Our players range from four to 80+ years old, and almost all of our feedback was helpful, constructive, and nice. Thanks to our players, we quickly realized that the game is hard to play for colorblind people and added the colorblind mode. There was also a fascinating request for a sandbox mode where you could play with children without the pressure of money and time. This mode also appeared solely thanks to our players.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Technical Challenges that Appeared during Development<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There were quite a few challenges since this was our first &#8220;big&#8221; PC game on Unity. For example, in the early videos of the project, you can see that we experimented a lot with flexible path guidance (a lot of math behind it) but eventually abandoned it in favor of tile-based path guidance. We also had a lot of trouble with the basic Unity terrain, which adds a lot of restrictions to level design. But we&#8217;re happy with what the game ended up being.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"602\" height=\"960\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/the-evolution-and-creative-inspirations-behind-train-valley-out-today-on-xbox-2.jpg\" alt=\"PC game stats\" class=\"wp-image-185315 jetpack-lazy-image\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.xbox.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/07\/Picture1-fcdb0613a2ebb6d146b3.jpg?resize=602%2C960&amp;is-pending-load=1#038;ssl=1\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"602\" height=\"960\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/the-evolution-and-creative-inspirations-behind-train-valley-out-today-on-xbox-2.jpg\" alt=\"PC game stats\" class=\"wp-image-185315\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/figure>\n<p><strong>My Favorite Three Levels in the Game and Why.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I love the volcano level from the European season.

Next, most of the Japanese season because it&#8217;s wonderful (we tried to capture the charm of the sakura, Mount Fuji, and the first shinkansen).
