Dear friends who are keeping an eye on Dino Ramen Expres,
It's finally here—our first public Demo is live, just in time for the Steam Next Fest! 🎉
We’re so excited to officially show you a sneak peek of what we’ve been working on!
At the start, we envisioned a wild adventure in an open world, delivering delicious ramen to different universes! And as we fleshed it out, we added some of our favorite themes—shooting, wild driving, multiplayer co-op, and more.
But, as with any game development journey, we’ve hit some bumps along the way. Thankfully, your support has been a huge help! Before the Chinese New Year, we ran a small test, and we received so much encouragement and valuable feedback. This gave us the confidence to participate in the Steam Next Fest!
That said, the current version is still very much a work in progress. You might encounter some “surprises”: lag, clipping issues, random bugs, or maybe even some strange glitches. But don’t worry—we’re ready to tackle them, and we need your help to spot these little problems! Whether it's stuttering, falling through the world, or something that doesn’t quite make sense, please let us know!
Every piece of feedback is precious, and we’ll jump on it ASAP! m(_ _)m
[h2]And we’d also love to hear about your experience playing! It’ll be invaluable for us as we move forward![/h2]
For this Demo, we’ve included
5 prologue chapters,
a multiplayer mode (PVP and PVE, with 13 different maps), and
40+ weapons for you to try out.
The chance to let everyone try out the game is super important to us, so we’ve packed in as many different features as we could. That said, the gameplay might not be super deep yet, but
we hope it’ll give you a feel for the different modes and mechanics. We’d love to hear what you think!Here’s a breakdown of the Demo content:
- Prologue:The 5 prologue chapters set up the game’s story and give you a chance to familiarize yourself with basic controls (like changing outfits, unlocking things, and getting a feel for different weapons).
- 40+ Weapons to Try:We’ve packed 40+ weapons into the Demo, and you’ll be able to get your hands on them through various means. Please share your thoughts on how each weapon feels—it’s super important for us!
- Multiplayer Mode:The multiplayer mode is divided into PVE and PVP, each with its own unique maps. We’re giving you 7 PVE maps and 6 PVP maps to check out. Let us know what you think about the designs, style, and scenery!
- Main Island: After finishing the prologue, you’ll be able to explore the main island. You can interact with various elements here. We also wanted to show you some of the island-building gameplay, but we didn’t quite manage to finish it in time, so we’ll update it in the next few days. For now, you can start collecting materials! This part of the Demo will also be updated continuously！
We’re all set to fully support the first public playthrough of the game! We’ll be active in the community, chatting with you about your experiences and feedback. If you run into any issues or bugs, we’ll be there to monitor them and fix them as quickly as we can.

We highly recommend joining the Discord for real-time interaction and report issues with us! We’ll try to reply as quickly as possible![/h2]
Honestly, writing this is making me a little emotional. We’re so eager to connect with all of you, and I just want to say a huge thank you to everyone who’s been supporting us. Every time we hit a rough patch in development, it’s your kind advice and encouragement that gives us the direction and confidence to keep going.
Wishing you the best in becoming a hero—or owning a ramen shop that makes you happy. 🍜💖
