Hospital Update

New app icon

The **Hospital Update** was released on December 12, 2023. It added a Paramedic and a Doctor jobs, the Hospital, a Health Meter for Sasquatch, and an Ambulance vehicle. It also made pedestrians and Sasquatch fall when hit by vehicles.

It is the first part of the planned Emergency Services update, while the second part is postponed for a later date as the Firefighter Update.

## Sneak peeks

### Reddit

#### Traffic Trouble

A sneak peek video was posted in the Sneaky Sasquatch subreddit on June 21, 2023. In this video, Sasquatch wanders on the Highway, and gets hit by passing cars, and falls with rag doll physics effects. Before this update, cars just pushed Sasquatch (this could be exploited in the last and the longest of the 12 Rabbit's Running Races). Being hit by cars will probably be one of the reasons for people to require medical assistance (shown in the next sneak peek video).

#### Hospital

A larger sneak peek video was released on September 22, 2023. In this video, Sasquatch is shown dressed in a yellow firefighter outfit, with a red firefighter helmet, and a small, yellow air tank, different to the Oxygen Tank of the Scuba Disguise. Sasquatch transports the Driving Instructor to the hospital in an Ambulance, then wanders with him in tow on a gurney around the hospital. Eventually, Sasquatch brings the gurney to the Operating Room, talks to the surgeon, and marks the areas on patient's body for the surgery with a red marker. After the surgery, Sasquatch puts the Driving Instructor back on the gurney and takes him outside, leaving him on the road, where the gurney is hit by a car. A glimpse of a Fire Truck can be seen in the end. The following hospital rooms which were shown: Registration, Diagnosis, Pharmacy, Lab, Operating Room, X-Ray, Cardiology, Recovery.

### Discord

These sneak peek images were only posted in the official Sneaky Sasquatch Discord server. Some of them are extremely close up, so it's hard to tell what is depicted until after the release.

* June 28 - a screenshot from the development software, showing two Dirt Bike near an area labeled "Safe Zone". It seems to be located in the Testing Area which currently can't be entered by normal players.
* July 22 - some blue, red and yellow objects (possibly some hospital equipment).
* July 24 - some round red, grey, and black object (possibly the tip of the fire truck nozzle).
* August 3 - the center of a Star of Life (an ambulance symbol).
* August 22 - A small closeup picture of what appears to be a gurney wheel.
* November 20 - Sasquatch in a Doctor Outfit (glasses, a white lab coat, and a stethoscope).
* December 2 - Sasquatch near a broadleaf tree with a round crown, similar to the decorative trees in Town and the Strip Mall.
