Haulin' Oats - Alpha Version 0.0.3 Update

Hey, long-haul truckers! Today is the day that version 0.0.3 of the game finally rolls out. There was a lot of stuff that changed since the last alpha update like fonts, graphics, layouts, etc.

Change-log


Here is a handy list of changes:
  • Added: encryption for save files
  • Added: networking framework
  • Added: saving of game statistics
  • Added: more music from the soundtrack
  • Added: radio station-style swap through music tracks
  • Added: final font designs thanks to cultivated minds
  • Added: rich presence text for Steam friends list
  • Changed: bot wait button text to be more clear
  • Changed: various art assets with new fonts
  • Changed: various chunks of code for better performance
  • Changed: menu layout now moves around the table
  • Changed: swapped object order in menu to prevent button blocking
  • Fixed: issue with randomizer

Steam Autumn Game Festival


For those of you without alpha access to the game, the version 0.0.2 demo is still available for the duration of the festival and will be updated to the alpha version 0.0.3 demo this weekend. As with the previous one, it is limited to one lap and a limited number of Encounter, Resource, and Incident cards. Once the festival is over, the demo is go away again. However, when the game is released in January, the demo will resurface as the official "final build" demo and will get subsequent updates when the main game gets updated. Yes, that means a day-one demo.

Next Up


Now that most of the core changes are in place it is time to crank out the rest of the missing assets and final missing feature: racing. So far everything still seems to be on target for the January release. The biggest thing to test in the next and (hopefully) final alpha is networked games. We will talk more about that leading up to the next alpha release which should be sometime in late November. See you then!

  • This is a game about truck driving, the US highways, and oatmeal. During your time as a truck driver for the Starkham Oatmeal company, you will be tasked with delivering crates of delicious oats to the local grocery store. The roads are fraught with dangers, as well as delights, so be sure to take along a trusty co-pilot and / or pet.

    Arranged as a digital board game, you will encounter a wide variety of characters and obstacles ranging from drug cartels, bike gangs, random maniacs, pop stars, police, serial killers, and the few folk that aren't completely crazy. Make your way around the board and collect your wages every time you complete a delivery then return to the warehouse. Use it to buy spare parts for your truck, the favor of lot lizards, or sometimes bribe your way out of trouble.



    When you start a game, each player will get to choose one of eight different drivers; with three locked by default. Each has two strengths and weaknesses, like bonuses to truck ramming checks or penalties to dealing with the law. Mix and match the different drivers with co-pilots and pets to get the upper hand against your opponents.

    Just like the drivers, each co-pilot and pet has one different benefit and disadvantage. If you get a bad Incident card draw, you might just accidentally leave 'em at a truck stop somewhere for an opponent to scoop up. If none suit your play style, you can choose to play without one if you want.

    Special guest characters (drivers, co-pilots, and pets) can be unlocked through different quests or by doing certain things a bunch.



    Old friends from our previous games make an appearance as well. One cannot go through Starkham without seeing familiar faces like Bill Finnigan or Aloysius. They are sometimes found in Encounter or Incident decks. Depending on who you find, they may have a mission for you or an item to barter.

    There are a lot of other characters as well. Scattered throughout the Incident, Encounter, and Resource decks various characters await you, either to rob you blind or give you mini-quests to complete. Heck, some might just need something as simple as a ride down the highway a bit or a wee bit of your money.



    A quick and dirty list of features, for those of you who like bullet-lists:
    • Music by Azucar (One Way To Die, Raise Your Own Clone) and El Castor
    • All hand-drawn art
    • 36 squares all filled with adventure
    • 8 different drivers, 8 different co-pilots, and, of course, 8 different pets (including special guests)
    • 75 different cards per Encounter, Incident, and Resources deck
    • Play with others in online or LAN multiplayer
    • The usual breakdown of statistics and leaderboards to measure yourself against
    • Achievements that actually unlock stuff



    Whether your driving record is spotless or you've played one of our games before, get some quicker in-game unlocks with the Mileage Club! For each of our previous games that you've owned or played (demo, family share, or free weekend), you will unlock guest characters or table accoutrements.

    Haven't done so or don't got 'em? Don't worry, you can get all the same characters and bonuses by just playing the game. And with a little elbow grease.
