Today the OpenTTD 1.11.0 went up which along with being available on Steam, it also brings in these improvements:

  • Performance improvements - Fast-Forward is now so fast, there is a setting to rate limit it (on by default).
  • Improved World Generation GUI - 100% rainforest maps are now available if you so request.
  • Towns can now grow with tunnels too - finally they can escape the hills!
  • Filter on name in many more windows - for those that enjoy playing with one too many NewGRFs.
  • Plant trees with a brush in Scenario Editor - it is like painting, but with trees.
  • A new titlegame for this release by Chrnan6710, who won this year’s competition.

Additionally over 100 bugs and smaller improvements were made, making it quite a big polishing release to give the best experience possible. For a full overview see the changelog.

Grab it free from the official site or now Steam too.

A seriously addictive game.

I am a little surprised they are making it Free on Steam. I thought they might put a small price on it to help fund development.

Nice work by all involved!

I think this game is in a grey area as it is, since it's basically a copy of Tim Sawyer's Transport tycoon. Going for a steam release is already a very bold move, selling it for a price would be quite outrageous.
