Mini Racer Car Shop Simulator News

Hi everyone,
In this devlog, we’re stepping away for a moment from gameplay content to talk about something just as important: performance optimization.

Thanks to all the feedback we received from players who tried the demo and prologue, we’ve been working hard to make the game run smoother, load faster, and feel better overall. These changes may not always be visible, but they make a real difference in how stable and comfortable the game feels.


[h2]What’s Been Optimized?[/h2]
Here are some of the key areas we’ve focused on:

• Improved data loading – Game data is now loaded more efficiently, helping reduce wait times and lower memory usage, especially when transitioning between scenes.
  
• Better data handling – We’ve optimized how background systems process data, minimizing small stutters and improving flow during gameplay.
  
• UI performance improvements – Complex UI elements have been optimized so they no longer interfere with core systems, even when multiple menus are active.
  
• Algorithm refinements – Several internal processes have been reworked to use less processing power, making gameplay smoother and more responsive.
  

The game also includes a Settings menu that lets players adjust the game’s performance based on their hardware. These options have been available since the beginning, and include:

• Quality settings – Adjust overall visual quality
  
• Max FPS – Set the frame rate cap to suit your device
  
• Anti-aliasing – Toggle smoothing options for sharper visuals
  
• VSync – Sync frame rate with monitor refresh rate to reduce screen tearing
  

These settings are useful whether you’re playing on a high-end setup or something more modest. Our goal is to make sure the game feels good to play across as many systems as possible.

All these improvements are designed to support a smoother and more reliable experience, from customizing your cars to managing your shop to racing on track. We want every part of the game to run efficiently so you can focus on playing, not waiting or tweaking constantly.


You can already feel some of these improvements in the latest Prologue version, and we’ll continue optimizing other parts of the game ahead of the full release.

Thanks for reading. We’ve got more devlogs lined up, focusing on other features and content you’ll see in the full game.

Hey everyone,
In today’s devlog, we want to give info that you will be encounter in the the full version of Mini Racer Car Shop Simulator regarding the spare part rebalancing.

Spare parts are central to how you improve your cars in the game. Whether you're aiming for better speed, sharper handling, or smarter AI performance, every upgrade counts. In the full release, we’ve made some key changes to how these parts work and how you unlock them and creating a more balanced and rewarding experience overall.


[h2]Spare Parts & What They Do[/h2]
Before we talk about the balancing changes, here’s a quick breakdown of how spare parts and performance stats work together:
[h3]Performance Stats:[/h3]

• Top Speed – maximum speed your car can reach
  
• Acceleration – how fast your car gets to top speed
  
• Handling – stability and control, to make better speed in turns
  
• AI Level – how smart your car is at choosing lanes and paths during races
  

[h3]Spare Part Categories:[/h3]

• Motor – increases Top Speed, perfect for long straights
  
• AI Engine – improves AI Level, helps your car make smarter decisions
  
• Suspension – boosts Handling, giving you better control in corners
  
• Turbo – raises Acceleration and Top Speed, ideal for fast recovery
  
• Rim & Tire – improves Handling, especially on technical tracks
  
• Chassis – enhances Acceleration, Handling, and Top Speed, offering balanced performance
  

Choosing the right combination of parts makes a huge difference, especially as races get more competitive later in the game.


[h2]What’s Changing in the Full Version?[/h2]
We’ve rebalanced two major things:

1. The effects of each spare part, to make every upgrade more meaningful
   
2. The unlock progression, so that parts become available gradually, encouraging better planning
   

Even with this structured progression, there are still chances to earn parts early. You might get a high quality part from a car box bonus, or win them by placing well in race events.

[h2]Custom Value and Selling Extras[/h2]
There’s more good news, by adding spare parts to a car not only improves performance but it also increases the car’s selling price. If you enjoy customizing cars for resale, this is a great way to earn extra income. And if you ever find yourself with spare parts you don’t need? No worries, you can sell excess parts directly. It's a useful way to turn leftovers into cash and fund your next upgrade or restock.


With these balancing changes, we’re aiming to make gameplay feel more strategic, where your choices in upgrading and selling really matter.

That’s it for now. We’ve got more devlogs on the way covering more contents and feature you will encounter in the full version of the game.

Hi everyone,
In this devlog, we’re introducing a feature that’s all about adding your personal touch: color customization for both your cars and store shelves.

As you build your collection and grow your shop, you’ll now have the option to change the colors of your cars and display shelves to better reflect your style. Whether you’re into clean monochrome builds or want to brighten up your shop with bold colors, this feature is here to help make your space feel more like your own.


This color system is purely visual—it doesn’t affect the car’s performance or shop functionality. It’s about making things look the way you want them to. Available colors include: Red, Yellow, Green, Blue, White, and Black. Whether you're lining up your cars in matching colors or mixing it up to show variety on your shelves, it's an easy way to give your shop and collection a unique identity.


To change colors, you’ll need to purchase a spray can through the Equipment menu on your tablet. Just pick the color you want, and your spray will be delivered shortly to the delivery area outside your shop.
Here’s how to use it:

1. Grab the spray from the delivery zone
   
2. Walk up to the item you want to recolor (car or shelf)
   
3. Aim the spray at the object and interact with it
   
4. Done—your color is instantly applied!
   

It’s simple, satisfying, and a nice way to make your car collections or shelves stand out as you progress.


That’s it for now. We’ve got more devlogs on the way covering more contents and feature you will encounter in the full version of the game.

Hi everyone!
Welcome to the devlog for Mini Racer Car Shop Simulator.

In this post, we want to give you a quick look at some of the content you’ll encounter as you progress through the game—especially the new car models coming to the shop. These are higher rarity cars (Level 4 and 5), which means they offer better performance and have a more striking look compared to the early-game models.


These cars will start showing up later in your journey and can be sold to customers or kept in your collection for racing. They’re designed to stand out with a more powerful build and a more aggressive design style—perfect for players who enjoy tuning and racing at a higher level.

[h2]Customization: The Core of the Game[/h2]
If you're new to the game: in Mini Racer Car Shop Simulator, every car that enters your collection can be customized using various spare parts. The goal is to improve the car’s stats so it performs better in test drives or actual races.


Here’s a quick rundown of the main parts you can modify:

• Chassis – improves acceleration, handling, and top speed
  
• Tires & Rims – improve handling
  
• Suspension – make proper boost for handling
  
• Turbo & Motor – for acceleration and top speed
  
• AI Engine – helps your car drive smarter during races
  

Each of these parts can be mixed and matched to suit your strategy—whether you’re aiming for straight-line speed or better control around tight corners.

[h2]From Shop to Track[/h2]
After customizing a car, you’ll have two choices:

• Test Drive it to see how it feels, or
  
• Join a competition and race for prize money
  

This loop of collecting, customizing, and racing is the heart of the game. And with the new high-rarity cars, there’s even more room to explore different builds and strategies.


That’s it for now. In upcoming devlogs, we’ll go deeper into more contents and feature you will encounter in the full version of the game.
