This is how I imagine every french canadian live their lives

mon osti d'bazou viens de chier dans pelle

easy start and not long drive to town

This game was basically made to create content on Youtube for other people to watch. It's an absolute chore to play, but I guess that's the gameplay loop. Being purposefully obtuse because lol Canada, here's maple syrup and poutine.

This game is one of the best I've played and I'm looking forward to new updates. Question to the developer: will there be any major update or are you on vacation?
From the suggestions.
1) Add straps to the pickup (load a full trunk with logs or put pots and secure them with straps)
2)Multicolored headlights
3) a car similar to the Dodge Chalenger (1967 or 2022).
4) A functional toilet
5)Apartment in the city
6)Fix the windows, when you look at the open car door from the street, the windows are not visible
7)Selection of speakers with music and a subwoofer

Edit - Incredibly F'ing boring simulator 2024. I can't with this game. So tedious and janky. No thanks.

I think I'll probably change my mind in a few hours but right now my first impressions are very negative:
* I shouldn't have to watch a 30 minute youtube video of some annoying streamer to figure out basic stuff like how to fill a gas-can. I understand not wanting a heavy annoying tutorial but having zero how-to or explanation for anything in addition to things being really unintuitive and finicky is insufferable.
* I'm over this cute "we're intentionally janky because it's so funny lol". It's lazy and cheap. I can pick up items but only rotate them in one direction so I can never set an item down in the orientation I want (yes I've used grid). Stuff bounces all over the place and clips through things all the time. IRL it's not hard to secure some items in a tray on a quad.
* I might not be a professional mechanic but I actually can carry more than one thing at a time, even without bags and belts. Why just the other day I fit like 5 screws in my hand - it was crazy. Yet this is impossible in the game - have to pick one thing up, carry it over, put it in place, get the tool, screw it down, put the tool down, go get another screw... seriously? Why not bind two keys for breath in and out.
* Maybe this makes me an ass but have English language support on the signs. That could not be more annoying.

So far it's a tedious, unintuitive, unpolished mess. I don't care about the basic textures, PS2 era lighting etc. I actually think that adds charm, but right now playing it is frustrating at best.

Dear Santa Goat Team,I hope this message finds you well. I am a huge fan of "Mon Bazou" and have thoroughly enjoyed the unique and immersive gameplay it offers. The blend of car mechanics, resource management, and open-world exploration set in a charming rural Canadian setting has made it one of my favorite games.I am writing to kindly request that you consider adding "Mon Bazou" to the GeForce Now cloud gaming service. The ability to play this game on various devices without the need for high-end hardware would significantly enhance the gaming experience for many players, including myself. GeForce Now's flexibility and convenience would allow even more gamers to discover and enjoy "Mon Bazou."Thank you for creating such a fantastic game. I hope you will consider this request, as it would make "Mon Bazou" accessible to a broader audience and provide existing fans with greater flexibility in how they play.Best regards,khaled

Reviewed 7/2/24: I HAVE NOT PATIENTS FOR STUPIDITY:
Angry is what i feel about this game for the fact that it makes you go through 20 minutes or more of steps to be done to even think about saving your game and this can only happen on the computer and the power is off so after all of that drive to town to turn the power on and with very poorly designed vehicles made to just annoy the player and this is how driving even slower then normal i went off the side due to the sharp turns that would required a lot more time wasted, so i quit and started over just to have the car get stuck right on the open road side in a dip that no car could possibly get stuck in a Poorly bug riddled map and would again have to waste more time walking back to get a tow due to such a bug or poorly made things just to hider game play. This game is not even realistic more so in the poorly design map and issue of how everything hiders your driving. Most game allow you to drive over the terrain made map with out so much restriction and issue and have fun doing it but not this game its more due to a poorly done map design.
There is other issue not even address in the review but
GETTING STUCK ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD DID IT FOR ME!

why would anyone pay to suffer from all these jankiness and constant insults from the developer? you must be a slave if you enjoyed and praised this game. god, what a pathetic phenomenon i am witnessing here.

u need to grind but very good
