Let's talk about the employee update... Also, we're doing a GIVEAWAY!
Hey, Gas Jockeys!
First things first, so before we jump into the employee update, we just wanted to thank you for all of your comments regarding the whole thing. It's really heartwarming to see how invested in GSS you guys are.
Without further ado - let's go!
What's gonna change with the Employee Update? 🔥
In this devlog we'll briefly talk about everything that's going to change - we'll get into all the details in the future posts tho, so stay tuned!
With this update, we've gathered your feedback from the past months, and decided to give you what you guys want. The whole thing can be divided into three major changes - new employees, employee scheduling system, and tools migration.
New Employees 🧔
We decided that having only 6 employee options to choose from might be not enough if you're building your own Gas Empire. That's why we're adding two potential employees to join your crew. How cool is that? 😎
Employee Scheduling System 📆
It's a huge feature that will help you manage your gas station, increasing the efficency of your actions. You will be able to give specific tasks to different employees, so they can help you with running your station.
Spoiler: There's a task priority list as well - you can task your crew with multiple things that will be taken care of one after another!
Tools Migration & Changes 🛠️
What does "Tools Migration" mean? Well - we're not gonna reveal it just yet. It would take away from the final surprise, so you're gonna have to wait a bit more for that. Can you guess tho?
Also, the Vacuum tool will get an upgrade, so it doesn't leave thrash bags for you to take out. It's like having a mini black hole for you to clean up - how cool is that?
🎉Giveaway is happening! 🎉
We like to keep things intense in the second part of the year - there's a lot more to come, but in the meantime, we've prepared a quick giveaway for you!
You have time till the end of September 4th to win a steam giftcard!
Let me start by saying that if you follow us on our social media platforms such as [Twitter (or x.com)], [Facebook] or [Instagram], you've already seen this teaser. Not to be rude or anything, but you should definitely click on those links and become a member of our community. ːsteammockingː
You can be sure that we're listening to your feedback - it's impossible to make things happen with a snap of a finger, but we're doing our best to keep the game nice and updated for you. We're here if you want to share any feedback you might have - it doesn't matter if it's positive or negative.
You guys have been asking for some changes regarding the employee system, and we're here to deliver. We're not telling you about it yet. It wouldn't be fun to just let you know what are the improvements, would it? ːsteamboredː
Stay tuned, because in a couple of days we'll share everything with you!
All the best, Roumyan, the Head of Social Media at DRAGO entertainment
P.S. There's more exciting stuff to come after the employee update. Do you guys want a roadmap?
The Chronicles of Dennis - From Gas Station Simulator to Food Truck Simulator
Hey, Gas Jockeys!
In our last short announcement, we’ve introduced to you some of our other titles that we currently have in our portfolio. Today, however, we’d like to focus a little bit more on one peculiar character that everyone loves (right?) – Dennis. We'll dive into the intriguing background story, so buckle up, grab your favorite snack, and embark with us on a journey as we explore the transformation of Dennis from a young troublemaker at the gas station to an entrepreneur with his own food truck business in the city.
The Mischievous Young Boy at the Gas Station
In the early days of Gas Station Simulator, players encountered a mischievous young boy named Dennis. He was a clever troublemaker who enjoyed playing pranks on the station's staff. Denis always had a way of making the gas station a chaotic but fun place. Well… Depending on what fun means to you, of course.
A Farewell to the Gas Station
After spending a significant amount of time at the station, Dennis realized that he wanted something more out of life. The gas station environment, while familiar and comfortable, couldn't quench his thirst for new experiences and opportunities. He wanted to explore the bustling city, broaden his horizons, and seek out a different path.
An Ambitious Venture
Determined to find his own place in the world, Dennis bid farewell to the gas station and embarked on a thrilling adventure to the city. Leaving behind memories of his playful shenanigans, he sought to establish himself in a brand new career.
Food Truck Aspiration
In the heart of the city, Dennis stumbled upon a vibrant street food scene. The tantalizing aromas, the lively atmosphere, and the creative freedom of food trucks ignited a spark within him. He knew he had found his calling. He answered a call from inside and decided to start his own food truck business.
Food Truck Simulator
In Food Truck Simulator, players now encounter an older, more mature Dennis, the proud owner of his thriving Food Truck business. He has built a reputation for serving delectable and innovative dishes from his food truck, capturing the hearts and taste buds of the city's food enthusiasts.
A Beloved Figure
As players progress through the game, they encounter Dennis a couple of times. However, he is different right now – rather than being a pain in the ass, he’s now your rival in the food truck underworld. He even decided to burn your Food Truck in order to achieve his goals of becoming more popular than you.
Food Truck Simulator update
With that story finished, we right now would like to let you know about update for the Food Truck Simulator. We’ve managed to adjust a sushi mini-game, so for those of you who found it a little bit challenging it should be way easier right now to complete it. Additionally, sushi minigame buttons are now rebindable. THAT'S RIGHT! That means you should be able to play it on any keyboard you want!
For those who aren't familiar, Gas Station Simulator is a simulation game that lets you build and manage your own gas station business. However, the Airstrip DLC introduces a whole new level of gameplay, taking the experience to new heights — literally!
Setting the Stage
With the Airstrip DLC, players have the opportunity to expand their gas station empire by adding an airstrip to their property. This means you're not just a gas station owner anymore; you're also responsible for managing the operations of a small regional airport. The DLC brings a unique blend of tasks, challenges, and rewards that will keep players engaged for hours.
If you’re a huge fan of airplanes, you might be interested in our two other titles that have in our portfolio – Airport Contraband and American Airport Simulator. As you might have noticed already, Airport Contraband took a little different approach than it was initially planned, but more on that can be found on the brand-new Airport Contraband’s Steam page.
American Airport Simulator is an engaging and immersive simulation game that puts you in control of managing a bustling airport in the United States. The game offers an authentic experience that challenges players to handle the complexities of running a modern airport efficiently and effectively.
As the airport manager, you'll take charge of every aspect of airport operations, from designing the layout to overseeing day-to-day activities. The game provides a realistic and detailed environment, featuring a variety of aircraft, buildings, and ground vehicles.
And guess what? We also have some fresh screenshots to share with ya! If you wanna check them, don’t hesitate and go to the American Airport Simulator’s Steam page.
Summer has hit us with its full glory, but fortunately it didn't stop us from working hard on delivering another chunky update for Gas Station Simulator as well as Airstrip DLC. As always, we'd like to hear your thoughts regarding the update, so make sure to leave your answers in the comment section below.
Before we delve into the fixes, we'd like to announce that currently we're running a giveaway which can be accessed by clicking this link or the image below. Go and check it for yourself, folks!

There is no other explanation to come up with a game that bonkers, there really isn’t… Just have a look:
