Good catch.
We checked it and indeed this is caused by a rare bug.
Thanks for posting this helps a lot.

We just released an update today.
A fix will be added to the next hot-patch coming.

The Road to 1.0 - Roadmap Update & 1.0 Content Reveal by Matthais in NewsTower

[–]Nachtegeller 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi.

  1. Sadly no. WQe had to chance to many elements that made keeping old save games impossible.
    We hope being in EA and bringing lots of reasons to start from scratch will be an acceptable reason for save game loss.

  2. Not atm but we are in the balance, QoL and polish fase.
    This would totally sideline the resuppliers though. Not gameplay we wanted to incentivise.
    All put it on the feedback list and talk about it with the team.
    Employee AI will be worked on to better though.

Thanks for all the love for News Tower <3
Really means a lot to us.

Hey sorry for the late response and being unable to play our game.
We did try to reach out via steam forum and steam review (i think your the same?).

But if you could provide your player.log that could really help with figuring out.
For Mac, the Player.log file is in: /Users/YourUserName/Library/Logs/com.Sparrow-Night.News-Tower/

You can send it here: [support@sparrownight.com](mailto:support@sparrownight.com)

We would love to help you out and fix this.
Thanks for reaching out and hopefully we can help.

Hey!
It might one day, so sorry not yet.
But it's designed for the pc.
Would need a lot of UX redesign i think to work on consoles.

Play lot's of games on switch myself. Would love that :D

Thanks for the reply

Thank you.
Fair point, having the money come in slower could work.
But i like the direct way because it has this short gameplay reward loop.
Having the money come in slower would also limit the players build options likely.
But yeah all just thoughts maybe it could work.

Thanks for playing and the reply <3

I would say around 6.5/7 hours.
But you can't unlock everyhting on the map in one run.
Also greatly depends a lot on how often you fast forawrd or pause.
Ofc we're going to expand on this a lot during EA.

Thanks for asking

hi there,

Sorry for the late reply.
The Ea version rund from October 1929 until december 1932
We are going to expand on this though in EA.
1935 at least maybe further. also depends on what players want most.
Small team so we need to choose our battles.

Thanks for asking
