KENYA BUS SIMULATOR — MASTER APP
DEVELOPMENT PROMPT

1. MAIN CONCEPT Build a complete, original 3D Kenya Bus Simulator mobile/web game called KENYA BUS SIMULATOR. The game should be inspired by real Kenyan road travel but must use original graphics, models, sounds, branding and code. Do not copy copyrighted assets from existing bus simulator games. The game should contain: • A Kenya-inspired national road map • Major Kenyan towns and cities • Highways, rural roads, towns and urban areas • Kenyan-style buses and matatus • Bus stations • Passenger pickup and drop-off • Fuel system • Money/earnings system • Traffic • Weather • Day and night • Road signs • Speed limits • Police/checkpoint areas • Route selection • Bus upgrades • Driver progression The game must be optimized so it can run smoothly on Android phones.
2. KENYA MAP Create a large Kenya world/map containing major regions and cities. Include locations such as: Nairobi Mombasa Kisumu Nakuru Eldoret Thika Machakos Kitui Embu Meru Nyeri Nanyuki Naivasha Kericho Kakamega Bungoma Busia Kisii Migori Garissa Isiolo Marsabit Wajir Malindi Kilifi Voi Mariakani Lamu Namanga Loitokitok Taveta Narok Bomet Kajiado Lodwar Connect locations using realistic road networks. Use major highways as inspiration, including: A109 / Mombasa Road A104 A2 A3 A1 Nairobi–Nakuru road Nairobi–Namanga road Nairobi–Loitokitok road Nairobi–Thika road Mombasa–Malindi road Other important Kenyan routes. Do not claim that the game map is an exact GPS reproduction. Create an original game-world interpretation of Kenya.
3. JOURNEY TIME SYSTEM The real-world distances should be represented proportionally but compressed for gameplay. IMPORTANT: No single journey should take more than 60 real-world minutes of gameplay. Display estimated gameplay time before the player starts a route. Example: Nairobi → Mombasa Estimated gameplay time: 55 minutes Nairobi → Kisumu Estimated gameplay time: 50 minutes Nairobi → Nakuru Estimated gameplay time: 30 minutes Nairobi → Eldoret Estimated gameplay time: 45 minutes Nairobi → Loitokitok Estimated gameplay time: 40 minutes Mombasa → Malindi Estimated gameplay time: 25 minutes Nairobi → Naivasha Estimated gameplay time: 25 minutes Allow the system to calculate route time dynamically based on route length, road type and traffic. Never create a journey longer than 60 minutes.
4. BUS SYSTEM Create several original Kenyan-style buses. Example categories: • Economy Bus • City Bus • Long-Distance Coach • Premium Coach • VIP Coach • Matatu Each bus should have: • Maximum speed • Acceleration • Braking • Fuel capacity • Passenger capacity • Handling • Price • Upgrade levels Create an attractive bus selection garage. Players should be able to: • Buy buses • Select buses • Change paint/livery • Upgrade engines • Upgrade brakes • Upgrade tyres • Upgrade fuel capacity • Upgrade passenger capacity • Repair buses Use fictional bus company names rather than copying real companies.
5. PASSENGERS Create passengers who appear at bus stations and roadside stops. Passenger system:
6. Player arrives at station.
7. Bus stops inside the pickup area.
8. Passengers board.
9. Destination is assigned.
10. Player drives to destination.
11. Passengers leave the bus.
12. Player receives payment. Passenger satisfaction should depend on: • Safe driving • Speed • Smooth braking • Correct route • On-time arrival • Bus condition
13. MONEY SYSTEM Create an in-game currency called: KES Players earn KES from completed passenger journeys. Example: Short route: KES 1,000–5,000 Medium route: KES 5,000–15,000 Long route: KES 15,000–40,000 These are virtual game values only. Players can spend money on: • New buses • Fuel • Repairs • Upgrades • Paint • Garage expansion • Driver progression
14. FUEL SYSTEM Create a realistic but simple fuel system. Fuel decreases while driving. Add fuel stations around Kenya. When fuel is low: WARNING: “LOW FUEL” Allow the player to drive to a fuel station and refuel using in-game KES. Do not make fuel consumption so aggressive that the player is constantly forced to stop.
