Hello, scrappers! We are adding another change to our game, be sure to check out the bidding mechanics in the pawnshop - all suggestions are welcome.


As you can see, we are constantly updating our early access game.
We still have a few updates ahead of us, so we know you're waiting for more cars to be restored and the ability to drive them - we're working on it. We are also working on further optimization of the game code so that each of you can enjoy the game.
