Patch 1.0.4. is now live
Read captured notes
Hey everyone! ๐ Another patch is now up on - mainly focused around one of the most oftenly shared critiques - the camera work! We greatly appreciate it and happy to share the list of all the new updates in 1.0.4.:Truckful 1.0.4. Patch Notes:Added Manual Camera Control: While driving, move the camera with the right stick on a gamepad, or with Numpad 4/6 (left/right) and Numpad 8/2 (up/down) on a keyboard. Left/right swings the camera around the truck, up to the view you'd get after turning around. Up/down raises the camera by up to 15ยฐ for a better look from above; it can't go lower than the default view. Press the right stick (R3) or Numpad 5 to go back to the automatic camera.Camera Reset: Your camera stays where you put it until you press R3/Numpad 5, turn the truck around (the camera then goes back to automatic) or return to the main menu.Fixed Camera: In some places the level sets a fixed camera view. There your manual setting is paused and the location's view is used. Once you leave the area, your setting comes back.Added Camera Mode Indicator: An icon next to the speedometer shows whether the camera is Automatic, Manual, or Manual but paused by the current location.Added option to replay the last story mission from the Journal: open the Journal, go to the Missions tab and select your most recently completed story mission. Press Y (gamepad) or R (keyboard), or click the Replay button, then confirm. You'll be taken to the start of that mission and it will begin again. If you're on another delivery, that delivery is cancelled. Replay isn't available while you're on a mission that can't be interrupted.Camouflage Talisman Rework: it's no longer a random roll at half the normal chance. Each time you pass a spot where a demon could appear, half of that spot's chance is added to a counter, and the demon only shows up once the counter goes over 100%. For example, on a route where the demon always appears, Camouflage now gives you two safe passes and the demon appears on the third. The counter resets when a demon appears and when you change location.Added Talisman Animations: the Camouflage and Runes buttons now show an animated magic wave when the talisman is working. For Camouflage, the wave plays for about 2 seconds each time it stops a demon from appearing. For Runes, the wave stays on while a demon is chasing you and the Runes are slowing it down.Lower scrap prices: Boost 5 โ 4, Snorkel 15 โ 10, Metal Detector 25 โ 18, Ram 40 โ 20, Howler 50 โ 25.Map shows scrap: Scrap that falls off your truck now has its own map icon, so you can tell it apart from lost packages.Demon Train: Train encounters on the railway were reworked so the train is easier to dodge or scare off with the Howler.Engines: the 75hp and 108hp engines had each other's 3D models. Each now shows its own.GPS hints: the tutorial hints about your position on the map were reworded. They now remind you that the red dot on the Journal map shows where you are.Journal cheat changed: open the Journal and quickly click or tap the pin on the right page 10 times, with less than 0.8 seconds between taps. A popup appears with three choices: $100, Scrap x100 or Nothing. The Scrap x100 option replaces the old "Go to Theresa" teleport.Visual fixes in the railway area.Further stability improvements when loading scenesFurther typos and translation errors in Turkish/Dutch etc. Jump on our Discord and here on Steam Discussions and let us know how you like these changes!December Content Update More patches are scheduled for this week as we're carefuly monitoring every feedback.

Community Update #14 - Frequently Asked Questions!
