DevBlog - Central Europe

Hello scrappers,

in this blog post I would like to talk about our next big update.

A lot of players found the game too hard and difficult levels like Amsterdam coming up too soon. We heard those comments but at the same time we didn’t want to nerf these levels as more experienced players found them enjoyable.

So we came up with this solution:

We will be introducing a new Central Europe continent that will be the first continent to complete. The levels in it will be much easier, so the learning curve is more linear and by the time you reach levels like AMS you will be scrapping like a PRO.

It will contain 20 easier levels including tutorial levels Vienna and Prague that will be moved there from Western Europe. Two missing levels in Western Europe will be replaced by two new levels at the end of Western Europe.
Central Europe will also introduce 9 new planeskins to collect.

It is also worth mentioning that Western Europe will now be locked for new players until they complete 60% of speedruns in Central Europe or unlock it through in-app purchase (just like it was with Northeast America). Existing players who completed at least one level in Western Europe before update will keep it unlocked.

It will take a few more weeks to finetune the levels before we can release this update.

Stay tuned!

Tom

Great to see new regions being added, and yes, this is a very good solution to the tough levels issue.

My only request is to lower the speed run based unlock of next region to say 40% or even 50%, 60% is a bit too hard, this will give us more levels to play at once

I honestly wish that the regions would unlock after finishing a certain level threshold, as opposed to speedrun threshold. I’m more likely to play the levels to an extent as opposed to speedruns
