpunk, but watching videos I always thought it had a spectacularly good looking UI. This one seems like a step down in that regard, which is a shame since it's here I was planning to jump in myself.

@WhatDarrenPlays 2 ай бұрын

Oh really? Damn I think they've universally improved the UI here. The only thing I don't like is the complete white law screen, there is a tab in there that inverts the colours to a dark mode basically, so im hoping they let you apply that yourself. But other than that, the actual world UI, the layout, tooltips etc. and integration of large moving art I think is brilliant.

Im just now playing the first one. Its really good. Definitely a good spin on traditional city builders. Frostpunk 2 looks to be a completely different style. Frostpunk 1 goes on sale a lot, so i would suggest getting it if you like city builders. Its awesome. Then you can grab 2 when it comes out this summer! I believe they will both be worth playing!

Its clear that they've decided to have this game on a different scale, hours are days, buildings are districts, instead of named individuals its 100's of workers at a time. It does seem quite a departure from the first one in many respects, but I think it looks like an interesting progression.
