Gas Station Simulator

The long-awaited update is coming next week! 🎉

Hey, Gas Jockeys! â›˝



As many of you know, we've decided to delay our upcoming Revamp Update some time ago. For those of you who haven’t seen the announcement and would like to check for instance the reasoning behind it, feel free to click this link.

As you know, we didn’t want to give you any specific dates until the update will be as error free as possible and we will be happy with the overall quality of the update. Fortunately, that time has finally come and you won’t have to wait much longer.

I’m thrilled to announce that the Revamp Update will be available on November 27th, 2024. So if you have a friend who would like to delve into Route 66 and kick Dennis’ fleshy part of his body that he sits on, then make sure to spread the news

For now I don’t want to spoil much details (that will have to wait until November 27th), but I would like to use this occasion to invite you for our live stream that will take place on November 27th, at 6 pm CET.



We will be going over the Revamp Update, answering your questions (regarding consoles as well), and simply have fun. Make sure to head over our official twitch.tv channel and I hope to see as many of you as possible. Check this handy graphic for more information.

We will see and hear from each other next Wednesday! Until next devlog.

Revamp Update is being delayed🥹

Hey, Gas Jockeys! â›˝



I know many of you have been eagerly counting down the days for our next big update, originally scheduled for release on November 7th. I’m really thrilled to see such from your side and that is something that pushes us forward. However, we want to make sure that every single update that we release to you is as error free as possible while meeting your expectations. That said, after careful consideration, we’ve decided to push the release date a little bit further.



As I promised recently, there won’t be any empty words, so I wanted to give you some information about the current situation with the upcoming update. In fact, the update is almost ready, and we’re excited about the new content and improvements that are coming your way. However, as it stands, there are still a few rough edges and some final tweaks that need to be polished to deliver the experience you deserve. We want to ensure this update is as smooth, fun, and bug-free as possible and this additional time should give us exactly that.



As a consolation prize I have some screenshots from our upcoming update which should give you a glimpse into what’s coming to Gas Station Sim. Let me know in the comments down below what you think.




Stay up-to-date đź“°



And that’s gonna be it for today’s announcement. I understand that there will be many of you who feel disappointed with the delay, so don’t hesitate to let me know that in the comments down below. Have a wonderful rest of your day and we will see each other in the next devlog.

On Monday we shared with you the updated Road Map for Gas Station Simulator (for those of you who somehow missed this announcement, I highly suggest you check it out by clicking this link). Furthermore, we’ve even spilled the tea by stating that the first update is just around the corner. In fact you can expect it going live this Thursday, November 7th with us streaming the update live on our official twitch.tv channel and on Steam.

The stream will start at 6 pm CET and will last around an hour or so. Check this handy graphic below for more clear information 👇



During the stream we’ll go through dozens of changes that made its way to the game and we will discuss the future of our beloved Gas Station Simulator.

Also, you can expect the whole announcement focusing on the update on November 7th, with some fancy before/after videos, so stay tuned for that one as well.

Before we finish, I’d like to let you know that our recently released DLC for Gas Station Sim – Car Junkyard – is currently 20% off. If you still haven’t tried that one yet, now it’s the perfect time to grab it, especially with the update coming in hot.

Let's talk about Gas Station Simulator's Road Mapđź‘€

Hey, Gas Jockeys! â›˝



Throughout the year and many Steam announcements that we’ve posted so far, we couldn’t emphasize enough the importance of your support and feedback. Since the Gas Station Simulator launch day we’ve always had in mind the invaluable community that is willing to help us shape the future of not only GSS, but also our other projects including Road Diner Simulator or Motel Simulator.

We did our best to bring you much anticipated updates including Employee Update or Economy Update but also some new content in the form of the DLCs. However, we’re still fully aware that there are many features that haven’t found their way into Route 66 yet (yes, I’m talking about restocking shelves or gamepad support for example). But, things are about to change – and I totally understand that rather than empty words you folks would rather see some action going on. And that’s exactly what we plan to do till the end of the year starting with the long-awaited Road Map 🗺️



Road Map till the end of 2024đź‘€



Before I’m gonna show you the road map there are two things that need further clarification. Firstly, we didn’t include any specific dates in the Road Map simply because we don’t want to give you any promises and later on, due to some unexpected issues, don’t stick to it. In general the plan is simple: As soon as we’re happy with the quality we’ve achieved, we’ll update the game with new features and obviously will share this information with awesome folks from our community. We’ve learnt our lesson from our previous updates and announcements, and we want to avoid any form of disappointment from your side.

Secondly, you might be thinking – why is the Road Map till the end of 2024 only? Well, that’s a good question and here I come to give you an answer. In general we have a plethora of things in our mind that we want to bring to table. The hardest part in fact is to prioritize them and put them into the schedule, so everyone knows what goes where and why. I’ll make sure to keep you updated and as soon as we’re ready to reveal what’s coming in 2025, we’ll definitely do that. Now, finally it’s time to share with you our brand-new Road Map. Enjoy and let me know what you think in the comments down below 👇



First update is just around the corner 🤫



Before we finish this announcement, let’s talk a little bit about the upcoming update, shall we? First and foremost, the production team has done a tremendous amount of work when it comes to improving both visuals and performance of Gas Station Simulator which is something that have been heavily requested. All I can say right now is that you can expect a new level of graphic scalability that basically is aimed for PCs with integrated GPU. Obviously, that’s just one thing among many, but more on that in the future announcements. Apart from that, you can expect some balance to Car Junkyard DLC (mostly regarding contracts), and much, much more, so stay tuned!

Stay up-to-date đź“°



Phew…We’ve made it till the end. I hope you’ve enjoyed this little sneak peak of what’s coming to the Gas Station Simulator. It brings me joy when I think about how many things we’ve covered today, yet there is still so much more to talk about. Rest assured, we’re still looking at your comments, suggestions, and ideas, so don’t hesitate and keep those comments coming. Together we will shape the better future for the Gas Station Simulator. Have a wonderful rest of your day, play some fantastic games, and we will see each other in the next devlog.

P.S Our friends over Codebusters have just released a fresh Family Land: Prologue Steam page, so I though it would be worth to share this information with you. Any farmers wanna be here?
