Hot Hatch(Prinz) dev update & nominate Mon Bazou for this years Steam Awards!

Hello, fellow ditch riders!

I'm still working hard on the Hot Hatch update, but it's now planned to release before Christmas! The car will be locked at the start of the game, but it will be unlockable by building up friendship.

It has been such an amazing adventure doing this game... I quit my job early last year to pursue developing Mon Bazou full-time, and I'm looking forward to many more years of game development! The support from you all is amazing!

The reviews are still Overwhelmingly Positive after two years. This, and coming close on 10,000 reviews... TEN THOUSAND? Damn, that's a huge thing for me.

Since a lot of people think the updates are too far apart, here's a little info:
- As a solo dev, I don't want to make false promises on a release date
- The main thing is, I want it to be like I imagined it to be
- Rushed updates are bad updates! Ahah!

If you haven't seen the road-map, here are the next things I will work on after the Hot Hatch update:
- A big, end-goal, weekend long multisport championship competition (Race, Drag, Off-road, etc.)
- Off-road racing track
- Fishing & activities on the islands

So, that's probably gonna be quite a good thing to send Mon Bazou out of early access!

I love you all,
-Santa Goat
