Update notes via Steam Community
Hey survivor!

in today's update, we bring you new cars, creative mode, and other new things.

So let's take it gradually:

New cars

Enemies can now attack you and chase you both the classic version of HotRod and its Off-road version.
So you can confiscate both versions of the cars.
  • Hot Rod - Classic
  • Hot Rod - Off-road

There are also two new cars available to you:
  • BB Buggy
  • Farm Pickup

And a special:
  • Snowmobile


BB Buggy and Farm Pickup must be constructed in your garage (on the lower floor).
A snowmobile can be found in the snow world around specific POI locations.

Junkyard


A junkyard is now available in the home zone (near the petrol station) - this junkyard must be built (similar to your garage)!
The junkyard can also be found in the snowy world, both near the main helipad and in some POIs.
This building is mainly used for dismantling or selling your cars. It is necessary to drive to the appropriate junkyard gate.
Here you can sell/disassemble both the cars you have in the garage and cars you confiscate from enemies.
Your main starting car cannot be sold or dismantled!
You will get a few credits for the sale, but the main thing is disassembly, thanks to which you will get the necessary components for the construction of other cars.
You will also find a new parts dealer here.

Garage


Your garage now includes space on the lower floor for building new cars, as well as a new workbench for the production of car parts.
If you want to own any captured car (enemy or found) it is necessary to bring it to the garage door and store it in it.

New radio stations

we are glad to announce further cooperation with two new radio stations.
You will find the following new radio stations in the game:
GamerFM - gamer.fm
Reach Radio - reachradio.co.uk

Creative mode


If you just want to build and not be bothered by survival mechanics, enemies, and the need to find raw materials, etc.
So this mode is exactly for you. Here you can build as you want and what you want.
There are currently two islands (forest mountain island and forest flat island).
There is also a garage and the necessary things (tools) and especially cars with which you can drive here.
We would like to connect this game mode to a steam workshop in the future and thus allow you to share your buildings among other players.

Scenario

There is now a "Scenario" section in the main menu, this game mode is not finished yet (but it will be soon).
Here, over time, you will find specific game scenarios separate from the main game. And you will be able to play new stories in different and specific conditions.
