WE HAVE A RELEASE DATE
The game you've been playing is almost feature-complete, but that's not to say a few things aren't still missing! Today's update (Build #6282173) adds accessibility!
It's important to us that everybody can enjoy our games. Some of you may remember us adding a colorblind mode to our previous title ChromaGun, which was entirely based on colors. It's unfair to marginalize a group of players, just because they can't play a game the way we do. So, today we're adding two accessibility features to remedy the two main issues players have been having with Can't Drive This.
We've heard that some colorblind players have trouble distinguishing the tiles' ghosts from the background. That's why we added the option to change its color to either blue (default), red or green. Depending on the type of colorblindness you have, one of these should help set the ghost off from the background!
Can't Drive This, at its heart, is a game about chaotic communication between two players with two different points of view. Most of that chaos comes from the game's speed you can't drive too slowly, or you'll explode, giving you less time to think. Of course, some people are faster at articulating thoughts than others, and not all neural pathways transmit information at the same speed. Even just the concept of "fast" is very subjective. That's why we're now introducing Slow-Mode.
Regular Speed
Slow-Mode Activated While Slow-Mode is activated, scores won't be counted towards the global leaderboards. However, players with Slow-Mode enabled can still play online the player with the slowest setting in an online match sets the velocity the game will run at and Slow-Mode won't disable the collecting of achievements either.
This marks the second-to-last update before our last update on Launch day. You might be thinking "there are still two fundamental features missing!" and yes, they will both be added to the game, once we leave early access on March 19:
Can't Drive This is not just great with friends, but also to make new ones! ...and then immediately ruin that friendship, because that's just how this game works apparently. The full release will finally unlock the Matchmaking feature, allowing you to play with random people all over the world.
What's a game without some meta-game around it, right? We added 41 achievements for you to unlock after Launch Day. A few are easy to get, a few are tough, a few are plain funny, and all will reward you handsomely for sticking with the game! We'll be posting a longer announcement on Launch Day, so I'll keep this one short and simple. See you all on March 19th!

We're Almost There

"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
