Electric Dreams: Early Preview

Development of the Electric Dreams campaign is well underway.

There is still a lot to do, but for the curious, here is an early preview, showing electric trains and how to build a power delivery infrastructure.

  1. Very addictive game, great work by all the team at Deckeleven.com
    Would be great for a mega sandbox, say, twice the size of the Huge sandbox, with up to 10 Cities.

    1. Thanks for the feedback 🙂
      The huge sandbox is already the maximum reasonable for mobile devices. Maybe it would be possible for computer devices, like chromebooks, but we have limited support for that right now.
      I’ll add the suggestion to the todo list anyway.
      We plan to greatly improve the sandboxes after the electric campaign is done.

  2. Great work sir. This game has become far more than just a game. The concepts, animations & logics are as good as real. When can I get my hands-on the electric campaign. Dying to play it.

    1. Thanks 🙂
      I’d say the development of the electric campaign is halfway done now.

  3. Highly addictive game. Can’t wait for new update.
    Sir is there any beta program available? If so please count me in.

    1. Thanks 🙂
      There is no beta program per se, but sometimes there is a call of beta testers.
      You can follow the blog to get periodic info

    2. In oil abroad mission 10 west country 90201 ,how we connect electricity from coal power plant to carduff?

      1. You don’t have to. It’s already connected. Just deliver enough coal to the power plant.

  4. Congratulations. As usual great work and the electric campaign preview looks very good.
    If you looking for alpha or beta testers count me in too.
    Thanks

  5. I am very big fan of your game. Hope you making this for windows also. i am also requesting that makes same for highways, cities and many more. But i am big fan of railroads itself.

    1. I’m glad you like it 🙂
      First we have to finish the electric campaign and the improved sandboxes, then we’ll see what the plan is.

    1. Not in Railroads, as this is not the point of the game, but maybe in a very distant future if we make a city building game.

  6. Looking forward to the next installments…my thing is can we get a large and a huge storage depots as 40 items isn’t much space…

  7. Хорошая игра. Для телефона самое то. Понимаю, что не компьютер. Я ещё с первой части заинтеровался. С удовольствием покупаю. Жду обновлений, удачи Вам! И будет ли поддержка русского языка? Хотя бы сайт блог, я думаю русскоязычных пользователей много…

    1. Hello. Thanks for your comment.
      We do have Russian speaking players, and also with many other languages, unfortunately we don’t have any Russian speaking person in the team, so sorry if we can’t answer in your language.
      If the game is doing well, it is possible that we decide at some point to add translations.

  8. I LOVE THIS GAME. Is there Any Chance To Get me in the board aswell? iam really good at creative ideas.
    JK.. i would like to add some ideas like creating real time Cities upgrade Like In map Showing population and automatically building constructions shown while city is getting upgraded aswell as same implied to factories. and also for attraction we can create bridges (remove ground layer so to bring a river front type) where ever we want to. I hope The Developer’s try to implement this ideas.

    And i want to say you guys did a great job with this game 👌👌👍👍👍.. Loved your game very much

    1. Thanks 🙂
      Cities could use some improvements, like evolving traffic and greater variety in buildings. If time permits, maybe it will possible after the electric campaign and sandboxes developments are done.
      Feel free to post your ideas.

  9. Hello Team, you have made a Fantastic game. I love to play it whenever bored. I would say you all to continue this awesome efforts and implement something new in the cities and the factories. Things that can be done is Live traffic, City scape, Live constructions and much more. Also, I would like to know as when you will be releasing the electric dreams? I am waiting impatiently for the last stand!

    1. Hello and thanks 🙂 We don’t have an exact release date, but based on our current progress, it should be in 2-3 months if everything goes smoothly.

  10. I am a long awaiting player dying to taste the electric trains. When will it be available, any update please for peace of mind.

    1. We don’t have an official release date, but we are working on it. It takes time to do something of quality, but I hope you’ll enjoy the end result.

  11. Nice! I hope you add another looks of coaches for the passengers that will more suitable for the electric dream. And also adding a bus and trucks as a “feeder” so that it will help the trains to transfer goods from one another. Just a suggestion. I’m from the Philippines btw

    1. Hi!
      I like your new coach look idea. I’ll add it to the todo list for consideration.
      Buses and trucks are not part of the plan for the time being.

