And I'm back again with some more spicy news regarding Gas Station Simulator - Tidal Wave DLC. Honestly, the excitement is slowly getting off the charts, and I cannot wait to see you guys delving into the tropical paradise and running your gas station empire over there.



[h2]Frequently asked questions regarding the DLC🤔[/h2]

As we've scanned over your comments, we've realized that there are a couple of those that get repeated regularly, so I thought that there was no better occasion to answer them all than in this announcement.

[h3]Does Airstrip DLC work with Tidal Wave DLC?✈️[/h3]

Unfortunately, no. Tidal Wave DLC is a separate map; hence, it has its own challenges, mechanics, and quests that you need to complete. As much as I like the idea of Airstrip DLC working together with the Tidal Wave (like, idk – airplanes coming to your tropical station, so you could buy some weird goods in exchange for coconuts, maybe?) but for now it's impossible. The good news is – I have that in my backlog, so as soon as we hear more feedback from the players, we'll try to assess whether it's gonna be possible.

[h3]What about the achievements?🎯[/h3]

Gas Station Simulator – Tidal Wave DLC will have its own achievements. As much as I would love to please everybody out there, I understand that it's not possible, but since it's a DLC set on a separate map adding the achievements that fit the style of the DLC was a crucial thing for us.

[h3]How do I access the DLC?💻[/h3]

Gas Station Simulator - Tidal Wave DLC takes place on a different map. Thus, in order to access it you're gonna need to click "Start New Game" and then click on a Tidal Wave DLC. Your main goal is simple – build your thriving gas station empire from the scratch while keeping the volcano god at bay. Oh...And of course – shooting the shark with the hand cannon.

[h2]Join us on Live Stream👀[/h2]

We're slowly coming to the end of this preview, but just before it ends I'd like to invite everyone to our streams. The first one will take place on Steam at 4pm CET and we will answer your questions live, while the second broadcast will take place on our official Twitch channel. The whole thing will start around 6pm CET, so mark those dates in your calendars. We'll be talking about everything related to the gas station, so don't hesitate to ask us any questions 😉 .
