Major update

Devlog #6: Transportation

Roller Coaster Park Simulator · published

DevLog time ːsteamhappyː

I was MIA for a while, but I’ve been working on a TON of new features. I won’t cover most of them because, yeah, I’m lazy, but today I finished the first iteration of the skateboarding system!

For transportation, we already have trucks that you can use to deliver items to your shops and get around the park more easily. But trucks are kinda big, so navigating the park can be a bit of a pain in the butt when you just want to get somewhere quickly.

Sooooooooooo I made skateboards!

There are now four different tiers of skateboards. You can unlock each tier by spending Skill Points in the Skill Tree (There is a skill tree now, by the way. One of the many features I forgot to write a DevLog about. My bad).
Each skateboard tier is faster than the previous.

You can also grind on fences to gain a little extra speed. It’s not a huge boost, but I thought it was cool ːsteamhappyː

I also removed the store from the office computer. Previously, you could simply order whatever you needed and have it arrive instantly. I thought it would be more fun if the player had to plan ahead a little, so I started working on a supermarket instead:

It’s still veryyyyyy early in development, but it already works. You need to either take the bus or drive your truck to the supermarket.
Taking the truck has the advantage of letting you carry far more items back to the park. If you take the bus, you are restricted to the nine slots in your inventory. The truck can carry something like 100 boxes at once, so it’s a pretty valuable upgrade in the Skill Tree.

Thats it for now thanks for reading!

(I’m working on a trailer right now might release it soon)

See you in the next DevLog!
