Trolley Problem, Inc. news & patch notes

Samuel Read-Graves here once again, with another choice for you: You’re unsure about Trolley Problem, Inc. Some people seem to really love what the game is doing. Other people don’t understand satire. You want to be on the right side of history, but don’t fancy risking the asking price, despite it being priced fairly reasonably, comparing favourably with time spent at the cinema, for example, though with the added advantage of you don’t have to put up with the horrendous noise of people munching on popcorn... unless that's you. Should you download the demo? Yes No The Trolley Problem, Inc. demo is now live and invites you to play through the game’s first five days. If you like what you saw and want to play more, your progress from the demo will continue into the full version, which will also unlock all the lovely Twitch integration and other modes. I’m hoping this short taster will offer everyone the confidence to buy the full version if they so choose. Thanks as ever for everyone for their support. It’s been a real thrill seeing the reaction to the game – some positive, some negative, all valid. I created it in order to start conversations about some deeply philosophical questions and it is doing just that. I just can’t believe how few of you save the dog...

Hi all, it's Sam Read-Graves once again – developer of Trolley Problem, Inc. We have just put out an update with a load of feedback from the community, some optimisations, a few bug/language fixes and best of all a summary of your playthrough in the credits! Being able to see just how many people you killed and how much you agree with the others around the world in the credits is a great end to the experience and something we have wanted to implement for a while now, just different launch-y bits got in the way! When you replay with friends and family make sure to look out for it! Also, remember if you play with someone else your results will be compared on each level end screen! To my knowledge, from going through all the Steam comments, twitter messages and emails we've fixed all the problems which have popped up BUT as with all games there will be something new at some point, so if you see anything 'odd' then let me know and I will look into it. The fastest way is on Twitter, @samreadgraves, DMs are open. I look forward to hearing from you, and thanks again for playing! Best, Sam xoxo PS: If you've enjoyed your experience with the game, please do leave a positive review here - it really helps!

Hi all, it's Sam Read-Graves again – developer of Trolley Problem, Inc. I'm very excited to announce that from today until May 9th we will be a part of LudoNarraCon! This is a massive deal for me as I’ve long admired the event as a player, so to be selected to participate myself is a real honour. In the line-up are some truly amazing games and I urge everyone to check it out. As part of the event I will be live streaming with the Trolley Problem, Inc. Publisher Yogscast Games! This will be on their main channel (https://www.twitch.tv/yogscast) and streamed straight to our store page! We will be going live on Saturday 7th from 2-5pm BST (England time). But I can hear you all crying out "we have only just played the game, why would I want to watch you play it again so soon?" Well, don’t worry: I have gimmicks! Firstly, while playing we will be chatting through some BTS stuff (behind the scenes, not the pop sensation) and answering questions from chat BUT due to this potentially being the last stream I do (#cancelreadgraves) I wanted to make sure all my own dreams come true. While playing and answering questions from chat I will also be taking on the HOTS ONES spicy wings of death! Wish me luck! I hope this is something ridiculous which may take your fancy, but if not, thanks for reading and thanking you even more for playing! Best, Sam xoxo PS: If you've enjoyed your experience with the game, please leave a review here - it really helps!

Hi all, it’s Sam Read-Graves here – developer of Trolley Problem, Inc. and person whose decisions you argue or agree with after every question (some answers are to push buttons, I'm not a monster!). I wanted to thank you all so much for downloading and playing the game. It’s been wonderful reading about your experiences or watching you wrestle with the dilemmas on streams – the fact that nearly half a million hours have been watched on Twitch alone since launch is incredible! I wanted to create a game which sparked debate, and it’s certainly done that. Thank you! I’ve read all the feedback – positive and negative – and I’m really grateful for everyone who’s taken the time to leave a review. We’re tweaking the game today slightly in response, so the build now:- Corrects a couple of typos in other languages – apologies for those Fixes a couple of issues we spotted with the Twitch integration Adjusts some of the art within the game We will continue to monitor your feedback, so please do let us know how you get on. We’re really keen to continue polling players on their choices, so a reminder that you can have up to three active profiles within the game – and all decisions are compared with each other in the summary after every question. So if you’ve ever really wondered what your partner/child/best mate is *really* like, then do ask them to play. If you ever find yourself tied to a railway line with them next to a lever, your life could depend on it. Best, Sam xoxo PS: If you've enjoyed your experience with the game, please do leave a positive review here - it really helps!