15. TRAFFIC Create Kenyan-style road traffic. Include: • Cars • Trucks • Buses • Matatus • Motorcycles • Tuk-tuks • Police vehicles Vehicles should follow traffic rules and lanes. Add: • Traffic lights • Roundabouts • Overtaking • Junctions • Pedestrian crossings • Traffic congestion Traffic density should change depending on location. Nairobi: HIGH traffic Mombasa: MEDIUM/HIGH traffic Major towns: MEDIUM traffic Rural roads: LOW traffic
16. ROAD ENVIRONMENTS Make different areas visually distinct. Nairobi Modern buildings Tall buildings Busy roads Traffic lights Large bus terminals Mombasa Coastal environment Palm trees Warm weather Urban roads Coastal scenery Kajiado / Loitokitok Mountains Open countryside Green landscapes Maasai-inspired environmental elements Mount Kilimanjaro visible from appropriate viewpoints where geographically appropriate Nakuru Highway environment Town centre Green surroundings Western Kenya Green vegetation Farms Small towns Rolling landscapes Northern Kenya Dry landscape Bushland Open roads Desert-like scenery Coastal Kenya Palm trees Sandy surroundings Tropical vegetation
17. WEATHER Add dynamic weather. Weather options: ■■ Sunny ■■ Rain ■■ Cloudy ■■ Fog Rain should affect: • Road visibility • Windshield appearance • Road grip • Traffic speed Add windshield wipers.
18. DAY AND NIGHT Create a dynamic day/night cycle. Morning Afternoon Evening Night At night: • Headlights work • Street lights appear in towns • Dashboard lights illuminate • Traffic becomes more visible through headlights
19. DRIVER CONTROLS Optimize controls for Android. Provide: STEERING WHEEL MODE BUTTON MODE TILT MODE Controls: Accelerator Brake Reverse Horn Indicators Headlights Wipers Camera Handbrake Make buttons large enough for mobile screens.
20. CAMERA Provide several camera views:
21. First-person driver's seat
22. Dashboard
23. Front exterior
24. Rear exterior
25. Side camera
26. Third-person follow camera Allow the player to switch cameras while driving.
27. BUS TERMINALS Create realistic virtual bus terminals. Each terminal should have: • Entrance • Parking bays • Passenger waiting area • Ticket area • Fuel station nearby where appropriate • Departure area • Arrival area The player must correctly park in the assigned bay.
28. ROUTE MENU Create a route-selection screen. Example: FROM: Nairobi TO: Mombasa DISTANCE: Game-scaled distance ESTIMATED TIME: 55 minutes PASSENGERS: 42 EXPECTED INCOME: KES 28,000 FUEL: 65% Then show: START JOURNEY
29. MISSIONS Create missions such as: “Transport 30 passengers from Nairobi to Nakuru.” “Complete a Mombasa route without damaging the bus.” “Drive from Nairobi to Loitokitok within the target time.” “Complete 5 journeys without a traffic violation.” “Earn KES 100,000.” “Reach Driver Level 10.”
30. DRIVER LEVELS Create progression: Level 1 — Beginner Level 2 — Learner Level 3 — City Driver Level 4 — Highway Driver Level 5 — Professional Level 6 — Long-Distance Driver Level 7 — Expert Level 8 — Master Driver Level 9 — VIP Driver Level 10 — Kenya Road Master Unlock new routes and buses as the player progresses.

37. MULTIPLAYER — FUTURE FEATURE Structure the code so multiplayer can be added later. Possible future features: • Online bus races • Convoys • Player-to-player bus companies • Online passenger routes • Leaderboards Do not make multiplayer mandatory for version 1.
38. ADMIN / DEVELOPMENT MODE Create a development/debug mode that allows the developer to: • Teleport to cities • Add virtual KES • Spawn buses • Test routes • Test weather • Test traffic • Test passengers • Change time • Reset player data Protect this mode so normal players cannot access it.
39. IMPORTANT DEVELOPMENT REQUIREMENT Do not build only a static mockup. Build a functional playable prototype. The first version must contain:
40. Main menu
41. Kenya map
42. At least 5 playable routes
43. At least 3 buses
44. Driving controls
45. Traffic
46. Passengers
47. Bus station
48. Fuel
49. Money
50. Route timer
51. Day/night
52. Basic weather
53. Save system
54. Garage
55. Mobile UI Start with a small playable map and then expand the Kenya map progressively.
56. FIRST PLAYABLE ROUTES For the first prototype, prioritize:
57. Nairobi → Nakuru
58. Nairobi → Mombasa
59. Nairobi → Kisumu
60. Nairobi → Loitokitok
61. Mombasa → Malindi After these work properly, add the remaining Kenyan routes.
62. IMPORTANT TIME LIMIT The game's route engine must automatically scale long-distance routes so that: MAXIMUM PLAYING TIME = 60 MINUTES PER JOURNEY. Show the estimated gameplay time before departure. Use route difficulty rather than simply making roads unrealistically short.
63. DEVELOPMENT APPROACH Build the project in stages. PHASE 1: Playable driving prototype. PHASE 2: Kenya map and major routes. PHASE 3: Passenger and economy systems. PHASE 4: Traffic and AI. PHASE 5: Weather and day/night. PHASE 6: Garage and bus upgrades. PHASE 7: Optimization. PHASE 8: Final Android build. After each phase, test the game before moving to the next phase. If a feature is too complex for the first version, implement a simple working version rather than leaving an empty placeholder. The final result should feel like an authentic Kenyan long-distance bus driving game, while remaining an original game with original assets and branding.
