Hello, medics! Troy here, back with this month’s developer blog for [b]Ambulance Life: A Paramedic Simulator[/b]! The development team has been hard at work on the latest progress stage, so we don’t have much to showcase from the game today. However, we’ve been poring over the incredible feedback from the playtest event earlier this month and I wanted to share some cool data with you! 📊 [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44771459/fd9e3a63ee08f7a7c9755187a4ad23c5780d0562.png[/img] [hr][/hr] [h3]Goal[/h3] This playtest served as a litmus test for the core gameplay experience. It was an important check-in with members of the community to ensure we were guiding the development in the right direction. Were we properly balancing realistic medical moments with fun and engaging gameplay? As it turns out, I think we found the magic formula! 🧪 [hr][/hr] [h3]Participants[/h3] The initial response to our invitation was overwhelming, with quadruple the amount of play-testers as we anticipated! We still couldn’t fit everyone, so I want to take a moment to thank all the awesome folks who participated and those of you who applied but didn’t quite make it through. ❤️ Fun fact: while [i][b]most[/b][/i] patients arrived at the hospital alive, 38% didn't quite make it and couldn't be saved! We're sure the playtest deadline made you nervous. You'll do better at launch!

There were, of course, technical hiccups and hardware battles forged—what would a technical alpha test be without them?! 🤭 It was particularly heart-warming to hear from fans of [b]Police Simulator: Patrol Officers[/b], who were impressed with the development improvements we’ve added to [b]Ambulance Life: A Paramedic Simulator[/b]. Thank you, Unreal Engine 5! 🦾🤖 On our side, we were impressed that 50% of the services our playtesters did ended with success! Some mishaps unfortunately happened, but they'll become rarer with experience!
