Continuing the beta testing branch with more new changes. The "Stamp Users" are all in and can be found in game, with all their different Stamps. We're also starting to add the new customization options.

INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT NOTE: The testing branch and the retail version use different save files! Testing Branch saves also get cleared out on occasion. HOW TO INSTALL: Right click Death Road to Canada on Steam. Go to Properties. Go to Betas. Select Testbranch, no password necessary.

CHANGES

- Temporary characters now drop their weapons when they disappear - Blowtorch and Napalm Thrower are now both unbreakable - Hekatarius event can now give fireproofing to solo survivors - MORE UNLOCKABLE HATS added. Will later give them new conditions for unlocking them, currently if you unlocked all the previous hats, you'll get the new ones - Added new male hair and head options, and new skin color options. Currently they're added to the main rotation, we will likely make some of these unlockable or limited somehow - GIANT-DAWG now points at things instead of sumo wrestling, and gets 3 health instead of 2 - GIANT-DAWG can now pick up and use weapons as its unique ability - All Stamps now have 6 fitness, which is kind of moot now - All Stamps now have infinite energy, and no longer bleed - Most Stamps are now a lot faster - ProPAIN now has one health, is slower, and explodes on death (explosion does not hurt allies) - CharBro can now be found in the trader camp rare recruit list - Having a Stamp User in your team can lead to finding more Stamp Users in Road Events. The more you have on your team, the faster you find the next Stamp User, though you can still find all of them (eventually) with just one Stamp User in the team - Fixed a sound bug with explosions

MODDER NOTES/UNDER THE HOOD

- Trying a new event structure where most of the events are contained in one file, per update

Death Road to Canada is a Randomly Generated Road Trip Simulator. You control and manage a car full of jerks as they explore cities, recruit weird people, argue with each other, and face gigantic swarms of slow zombies.

Death Road is built for replay value. Everything is randomized: locations, events, survivor appearances and personalities. There's a different story every time you play, set in a world that doesn't take itself too seriously.

Death Features:

• Up to 500 zombies can hunt you down at a time. Fight them, try to squirm past, or run.
  
• Use the character creator to put yourself, friends, and family in the game. Have them show up at random to get eaten!
  
• Find special and rare events, weapons, and characters with strange abilities.
  
• Make tough choices in Interactive Fiction events. Get different options and results based on the traits of your party members.
  
• Teach a dog how to drive a car.
  
• Throw chairs. Get your characters strong enough to throw large sofas.
  
• Most family friendly zombie apocalypse game on the market! Any gore explosion is in a cute style. We censor the word d*ngus once.
  
• Tell people to "Cool it."
