Unique mix of a rouge like RPG, with a train simulator and a real-time tactics in the realistic world of the U.S. 1860 - 1870. The hero has a steam train. Not a brand new train (even for 1860 years) but good enough to pull few old carriages and deliver some cargo or passengers. But Why does he own the train? Because it's the best way to travel across the country to find missed family members. That's why he came to the US. It is his main goal. The only one problem - trains are often attacked by robbers, native americans and even the regular army. A solid crew of gunfighters and some special devices as cannons, can solve the problem. Search city by city, speak with many interesting persons to get any useful information about your family. Change your locomotives and carriages, equip your train with the special devices, hire characters that can enforce your train crew, trade goods, complete quests, discover and change the US history and hurry up, time is running out!

Hey Guys,

Today I’m going to tell you about our progress with cities, but first of all I want to apologies for the release shift. We wanted to release Beta version in May, but then understood that it is impossible and shifted the release. I don't want to promise a new date again. Let's say it will be this summer :)

But let’s get back to “Bounty Train”.
We continue our work with cities. After several tests we decided to use real time shadows in cities for PC version. For iOS and Android we still need some investigations to understand is it possible for tablets without a big performance penalty. Anyway we will try our best, because real time shadows are so cool.

Less buttons – more clickable buildings!

In the city we removed as much buttons as we can. Now to enter a depot you need to click the depot. To enter a marketplace need to tap the marketplace. To enter a city hall you need to... yes! Click the city hall!


Also there is no more button for coal purchasing. Now coal is in the marketplace and you can purchase it as an ordinary cargo.
Another big improvement is the train movement on the map. You can build your personal route by tapping several cities in a certain sequence. Then just to select cities to stop and cities to skip. Or you can clear up your way by clicking "clear" button and then mark a new one.

Building a route at the map

That's all for now! See Ya Later!
