This update makes the game feel much more open and seamless and less like a series of menus, with you now having to drive into gas stations/garages. The inventory management system has been overhauled, and elements of the story have been re-written too. We invite you to give Road to Guangdong a go with this new update installed, as this marks a major revamp of the game's existing content. We'd love to hear your thoughts on the Steam forums and via Steam reviews! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34377780/c1f4b7236e2e8e77e92028427e7cc343fc00c404.jpg Remember that we are holding a Steam free weekend event from 6 - 8 December, and that the Chapter 2 update, continuing Sunny and Guu Ma's heartfelt road trip, will launch next week. Update Details Roadside Garages All garages now appear at the side of the road. You can now pull into and park at any garage you want. When finished, pull out of the garage and onto the road. This makes the game feel much more open and seamless You will also need to concentrate to ensure that you don’t drive past a garage and miss the opportunity to refill and restock. You now also have to pull over by the side of the road in the indicated locations to reach story segments. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34377780/5c62b8c4102e2183d75487c31a6d2ea607256d45.gif Removal of the Progress Bar Now garages are at the side of the road, we wanted to add a sense of drama and tension. To do this we have removed the progress bar from the top of the screen. You will now no longer know when the next garage is coming and so you'll need to manage your resources carefully. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34377780/16f922980818f966d4ef58bbdcda3a88fd431a77.jpg Updated Inventory We have created a single unified inventory that holds oil and fuel cans as well as parts. We have also reduced the inventory to just 12 slots. This brings resource management to the forefront of the game. You will need to carefully manage what parts to keep and discard to make best use of the space available. Updated Repair System The repair system has been augmented to show a clearer link between the inventory and your actions, making the repair gameplay easier to navigate. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34377780/14680c139aea9738bfe6d46172d7a3dfa0dac0d1.jpg Updated Tutorial We have honed the tutorial into a simpler and shorter experience. You now spend less time driving backwards and forwards between the mechanic and the restaurant. We have also made the dialogue more direct to ensure that yous understand your goals and objectives. All Locations Unlocked The farm story, and Gu Maa’s friend story are now unlocked from the beginning of the game, so you have a choice about which location to visit first.

Game Overhaul, Chapter 2 Update and Free Weekend Later this week: Major Game Overhaul Update The Road to Guangdong overhaul update launches later this week, making the game feel much more open and seamless, with gas stations now appearing at the side of the road and players having to pull in and pull out of stations.

The Road to Guangdong TeamNEW UPDATE NOW LIVE | Guu Ma Comes Along for the Ride!Aug 20, 2019 - Community Announcementshttps://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/34377780/0cbf7cd39457d7d4ce7a3479ebf98363bdb43825.png Hello all, Thank you for your patience regarding Road to Guangdong updates. We are happy to announce that we've just launched a brand new update which adds Guu Ma in the car, along on the journey with you. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/34377780/93bde6988fb171e8360bf91610061c2375f6de59.png If you're yet to jump behind the steering wheel, why not do so now at our deepest discount yet! https://store.steampowered.com/app/995840/Road_to_Guangdong__Road_Trip_Car_Driving_Simulator_StoryBased_Indie_Title/ Your beloved Aunt will now offer advice, random nuggets of wisdom, anecdotes, share her opinions on music and may even occasionally fall asleep. You're also now able to look around the car more freely from the driver's seat! https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/34377780/bb2af5cfca9a20a655f741e81fa9c6d5b479bbdf.png We are hard at work on upcoming updates, including more open and natural road-to-gas stop transitions as well as, of course, Chapter 2 of Sunny and Guu Ma's 3 part story. But, for now, take a look at today's full update details: New Features Guu Ma is now in the car with Sunny and will offer advice, random nuggets of wisdom, and anecdotes. She also falls asleep and has her own opinions about music. You are now able to look around in the driver's seat more freely. NOTE: Since the game is still in Early Access and further improvements will be made to this Guu Ma in the car system, the new dialogue is currently only available in English and Simplified Chinese. This means that Guu Ma's in car text will appear localised as follows: Playing in simplified or traditional Chinese - Guu Ma's in-car text will appear in simplified Chinese. Playing in any other language - Guu Ma's in car text will appear in English. Fan belt wear and fit are now linked to the engine's cooling efficiency - a loose and/or worn fanbelt will tend to leave the engine running at a higher temperature increasing the risk of serious damage and breakdowns to the engine. Bug Fixes and Tweaks Fixed several unreported UI bugs Tweaks to car component wear and tear so quality makes more difference - e.g. low quality fanbelts will wear and loosen faster than high quality ones.

