Journal - the most important panel in the game.

Hello Guys!


[h2]We are glad to come to you with a new update!
Last week was full of hard work and we had to deal with many issues.
Now we want to show you new features and give you an answer about dealing with prisoners![/h2]


Player Journal


In the journal there are six labels which contain the most important information about inventory, quests and stuff like that.

The first label - equipment. Here you can see all of your items. You can also asign food to one of the pocekts slots to access them by pressing Z or X on your keyboard. Different types of food and drinks change your stamina or health level so it is important to buy it. In case of long distance running or just ordinary fighting.



Second label - quests. This is your personal assistant. You can check what quests you have already done, and how many of them you still have to complete. Under the primary list you can see side quests. Whenever you accept a quest from prisoners it will be availiable right here. Completed quests have "success" description. So it is easy to see your progress.



Third label - map. Here you can see all your facility. Prison is a large building so you will need some help at the beginning. On the right side you have a list with all the most important places in your prison. Monitoring room, Warden's office or shooting range... Everything in one place. You can also see some icons like gamepad or a triangle. Gamepads icons mean that there you can play some mini games like lifting weights or darts, triangle shows your position. It is quite simple!



Collectibles. Hmmm. That's quite interesting. Some items are hidden in prison. And this is all what we can say. Good luck!



Skills. This panel shows you your skill tree. Every time you do your job well you get skill points. You can use them to unlock new skills. One of the most interesting skills is "trust". You can trade with more inmates and it depends on how much respect is between you and them. Nothing hard. Skills can be upgraded but you have to reach required level to have a chance to buy them.



The last thing in our journal is tutorial. If you forget anything about the game you can go there and just check it. You will see game tips here as well. It is something like: "Hey mom did you see my pants?" She always know where your things are.



Bonus: Many of you asked us about dealing with prisoners so we recorded short movie to show you how it looks like. Enjoy!

Update #12 - Yummy, yummy food...

The canteen is one of the most visited places in prison. Convicts have to eat something, so they are happy to go there even if the food quality is similar to toilet water.


[h2]
Once you get to the canteen, the prisoners will line up in queue for trays. Everyone who gets their portions goes to take a seat.
[/h2]



You have to remember that this is the place where prisoners may want to fight with each other or even try to kill someone.
Don't panic. Stay calm. You're the only one who can settle the conflict. Use your weapon if you have to.



Various quests are also connected to the canteen. For example, someone may try to bribe the cook to add a bit of this and that to a meal of one of the prisoners... but we won't tell you any more details. You will find out for yourself how creative inmates can be.



Thank you so much for support!
We are glad we have such a great community.

Stay tuned,
and see you next time!

Update #11 - Custom beds, custom crates, custom... toilets?

Hello Players!


[h2]We are coming to you with a fresh update![/h2]

[h3]Previous week was quite exhausting. We've been working on new features, new dialogs and new addons. It is important for us to make our game completed. We want to take care about all details. We listen to our players and we decided to change the walls because old ones weren't matchy. It is fully understable. So here it is!
[/h3]



You have to rememeber that this is a screenshot from development build so it may change a bit before the official release.
We decided to use concrete walls instead of bricks. The prison cells are more bright and they look bigger. It also resolved the problem with wall paitings. Now they look nice and fresh. We think, the new style is much better. What do you think about it?

We also improved lights a bit and added some details and more props. Going back to the requests. We changed the bed textures in our infirmary because previous one was too dirty and there was blood on it. After deep reserch, finding photos and reading we created new texture with quite clean duvet. We thinik it is now how it should be but take a look and say what you think. Your feedback is very important for us.



The next thing is customization panel. First you have to reach required level and complete needed quest. Then you can go to the warden's room and use his computer. It is easy. Just press E key while looking at the screen.



You have few options here. At the moment he most important is an option to buy new skins for your objects like sinks, beds and even crates! We wanted to give you a chance to customize the prison and feel like it is yours. We prepared few different skins. From the ordinary, not so good-looking to lavish and luxury ones (for example - golden crates).



This is all what we wanted to show you after the whole week. We are so excited that we can provide you more screens, movies and even streams. We are creating an awesome community together.

Cheers,
and see you next time!

Update #10 - don't touch my... - shakedown routine

Shakedown routine


[h2]Hello guys! Welcome to our next update. 10th. Nice number. Today we're going to tell you a little bit about searching the cells and looking for illegal items called contraband.[/h2]

When you go to the cell you have few places to check. Sink, toilet and a bed. Remember that one object can be checked in different ways. For example if you exmine a sink you have to search the tap and the part under the whole object. You don't know if someone didn't hide something there.




You can find two types of objects - legal and illegal. If prisoner is allowed to have some objects you can take it or leave it. Your choice but remember he can have it so you might lose your respect level between you and the convict when you will take his goods.




When you find illegal stuff you have three options to choose from. You can take it, leave it or secure it. The last one don't give you this item. It is confiscated in the name of prison. By doing it you can increase your respect level between you and the guards. Fair enough.




Remember that you can search for the contraband even if it is not during the shakedown routine. You can do it whenever you want but you have to know that prisoners may be angry and even attack you if you are too middlesome.




In cells you can also find graffiti made by prisoners. Sometimes there are also posters and other goods. They change during the game so you may see new objects everyday. It is something like a little tittle-tattle. Enjoy!




Thank you so much for reading this update. We are working so hard to end and release Prison Simulator this year. We want to satisfy you - our players and we want to give you our final product without bugs, problems and other uncomfortable situations. We're adding new things, new objects, additional mechanics and we are polishing our base version of the game to have time to implement other content (for example from requests).

[h2]Best wishes from our team![/h2]




Update #9 - prisoners, fights and other miracles...

Hello dear Players!


We are glad you were with us during the last livestream. We hope you are satisfied and you like the general look of our game. It is very important for us to stay in touch with you, and to show you the game even if it is still in development. We are adding new content and improving existing one. The best idea is to provide you many hours of good gameplay. That's why we are working on many additional quests not only connected to the main story.

First of all we want to end demo version to let some of you play Prison Simulator. We need to add some details and make sure everything is ok. Your feedback is very important for us because we are able to change something or fix bugs which we didn't notice.

As we wrote before we are adding more parcels with different items inside to make it various. They are randomly generated so it is essential to preserve diversity.

We are also improving prisoners' behaviour during the attendance check routine. When you go to the cells block you have to open the cells. During this time, the prisoners leave their cells, but some stay in them. So you have to go up to them and talk to them. They'll give you all sorts of reasons why they don't want to go to the assembly. Sometimes it can make you laugh. You decide if you be polite and patient or if you force them to go to the rally. Your choice.

During that routine you can notice that some prisoners are fighting. You need to react quickly enough. Once you have controlled the situation, it is your job to report the behaviour by radio and give the right punishment for an aggressive convict. It can be for example:

  • no phones
  • solitary
  • no pass
  • no cell leaving


and more...
