About
C.A.R.S. (Creating A Ridiculous Shitshow) is a chaotic, physics-driven sandbox where one mission rules them all: turn rush hour into a glorious disaster.
What’s the game about?
You play as a stubborn hoarder with questionable telekinetic powers and a grudge against the system. When the Department of Transportation steals your paradise, you fight back with whatever junk you can lift, toss, or stack. Tires, barrels, ramps, and… well, things get weird fast.
Plan by night. Wreck by day.
Build traps under the cover of darkness.
Watch the morning commute collapse into chaos.
Earn XP for every crash, flip, and chain reaction. Bigger mayhem = bigger rewards.
Too easy? We got you!
Want to stop cars like the alpha you are, go God Mode on that highway! Need a challenge, well then you got permadeath in Hardcore.

Progression? Oh, it gets wild.
Start small—roll a tire, drop a log. Level up and unlock tools that bend reality and physics in ways that would make Newton cry. No scripts, no limits—just emergent comedy and destruction.
If you love physics sandboxes, unpredictable traffic carnage, and sticking it to “The Man,” welcome home.
Night Planning, Morning Mayhem: Set up traps under the cover of darkness, then unleash chaos when the commuters roll in.
Physics-Driven Carnage: No scripts, no limits—every crash, flip, and chain reaction is emergent and unpredictable.
Telekinetic Trash Warfare: Lift, toss, and stack junk with a simple physics-handle system that’s easy to learn and stupidly fun.
Slow Motion: Want to feel like an action hero, well, dodging cars in slow motion will rub that itch!
Step into The Ring of Fire to supercharge your XP. The longer you stay, the faster you level up, but be warned: every car on the road wants to run you down while you're in it. How long can you hold your ground?
Progressive Madness: Start small with tires and logs, then unlock increasingly absurd tools that bend reality and defy physics.
Dumb Traffic AI: Vehicles obey momentum (and very few other rules), creating hilarious, chaotic collisions.
Atmospheric Day/Night Cycle: Calm nights for planning, explosive mornings for destruction.
C.A.R.S. uses large numbers of physics-driven vehicles and real-time destruction simulations. This intentional design makes the game more CPU-intensive than typical indie titles. Please ensure your system meets the minimum requirements for a smooth experience.

listing all pros and what i like about the game, then all the cons, then suggestions. I have played this game for 3 hours on a buddies PC before i decided to buy for myself. Pros: 1. Very fun to play 2. Car physics really do make some incredible crashes 3. some objects are really fun and quirky 4. The graphics are top notch, looks and feels great 5. Price is perfect Cons: 1. super unpolished 2. got stuck in numerous places e.g warehouse, where the mccalister is stored 3. I HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE INVISIBLE WALLS 4. Takes to long to set up and having to set up fresh everytime is abit tedious. 5. Not a massive fan of games covered in snow but that is a me issue. 6. Glitchy with items such as player jump pad, sometimes it dissapears. 7. have to hold shift to run and ctrl to crouch, i would prefer to tap to run and tap to crouch not hold. Suggestions: 1. Have a save system where you can set up objects on the road then reload it the next day, this would allow tweaking of items and perfection. 2.Different maps, maybe DLC maps with different seasons and locations 3. Add an im stuck button that teleports you to a safe space 4. Polish and polish and polish 5. Ditch that meditation music and have something different or no music at all Overall i actually like the game alot, yes it has its flaws but for the price i can look past them. very few games are priced fairly and in my opinion this one is priced fairly. But if development continues and updates and extra content comes out this will be a bargain because it is actually alot of fun. To the three dads and temp voice dad, well done on actually taking the time to create something, unfortunatly these days (myself included) people say alot but dont do alot. Its nice to see a game that doesnt require full attention and as a dad myself of two young boys that are very active, i have to keep an eye on them constantly and with this game i just set up the road and watch whilst watching my children play. Thank you all for not being greedy and producing a good game, best wishes for all you guys and your families
One of y'all devs posted on a FB group called Dude Dads a month or so ago about this game and I wishlisted it immediately. Super glad I did cause it's a ton of fun! My wife loved it and will be buying it as well. Great job y'all
good ♥♥♥♥
Runs surprisingly well on the Steam Deck! Just remember to set graphics to LOW before jumping in. There are a few minor hiccups here and there, but honestly, with everything going on the screen, it’s impressively smooth and genuinely fun. As a fellow dad, I can’t stress enough how much I respect the effort that went into this. Finding time to game is tough enough, let alone developing one. The gameplay is engaging, the visuals are charming even on low settings, and the overall experience shows a ton of heart. Seriously, massive props to these dads for making something this enjoyable. We need more games with this kind of passion behind them!
I've really enjoyed this little game. It's been a blast jus causing chaos in the road. I even posted a couple of vids on youTube about it. It's well worth the cost for the chaos you can cause and entertainment you can get.
Bought this game for fun, stayed for the chaos. Half the enjoyment is experimenting with how much mayhem you can cause on the road. It doesn’t take itself too seriously, and that’s exactly why it works. Thumbs up for supporting a small dads studio for a game that doesnt cost a left arm, easily a recommendation from me.
What a fun game! I like that you earn XP quite fast, and you always find a new way create more chaos. The music is spot on! I hope the devs will add different seasons and maybe different locations at a later time. Great work so far!
This is incredible! it takes a second to figure out, but damn the fun ramps up fast! GG Bandits!
Me like big chaos
This was such a fun game, I mean just putting ♥♥♥♥ on the road and just seeing these mf cars get destroyed. Makes me scared how it might happen IRL! Wish the achievements weren't AI art though...
