Underground Garage News

Hey!

Today's development diary will be a bit different than usual. As you probably know, we have started to promote our game more strongly now. Both among you, players and publishers, as well as among the press. And we came across a problem in the form that our game has a too similar name to the Need For Speed Underground series. This is probably obvious to you, we were a bit blind to it, and we got used to the name.

We don't want our game to be treated as competition for the legendary NFS series. Mainly because our game is primarily about being a car mechanic. It focuses on tuning, with driving and racing opportunities. We are not a game for fans of specifically racing games. Of course, we welcome all NFS fans who would like to play in the same atmosphere, but we don't want to challenge Need For Speed Underground.


Therefore - we invite you to vote on a new name!

Our suggestions from which you can choose are:

• Street Cred Garage
  
• Midnight Street Garage
  
• Outlawed Garage
  
• Street Tuning Garage
  
• Auto Tuning Garage
  
• Extreme Motorcar Garage
  
• Nitro Tuning Garage
  
• Custom Tuning Garage
  
• Turbo Tuning Garage
  
• Car Club Garage
  
• Outlawed Garage
  

Write in the comments which name you like best!ːsteamhappyː

REQUEST ACCESS on the page on Steam.


In the meantime, we are constantly working on new game features and improvements for the testing. Today, we are adding the car driving fixes to the test version, as well as preparing something you have been asking and waiting for - DESTROYS! 🔥

Right now we have the parts dents and scratches ready to go - for the final version we'll be adding more falling off parts like bumpers and mirrors and breaking glass.

Brace Yourself, it's getting closer!

Hey!

After we grant you a key you will see the game in your Steam library as Underground Garage Playtest.

The version of the game you can currently play is the Alpha version, meaning it is an early developer version. The final game will be nicer and work better :)

Please report bugs in the game here: https://steamcommunity.com/app/1452250/discussions/0/3051736373888786472/

We request again to remember that this is an early Alpha version and does not represent the quality of the final game. We believe that co-creating the game with players and basing the production on your feedback will help us make a better game, which is why we are making it available so early. If you think it's a bit early for you to test, don't worry - there will be further testing on a polished version!
