You spoke, we listened (and we brought gifts)2026-04-30Hey Gas Jockeys! A little while back, we dropped a devlog called "What if everything were different?" and asked you to share your thoughts with us. The replies that did come in have been genuinely valuable, and we've read every single one. So, before anything else: thank you to everyone who took the time.Even from a smaller batch of feedback, a clear signal came through. The hunger to build a station from the ground up keeps coming up, and so does the call for more freedom and deeper customization. We also see those of you who chose to keep your ideas to yourselves. No worries — we've got designers on the team working hard on their telepathic
CONTEST: QA Gave Up. It's Your Turn!2026-04-24Greetings Gasjockeys! 🫡 We were going to write a proper devlog this week. Then someone was grabbing screenshots for something else and stopped on those: None of these are bugs. Nothing's broken. They're just those frames the game hands you sometimes. We stared at them for a while and couldn't agree on what any of them were about. So, caption them. Pick one, pick all three, whatever moves you. Drop your captions (or better the pictures) on Discord (#caption-this). Next Friday we'll pick a winner, who gets: A Steam key for a friend (because you already own the game, you beautiful person) Their caption printed and taped to the studio coffee mac

⛽ YOUR Station. YOUR Rules. But What If Everything Was Different?2026-04-17Hey, Gas Jockeys! 👋 What if you could start from scratch? Not a dilapidated station that came with the property, not old pumps, not even any shady bathroom stories. You have the opportunity to design your dream gas station from scratch, but not in the same world as we know it. In a different time period, in a different environment, and perhaps even in a different world order. That being said, here's what we're really interested in hearing: 🔧 What's first on your agenda when designing your company? Will you focus on providing customers with top-quality services and products? Or will you aim for profits at any cost by finding ways to save on
In the Rearview #3: The Original UI2026-04-10Hey Gas Jockeys! ⛽ Welcome back to In the Rearview! Today, we’re digging through the archives to look at something you use every single shift: the User Interface. 🖥️ 📸 Station Scrapbook Do you remember these old menus, or are you a newer owner? What has been your favourite UI or quality-of-life improvement since you first started playing? ✨ Sound off in the comments below! 👇 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Curious how to make your shift at our suspiciously busy airport a little easier?

🚧 Health & Safety Violations #1: Results2026-04-04Hey Gas Jockeys! ⛽ Last week, we challenged you to test the limits of the station's physics by getting Rudy or Towy into the most impossible, strange, or difficult spots you could find. We looked through all your submissions on the Steam Community. You definitely delivered, and picking a single winner wasn't easy. However, one submission stood out above the rest. 🏆 🥇 The Winner: ja-mezz Congratulations on this absolute masterpiece of terrible parking.

Health & Safety Violations #1: Extreme Parking2026-03-27Hey Gas Jockeys! ⛽ 🚧 Welcome to Health & Safety Violations, a new community challenge series where we ask you to push the limits of the station's physics. We see the crazy things you do with the vehicles in the game, so we decided to make it an official competition. For our first challenge, we are focusing on the heavy machinery. 🎯The Objective Your goal is simple: Get Rudy (the Excavator) or Towy (the Tow Truck) into the strangest, most impossible place you can. Whether you manage to balance them on the station roof, wedge them inside the convenience store, or get them stuck somewhere completely unexpected in the desert, we want to see it.
The Menace Behind the Menace2026-03-21Hey Gas Jockeys! ⛽ Ever wonder why Dennis is so obsessed with terrorizing your gas station? Today, we’re pulling back the curtain on his backstory to reveal the truth: Dennis has a gangster dad. Meet Duke, the loudest, flashiest, and most obnoxious self-proclaimed gangster in town. Growing up as his son Dennis had a rough childhood, and now he's taking it out on your station. If you are interested in the origin story of this small town kingpin, long before Dennis was even born. Go wishlist our upcoming prequel, Roadhouse Simulator, today! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the Rearview #2: Shaping the Game2026-03-19Hey Gas Jockeys ⛽ The Road So Far... 🛣️Let’s be real: the journey to making Gas Station Simulator what it is today wasn't exactly a smooth ride on a freshly paved highway. It was a long, bumpy road through the desert, filled with trial, error, and a whole lot of sand. But we weren't driving alone. Your feedback—starting from the very first Demo and moving through the Early Days Prologue—was our North Star. It’s thanks to your ideas, your bug reports, and your passion that the game’s vision finally crystallized over the years. You didn’t just play the game; you helped us build it. A Trip Down Memory Lane 🎞️Today, we’re back with the second i

Shady Deals DLC goes Roadhouse Simulator 📢2026-02-19We’ve made a decision regarding the Shady Deals DLC for Gas Station Simulator. We are no longer working on Shady Deals. After ending our cooperation with the external team responsible for the DLC due to quality issues, we decided not to continue its development as a separate expansion. Instead, we chose a different approach. Shady Deals is a big and exciting concept that we are excited about, and we believe it deserves more than just a DLC. That’s why its core ideas and features will become part of Roadhouse Simulator, in the form of a full game experience. Gas Station Simulator is already heavily expanded with DLCs, and we’ve heard your feed

The uncle’s story… coming soon!2026-02-06Hey Gas Jockeys! The uncle is a rather colourful and enigmatic character we meet throughout Gas Station Simulator and even in the Car Junkyard DLC. He is a businessman with a somewhat shady touch to his approach, something that is often evident in various encounters and propositions of his. Some view the uncle as a slightly evil person, some view him as the opposite, depending on the amount of interactions you had with him. But in reality, he is neither. His sole focus has always been to make a profit, and the bad and good things he has done along the way were just byproducts of his relentless pursuit to not miss a good opportunity. How did t
