Arcade style gameplay will be merged with story mode
Open world gameplay will be sorted out in to mutliple smaller compact maps
Fast travel between the locations. Fast travel will be done by entering and exiting your car, although there will be no driving.
Blackwater has been extended and will be a normal location (not just a management screen)
Classic RPG style dialogues with NPCs will be added to the game. (as a means for story mode)

The next version 0.2 will contain some of the story mode along with the repeating bounties.

The game will be kept in early access for a short time until the story is finalized and i will still be taking requests if there are any.

Thanks for your support!!
