Devlog #13

Hello everyone! Welcome to our 13th Devlog.

We have been super busy here at Nano Games, working on many new things for you to enjoy, including new features, content, more polished gameplay, and an overall better experience.

Please join our Discord or the Steam Forums if you have any feedback, suggestions or don't want to miss out on our critical announcements.

Without further ado, let's get started:

[h2]More Content[/h2]

We want to create an experience that resembles real life as much as possible. Therefore, we have been working extra hard to bring FOURTEEN new obstacle courses for you to bring your inner truck-driving skills out! These will include two championships and four events based on official Europa Truck Trial locations.
Do you have what it takes to conquer these new challenges?
Many trucks compete in the Europa Truck Trials; we are delighted to share that three new truck models, featuring Unimog, Steyr, and Mercedes-Benz, will be joining the existing Unimog and MAN trucks in the garage.
Prepare your gears! Championship, event, and truck selection menus are now available for a personalized experience.

Another thing we wanted to focus on for this update was SFX. The ones we had before did not match authentic truck engine sounds and were long due for an update. That's why we took a trip to the truck trials in Gröningen in Saxony-Anhalt, Germany, exclusively to record the engine sounds for this update!

[h2]Gameplay Refinements[/h2]

We took our previous scoring system directly from the real-life championship rules, where you lose points for errors made. After many hours of playtesting and trying to make this experience as fun as possible, we have decided to update the scoring system. You will now be able to earn points! Changing the scoring system was a hard decision as we wanted to keep the experience as close to real life as possible, but we are confident that doing this will bring a much better experience to our players.
Enhanced truck physics and parameters to be closer to what you would see in real-life events and competitions.

Player career menus will bring a whole new level of customization to your experience! For example, you will now be able to select which championships or events to play. We have also included an option to choose, upgrade, and purchase new trucks. And to top it off, we have also included a way of viewing your trophies and leaderboards!
Revamped HUD to make everything look better and much more appealing.
Enhanced truck physics and parameters to be closer to what you would see in real-life events and competitions.
Professional Europe Truck Trail drivers need to beat several obstacles during their events; since we want you to have the same experience, we have added new interactive obstacles, including various ramps and walls.