Read captured notes
Hi everyone ๐ Hope you're all good! We're gearing up towards launch on October 9th and here is a quick round of frequently asked questions (and our answers) to give you a better overview on Truckful. 15 Most Frequently Asked Questions about Truckful 1. So what is Truckful?Truckful is a single-player delivery adventure where you drive an old pickup truck through seemingly peaceful valleys, complete errands for villagers and gradually uncover the mystery surrounding a nearby ancient forest. It blends cozy exploration, physics-based cargo deliveries, and narrative adventure rather than being a traditional trucking simulator.2. Is it open world?Not quite. Truckful features a large interconnected valley with multiple regions, shortcuts, hidden roads, and exploration. Think of it as a semi-open world: new routes become accessible as your truck gains upgrades, encouraging discovery instead of one massive sandbox.3. How does cargo work?Every delivery is physics-driven. You manually pack items into your truck bed, and their shape, weight, and fragility matter. A stack of wooden crates behaves differently from a delicate porcelain vase, so careful loading is just as important as careful driving.4. Can I upgrade my pickup?Sure thing! Your truck evolves throughout the adventure with upgrades that improve performance and unlock new traversal possibilities, including:Increased cargo capacityBetter handling and mobilityCosmetic paint jobsSpecial equipment like boosters, sticky cargo, and water-crossing upgrade (snorkle)Functional improvements earned through exploration and missions5. What's the deal with the forest?The forest is the heart of the story. Local legends warn everyone to stay away, villagers talk about strange events and your deliveries slowly reveal what happened there. The mystery unfolds through characters, exploration, and environmental storytelling rather than jump-scare horror. 6. Is the Ghost Truck an enemy?Yes, however it's more of a recurring hazard to evade, rather than a boss to face. The Ghost Truck appears during certain sequences, creating tense chases and forcing quick decisions. Recent updates made these encounters less punishing: getting hit no longer immediately restarts the level and players can still pick up any lost cargo trying to escape the Ghost Truck. 7. Do I need to always drive carefully, or can I go full speed?Usually you can go for both - we encourage players to find their own rhytm and pick truck upgrades in whatever order they prefer. More speed helps with timed deliveries, but rough terrain, sharp turns, and bumps can send your cargo flying. The game constantly asks you to balance efficiency versus stability, making each route a small driving puzzle. 8. Who are the villagers?The valley is filled with memorable residents, including mechanics, scrapyard owners, bar hosts, hotel staff, and other mysterious locals to meet. We don't want to spill the beans on all of them and encourage players to get to know them better as they pack many stories about the countryside and its tangled history. They aren't just quest givers - they provide upgrades, reveal lore, and gradually connect the pieces of the larger mystery. 9. How scrap works and why should I collect it?Scrap is a second progression currency. Money comes from deliveries, scrap is earned by discovering abandoned machinery and recyclable objects scattered around the valley. Bring it to Red's Scrapyard to convert them into upgrade materials. 10. What kinds of environments will I drive through?Expect much more than simple country roads. Truckful will feature:Quiet townsDense forest areasMarshes, wetlands, swamps and other 'no-go' areasTunnels and cavesA ScrapyardDusty hills and other abandoned regionsEach region introduces different navigation challenges and hidden secrets - we want players to explore, rather than just uncheck a list of question marks scattered around the map. 11. What if I get lost?You can surely get lost and that's all good, as long as you keep your cargo and know how to use a handful of navigational help to use. Full game includes a 'multi-tool' notebook with a map, objectives tracker and found collectibles. There are also save shrines, making exploration much more intuitive while still rewarding curiosity. Hidden paths often lead to useful shortcuts or valuable discoveries as well - we want to give players comfort of getting lost and then finding the way again! 12. Can I customize the truck's appearance?Absolutely. Besides mechanical upgrades, you'll be able to repaint your pickup with multiple color options, with additional visual customization planned including ornaments and stickers. Your truck gradually becomes your own signature vehicle. 13. Is Truckful more relaxing or challenging?Most of the game feels cozy: scenic drives, friendly villagers, and satisfying deliveries. But difficult terrain, physics-based cargo, supernatural encounters, and environmental hazards create moments of genuine tension without turning the game into a demanding survival horror. Encounters with enemies are based on evasion (similar to Dredge) and our goal was to have the best of both worlds when it comes to gameplay difficulty.14. Can I run over the sheep or other animals?And the award for probably most repeated question goes to you guessed it!;D You won't be able to run over the sheep (or boars) but there is one specific upgrade allowing you to do almost that. We leave the rest to your discovery but its a pretty obvious one. 15. Will it run well on Steam Deck and lower-end PCs?We have specifically optimized performance for Linux-based handhelds and lower-end hardware, including the Steam Deck as we're all avid fans of Valve's device. We aim to have Truckful verified on launch but even if there's a hiccup with the green tick, you can expect a +40/60fps during most scenes. As for other lower-end devices, 30fps and high details should easily be achievable on specs mentioned in the official requirements section - we're always doing our best to support as many players as possible. That's it for now but feel free to post your own questions below in the comments - we're more than happy to reply, no spoilers of course! ๐ชJoin our Discord!Let's talk Truckful and the newest trailer on our Discord channel, join via link below!๐ https://discord.gg/e69WDgdbKW ๐ Watch Truckful's newest release date trailer here ๐ You can also share your thoughts and feedback in our Steam Discussions section here: https://steamcommunity.com/app/3090810/discussions/ ๐ฌLike Truckful?

