Some tips and Re: Feedback this far
1. Keep moving and know your location!
Learn the ins and outs of Martin's Valley stage! There is lots of shortcuts like jumps and some narrow paths to use. When you pick up people, they say the destination, and after that destination can be read from the HUD top left. Trying to memorize where the general locations are can be very handy. Compass shows the straight with green arrow, but it is up to you to figure out the best route there!
2. Upgrade your car to fit your play style!
Upgrades are very important. Maybe you want to play more like a tank and upgrade your weapons and armor, or maybe you want to have maximum boost ability to get out fast from tight spots. Keep in mind that every car also drives bit differently and some of them can be upgraded more on some areas than others.
3. Try to do long runs!
Every job you complete adds to a multiplier for your current round. 1-2 jobs done wont make much money, but getting around 10 jobs can make up to 15-16k $. This is something we will tweak, but generally longer the run, more money for you!

Thank you also everybody for all the feedback. We have been fixing issues with aiming, menus and other things you have said. Keep em coming. Our aim is to update the game at some point this week, based on your feedback, some things we have noted ourselves and also adding more game content.
Some teaser regarding new cars can be found on our Twitter, bit more agile, but still durable smaller van will probably be in your hands later this week.