  12. Oh okay. I understand. I hope you can add a sugar mill/farm and expanding the long train permit into 10 cars for more goods to transport. Can’t wait to play electric dream😁

    1. Thanks 🙂
      Tunnels are in the todo list. We’ll study what we can do in this list after the electric campaign is done.

  13. Absolutely unbelievable game! By far the best Android mobile game I have ever played! Please keep updating the game and adding content. So many hundreds of thousands of people share my opinion!!

    Thank you so much!

    Drew

    1. Many thanks 🙂
      We are currently working hard on the electric campaign update. It takes a lot more time than expected, but we’re still at it.

  14. I am thoroughly enjoying the game, and am grateful for all the work you’ve done. I particularly enjoy the levels where the criteria change (such as greenwashing) and the ones where the financial situation is more complicated. The variety really makes for more interesting playability. Like everyone else I love the game and cannot wait for Electric Dreams!

    1. Thanks a lot 🙂
      Railways electrification really adds a lot to the gameplay, so I hope you’ll like it too.

  15. Hello Developers.. This is the great game in Railway category. The concept, the Logic, the planing, the Maps, the Variety all are soo Good… I like this game very much… But there is one problem… This game Consumes lot of Battery.. There are optimizations Required for battery Consumption…. Also there is a Bug when we connect 2 same stations with multiple Tracks for example 3 tracks… All the train joining those two stations automatically choose one same track instead of Other unocupy track.. so to make trains chose different track we have to manually select Points (A,B,C etc) to put train on different tracks to get rid of collisions or stucking on signals… Please look after this 2 issues.. the high battery consumption is a major one.

    Thank you for this awesome game.. I hope electric dreams will release soon…

    1. Hello and thanks 🙂
      However, in version 2.4.1 and +, you can select between “performance” and “battery-saving” modes in the settings (from the main menu). You can also change the graphics level and details to reduce battery usage.

        1. I’m not sure I understand your second issue. The router will always choose the shortest path between two stations. If you want a different path for a second train, it’s normal that you have to choose the alternate path manually.
          For multi-platforms stations, it’s a bit different. The router will create a multi-paths route and takes path usage into account to spread paths around and better balance the route.
          If you think you have found a bug, it would be better to submit a bug report with a screenshot.

  16. I hope there is a new factory to generate electric sheep for the android overlords

    1. 😀 Trust me, the android overlords sleep is just fine. No sheep required.

  17. Thanks for an amazing game, eagerly awaiting the electric trains. Keep up the amazing work.

  18. Great work on the game so far! I just started donating. To anyone who is reading these Q &A donated what ever you can afford to this guy. As you all can see he does really good work in his spare time. So if you want to help him out with his next update/ future game updates then donate to him so he can get the time to make that happen. Show your love for what he has created and that we all enjoy playing for hours on end!

  19. I can’t download the game from playstore I have try every method but they keep telling me “can’t install the game” help me

  20. I really love this game,I am addicted and playing so much,but my only sadness is this electric package is not for free,thats all,i can understand you guys need money to work more and create more,I have a suggestion,You can add a new campgain with futuristic trains called Future Dreams.

    1. Hi. Thanks for your comment. I’m glad you like the game 🙂
      I understand your feeling. I know that the time are tough, and not everybody can put money into games.

      But let me take a minute to give you my perspective:
      This game took more than 4 years to make, and countless sleepless hours on my free time. It’s a very complicated project for only one person: 70000+ lines of code, and more than 600 3D models and textures.
      I estimate that, if this game had to be made by a game studio, the development only would have cost more than 150000 US dollars (10 millions Indian rupees), and much more in marketing and support functions. Actually no respectable game studio would make this game, because it has no chance of being profitable in the long run.

      I tried to be fair when pricing the campaigns. The price tag is as low as possible.

      To give you an idea, the price of the Electric Dreams campaign, where I live, is less than the price of a coffee or a chai. An know that, on this coffee, 30% is “drank” by Google, and another 40% is “drank” by the government in various taxes.

      So no, I’m not really into it for the money. I work on passion only 😉
      Tell yourself, that when you buy the game, you don’t pay the actual fair price for the stuff. Instead you actually pay to support the developer, and tell your appreciation for making a game that shouldn’t exist otherwise.

      And I thank you all for that!
