🛠️ Full Game QoL Improvements

We’ve been listening closely to your feedback and made the game much smoother and more satisfying to play:

  • No more dragging boxes everywhere Shift + Click a box and it will automatically load into the nearest vending machine or your truck.

  • Better flow, less friction Managing inventory and restocking is now faster and way more intuitive.

🚚 Truck Upgrades & Customization

Your truck is no longer just transport… it’s part of your strategy.

  • Illegal Mods (Yakuza Row 👀) Install shady upgrades with powerful in-game effects.

  • Truck Customization Change colors and add stickers to make your truck truly yours.

✨ Charms & Daily Bonuses

We’ve added a new layer of progression to your daily routine:

  • Charms that grant special effects to your daily tasks • Daily bonus items to boost your runs in different ways • Charms can be purchased at the Temple Grounds

💰 Economy & Balance Improvements

We’ve reworked the progression and earnings:

  • Smoother income curve • More rewarding early and mid-game • Better scaling as you expand across the city

The full game feels much more satisfying from start to finish.

🎁 Supporter Pack DLC

We’ll also be launching a Supporter Pack DLC alongside the game:

  • Includes additional truck skins • No gameplay impact – purely cosmetic • A way to support the game further if you’d like ❤️

Thank you for being part of this journey and supporting us throughout development.

See you in Vending Machine Co. on April 25th!