Community Update #13 - Steam Playtest + Dev Update
Read captured notes
Hi everyone ๐Development UpdateFirst of all, we want to ensure everyone that development is going smooth and steady and we're aiming at a release around September/October. Truckful came a long way since the last demo and we can confirm that all content including levels, missions, dialogues, cargo types, truck upgrades, characters and their animations is complete. We're now focused on enriching the world with more details and testing cargo behavior to make sure physics are on point. What's new in the upcoming Playtest? A final Steam Playtest is expected to launch in August and will feature truckloads of improvements over the recent demo and if you played it during Next Fest, here is all that has been changed:Level DesignWe improved overall navigation through the countryside, played with new routes, shortcuts and got rid off some itchy blockades that made driving, turning around and going up/down the hill more fluid.Added CollectiblesTruckful will feature lots of different collectibles to find and while we can't yet disclose most of them, here is the example of a pop-up screen informing players about found pieces ๐Psst! I negotiated with our team like a pro and got them to share the spy-pigeon ๐๏ธImproved UI DesignWe improved all the interface elements you see on the main gameplay screen, packing view and in the garage, while doing upgrades and customisations. Truckful also got lots of introductory and tutorial pop-ups, alongside a full fledged notebook and map to help players navigate through missions and roads better. Speedometer also got a nice little update as it features a water level detector - quite useful while traversing watery surfaces like ponds, puddles or swamps. You will also need a Snorkle Upgrade for deep waters.Dialogue Windows We redesigned pretty basic initial dialogue windows and came up with much clearer and better looking box. Font is also changed to make reading easier on the eyes, together with an updated text speed-up. How it looked before?And how it looks now - we're very curious to hear your opinions on the new design!New, animated character cutoutsTo bring more life into our lovely bunch of characters, we're happy to share that each model will be animated. Here is one of the examples - the Police Chief with a ice cold 80s-like visor! ๐ New packing viewWe wanted to put more emphasis on the cargo itself and also better inform players about controls (show on the right side). You can now see the full vertical/horizontal grid and place the cargo wherever you want much easier.Join our Discord!Got some feedback, ideas, critique? Let's talk Truckful!

Community Update #12 - Red's Scrapyard
Read captured notes
Hi everyone ๐In this community update, we wanted to showcase one of the many locations you'll visit while exploring the mysterious countryside - The Scrapyard. Filled with metal debris and rusty skeletons of old vehicles that used to roam the place, the place is owned by Red.Meet Red Red is the host of The Scrapyard. He worked for the military during 1970s but was eventually dismissed after becoming involved questionable activities. After that, he took on whatever manual labor jobs he could find around the region and developed a reputation for scavenging abandoned materialsโold metal, railway parts, and other scrapโwhich he traded through his junkyard business.Red is among the very few people capable of navigating the forest routes leading to the western logistics center. Before the player's arrival in the Valley, he was known for transporting hard-to-obtain goods through these dangerous paths. Here he is, in all the cut-out png glory! New Screenshots from the ScrapyardScrap MachineCompleting missions will reward you with money but you can also earn other type of currency - scrap. Exploring the countryside, players will bump into different kinds of out-of-service equipment that can be recycled into scrap in Red's Scrapyard. See that big 'sewing machine' steel monster? Park at the red spot and turn your findings into value. Earned scrap can then be used to upgrade your pickup truck.Ride around the countrysideIn other news.. chickens arrive to the countryside!

Community Update #10 - Forest obstacles, shiny ripples, new character and more!
Read captured notes
Hello Fellow Truckers ๐๐We're back with another community update - issue no. 10! A lot of things happened during past 2 months and we just recently passed 100k Steam wishlists so we can't begin without a huge Thank You to everyone who supported us along the way ๐ This announcement is an all-rounder touching on all different kinds of stuff we've been working since the last update, among other things. From new menus and UI to locations, characters, gameplay elements and more. Let's dive in!New 'Notebook' MenuWe played a bit with the main menu screen and came up with an idea that will also have its extension in the gameplay - the ol' reliable paper notebook. It's not only a part of the menu, its also a part of the game and serves as your go-to spot for all quests, unlockables, characters, enemies glossary etc. First time the 'notebook' menu was seen in action was the most recently shared demo. Stay tuned for a much more refined version arriving during Next Fest in February 2026!Natural Obstacles in the ForestWe pay very close attention to all the forest areas - their variety, foliage, road signs, shrines and all the random events that occur while driving during the day and night. Since forest = nature, there will also be many types of natural obstacles to conquer. Below we're presenting couple examples like water logs, muddy puddles and wood debris scattered on the path: Updated ripples, reflections and shadowsYou may remember our earlier post where we showed the tech behind our stylised ripples and reflections - the 'indie raytracing'. We were super excited with the reception, saw that players enjoyed such presentation and continue to upgrade all these tiny details that add more life to the world of Truckful. Here is the most recent example - available in higher quality on X and we're not even done yet! Meet Mick! Truckful will feature a bunch of interesting characters players will meet and do errands for. Rotti and Grandma Theresa were revealed already but we're packing more and next in line is.. Mick! Owner of the Bar located in one of the towns, Mick is a laid-back, retired rockman with a knack for local politics as he settled in the valley and wants to improve the lives of local community - ofter getting dragged into bureaucracy shenanigans. Mick made his first big screen appearance in the recent Cozy Quest 2025 trailer, almost got run over but said it was cool, 10/10, would recommend. Playing with the garage UIWe're constantly tweaking user interface and here is an example of our recent journey to make it better. Our goal is to make truck upgrades, customisations and equipment selection as easy as possible and while its surely not the final stage, we like the look of these icons!

