Farm and Mine received big content update v.1.4.3

Farm and Mine
A downloadable game for Windows and Linux

Hello! Our Farm and Mine has been live for 3 years already and yesterday we released the next content update. It's based mainly on the feedback we receive for our posts here, in r/incremental_games, and also in our Discord community.

In the previous version the players faced three main inconveniences. 

1. The Refrigerator produced way too much ice to be used by the Lemonade maker. Also, after upgrading the White Cat, the milk produced by the Cow was also in abundance. So, a natural solution came - to use milk, ice and sugar to produce ice-cream! Also, this content addition aligns with the current extremely hot summer.

2. As the line of the houses grew longer, it took the transporting cart longer and longer to deliver resources to the construction site. And the players who played Idle Tower Builder suggested that we integrate the engine elements from that game into Farm and Mine. So, the construction crane was added, with own transporter cart. After its invention the player can expand the houses and gain more living places.

3. Most of the sellers' upgrades had the effect of increasing the selling price. Only the vegetable, milk and grocery sellers increased the selling quantities. And many resources tended to stockpile. So, we added Marketing invention, which is multi-leveled. With every level this invention increases the amounts of simultaneously sold goods.

Also there are several convenience/rebalansing updates. For example, now it's possible to redistribute prestige points in batches of 10, 100 or 1000. Also the prices of the goods in the Grocery were increased. And the requirements for building the initial houses are reduced to let the new players get into the game easier.

Another big addition is the Tasks system. Once in a while the player will be given a task, like "Produce 1000 Perfume". Performing this task will give resources: money, idea or prestige.

The game is available on
