Thank you to everyone who participated in the latest community vote!

Special customers won with 142,287 votes. Drivers came in second at 125,314 votes, and police improvements was a close third at 117,677.

This update will introduce several travelling customer groups, such as:

•
Bikers

•
Businessmen

•
Hippies

•
Party bus

•
Rock band

Each group will have one or two preferred drug types, which they will purchase in large quantities whenever they're in town. This will provide a fast method of offloading bulk quantities of product, albeit at a slightly lower profit margin. I think this will be a great addition and will add a lot more 'rhythm' to the gameplay.

This will be quite an art-heavy update, so we're expecting it to land in June-July. At the moment, we're working on gamepad support + Steam Deck certification, which should be done in about a month. Development for special customers will likely start in about 2 weeks.

Hi everyone,

The third community vote is now open! In the main menu, you'll be able to vote on what you want to see in the next major update. This time, the three options are:

Hireable Drivers

Driver employees who can transport items between your properties, businesses, and dealers.

Police Improvements

Dynamic police intensity, federal agents, outlaw status, and heavier consequences when caught.

Special Customers

Special customer groups (bikers, hippies, businessmen, etc.) who periodically visit town and buy large quantities of product.

The voting period will run for one week, and we'll announce the results shortly after that. You'll also be able to view the results in the main menu.

Thanks for reading,

Tyler

Additions

•
Added choice descriptions to the community vote panel.

Tweaks/Improvements

Hey everyone,

It's been a year (plus a few days) since Schedule I was released to early access! What a wild year it's been - I seriously couldn't have hoped for a warmer response. Thank you for taking the time out of your day to play our game.

As of 30th March 2026, Schedule I has been collectively played for 17,846,608,208 minutes. That's over 33,954 years. It's humbling to think that much time has been spent playing something I created.

We wanted to put out a small update in celebration of the anniversary. We've only had about a week to put this together, so it isn't huge, but we've included a few things I know people have been wanting for a while. I hope you enjoy!

Hi everyone,

We're doing a Cranky Frank plush with YouTooz. It's available to order for the next 30 days.

Just like our last collab with YouTooz, 100% of TVGS's share of revenue will be donated to charity: SSDP Australia (Students for Sensible Drug Policy).

We're also working on an update for the Schedule I's 1st anniversary. It should be ready to go in the next day or two.

Thanks for reading,

Tyler

Hi everyone,

The weather update is now fully released! There are several new weather conditions that can occur at random throughout the day. This update is one I've been excited about for ages - I think it adds a ton of life and atmosphere to Hyland Point.

We've worked really hard on optimisation for this update - the new weather system has almost zero performance impact, even during the most visually complex effects. We've also made a number of rendering optimisations to existing parts of the game. In our testing, FPS seems to be 5-10% higher compared to the previous version of the game.

•
Fixed frame spike when the first vehicle pathfinding calculation occurs.

I mentioned in my last post that there would be a lot of code refactoring happening in this update. My initial plan was to do a big round of refactoring now, and then do official mod support later this year. I quickly learnt that mod support is a massive influence on code architecture. If I had done a big refactor now without proper consideration for modding, I'd end up having to do an equally large rewrite in just a few months.

For this reason, I've decided to stagger the refactor over several updates in the first half of the year instead of doing it all at once. As each major game system is rebuilt and cleaned up, it will also simultaneously be prepared for mod support. This means that when we do enable mod support, it will be a much faster and seamless process.

Stay tuned!

Always nice to see an indie success story, with Schedule I developer TVGS expanding the team as work goes on towards mod support.

Read the full article here: https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2026/01/developer-of-popular-drug-dealing-sim-schedule-i-expands-thanks-to-the-success/

Hey everyone,

I'm back to work, and have some exciting news - TVGS is now an actual game studio! We've got an office in Sydney, and a new developer, Rob, who has just started. We're also in the process of recruiting a 3D/technical artist. By the end of the year, there will likely be 4 people working on Schedule I.

I want to say a big thank you to everyone who has played Schedule I - you're the reason I'm able to grow the team and work in this awesome space. I've had the opportunity to turn my hobby into a career and spend my days doing work that I genuinely enjoy. I'm truly thankful to each and every one of you for that.

Check out some photos of our cool new office:

It's a really nice space - pretty empty right now, but we're getting there.

We're going to put a ping pong (beer pong) table in the middle.

We've also got a pretty sweet collection of boxes.

Early 2026 Plan

We're going to release a patch next week focussed on bug fixing and QoL improvements. After that, the remainder of January is being dedicated to cleaning up the codebase and onboarding Rob (poor guy needs to catch up on 120k+ lines of code). This will be the final round of major refactoring and will leave the game in a strong position for future development. It's also a vital step towards proper mod support.

After that's done, we'll get to work on the next update, which we will leave as a surprise. I'm estimating it will be done in late February, but I've (finally) learnt my lesson from all of the delayed updates, and we'll only confirm a date once we're confident we'll hit it on time.

YouTooz Collaboration Extended

Our collaboration with YouTooz has been extended by a week. The last day to place an order will be January 13th. Grab yourself a Benji, Uncle Nelson, or Jessi before they're gone. Available here.

Thanks for reading. I hope you have an excellent year!

Hello everyone,

The shrooms update has been fully released! As always, thank you for your patience as this update was completed. You can now grow and sell magic mushrooms. The production process involves several new pieces of equipment and tools, and tasks. All steps of the production process can be assigned to botanists. Shrooms are introduced after meth, and before cocaine. The supplier for shroom supplies is in the downtown region.

There is also a new temperature system - you can use AC units to warm or cool an area, the latter being necessary for mushroom cultivation. Additionally, plant growth speed can be boosted by warm temperatures.

There are also a few new QoL improvements and handy features:

•
You can now rename stations, pots, storage racks, etc, using your management clipboard. This will make it much easier to distinguish different objects.

•
Cartel dealers will now take smoke breaks, making them easier to find and ambush.

•
Cleaners can now be assigned to 6 trash cans (up from 3).

•
You can now which between metric and imperial units. This setting should automatically default to the appropriate choice for your region.
