Fat[EX] Courier Simulator News

[h2]Sometimes changes are necessary - they can be refreshing and make you feel ready for any challenge![/h2]



Above you can see our courier as we had seen him in many adventures up until this point. With so many deliveries and so many missions under his belt even he can feel a little bit tired! In order to give him some new strength and energy to face another day we offered him a chance to change his looks a little bit and we're happy to say that he agreed! And as such we started planning his big reveal! Below you'll see the work we've done up until this moment - we're happy to say that he instantly became full of energy!



New clothes can make a world of difference! As summer is coming we decided on more casual and lighter clothes - he is now ready to face all deliveries no matter the heat! We also spent some time on working on his physique so he might seem a little bit different to you! His face was also changed - he feels more approachable now which might be essential in his line of work. Maybe it's us but he also seems happier - and that's very important!



Clothes might change but we needed to make sure that people will know that he is in fact a courier - the logo is still displayed on the back of his shirt to make sure that he can be recognized even from a far or if he is walking back to his van after a succesful delivery. Afterall not all heroes wear capes but this hero has his own way of showing off his status!

How do you like our new model for a courier? Let us know in the comments!

Best regards,

[h2]Packages come in different sizes and are made of different materials. Even their purpose can be varied![/h2]



Take a look at the simplest of the packagings. It seems very easy to produce, yet it is so elegant! This little blue box that our courier is holding might be a house to a myriad of dreams depending on what the person who ordered the packaging wanted. Sometimes it's very tempting to look into a small box like this one but be careful - you should never violate someone's privacy!



This type of boxes are designed for heavy lifting. You can put a lot of things inside and they're not as easy to destroy as it would seem. By the way - did you know that cardboard boxes are more than 100 years old? The first one got patented in 1903! That's a lot of history behind those containers that we're used to seeing here and there. Let's treat it with respect. In the case of our courier - he's patiently waiting behind a defensive wall consisting of carefully stacked boxes. Nothing can hurt him there!



Some deliveries might even happen in this kind of boxes. Not the usual job but if a customer pays well... Why wouldn't we? We're a delivery service after all and if someone wants us to deliver a particular set of things then who are we to judge?

We appreciate you checking in this week. Take care and see you next one!

Best regards,

[h2]Ah... Nothing quite like the smell of multiple deliveries in the morning... [/h2]

...although after a moment of peaceful bliss you realize that you don't have quite the time to sit around idly and drink coffee because you need to run right now to your truck and start delivering packages or the complaints won't stop!



Get into your truck and move on! There are many packages to be delivered and a little time. You'll have to do your best in order to reach them all and have your customers be satisfied with the time of your arrival. Make sure to drive carefully yet quickly because with this kind of amount of work you'll definitely want to step on the gas pedal.



Just a few more and you'll be all done... but at what cost? Days like today can be quite stressful but sometimes you'll have to deal with it too! After all you're the best in this line of work and many rely on your professional services!

Thank you and see you next week!

Best regards,

[h2]Thank you for filling out the achievement survey from our last devlog![/h2]

We're happy to see you engaged in our activities and to see your opinion about the achievement systems. We've received many answers for the questions we asked last time and we're happy to share some of the answers to our survey. What is more - we've received many messages of encouragement and positive feedback and we are absolutely thrilled to hear that! Thank you very much for your kind words!



Interestingly enough fans of our project are split almost evenly among fans of achievements and players who don't really care that much about that particular feature of the game. What it does tell us is that even though most of you don't necessarily dislike the achievement system we would be wise to make the system within which achievements would be more subtle. This is something that we will definitely consider when working on this particular feature of the game. Those of you in favour of the achievements said that they give you a goal to work for - which in itself is an important thing to consider.



As it turns out - some of you tend to decide on playing the game in relation to game having an achievement system or not. Broadly speaking you also prefer to have more achievements in the game than less. It makes the game more engaging and feel like there is another extra goal you might want to reach.

Is the dog gone yet...?

While you would like to see serious achievements in the game, almost all of you is in favour of having at least some funny achievements in the game too. As Fat[EX] Courier Simulator tends to lean a little bit more into a funny parody style of gameplay we're happy to hear that.

Now let's focus on the achievements you yourself have submitted - we are very thankful for all of them and we've got to say that there were some that we've particularly liked and found funny.

"Get chased by a customer's dog and not get bitten" - we can definitely see the potential here, thank you for the submission!

"Throw all the packages into you customers' faces" - a little bit mean but we understand the general appeal here!

"Talk to as many people as you can" - a true social buttefly kind of delivery guy!

Thank you for your participation in our short survey and see you next week!

Best regards,
Fat[EX] Courier Simulator Team

[h2]We all love achievements and bragging about them![/h2]



This time we'd love to direct some questions at you! Below you'll find a short survey form that we'd love if you could fill out for us. There are just a few questions regarding the achievements you'd like to see in the game and how important are they for you. Please - spare us few minute and fill it out if you have time!



When we think about delivery achievements we tend to group them in two separate categories - fun achievements and serious achievements. As you might imagine the fun achievements are somewhat light in their nature - stuff like deliver a package without using your truck at all or fail all deliveries. Those are very specific and sometimes might be over the top. Serious achievements are more about the efficiency of your deliveries - for example delivering the packages with a large time limit still outstanding or making sure that all deliveries are undamaged.



We'd also love to hear your thoughts about the achievements and that is why below you'll find a short form. Please let us know about your ideas, thoughts and suggestions - we'd be more than happy to check through them! Cheers!
