Octohill 0.6 update is live now, and with it the game also joins the Winter Sale!
Update details below.
Multiple language support has been in progress for quite some time now, and it's finally ready. So far, 7 languages are supported: English, French, German, Russian, Chinese (simplified) and Japanese.
Languages other than English are prepared using machine translation (LLM based) with only surface level validation, please report any inconsistencies in the comments (or if you didn't find any issues with translation after significant playtime also mention it there, so I can remove the "machine translation" label from the language choice list)
If you want to play the game in some other languages, please indicate so, with sufficient demand I may add more of them.
One highly requested feature was dark-colored UI scheme which is delivered as an alternative dark mode. The default light color scheme also has been slightly adjusted. Hope you'll like the new colors!
When the game is launched for the first time you'll have an option to select the language and color scheme, or you can easily switch them from the game options at any moment later.
These features are present in both demo and full version.
To continue polishing up the demo, next update will most likely be dedicated to visual improvements (some VFX and dynamic trails for all the skiers and snowmobiles are planned).
