Last update (for now)'s changelog is in the article below!

Thanks for playing.

We are launching a fundraiser to get Sumo Cars 2 published on Steam! The price for the license is 100€, however with 10 people giving 10€, it doesn't sound that impossible!

Donating will of course get you very well-credited!

These images describe the soul of Sumo Cars 2 perfectly. Chaotic, wacky, and fun!

The Alpha 0.3.3 update is planned to hopefully release by the end of August. Stay tuned!

Oh, and if you find these screenshots cool, please check out the game! Thank you. :)

Happy #WIPWednesday!

Good news!

Development is slowly resuming. We're now simply more busy than we used to be for years, so development will still likely be a little slower, but it's once again underway.

Have a screenshot of us having fun testing the new developer console! :)

A statement regarding Sumo Cars 2's development;

Very difficult times are upon me. I have my future on the line currently, and a very thin one at that. I am not ending development, but it may be a while till the next update. Please be patient, thank you.

The project isn't dead! We know we sound like a broken record by now, but there's been difficulties in the real world stopping true progress.

However, progress IS being made. Have a screenshot of the new WIP map! :)
