Sadly, the number of bugs in this game makes it unplayable after you purchase your first garage. I hope it can be improved for the future

Update: I've gotten further, thanks to creating backups of my saves lol. I almost did it again by being confused as to how to paint and how much it'd cost. It costs about 400 to paint?? And 2000 to be able to paint cars (unlock painting) I'd suggest every time you finish a car, you copy your saves to a safe place (while in game seems fine so far). I had to disable cloud saves to load my back up. It's starting to get quicker in-game (upgraded equipment) and I LOVE that! Clean seat, done.. Clean mat, done. I think this is one of those TYT games. (Take your time) But I am enjoying my advancement so far. There may be more to detailing that I've yet to experience.
(Note: I've added some screenies of my progress and please note I'm still early on)

I like this game a lot but of the 10 hours I've played, I'm only about 2 hours into my current game. Mainly because I had to restart because I took on cars I couldn't do something with before I was ready. So... lol, I've created a shortcut to their locallow folder with the saves in it and back them up after every car. I wish it had multiple saves for the same game in case of issues. That's my issue.

I'm enjoying it, though it is a bit monotonous. It's good especially when I can't focus on a game that requires a lot of focus. This, and Car Mech, work great for that type of experience for me.

Don't unlock anything until you need it, just in case you run short and get stuck. Getting going is a bit tough. but I bet once you have all tools and unlocks that there'd be no more risks with that situation.

It's hard to see if you get all of the water spots and such. Even with F for flashlight. Sometimes that part is too bright while the no flashlight is too dark. Can't find a good balance on visual.

I think it's worth buying if you like to find something with the same actions as relaxing and helpful for your mind, and if you get it on sale. I always try for those sales. :D It's actually not a bad price as is but I still prefer sales.

Don't expect a whole lot out of it and you may not feel let down. It is a simulation of washing and cleaning other people's cars to make a few dollars to expand your facility and upgrade your tools. I like it and I don't regret my purchase. Please always read other reviews, in particular the recent ones in case there's been updates. I'd also check to see if their update frequency is up to your standards and that you meet the requirements. If you play, Good luck and have fun! ^.^

Is more like a car cleaning simulator, is a chill game nevertheless, whatching the car all cleaned at the end is oddly satisfying

There isn't too much progression tho, so it might become a bit repetitive

Game is very fun if your into this type of stuff and it has a decent enough story to be interesting the whole concept of the game is very simple yet some of the jobs do sometimes have bugs such as foaming the car and it not saying your done but every part of the car has foam on it id say that this game gets 4.9 stars just because it needs a little bit of an update for the bugs.

chock full of bugs. Tried twice to make it to the 2nd garage and got hit with game breaking bugs both times that force you to start a new save. Theres little story progression, you can just start and be 'detailing' exotics. bigger garage just means more space, nothing new. processes are nothing like real life so its not really a simulator as much as it is a way for playway to make money by recycling old 3d models.

Too many bugs for the time being.

Was a promising prospect, but even now - waaaay past launch - there is no real bug fixing going on, only requests to "upload logs" - then nothing happens.

Has great potential but needs fixing badly.

Edit: Just noticed, "PlayWay". Silly me.

This looked fun but within the first steps of the game I ran into problems. First run through I got through the tutorial but couldn't continue because I could not purchase any cleaning supplies. The Store icon was greyed out. Second try I couldn't make it through the tutorial. Kept trying to spray the car with foam. After 15 minutes, could not get the counter to move. Definitely some bugs in this game that need working out. Very disappointed.

Fun game. Point and click game that can mindlessly be played. Pretty fun for the most part until you have a huge order of 5 cars and it takes an hour to do one job. For 16 dollars it's a good buy if you want a mindless game to play while listening to a podcast or something.

Game hast a potential to be good but as of today, it's really shitty, dumb UI, Can't finish some jobs because of the Camera Angels that you most of the time, cannot change.
No leveling system whatsoever which could be nice, to be able to unlock more QoL features.
As of now, I would not recommend this game to anyone, maybe in the future if it gets updates etc.
To be honest, regret spending my money on this.

