Without A Hitch News

WITHOUT A HITCH Playtest #2 is LIVE and FREE to all players until [DATE / TIME]!

Assemble your convoy of friends on Steam (or using Crossplay), pick up the package, and navigate chaotic landscapes to make your deliveries across daytime and nighttime maps!

We've been hard at work since the first playtest, fixing issues and updating the game based on player feedback. This new playtest includes:

• Two New Delivery Missions: One daylight mission and one nighttime mission.
  
• Two New Maps: Each delivery mission features a new procedurally-generated map. These maps are the same for all players during the playtest, while the final game will feature procedurally-generated maps for each delivery mission.
  
• Home Base: New introduction experience via a new home base.
  
• Vehicle Upgrades: New upgrades can be purchased.
  
• There's more, but we'll let you discover that for yourselves!

Please remember to complete the player survey after the playtest so we can hear what you think. Players who complete the survey will receive a code to unlock the exclusive Confetti Cannon cosmetic when WITHOUT A HITCH releases!