Community Update #9 - Exploring the rural countryside
Read captured notes
Hi everyone ๐We're back with another community update to shine a headlight on what's new in Truckful's development. This time, we're focusing on the rural outskirts of the strange countryside - its quirks, perks and many secrets to uncover. Buckle up, sit tight and lets dive in! Countryside overviewThe entire rural region lies within a valley surrounded by a dense, dangerous forest. Inside the valley, there are many fields, small paths, regular roads, a few towns, settlements, and facilities such as an abandoned school, a clinic, hotel etc. The fields and forested areas are fairly sunny, but there are clear signs of infrastructure decay: ruins of houses, wrecked cars, and occasionally abandoned military equipment left behind by the army can often be found.The entire area is covered by dense networks of railway lines, which have been rusting for decades โ along with them, numerous viaducts, railway tunnels, and freight stations. Players will also come across many mine shafts and underground shortcuts that run beneath the entire Valley.How to find your way around?Since our trusty pickup truck is not equipped with a fancy modern GPS, how do you find your way around the valley and forest areas? This is where road signs come along - your best friend, very helpful in exploration. Below are some of the models we're working on and please don't ask us to translate Zakuprze & Zadupie ๐ฌAbandoned Railroad GraveyardIn Truckful, countryside consists of locations connected by roads and paths - some of them are easy to traverse, other required special equipment. One of the locations hidden deeper within is the Abandoned Railroad Graveyard. Players will be able to drive through old rusty train wrecks, find clues and learn more about the its history.Ruins & GatewaysCountryside has many secrets and stories to tell. While exploring, players will bump into many interesting places and landmarks such as ruins, gateways and other peculiar structures. Gateways may lead to uncharted parts of the forest and there is only one way to find out what lies beyond.Natural OvergrowthApart from the dangers hiding in the forest, the valley is also filled with mystery - one of which is the natural overgrowth. Players will be given a task to discover its origin and see where it leads to. Driving on tree branches is surely challenging and you really don't want to loose all the cargo while being high above the tree branches.Traversable locationsIn Truckful, lots of the locations will be fully traversable with the pickup truck. For example, there is a School that you can not only drive around - you can actually drive into the school building and explore its interior - sometimes packed with treasures, field notes and things that explain the game's plot. Here is the early concept from the School: Floral DiversityWe're constantly updating forest foliage, adding more types of trees, grass, plants and vegetation. Below you can see some of the early examples of both deciduous & coniferous trees:In other news..

Read captured notes
Hey everyone ๐ During the weekend, we had a pleasure of taking part in Future Games Show at gamescom latam - a great indie games event focused on Latin America region. We presented Truckful's new gameplay based on the upcoming feature - mysterious underground passage connected by caves scattered around the countryside. Let's dive deeper into what lurks below the surface! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45117219/beb0d6e5b4e983439471602d8c7c0aee59fcab96.jpg Cave entrances As you will be exploring the countryside and fulfilling your delivery duties, you'll encounter cave entrances, often hidden around the sideroads and covered by branches. If entered, you will encounter old ruins, puzzling structures and many traversal challenges that will put your driving skills to the test. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45117219/731185438c908ef2bfb2390ca0ff03098f542079.jpg Underground passage Driving through underground can be quite challenging! Many obstacles will require upgrading the pickup truck with additional equipment such as the boost (showcased in the trailer!). The world below the surface is captivating and packs many cool details such as sun rays peaking through holes in the ground. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45117219/9c595a4ba00505ab603edd27c79d9a0ebe3c3237.jpg What's going on with these glowing footprints? You will encounter much more baffling evidence of a supernatural presence that is only visible with the UV light upgrade. Once installed, you'll be able to follow this mysterious trail.. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45117219/19b880138b6577a32a645ed7d48312f22275a416.jpg What is the true origin of these structures, what lurks underground? You will need to discover the mystery yourself, however town & countryside inhabitants will give you many hints and offer a background of their own experiences and stories shared.
