House Flipper update patches up holes after “rough” Farm DLC launch

There’s a new House Flipper update on Steam, and it’s packed with fixes for the recently released House Flipper Farm DLC. Following a “rough” launch for the major update, which turns the renovation sim into a farming game, developer Empyrean says it has managed to track down most of the big bugs and issues faced by players “thanks to all the log files you sent us,” and has resolved many of them in its latest set of House Flipper patch notes.

“We know that the release of the Farm DLC has been rough for many of you, as there were things blocking your progress, crashing the game for ya, and causing all kinds of different bugs and optimisation problems,” the update reads, “I feel like you guys deserve an apology and an explanation.” As additional compensation, the team has also introduced a Steam sale for the base game and its various expansion packs.

The developer remarks on “a plethora of issues” that were sent in by players, thanking them for making it so easy to fix the problems with comprehensive bug reporting. It adds, “Other issues were not so easy to track through the logs, but we managed to fix them anyway!” In particular, it explains that “most of the problems happening with the Farm DLC were related to its unwanted dependencies on some other DLCs, the Pets DLC in particular.”

If you’re someone who was excited to play Farm Flipper but perhaps didn’t pick up one of the previous updates such as Garden, HGTV, Luxury, or Pets, you might have been running into some problems as a result. The good news is that those issues should now be resolved.
