Hi everyone!

I would like to start this very first DevLog by thanking the 150 wishlists across the globe! The reception of Retro Rail GO! was way bigger and more positive than I could ever hope for! I'm really glad that you have liked this small passion project of mine and hope to make it as fun, nostalgic and good looking as you deserve it so!

Now, to proper "devlogging": The current focus has been to polish and finalize the core section of our first line: Shin-Keisei, located in Chiba Prefecture. With the help of satellite images and user's videos, I'm able to reproduce a retro version of the railway's surroundings, placing houses, buildings, roads and trees along the route. It is indeed a bit time consuming, but the visual component of the game deserves as much attention as possible, so the final experience feels authentic. Below is an image example of the ongoing process:

In parallel, work has also been done to improve the station stopping evaluation, which felt a bit too raw and harsh. In the next DevLog, I will bring the first gameplay footage, showing the replay and evaluation mechanic.

See you soon!

Dear Valued Players,

We offer our deepest apologies to all affected players for the severe save data rollback issue caused by the recently launched "Combat Train" DLC for Bomb Vehicle Idle Clicker.

This technical malfunction resulted in some players who purchased the DLC experiencing lost game progress after updating. This situation completely contradicts our original goal of providing players with a high-quality and stable gaming experience, and we deeply regret and take full responsibility for this incident.

We fully understand that game progress represents the time and passion players have invested, and any form of loss is unacceptable. Our technical team has urgently identified the root cause and released a fix patch (version 19456738). All affected players are strongly advised to update immediately.

To compensate for the inconvenience and losses caused by this incident, we will distribute a compensation package containing rare resources to all players who logged into the game during the affected period (from the DLC launch until the release of the fix patch). To claim your rewards, please enter the game and input the redemption code "combat-train-dlc". Please note: This code is only valid for players who have purchased the Combat Train DLC.

Once again, we sincerely apologize for this error. We will conduct a thorough review, strengthen our version testing and quality control processes, and take all necessary steps to prevent such issues from happening again. Thank you for your understanding, patience, and continued support. Your trust is our greatest motivation to move forward.

(cheeky ramble)

Hello pirate gamers there's been a lack of consistent updates for pfs which is due to being busy with real life stuff and that. So i apologise for the few of you who would like to see more cool stuff or stuff in general in the game. I have fun updating it and i got some ideas i wanna do like a boat map and overhauling the visuals with new models, textures and animations among other things. But i wouldn't expect that anytime soon, it really just depends on if i have the energy and time for it. Just wanted to share the reason for the lack of updates and say that the void between them will probably not change lol considering the last 'large' update was 7 months ago. And thats about it, cya!

Thank you for playing, racing, and occasionally exploding with us.

As always, send feedback our way—especially if something feels off (or too on).

🏁 See you at the starting line.
