What's new
Changelog
Test builds so far. The game is in testing and not released yet.
1.7.3
UPCOMING - IN TESTING- New HUD: a much cleaner screen. Just your name, money and time at the top; energy and stomach on the minimap ring.
- Speedometer in the GAS button (phone): speed, gear, a rev ring that turns red near the redline, and a fuel arc that flashes red when you're low. On PC the same round speedometer sits bottom right.
- Thumb controls on phones: a steering slider on the left, GAS / BRAKE and the wheelie, fly and stoppie buttons on the right. Get off and Bike box only show when you've stopped.
- Quick wheel: hold MENU (or Tab on PC) for Map, Bag, Eat & drink, Bike service, Career, Unstuck, Guide and Settings while you ride. A tap still opens the full menu.
- Walking controls: off the bike you get a walk joystick, drag to look around, a RUN button and one big action button (Get on / Enter / Order / Sit).
- PC: Settings > On-screen buttons: Auto / Always / Off - no touch buttons on a keyboard or gamepad.
- Clothes are items: new clothes, helmets, shoes, hats, glasses and bags go into your bag. Change anywhere from the Inventory, or store them at home and change in the wardrobe. Every item shows in its own colours.
- Recycle Center: a new place in the west of town that buys back what you don't need - parts, food, clothes and spare performance parts.
- Throw away items from the bag, bike box or home storage.
- 2T oil at petrol stations.
- Fixes: RON95 is yellow and RON97 green at the pump; long shop names stay on one line; money and time no longer wrap on phones.
1.7.2
Closed testing- New names: every bike, brand and shop has its own fictional name - Velocity Motor, Restorant Bamboo, Manaw Garage, X-Pro, Raey Tech (Dyno-Pro), Speed Zone Mart, Bin SuperMart, JJMart and more.
- Signboards now carry the same logo as the map icon.
- Petrol stations each have their own brand look: Petro-Nasi, Snail and Calid.
- X-Pro race parts store with a catalog. Performance parts now come in Street, Race and Pro steps - only Pro parts need the Automotive Certificate to fit yourself.
- Part brands for service parts: Toba-Kaki, Original, NKL Tech and X-PRO Racing - cheaper parts wear out sooner, better ones grip, brake and protect the engine better.
- New art: redrawn item icons, realistic product pictures in the shops, pictures for every race and pro part in the catalogs, and all seven DIY mini-game scenes redrawn (with a proper curved brake caliper).
- Clone parts: Toba-Kaki copies of every performance part at Speed Zone Mart - half the price and a bit weaker, they wear the engine harder and can break.
- Fuel economy per bike: fuel-injected bikes are about 15% thriftier, small scooters a little more, 2-strokes and tuned engines drink more, and flying saves a bit at speed. Every bike shows its km/L and tank range.
- Fly (was "Superman"): lying flat at speed now really pays - a bit quicker and 2-3 km/h more top speed.
- New menu: a tile menu with Inventory, Eat & drink and Unstuck (moves you and your bike to the nearest road, once every 30 minutes). The eat / drink button left the HUD.
- Fixes: the bike headlight lights up the road again at night; a parked bike no longer creeps down hills.
- PC: fullscreen by default, a Fullscreen / Windowed option in Settings, and the window can be resized and maximised.
1.7.1
Closed / internal testing- Every bike has its own box (scooters the biggest), plus carriers: rack, top box and delivery box. Cargo adds weight.
- New HUD: player info beside the minimap, energy and stomach as thin bars on the minimap ring, an arch speedometer with a fuel gauge.
- 1st or 3rd person riding view (Settings).
- Fixes: walking to a seat and sitting down at the restaurant, the map's back button on phones, graphics on some phones.
1.7.0
First Google Play internal test- Bamboo Town - a whole new map: hills, a roundabout, a hill road with a lookout, an elevated expressway, parks, a theme park and new tracks (ring, downtown, Bukit, flyover, scramble, drag strip).
- Real-time energy and a stomach: sleep is gone - rest on benches, at the restaurant or at home; food fills you up and digests over time; one energy drink an hour.
- Supermarket and a 24-hour shop with snacks and drinks; bag slots and home storage.
- Clothes, helmet and shoe shops are now separate.
- New package for Google Play, and the developer credit in the menu.
1.6.0
Test build- Swappable performance parts with real character, a parts box per bike, fitting at home or at the shop.
- Carb jetting and ECU fuel trims; spark-plug reading at home and an exact dyno at the pro shop.
- A real CVT for scooters, per-bike engine voices and exhaust sounds.
- In-game guide and a skippable tutorial; new showroom and petrol forecourt shop fronts.
Planned
Ideas we're working towards - no dates, things may change- Accounts & cloud saves - sign in and your progress follows you between phone and PC; you can delete your account in the game at any time.
- Online multiplayer - ride with friends over the internet, Android and PC together.
- Cop chases - the police chase reckless riders; get caught and pay a fine, and if unpaid fines pile up your bike gets seized.
- The underground - shady dealers in hidden spots sell illegal stimulants: energy without filling your stomach, side effects if you overdo it (treated at a new hospital), and you lose them if the police or a roadblock catch you.
- New jobs: IT Support, IT Engineer, Onsite Electrician, Electrical Officer.
- Factory worker - assembly-line mini-games in several factories, each in a different field.
- More places and content around Bamboo Town.
- More polish from tester feedback.
