- SO LONG, EARLY ACCESS - 18 March 2021
Hey everybody, So, this is it. We're finally out of Early Access with Build #6402082 It's been quite a ride, hasn't it? I'm not gonna lie, we would have loved to spend much less time in Early Access – maybe even releasing our couch-coop game during a time where people can actually meet. It took us a lot longer than we expected, but in the end, we're super happy with how the game turned out. Just think where we started. This is what the game looked like when it was greenlit: That gif isn't even slowed down. LOOK HOW SLOW THAT WAS! After the game jam version was greenlit, we worked on the game a bunch, and this is what eventually kicked off our Early Access: A lot prettier, and a faster than the previous version. Here's where we introduced the Monster Truck that would eventually become the trademark – but there was still so much missing. When you compare it to what we're launching today..…
- WE HAVE A RELEASE DATE - 25 February 2021
Hey everybody, I can't tell you how happy we are to finally say this: WE'RE OFFICIALLY LEAVING EARLY ACCESS ON MARCH 19! The game you've been playing is almost feature-complete, but that's not to say a few things aren't still missing! Today's update (Build #6282173) adds accessibility! It's important to us that everybody can enjoy our games. Some of you may remember us adding a colorblind mode to our previous title ChromaGun, which was entirely based on colors. It's unfair to marginalize a group of players, just because they can't play a game the way we do. So, today we're adding two accessibility features to remedy the two main issues players have been having with Can't Drive This. Colorblind-Friendly Ghosts We've heard that some colorblind players have trouble distinguishing the tiles' ghosts from the background. That's why we added the option to change its color to either blue (defau…
- Leaderboard & Bragging Rights - 13 January 2021
Hey everybody, we hope you made it through the holidays and the new year well! We're getting close to finishing up, and are marching full team ahead towards the full release of Can't Drive This. As such, we prepared a new update for you of course, with Build #6050491. As of today, you can finally earn your bragging rights in our brand new shiny Leaderboard!

So find yourself a builder or a driver, and get your names up on that wall! The leaderboard is located in the main menu. As usual, here's a fine selection of bugfixes: Fixes an issue where the game sometimes crashed when not connected to the internet Fixes a bug where the tutorials wouldn't play any sound Adds additional missing credits Fixes a bug where UI would disappear off-scree…
- Can't Understand This - 10 December 2020
Bienvenidos à este anuncio! We've been working hard on this one, for all you international drivers and builders out there. Today, we added language support for fourteen languages to Can't Drive This in Build #5944431. That means every single written word in the game is now available in the following languages (in no particular order): English Deutsch Français Español Русский 日本人 한국어 Portugues do Brasil ไทย 简体中文 Polskie Italiano Türkçe Svenska We hope we did a good job, we worked with a multitude of talented professionals – but sometimes, things get mixed up. So if you find something that doesn't sound quite right, or just outright wrong, please tell us on the forums, so we can fix it. :) And as usual, here's an exquisite selection of squashed bugs and added features: Fixed an error where a random cursor was visible when starting to play Adds missing credits Fixed an issue where the game…
- Single Player Now Online - 5 November 2020
Hey all, just a short update – something went wrong with the Single Player update, and there's no way to find out who's fault it was*. But the problem was fixed, and the update is NOW available. For real this time. * It was me, I forgot to press the button...
- New Mode: True Single Player! - 4 November 2020
Playing a multiplayer game alone? Welcome to the future! Eons and eons ago, we released Can't Drive This as a purely multiplayer experience. Naturally, y'all got inventive and started playing the game alone, wrinkling your brains and pushing your hand-eye-coordination (and the parallelism of your sight lines) to the limits. Well, wrinkle no more. In Build #5782603, we're super excited to introduce LONE RACER. Lone Racer is our brand new full-fledged single player mode. Alternate between driving and building, all under the torment of a vicious new super-villain, the TIMER. (It's just a timer, really) Build the road as you usually would. When you're finished building, press the SWAP button*. You'll instantly take over the role of the driver, driving along the route that you just built. "Just driving along a prebuilt road? I CAN drive this", you might say. That's why your building is recor…
- With Hats, Customization is Now Complete! - 17 September 2020
Hey everyone! with the today's update (Build #5552302), we added hats for your cars. That means, player customization is now complete! So as a driver, you can now customize: Primary Paint Secondary Paint Pattern Hats / Side & Top Attachments Spoilers / Rear Attachments Noses / Front Attachments And as the builder, you get to customize: Asphalt Paint Primary Boundary Color Secondary Boundary Color If you missed it, here's a short refresher on how to unlock customization items: Perform tricks to increase your UNLOCK-O-METER. As the driver, you can do flips, jump through fiery rings or narrowly avoid moving obstacles (like the hammer, steamroller, etc.). As the builder, you have to build tiles in the very last second, *just* in time for the driver to land on it. Do five of any of these in one round, and you'll unlock a new random item! As usual, we've been scouring the game for bugs and gl…
- Put Your Paint on the Pavement! - 3 September 2020
Hey everyone! We're back with another update, and another customization option! Here's what's new in Build #5498244 We finally added customizable asphalt colors to the customization menu! So now, when playing as the builder, you can build with style! Of course, if you've already unlocked asphalts in previous rounds, you'll be able to instantly equip them as of right now. Now, go shine! As usual, there are a bunch of fixes and minor features that we added, and here's a carefully curated selection of some of them: Fixes an issue where joining a game would sometimes crash the game Now displays control hints before first interaction Fixes a bug where players can become scrambled during frame selection Increases size of input icons Adds analytics Restructures crew menu to display vehicle ghosts in menu Fixes a bug where pausing while falling backwards would break the pause menu Fixes an issu…