Headlights no longer turn on automatically - it's down to you to manually turn on the headlights via the car dashboard. You can now also change radio channel and volume via interacting directly with the radio. Now, you enter and exit the car by clicking on the car door when you're on the road and wish to repair the car! And finally, sensitivity options have now been added in the menu. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/34377780/0d7db00940b1676d374f8846f0cc5d1e3d9ec6bb.gif Thanks, The Road to Guangdong TeamUPDATE NOW LIVE | Vehicle Wear and Damage Systems OverhauledJun 27, 2019 - Community Announcementshttps://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/34377780/3dddcd890c9f7d6b63ecbcac7f72e0c7ec94f271.jpg Hello all, We have just made live a game changing update which overhauls the way Road to Guangdong's vehicle wear and damage systems work.

The focus is on making the breaking down and repairing elements of the game more seamless and feel less like a set of menus. Now, when checking your car, there's no loading screen, and instead of repairing and walking around the car in the manual-like mode, you now walk around the car out on the road itself. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/34377780/d0cbcf61650aa6b8ba34f607999a1d353b3ff24d.png We've also tweaked the procedural generation of the tea fields and industrial plane environments in order to make the roads more interesting to drive along! This is just the beginning of our continued Early Access support and updates for Road to Guangdong, and we will be launching more updates very soon.

The engine coolant temperature gauge is now active on the dashboard. This important gauge gives you valuable information in how hot your engine is getting. If the temperature is rising you are probably over revving the engine and causing wear and tear. We know we have lots of feedback to address, so expect more updates next week!

Of course, you'll need to replace tyres, engines, fan belts and more. These valuables don't come free, and so you'll need to keep an eye on the wallet, make sure to stock up and be prepared for potential breakdowns. You can purchase and sell fuel, oil and parts at gas stations, and it'll be crucial that you sell what you don't need and only buy what you do need. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/34377780/4afb50d7cbb07df475eb52b3bc21261415d1bcf5.gif If you're savvy, you'll also be able to search scrap heaps and salvage the odd car part free of cost - though of course their condition might not be great... How you drive out on the road will impact your finances too - drive too fast and aggressively and your tyre wear will increase.

Road to Guangdong is a grand adventure, and we'll be expanding upon Sunny and Guu Ma's road trip throughout Early Access by adding more family members and locations to drive to and to visit. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/34377780/2f6c9b5bf0432fd48bc9fc55df2a637e30f58b13.jpg It's not long until you'll be in the driver's seat, selecting your destination and embarking on an epic road trip!

Both will be available on 6 June alongside the base game. Road to Guangdong Official Soundtrack https://store.steampowered.com/app/1094750/Road_To_Guangdong_Official_Soundtrack/ Own the delightful Road to Guangdong Official Soundtrack, composed by Chris Randle (John Wick Hex, LA Cops, Volume). The OST features 10 tracks. The in-car radio is a vital part of Road to Guangdong, and the music, separated by Sunny's and Guu Ma's musical tastes, plays a key role in their journey across 1990s China. From Guu Ma's traditional, calm and relaxing music from the region, to Sunny's contemporary modernised favourites, you'll be transported to atmospheric Guangdong. Road to Guangdong Deluxe Edition https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/34377780/542f258a8e4c8db36f906e70538c7f477aed6a30.png Road to Guangdong - Deluxe Edition includes the game, plus the fantastic 10-piece official soundtrack, at one great price. If you're after both the game and the soundtrack, this is your best option, as it'll be the most cost effective way to do so!

Visiting your Uncle's farm in order to rekindle your relationships and gain support for your newly inherited family restaurant, you'll have the chance to catch up with your little cousin Loi Loi. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/34377780/111a55c2d858be7f9c952203f078db1417158cc4.jpg It's down to you, Sunny, to make dinner for relatives, and chicken's on the menu... how you wish to proceed is up to you. Loi Loi's favourite chicken, Aap Aap, is one option - but is it the best route? This story, and others, have multiple choices, consequences and potential outcomes. We'll leave you to decide on 6 June, when the game launches!

This launch trailer is the most expansive and varied trailer we've released yet, with lots of new footage debuted.

This may well upset poor Guu Ma, not getting to see all of her family members and complete the journey. But worry not, as you'll of course have the option to then continue from your latest checkpoint! https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/34377780/dd8f436dccaaecdce869cf53f4a909bb2ec3c6ba.gif With Road to Guangdong's heavy focus on atmosphere and ensuring that you really do feel like you're in 1990s China, it was important to us to incorporate as much as the 'UI' as possible in-world. For instance, instead of having a message or pop up telling you your oil is low, we opted for a more subtle but immersive approach of communicating that through the in-car dashboard. And that's it for today's update! Join us tomorrow for another look at Road to Guangdong.
