And one more thing ā many of you have been asking if youāll need to cross the road constantly in order to check your airstrip or gas station.

And last but not least ā weāre preparing a pre-recorded stream for you, guys, and we need your help! If you have any questions to the dev team about the design, development process, game direction, or maybe even future plans, make sure to leave them in the comment section below or you can freely jump to our discord server and leave your answers over there. Weāll try to address as many of them as possible on our stream.
Airstrip, Road Diner & Motel? Yes!
April, 26th is the day Gas Station Simulatorās Airstrip DLC will arrive. This makes for a great opportunity to let you in on some of our plans regarding DLCs and what role they will play in the grand scheme of things, namely the āgas station universeā consisting of the games Gas Station Simulator, Road Diner and Motel Simulator. We covered how these games will work together and influence each other in the past, but we plan to extend that concept to the DLC as well.
So letās take our Airstrip DLC as an example here. The DLC features Joe, a new character that the DLC kinda evolves around. The first connection between Airstrip and the Road Diner will be a friend of Joeās who will hook into Joeās story and background. He will be a special guests at the Road Diner and later at the Motel, too.
While Joe is the prominent character in the DLC, there are other pilots from all over the world. Pilots that can provide you, among other things, with goods unique to their country or state for your gas station. But those goods will also be useful in the future at the Road Diner and the Motel, which is another example how a DLC will connect to these games.
For the pilots we have even bigger plans, especially for the Motel Simulator. Once we release the game, the Airstrip DLC will get an update that adds the necessary systems from the Motel to these pilots so some of them can become guests at motel. It only makes sense that they need a good nightās sleep before continuing their journey.
Until Road Diner and Motel arrive, we will for sure work out more ways how the expand upon DLCs to make them relevant in the other games, too. Now, they wonāt be required. It just about giving some additional bonuses or content if you own them.
In case you missed it in previous announcements, along-side continued development for Gas Station Simulator we are also working on two games that will complement your gas station: Road Diner and Motel. While both are separate games, they are connected with each other as well as Gas Station Simulator. Which makes a lot sense, since they are located close-by.
The road diner is just across the highway and the motel will be close to the side of the gas station. When you own any combinations of those games, they will work together, influence each other, provide bonuses and allow you various interesting interactions. This also means that a lot of things we are creating for the road diner and/or the motel will also be adding additional content and features to Gas Station Simulator in order to make this happen.
Gas Station Simulator will be a part of a Routastic Event
And last but not least ā Routastic Event is getting closer and closer, and we've already started a series of giveaways on our social media channels. The event will feature some huge discounts, great bundles, showcase of our & friendly developers' games, and much, much more, so you'd better mark those dates in calendars.

Airstrip DLC development update #6 ā Trading #2š¤
Hey, Gas Jockeys! ā½
Welcome to another Gas Station Simulator - Airstrip DLC development update. In the last episode, weāve shared some information regarding the minigames, so if youāve somehow managed to miss it, you can still check it out here.
Today weāll delve into the trading topic again, because there are still some things that are worth mentioning here. Also, make sure to read till the end, since we might have some surprises for you. Without further ado, letās get started
Plane arrival āļø
As you might have noticed in our first trading-related devlog, there is a black screen available for you in the barn. There youāll be able to check the estimated time of arrival, and what kind of plane will be arriving at your airstrip.
The estimated time of arrival (ETA) depends on many different factors. Sometimes flights might be canceled due to some unexpected circumstances. Sometimes as a result of a sandstorm, theyāll be delayed or wonāt be able to take off from your airstrip. There will be also some cases in which you might want to delay some of them. This will push them to the bottom of the queue.
As the time of arrival is getting closer and closer, youāll be able to notice much more details i.e. what kind of items you can sell or buy.
As you probably already know, as soon as the plane lands at your airport, youāll be able to interact with the pilot and trade for some valuable goods or money. Each plane has a different set of items that also consist of country-related goods such as decorations. Check some of them below, and make sure to let us know what you think of them in the comments.
Easter wishes š° š„
As this devlog is live just before Easter, weād like to take this as an opportunity to send some wishes from the whole DRAGO entertainment team! Make sure to charge up your batteries and spend some time with your loved ones ā¤ļøāš„ Happy Easter, folks!

