[p][/p][p][/p][h3]🧹 The Demo[/h3][p]As we're very close to release day, the Demo has been taken down off Steam. The full game is a huge leap forward in terms of quality and polish, and I unfortunately haven't had time to make an updated Demo. Your money won't carry over from Demo saves due to progression/economy changes, however your conveyor setup(s) will! The progression will be impacted, but the game will allow you to play with your save file if you wish.[/p][p][/p][hr][/hr][p][/p][p]Really looking forward to everyone being able to play Parcel Simulator in just a few days!

Hey Parcel Inspectors! I'm pleased to finally announce that...

[h3]Parcel Simulator will release on June 20th, at 17:00 UTC / 10:00 PT![/h3]

The release date is finally here - June 20th! Thanks for all the support on the Demo so far! I appreciate all of the bug reports in the Steam Discussions, via the in-game reporting tool and on Discord. I read every single one of them and have been hard at work getting the final build ready for release.

Really looking forward to everyone giving Parcel Simulator a try next month!

Thanks,

Hey Parcel Inspectors!

It's been a busy month for Parcel Simulator, with lots of new features and changes being worked on to get the game closer to release. I'm hoping to have a release date announcement coming very soon. Here's some of the stuff I've been working on:

[h2]📈 The Warehouse Must Expand![/h2]
The non-demo area of the warehouse has been expanded significantly, with many more expansions and lots more verticality for extra large storage racks. More space is something I hear demo players crave, so I've made sure that the full release warehouse has lots of expansions to build your conveyor setups into!



[h2]↗️ Splitter Conveyor[/h2]
The splitter conveyor will allow you to equally split parcels three ways to split up your storage. The splitter always prioritises empty routes, so even if one or more of the routes are full parcels will continue to flow.



[h2]🤑 Conveyor Upgrades[/h2]
The conveyor upgrade system has been implemented to allow you to upgrade existing conveyors to level 2 and level 3, increasing speed and other stats. Scanners can be upgraded to increase their scan speed, and conveyors upgraded to increase their movement speed.



[h2]🔎 Contents Inspection Improvements[/h2]
Further improvements have been made to the contents inspection licence in Parcel Simulator, including some better animations, a larger variety of items, and some QOL changes.



[h2]🔢 Serial Number Improvements[/h2]
To make life easier when checking serial numbers, some invalid serial numbers will now be visually identifiable by looking for codes that are too short, or contain alphabetic characters (A-Z). The handheld serial number scanner has also been improved, to allow back-to-back scanning of packages to check for validity.



[h2]🎨 Conveyor Paint[/h2]
Conveyor belt paint will allow you to paint up to 10 belts per bucket, to make your conveyors more visually distinct from one another. 🔴🟠🟡🟢🔵🟣



[h2]💾 Autosave[/h2]
Autosave will be enabled by default, ensuring that your game saves as you play. You'll be able to disable this in the settings, though, if you want to ensure that Alt+F4 doesn't save your progress.

Also, thank you all for posting in the Steam discussions, reporting bugs using the in-game reporting tool (F7), and for posting on Discord - I make sure I try to read every single bug report!

Thanks all again for the support!

Hey Parcel Inspectors!

First of all, thank you so much for the support on the Demo! Since releasing 6 weeks ago, the Demo has been played by over 30,000 unique players and the game has reached over 28,000 wishlists! The support is much appreciated, and I can't wait for you all to play the full release soon. Here is some of the stuff I've been working on for Parcel Simulator:

[h2]🏗️ Larger Storage[/h2]
Three tiers of storage will be available: small, medium and large. This is a preview of one of the larger storage racks, allowing you to scale your storage and operations vertically.



[h2]🎛️ Key Remapping[/h2]
This has been a highly requested feature, for those using international keyboard layouts or simply wanting to modify the default controls. You'll be able to rebind almost all of the available controls in the game, including movement controls, pickup/placement controls, and controls at the inspection table.



[h2]🔎 Contents Inspection[/h2]
Still a work-in-progress, but this is a sneak-peek at part of the contents inspection system coming to Parcel Simulator. Inspecting contents is something that will be required for a small portion (around 5-10%) of parcels, indicated by a large red sticker on the parcels. You'll have to check packages for prohibited items, and approve/deny accordingly.



[h2]🏪 Repack Items into Boxes[/h2]
Another highly requested feature is the ability to repack items back into their shop delivery boxes. This is a nice QOL change which will allow you to rework your conveyor setups more easily as you'll be able to pickup 4 conveyor boxes at once with the pallet. Further down the line, this will also tie into the ability to resell items back to the shop, at a discounted rate, so that you can do something with no longer useful items.



[h2]⚙️ Automatic Exports Upgrade[/h2]
One of the new upgrades that will be available in the full release is "Automatic Exports". As the name suggests, this will automatically submit export doors when they reach maximum capacity, meaning you won't have to click the export button to "unclog" stuck conveyor systems.



[h2]🐛 Bug Fixes and Tweaks[/h2]
Thank you all for reporting bugs and issues via the F7 in-game reporting tool, and via Discord. As with every update, lots of bugs have been fixed and tweaks have been made to make Parcel Simulator an even more polished experience.


Once again, thank you for the support!
