My Summer Car

MY SUMMER CAR is the ultimate car owning, building, fixing, tuning, maintenance AND permadeath life survival simulator. You start the game with hundreds of loose parts and assemble both car and engine. Not only you need to maintain your car, but yourself as well. Sausages, beer and sleeping will do just fine.

If everything goes well, you have a working car which you can use for various 1990's Finnish countryside summer activities. Basically doing stupid things under influence of alcohol. After you have gathered extra money from various random jobs, you can start to tune and upgrade the car with parts ordered via snail mail. You can turn the car into a obnoxious bass-boom disco machine.... or into a rally car to participate rally competitions... or just fix it into perfect factory condition. Of course car also needs to pass the inspection or you might get into trouble with police.

Ah, let's discuss it here, then.

That looks crap. What's the appeal?

I love janky survival crap car sims with permadeath that don't take themselves seriously.

What have I done

You know what you've done. I may find a way to repay in kind.

It's early days, of course, but there's already so much to love in My Summer Car, a delightfully wilfully abstruse puzzle of game where every car's a shitbox, where everyone is shit-faced and where there are three whole commands dedicated to swearing at passers-by. Like the Datsun-like at the heart of it all, it's more than a little rough around the edges, but you wouldn't really want it any other way.

To be fair, that Eurogamer write-up makes it sound great.

I'd love to try this but I know id enjoy it for about 2 hours then never bother again. Still a maybe though.

I spent 30 mins riding around in my work truck not finding anything at all, then crashed into a piece of scenery and died.

Well, that's crap.

I walked into the toilet, the door locked behind me. Then I shoved my head through the ceiling. And refused to die of either hunger or thirst. But am still stuck in the toilet.

You'll never get to play the game now.

I finally died of thirst. And then REALLY LOUD FINNISH MUSIC!!!!!

Which given I'd left it running in the background rather surprised me.

Just before you die, does it shout "FINNISH HIM!"?

Myp, I know you're tempted, but do not buy me "city car driving".

OK?
