Capture the Flag Classic Controls
This update brings you the first new game mode: Capture the Egg. It's like a classic round of good ol' Capture the Flag. But instead of people, there are Monster Trucks. And instead of Flags, there are 600 POUND CONCRETE EGGS!
In this frantic four-player* mode, a team of one builder and one driver make their way to the opposing team's base. There, you'll find the other team's delicious** egg. Collect the egg, and drag it back to your own base. That would be simple if there weren't a few obstacles, like... - You still can fall off the track. - The egg pure concrete, and will slow you down - Also, you still explode when you go too slow - The egg will get stuck in places, stopping you dead in your tracks - There's a whole other team that will make your life miserable Best of three rounds wins! *Can't Drive This supports up to two players online, so Capture the Egg is local only. **Tastes like victory
We heard a lot of feedback over the past weeks, and we're always listening. To prove it, we spent the past weeks bringing the old controls back into the New Can't Drive This! That means two things:
Something that a lot of you loved about the Legacy version, was the that you didn't need a controller to play multiplayer. Well, good news! If you don't have a controller, or don't want to use one, you can now play with mouse and keyboard again. Technically, this can also be used as a Single Player mode. While we're way too dumb to play our own game that way, it's perfect for training your multi tasking skills during quarantine!
Even though controller support was rudimentary at best in the Legacy version, many of you got it working and played with a a controller-mouse-combo. If you prefer building with the mouse, but drive better using a controller, this is now possible out of the box! An added bonus is, any local player can use the mouse to build, as long as there is only one builder.
As usual, you sent us a ton of bugs that needed fixing, and we got a few of those into this update as well. Take a look at a few of them:
We realize that due to the current situation, many people won't be able to play Capture the Egg the way it's meant to be played. This sucks hard, but we want to encourage you to stay safe and take advantage of Steam Remote Play Together, if you don't have four people to play with at home. Stay safe!

We have a LOT to cover for this update, people, so no beating around the bush. Here's what's new in Build #4966306:

Classic Controls
We heard a lot of feedback over the past weeks, and we're always listening. To prove it, we spent the past weeks bringing the old controls back into the New Can't Drive This! That means two things:
One Keyboard. One Mouse. Two Players!

Bugfixes
As usual, you sent us a ton of bugs that needed fixing, and we got a few of those into this update as well. Take a look at a few of them:
- Fixed messed up bloom in menu
- Fixed texture on ghost tiles (reported by Paragon | Jocy)
- Driver icon is now visible on client (reported by Paragon | Jocy)
- Fixed controls menu after returning from game (reported by Paragon | Jocy)
- Makes sure boundaries don't stop at ~9000 points. (reported by Paragon | Janni)
- Improved performance even further
One Last Note

This sucks hard, but we want to encourage you to stay safe and take advantage of Steam Remote Play Together, if you don't have four people to play with at home. Stay safe!
HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND

"Can't Drive This"-Linux [374.36 M]
Drive your car WHILE your friend builds the road in front of you! Oh, and don't go below 20mph OR YOU'LL EXPLODE! Like in that Sandra Bullock movie, in which she kinda does the same thing, but on a bus. Also, she doesn't explode (Spoiler alert). Also, Keanu Reeves was in the movie.
*Not actually a gazillion parts. Not actually sure if gazillion is even a real number.
Co-Op Multiplayer Goodness
- Play local face-to-face couch co-op, with your best frenemy! Don't have two controllers? No worries, one keyboard and one mouse serves two players! Don't have keyboard and mouse? Well, that's weird. (Warning: Can't Drive This may cause you to erratically scream at your friend.)
- Or, if you don't have actual real-life friends, find some random internet-person to play! That's right, we've got cross-platform online multiplayer! Experience the joy of playing Can't Drive This without that annoying smelly friend next to you. You know who I'm talking about.
Customization!
Where's the fun in online multiplayer if there's no customization, you ask? You're very correct, which is why Can't Drive This features a gazillion* unlockable parts and a vehicle editor so you can show off your awesomeness to everybody on the interweb! But as we all know, only one player gets to drive a car at a time. The other player builds the track. That's why we also included a track editor! Create your custom track and have your friends race on a gold-plated yellow brick road, if you so wish!Feature List