Here your job is going to be turning an old military airfield into a private one and manage it, a bit like Gas Station Simulator, but on an airport:
Airstrip DLC development update #5 ā Minigamesš®
Hey, Gas Jockeys! ā½
Welcome back to another development update. In the last one, weāve shed some light on the trading system, so if thatās your cup of tea, you should definitely check it. In todayās development update, weāll show you some new minigames coming with the DLC. Without further ado, letās get the party startedš„
As weāve already explained in the previous devlogs, in some cases youāll need to help Joe fix his plane. To do that, youāll need to order a tape which is in the same category as car parts. As soon as you have some at your disposal, youāre ready to repair the holes in the Joe's plane.
Marshall MinigamešØāāļø
Every pilot needs proper guidance to take off carefully. In Gas Station Simulator - Airstrip DLC thatās a similar case. To do that, weāve prepared a new item called Marshaling wands. This will allow you to guide Joe safely by using your mouse so he can adjust the position of his plane. As soon as he reaches the perfect spot, heāll take off freely. Please keep in mind that these are still work-in-progress stuff. The team is working hard on the polishing part right now. Everything you saw already might differ in some way.
Other activitiesš§°
Apart from the mechanics that weāve just described, thereāll be some more actions that youāll be able to do (although the dirty ones). These include cleaning up the barn, fueling planes, or running a successful trading business.
Stay up-to-dateš°
And that would be it for today, fellow jockeys! Weāre super excited to tell you that our upcoming DLC will be available this month already! š„Weāre preparing some great surprises for you, so make sure to check our social media channels on a daily basis.
We're also curios to see your comments regarding the new minigames, so make sure to write them down in the comment section below. Last but not least, if you want to stay updated, follow us on social media, and if you havenāt done it yet, consider adding Airstrip DLC to your wishlist.

Gas Station Simulator ā Airstrip DLC will arrive to you a little bit sooner!š„
Hey, Gas Jockeys! ā½
We're thrilled to announce that Gas Station Simulator - Airstrip DLC will fly into your hands on April 26th, 2023!

Airstrip DLC development update #4 ā Tradingš¤
Hey, Gas Jockeys! ā½
Welcome to another devlog in which weāll do our best to familiarize you with our upcoming DLC. Weāve already shared some details about Joe and Towy, so if you missed the previous devlogs, you can check them here (Meet Joe & Say hi to Towy). Today weāre going to shed some light on the trading aspect that is coming with the Gas Station Simulator - Airstrip DLC. Without further ado, letās get some trades going!
Trading System š°
Occasionally, your Airstrip will have the unique opportunity to welcome country-related planes. Each plane will have a different set of products at its disposal, so you'll be able to get some unique items each time they arrive at your airstrip. To make a deal, youāll need to make sure that your stock is full of high-quality items, as this will boost your chances for a successful trade.
Your chances of success are indicated by a circle that, depending on the item's quality and the amount you want to sell or buy, will change accordingly. Itās totally up to you whether you want to try your luck or not ā the rewards might be worth a try, but you have to keep in mind that the pilot might not want to give you a second chance. However, some tricks will aid you or make your life a little harder as you progress through the game.
Boosts š & Impedimentsš
Boosts are randomly generated events that create additional opportunities for the player to get a particular item at a preferential price. They can appear both on the players' and pilots' sides, but there is no possibility that they will show up on both sides at the same time. There is only one exception to that rule, but weāll leave it for you to discover it when the Gas Station Simulator - Airstrip DLC releases on April 28th, 2023!
On the other hand, youāll also encounter some obstacles along your trading journey. While boosts will significantly help you, the impediments are designed to make the gameplay more challenging.
Card System š³
To make trading a little easier, weāre adding some active cards that youāll be able to get if you complete a specific set of tasks in the game. These might be upgrading a particular building or completing a certain amount of trades in the game. There will be four of them for you to collect, and you can already check what their purpose is.
COGENCY
EXTRA TIME
POWER OF CALM
EXPRESSION OF GRATITUDE
Stay up-to-date
And weāve come to an end, fellow jockeys! We hope that youāve enjoyed our little trading showcase, and weāll be glad to see your opinions, suggestions, and ideas in the comment section below. Please, keep in mind that everything youāve seen is still work-in-progress stuff, and weāre doing our best to polish it as much as we can till the release. If you donāt want to miss any news regarding the game or DLC, consider adding it to your wishlist.
