It’s Friday, so it can mean only one thing: time to show you something new from our works on ATS!
It's been a long time since we've been in some more civilized places in Alaska, that’s why we’re inviting you to smaller cities, where life goes on differently.
We’re curious if recognize the buildings that were present in previous DevLogs :)
In the end, we would like you to show another object straight from Alaskan roads. Even if you didn't have occasion to take a trip on the Stampede route, you may see this characteristic bus in some movie, which is an adaptation of a book that was released in 1996. Do you already know what movie and book is this?
Take care of yourself, and, as usual, see you next week! :)

#31 Alaskan Truck Simulator DevLog
Hi,
So far, we've only been showing the truck in daylight. It’s time for something new! You can see on timelapse the progress of the daytime and how it effects on truck’s lights.
And since we've already shown the night, it's also worth showing how the truck lights work in its two modes.
There are also available the other lighting elements, such as direction indicators and hazard lights.
That’s all for today. See you next week!

#30 Alaskan Truck Simulator DevLog
Hello! Another Friday here! We hope that you had a calm last week :)
Today, we’d want to show you some of the new buildings, that you’ll have an opportunity to pass during your journeys in the Alaskan Truck Simulator.
Alaskan architecture isn’t only simple houses. We’ll also pass the inns, motels, and hotels. There’ll be a lot of this by road! After all, sometimes you need to rest and straighten your back :)
In the end, we have one more view from the Alaskan lands. May the same peace also be in the life of each of you.
And that’s all for this week. Hang in there and remember to take care for each other. See ya! Westend Studio & Movie Games
#29 Alaskan Truck Simulator DevLog
Hi!
It is time to show you traffic. It includes elements such as driving on roads, intersections, traffic lights, and much more. We’ll surely show you more of that in future devlogs!
On the first footage, you can see an intersection with traffic lights. The traffic jams can also happen in Alaska!
On this one, the same intersection but from inside the truck.
The last one presents joining the traffic from the subordinated road.
We will also take the opportunity to say something about the game from our colleagues :slight_smile: Would you ever thought to throw it all away, and set off to unknown on your own two wheels? Check the American Motorcycle Simulator and prepare for the big adventure on legendary Route 66!
Like every Friday, we’re back with new informations about our work progress.
This week, we’ve focused again on making vehicle models, that you’ll have the opportunity to see on the road to make it a little bit less monotonous.
As you can see below, for some citizens of Alaska, their love for classics is more important than functionality and reliability.
But also the amount of heavy vehicles isn’t low.
Would you want to see some specific models of cars on the roads of Alaska? Let us know, we'd be happy to look at your ideas, and we'll definitely pick something :)
Stay safe! Westend Studio & Movie Games
#27 Alaskan Truck Simulator DevLog
Hello,
Today, we have for you a new portion of the gameplay elements! This time, parts of the truck’s interior. Except the classic keybindings, we’ve implemented an ability of direct interaction with objects.
On the first footage, you can see a functional sun visor, that’ll help in seeing the road during strong sunlight.
On the next one, wipers ;)
The last footage presents the use of a truck’s bed, that we can sleep in during long trips.
That’s all for today. See you next week!

#26 Alaskan Truck Simulator DevLog
Hello everyone!
In the last week, you could see another truck mechanics. This week, we would like to show you yet another truck!
The inside of the truck is a very important place for every trucker. We hope that you’ll spend a lot of time in this place too ;) That is why we have a very important question: what kind of decorations would you like to see inside your own vehicle? We will gladly listen to your ideas.
In the end: a sneak peek. Manoeuvre of passing on the narrow road of two heavy vehicles. It can be difficult, do you think you would do it?
Have a nice weekend, and see you next week!

#25 Alaskan Truck Simulator DevLog
Hi,
Two weeks ago, we showed you some of the gameplay mechanics. We noticed that many of you were paying attention to individual mechanics, so we decided that every second week we will present more details about each of them.
This week we want to show you how the suspension and differential lock mechanism works.
The next one shows how, due to the differential, the loss of adhesion of one wheel to the ground can make it impossible to drive into an obstacle.
Luckily, the differential lock allows us to solve that problem and beat those difficulties.
That’s all for today. See you next week!

#24 Alaskan Truck Simulator DevLog
Hello everyone!
Last time, we’ve shown you a few basic gameplay mechanics from the world of the Alaskan Truck Simulator. There’ll be more things like that, so it’s worth waiting! But for now, we’re back to the views of the Alaskan lands, that you’ll have an opportunity to see while executing your cargo transport orders.
When creating the map, we care to give you an open world that you’ll be able to explore it on many ways. Open spaces, wonderful views, we hope you’ll like it!
That’s all for this week, see you in next one!
Hang in there!

#23 Alaskan Truck Simulator DevLog
Hello, truckers!
It’s Friday, so that means just one thing - time for the weekly DevLog!
We know for sure that you want to see a little bit more gameplay, how much models can be viewed! We've decided that is it time to show you a few gameplay mechanics. Today, we’ll show three of them: The first one is the trailer attachment system.
The next footage shows the encounter with the wild animal and their reaction to an oncoming vehicle.
In the end, the behavior of a truck and trailer suspension on the forest road.
