My Summer Car recently received a sizeable new update, one that the developer hopes takes it just that little bit closer to the fully fleshed out version 1 release status.
The new update is a substantial one, potentially the largest released to My Summer Car so far during its 3 1/2 year history, some six months on from the last update deployed to the simulation back at the end of December 2019 (wasn't the world a different place back then..).
The developer has suggested this update could well be the final major build release for the game as development begins to wrap, however he confirmed that work is already underway on a sequel - My Winter Car!
Update Notes:
WARNING: This is big update, so prepare for some changes and make sure to re-adjust your game settings as they are reset.
