My Summer Car Leaves Early Access
My Summer Car is an open world vehicle and life simulator for PC that has been in Steam Early Access since late 2016. The game lets players experience life in the games version of a Finnish Summer during the 1990’s. The main objective of the game is to not only survive a brutal world with permadeath but rebuild an entire car from more one hundred parts scattered around the property and the Finnish countryside.
Players are able to do different types of Summer jobs to earn money to order general supplies or even new parts for their car. Once the car is up and running players can then choose what to do with it, from turning it into a reliable farm car or perhaps even into a rally monster to compete in the local rally competition.
The game has been met with positive reception during its time in Early Access, known for its unforgiving and sometimes brutal permadeath mechanics and extremely detailed car assembly mechanics. This isn’t a casual game by any means and requires serious dedication or passion for cars to tackle the steep learning curve for finishing the game.
Luckily for fans of the game, the developer just announced that with the latest update the game is leaving Early Access into its official release. Developer Amistech Games has reassured players that official release doesn’t mean the end of support for the game with future patches and changes coming as necessary.
The latest update brings the following changes to the game:
- Made Police checkpoint areas safer
- Fixed a bug with inverted Handbrake button
- Added randomizer for Waste Well levels when receiving Truck keys
- Added a splat effect to the Helmet when getting hit by a Bee
- Attempt to improve Truck collision safety
- Highway AI cars now toggle between Hi and Lo beams at dark hours
- Added check and penalty for taking a “flying start” in Rally
- Added tire explosion sound and increased the volume of flat tire rolling
- Increased Moped fuel consumption
- Fixed bug with Teimo charging player for breaking windows even when Player is not around
- Fleetari will now take Ferndale and keys back if Player keeps it for too long
- Wasp can now come in if House doors are being kept open
- Pub door now closes and locks up automatically when Pub closes
- Fixed issue with Poker machine getting unattached when using the towing rope
- Added voice lines to Cousin
- Cousin might now end up as your cellmate
- Fixed bug with Pistons sometimes turning invisible at certain wear state
The developer is already hard at work on the sequel to My Summer Car, currently under active development under the title, My Winter Car. We’ll leave you to guess what that’s about.
