This game is insanely addicting! I spent way too much time building vehicles and testing them; always trying to make them better. It may not be for everyone, but to whoever has an interest in engineering and like to think logistically, 100% Recommend!

I've always been looking for a game where you can create vehicles from scratch, this game goes above and beyond, not only can you build vehicles, you can build whole engines down from the pistons to the firing order, to the output shaft it lets you build transmissions gear by gear, fantastic game. It took me 12 hours to build a simple rear wheel drive car with a steering rack and suspension. This game is definitely worth the 15$, Absolutely fantastic work from the developer.

The graphical quality? Basic. The learning curve? You might as well call it a cliff. The fun? Off the charts. I do have to say, however, that this game is not for those who lack neurons... BUUUUT if you're smart and have some free time, there are few better ways to spend it. UPDATE: It has been several weeks. It is very hard to avoid playing this game. I might just be addicted. HELP ME.

i really like the game, the engines are good but i have an idea that can actually improve them. you can add the engine simulator that AngeTheGreat made into the game to simulate actual engine sounds! i think that could be really cool.
