Hey, Gas Jockeys! ⛽
It’s time for another development update for our upcoming, brand-new DLC for Gas Station Simulator – Drive-In Cinema DLC. Last time we talked about what is Drive-In Cinema DLC and its own employees. If you somehow missed the last announcement, you can freely check it out right now by clicking this link.
Today, I want to walk you through some of the structures that are crucial to have a remarkable night in the cinema. That’s obviously a project and a popcorn machine. At the end of the announcement we will also talk a little bit about Drive-In Cinema’s renown, so stick with me till the end. Shall we begin then? 🤩

The Projector 🎥
First things first — every memorable outdoor movie night needs an old, good, and reliable projector. In the Drive-In Cinema DLC, the projector is your go-to tool. Here you can schedule the movies you want to show to your customers from a wide range of those available. You can decide when the showtimes start. Plan your nights around peak traffic hours or align them with special in-game events. Who doesn’t love a midnight horror marathon? 👻
The Popcorn Machine 🍿
No cinema experience is complete without a bucket of hot, buttery popcorn. That’s where the Popcorn Machine comes in! This nifty gadget doesn’t just add to the movie-watching ambiance; it also benefits you and your gas station in a couple of ways:
- Boost Your Gold Income 💰 – Serving popcorn to moviegoers gives you extra revenue. Customers love a tasty snack, so you’ll see a steady increase in profits.
- Increase Your Renown 📈 – Providing a great snack is part of delivering an excellent cinema experience. The more satisfied your customers are, the more they’ll spread the word about your drive-in cinema.
- More ways to deal with… Dennis! 😃 – That’s right! If you’re tired of that pesky Dennis messing around your station, you can easily turn your frustration into fun! Use the Popcorn Machine to grab a bucket or two and throw them at the Dennis dummy when it appears. It might just be the ultimate stress reliever or simply hilarious moment for you 🔥
Renown 🤩
In this DLC, your new Drive-In Cinema has its very own Renown mechanic. Think of it like a progress bar that reflects how popular your drive-in theater is. Every time a customer drives in to watch a movie (and hopefully buy some popcorn), your renown ticks up. The higher the renown, the better upgrades you’ll be able to unlock.
From improved projector settings which allows you to schedule more movies in advance, or an automatic tool that will help you keep the cinema clean – the more you invest in your drive-in cinema experience, the more it’ll pay off in both satisfaction and sweet, sweet profits.
Stay up-to-date 📰
