Sumo Cars 2's development has been facing some technical difficulties with the editor, however, the issue is now resolved.

Development is continuing, and we are hoping to get an update out by new year's. Stay tuned!

Merry Christmas everyone, and have a wonderful holiday.

From UGG. :)

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! :)

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. :)

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! :)

Another snippet from development, back when update 0.3.2 was brewing. Maybe a little bit too much light?! :D

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.
