- Classic Racers was a perfect journey - 28 June 2023
Hi Racers ! First of all, thank you for giving Classic Racers a try. Thank you all for your good and honest evaluations. Thank you for all the love you've gave me. It was my fuel to continue making good and tasty racing games. Thank you all the haters or just the people who did not like the game. I have learnt a lot from you and it make me be stronger and a better game maker. It's been a long time since my last post. Things have evolved a lot. I've released 3 games for other companies and another one is in production. I have a heartache to say it, but now, Classic Racers need to be shutdown. The fact that the game is still alive and free starts to be a problem for the upcoming games. I have to make the choice and unplug the game. But wait ! This bad news is for a good one. Classic Racers Elite will be finally out on Steam soon. It's about a month or two... We're staying in touch and big…

- Incoming update ? - 15 January 2020
Hi folks, When the game was premium, you were around 2500 players. Now that it is free, you are near 10 000 ! That’s why i’m thinking at updating the game with a huge graphical improvement that i’ve made in my spare time. This big update improves the overall visual quality of the game by changing the lighting and shading technics to full PBS. And more... It improves the performances ! At the same time, i will integrate the most asked feature so far... The controls customization. :D One orher thing... It seems that you like the game. So, i will try to make a « donation DLC«. My work is your pleasure, so you could encourage me by giving what you think is the good price for this work. Please guys, give me your thoughts ! i need your « Thumbs up » to know if it’s worth the time to make it happen ! Keep Racing ! Loves you !
- It's over... - 15 October 2019
Hi Guys ! It's now about 7 monthes that the game is alive. I've put in it all my experience and love of cars and racing. But the sales were never sufficient regarding the time and efforts i've gave to you. You are now around 2500 racers and i'm gratefully thanking each one of you. But now, i have to move forward and i cannot go further if i'm still developing Classic Racers. Even if some of you loves it, i must admit that generally, this game interests nobody. I've tried to make deals with publishers but it was always the same answer: "It will interest nobody, it's too a -niche- genre". The cloud servers that manage connection and leaderboards will still be available until the end of the year. After, it will depend :D I will try to port it on consoles but i'm not optimist on the issue. :( The game will be free on Steam starting today. Keep Racing ! Love
