Gas Station Simulator News

All those who had the opportunity to play Early Days, the prologue to Gas Station Simulator probably met a little guy named Dennis...

The amount of venom poured out on this defenceless young man, who only wanted to share his passion for art on the walls of your gas station, exceeded any expectations, and at the same time provided lots of memorable moments.
Thanks to the wonderful voice actress Yenni Ann, who voiced Dennis and a few other characters in our game, we can share with you some of our favorite player comments about Dennis.

Join us over the weekend as we play the prologue to Gas Station Simulator. We will try to cover all the interesting topics and address some of the feedback we received. While we will be streaming the prologue, a lot of the information applies also to the full game, as the prologue closely resembled the beginning of the full game.

We will also have the devs follow the live-chat and try to answer all of your questions.
This time we will also put what we recorded on repeat, so you can watch it at your leisure over the weekend while we keep the chat live and pop in frequently over the entire time.

Head over to the Early Days store page and get your hands on the freshly released prologue to Gas Station Simulator. You can also join our live stream and watch the devs play it for you.

On 28th April, you will be able to play the free prologue to Gas Station Simulator.
Unlike the demo, where we threw you into the middle of the game to experience a well-rounded set of game mechanics, the prologue is focusing on showing you the early part of the game, hence the name Early Days.

The prologue in many areas resembles the start of the full game where you get a gas station in shambles, have to clean up the area, restore the gas station and equip it and then proceed to taking care of the surroundings. While the game’s demo is more focused on running the gas station, the prologue is about establishing it in the first place.

Being a different experience in terms of gameplay and content, the prologue also features improvements, further optimizations and the new UI we are working on for the full game.

If you enjoyed the demo, you really should have a look at the prologue. Besides, it has a bobblehead figure mounted on the dashboard of a muscle car, so if that isn’t reason enough to love it right away, what is?

Giving the rise to the name “Dirty Thirties”, the Dust Bowl was a region of the Southern Plains of the USA that suffered severe droughts and dust storms for nearly the entire decade at the end of the last millennium. While rains have returned to the region and nature managed to mend, a catastrophe of such magnitude mustn't just be forgotten.



Which is why each and every glance at your station’s name will serve as a reminder never to underestimate the dryness nature is capable of. One man can’t fight against the storm - not unprepared, at least. Dust storms have pelletized the area and the sand mounds that build up require prompt removal. Just expect nature to throw a curveball your way once in a while.



An excavator is going to be a big help in this endeavor.
The excavator is a heavy piece of machinery and goes through large amounts of fuel in no time. Not to mention the excavator is hardly automated - you’re going to be sitting in the driver’s seat after all. Without skill and a good eye, you will find your time spent behind the steering wheel much longer than you’d expect, and in turn you’ll see all that precious fuel as nothing but fumes released into the air behind you.

The excavator weighs a ton, and you know what happens when a mountain on wheels hits anything in its path. Be very, very careful maneuvering so as to not demolish your customers’ vehicles, not to mention the customers themselves. You’ll also need a lot of space to stash the machinery when not in use, so park responsibly. And above all else, please, do NOT leave the excavator in the middle of the road. The local sheriff still laments having to drive all the way here to tow the previous one away to this day.