- Spoiler Alert: Spoilers! - 17 August 2020
Good news everyone! We've been working on something for all you drivers out there, so let's get right into Build #5365520. This update finally adds spoilers for you to slap on the back of your trucks. Attach them in the customization menu after unlocking them. And here's the real beauty of it: If you've played Can't Drive This before, and unlocked a few items, chances are you already own some spoilers! Because of how we implemented the unlock system, you've been unlocking items that didn't even exist up until now, and the more items we add, the more items you automatically get. And as usual, here are a few of the bugs we fixed in this build: Fixed an issue where the game crashed when you exploded after being invited Moved the “press to join" buttons for better legibility Fixed an issue where flips were incorrectly registered after respawning More reliable synchronization between host an…
- Early Game Features, Unlock-O-Meter, and More - 16 July 2020
Hey everyone, time for another update! Build #5296914 brings a few very noticeable updates, so here's what's what: Yardage Start We've gotten a bunch of reports saying the game is too hard right from the start, so we decided to change the start tile in Yardage. The start tile is no longer a boosted ramp, but instead just a double straight tile. This means you get to start the game at your pace, and aren't forced to go full-speed ahead right from the start. Additionally, Yardage is now much more forgiving at the start. If you don't start driving immediately, you don't explode. In fact, you can completely stop on the start-tile without exploding. The farther you drive, the faster you have to be to not explode. Tutorials In addition to making Yardage easier for new players, we added tutorials to teach you all the things you might not know about. You can find them in the SETTINGS MENU!!!! (…
- Unlockables Are Here! - 12 June 2020
Hey all, we're back with a new update this week! So let's jump right into the novel sensation that is Build #5156201. We know you've been waiting for this for a while: You can now finally unlock customization items! Tricks and stunts no longer add bonus points – instead, they unlock items. Perform 10 tricks in a single session to unlock a new item. Any combination of tricks or stunts will do. Here's a list: FLIP (Do a flip) HOOPED (Jump through a fire ring) NEAR MISS (Narrowly avoid hitting a moving obstacle) CLOSE CALL (Build a tile *just* in time to save the driver) As of now, the only available customization parts are paints, patterns, and noses (read below). You will however be able to unlock every type of customization – even if you can't equip or even see them yet. You'll be able to use them, once they're added in a future update. The third customization slot is now available: Nos…
- New 2-Player Mode: GAME OF DRONES - 20 May 2020
Hey everyone, firstly, thank you all for the amazing feedback you've provided on the Forums and on Discord. We're continuing to add fancy new stuff to Can't Drive This, and this update (Build #5054550) is no different. Last update brought you Capture the Egg, a 4-Player competitive mode. We realize, of course, that in times of a pandemic and social distancing, a local-only 4P mode is less than optimal. Not everybody has the luxury and/or misfortune of having three roommates to play with. So for all those of you who are isolated, and in desperate need of yelling at friends, we present... Game of Drones is a brand-new cooperative mode for 2-4 players. In a finite square stage, collect all holos to complete a level. But beware the drone – it haunts you and drops EMP mines that temporarily disable your controls when you drive too close. https://media.giphy.com/media/ViBff7uEd0rWtaj3k0/giphy…
- Capture the Flag & Classic Controls - 1 May 2020
We have a LOT to cover for this update, people, so no beating around the bush. Here's what's new in Build #4966306: Capture the Egg This update brings you the first new game mode: Capture the Egg. It's like a classic round of good ol' Capture the Flag. But instead of people, there are Monster Trucks. And instead of Flags, there are 600 POUND CONCRETE EGGS! https://media.giphy.com/media/ekRanClx6L4CTUeeWE/giphy.gif In this frantic four-player* mode, a team of one builder and one driver make their way to the opposing team's base. There, you'll find the other team's delicious** egg. Collect the egg, and drag it back to your own base. That would be simple if there weren't a few obstacles, like... - You still can fall off the track. - The egg pure concrete, and will slow you down - Also, you still explode when you go too slow - The egg will get stuck in places, stopping you dead in your trac…
- April Update #2 - 16 April 2020
We've got a brand new batch of update-sauce for all you drivers and builders out there. Here's what's new in Build #4904705: Performance Improvements We worked hard on getting the game running on as many devices as possible. Over the past few weeks, we sifted through the entire game like gold panners, hunting those precious performance nuggets. Then we separated the dirt, and rocks, and the remaining alluvial deposits, melted the pure separated performance in a melting pot, and poured it into a mold, to get the shiny new update that you can download right now. Reduced Polygon Count In all seriousness, we reduced the polycount of most of the models in the game. Overall, we're now rendering about 40-60% less polygons than before. This means less strain on your CPU for sending data over to the GPU, and less strain on the GPU for actually converting the data into a visible image. Faster Ren…
- WE'RE BACK BABY - 2 April 2020
Hey everyone, Remember all those times we told you that we're working on a big update, and we just needed some more time? Well, guess what... https://media.giphy.com/media/3iUMl1Fh6HRew/giphy.gif We just uploaded the New Can't Drive This, and it's ready for you to play. We know you've been waiting for this for a long time, so let us just start by saying thank you, for sticking with us. So, what's new What did we change? Well, pretty much everything. Every line of code has been improved or rewritten. Every model has been replaced with a prettier model. Every physics glitch has been patched with a funnier physics glitch. Here are just a few major changes we made: Entirely new vehicle physics. Your vehicle is now a lot more fun to drive – no more frustrating moments when the car just doesn't behave the way you expect it to. https://media.giphy.com/media/RLEc4jD6cnNiVyHU0n/giphy.gif New, pr…
