Junkyard Simulator News

Info

Dear Players,
We're back with some new info about Junkyard Simulator :).



Some of you had an opportunity to play the prologue and share your thoughts about the game. We got information about what's missing, and what you would like to change. Your feedback was very constructive and contributing. After internal discussion, we decided to postpone the premiere of the Junkyard Simulator and bring to you the game you'll love to play.





Pickup - the "JunkyFlyingDodge" successor is one of the brand new forms of transport on the ground. We fixed the driving experience heeding your comments about bald tires and car slipping. Now the truck drives reliable, and it doesn't fly (even after upgrades ;).



You were asking about the possibility of color-changing, polishing owned vehicles, or even upgrading the size of your truck bed with which you'll be able to load and carry more items. Yep, we can confirm that upgrading options are available in the game!



We also added a texture emissive into the Junkyard Simulator. A small detail but you've requested it and we thought it's nice to inform you that even a small detail like this one is very important for us.





We'll do our best to add the truck driver before releasing Early Access or shortly after. We share your opinion that he's missing in the truck during the drive.





January looks very intensive. For now, we can promise we're going to launch CLOSED BETA. We'll share more details with incoming updates.



In the next days, we fire up more information about new mechanics that we've included in the Junkyard Simulator.



Take care,
Rebelia Games

Early Access Update

Greeting, players!

You often ask about the full realease of Junkyard Simulator.

At the moment we are doing our best to fix the prologue, but all the current fixes will also be implemented in the full release. We believe that after fixing all the technical problems with the prologue we will be able to turn our attention to the Junkyard Simulator Early Access release.

Be aware that the prologue offers just a small fraction of what we planned for the full release. We can't wait to share our game with You.

We appretiate and take note of all the suggestions and reported issues.

Regards,
Junkyard Team

[h3]What’s inside the prologue? [/h3]

You’re starting with an exploratory task - you need to find a few items and transport them to the arranged place. Doing it, you’ll travel by a junkman’s truck a very long way which is in fact…a small piece of the Junkyard Simulator world.





After hitting the target you’ll put on salesman shoes to exchange a few junks for the highest possible price. It’s a great moment to get familiar with Junkman's tablet and the concept of the scrap market.





In the 2nd task, you’ll focus on cleaning and restoring various items for the new client. If you decide to keep your sleeves rolled up a bit longer to renovate all the requested items, you’ll get rewarded with a great bonus - the Junkyard Challenge!

[h3]There’s more to see. And play.[/h3]




In the complete version of the Junkyard Simulator, you’ll enjoy lots of quests while, among others, you’ll operate a very complex crusher, use different tools for renovating cars, furniture, home appliances, and carry on items through giant conveyor belt.

You'll process the scrap, opening the containers, and completing many specific orders. The storyline is offering sandbox gameplay, it’s giving you freedom of movement and exploration Junkyard Simulator world.

Yours,
Rebelia Games/PlayWay Team
