Good day! We're happy to announce that we're finally ready to release the game in Early Access on Steam! This will happen on November 3, 2025. The game will be released in version 0.7+ and will feature a playable and full-fledged gameplay experience, but a number of aspects will still be significantly improved. These include the user interface, graphics and textures, performance optimizations, AI and vehicle behavior, as well as vehicle customization and fine-tuning. Please be patient and don't expect miracles from our small studio right away.
We also want to share: as part of the Steam Game Festival "Games Will Be 2025," our game will be available in a demo version (early 0.7) from October 13 to October 22. Everyone will be able to try the game out for themselves and share their thoughts! We welcome your feedback and will do our best to incorporate it into the future.
