2 years without update

[smobydick]

I wanted to buy this early access game but 2 years without update, wtf ? Was this a cash grab and run ?

This is one of those early access games that have early access beta updates. Game is poorly written and I only assume the dev is getting tired of untangling it. There are signs of life but none are very promising. But who knows, we may see a full update one of these days.

Oh my... Thank you

It's a meme game that's a blast for ~20 hours with friends. Which isn't saying a whole lot, because most things are fun with friends, but with the current sale it's on it's worth the money. Last update was Nov. 2024 so not dead exactly. If you don't have people to play with I wouldn't recommend it right now.

If you feel like the game is tiring I highly suggest joining the discord and downloading the mod loader since it adds way more content to the game and makes it 5x better in my opinion

Thank you, I don't have friend to play with. Beside that, steam new functionnality warns people if an early access game seems to be dead. Which is the case here I think.

The beta was getting regular beta updates prior to Genesz moving house, it's certainly not dead. Steam's disclaimer is misleading as it only looks at the main game branch, not any beta branches.

I will say this; yes it is abandoned, but f is it fun. I got it for 3.99 on sale and have already gotten my money's worth. wait for a sale and go for it. (i am playing single player)

[KingGhidorahzzz]

fr when people say "oh but it has a beta branch that's updated" that's not a official update obviously

[Inazuma]

There's an update from November 2024....that's only like 4 months ago

100H ingame
A real sense of immensity, an endless road with surprises at every stop.
Numerous vehicles and various DIY projects to keep you going.
Beware of accidents, especially if you're about to fall asleep.
One of those rare little games with unique gameplay.

i've seen a screenshot or a short somewhere a while ago of someone finding a broken-down bus.
my goal in this game is to find one and see if i can get it to work. and it's zen, basically a bigger version of jalopy, calmer than pacific drive, and still has survival mechanics.

the dev is currently basically rewriting the entire game from scratch, because like every self-taught dev, he has made some big coding errors in the past and is now better equipped to make better and more robust code.

the multiplayer works fine, but in the end it is a specific type of game for a specific type of person, and if you think that what is currently in the game isn't good enough, then simply don't buy it.

The boys and I have found a couple buses, in various states of brokenness. We've tried a few different things, but have never gotten it to work. It might be a fuel mix issue? Some vehicles require a percentage of oil (like 2%) with gasoline. It might be a diesel vehicle as well. If you do it, make sure to bring all 3 + water in case coolant is empty

One thing that never helps is when a dev decides it's a good idea to work on multiplayer before the actual game is finished, so half the time is spent working on the game, and the other half is spent fixing the glitches it causes in multiplayer and rewriting code