A relaxing little time waster with some flaws, but great potential.
Since devs appear to be looking through ratings for feedback, here's some problems I ran into and suggestions to make the game better.

Problems:
-Had a few instances of the game crashing/becoming unresponsive, mostly after alt+tabing
-Sometimes progress for certain tasks is stuck at 99%, had it happen for foaming, polishing and cleaning certain wheels
-while preparing for polishing, scratches are still very hard to see (maybe this could be helped by having the color of marked scratches be the inverted color of the current paint job instead of a set color that can be selected in options?)

Suggestions:
-An option to toggle crouching/tiptoeing
-an option to hold click for tasks that require multiple clicks like foaming wheels and spraying windows
-mod support / workshop integration

Edit after playing more: So yeah, I mostly stand by what I said below. However I'm gonna say you might want to wait out for a sale or a few patches to happen first. The jank really starts showing through in the latter half of the game and it can quickly become a bit of a pain in the arse. Devs: you might want to check your email and whatever google sheet the "report error" stuff is piped into, cos I have sent you an absolute assload of bugs and feedback for y'all.

Is it a "texture changing" simulator as many pejorative-yet-negative reviews put it? Yes.

Is it a fun simulator despite that? Yes.

Is it comfy and relaxing and perfect to play with a video or podcast on in the background? Absolutely.

Is it a janky glitchy mess that sometimes forgets that you own a car even though you're currently working on it forcing you to save and quit to the main menu so you can reload so the game goes "oh, right"? Yeeeeeahhh it is, unfortunately. But trust me, imho, still totally worth it for how comfy it is.

In its current state, I cant recommend. in the 3 hours i've played it, almost every single vehicle has been unable to progress due to the game not realizing what im cleaning, is actually clean. No matter what I do, or how many times I redo it, it still says its dirty when its clearly not. Hopefully a patch comes out soon that fixes these issues. If they do, I will redo my review, but until then, you should steer clear until they fix this huge buggy mess.

The game is more playable now. those who want to kill time are at the right address.

***Car wash is torture. The foam problem is extremely frustrating, the vehicle has no foaming area, but it's still dirty and it's not healing at all. even if i turn the game off and on. i'm tired of washing 1 cars for 2 hours. i like the game and i hope the mistakes will be corrected as soon as possible. i'm not suggesting this game right now until the mistakes are corrected. THANKS!***

Another well done sim. Easy to get sucked in for hours and hours. I have a RTX2080 and am not having any of the foaming performance issues. Maybe they fixed already idk?? If you think you might like this you probably will. Give it a shot.....

Not to bad of a game to be honest.
Great details, great features and it's something great to play in a chill out mood.
Would be better if there was an setting for the brightness, as sometimes you can not spot where some of the dirt is, due to it being a bit to dark (Even worse on dark coloured cars)
Not to keen on the cleaning of wing mirrors, as sometimes it doesn't register you spinning the mouse.

If Car Mechanic Simulator and House Flipper had a child, it would look like this.
You like Cars ? You like cleaning tasks in House Flipper ? Then this game is for you!

Only negative thing so far for me is that the performance could be a bit better. CMS 21 is more demanding and runs better than this game. Some noticeable framedrops when foaming and rinsing the car or focusing on the car.
But i'm sure this can be improved over time, game can only get better.

For the current price i would recommend it!

Very unrealistic "Detailing" simulator. Who knew you could detail wheels completely bone dry without using an ounce of product and they still come up super shiny! In terms of actually washing the cars, there's not even a contact wash stage. The game is too "on rails" for it to be any fun or for it to be adventurous and let the player "detail" a car the way it's supposed to be done. Oh, and since when did removing stains from a seat involve SANDPAPER and a PAINT GUN?! Overall, pretty poor in my honest opinion. Visuals are... meh, not great but not horrific. 4/10 for me, at a push.

Enjoying it from the get-go. They took the time to make a very comprehensive and polished game, no pun intended. On par with the rest of the Simulator serious and very relaxing to play.

Sturbex

So far...I HIGHLY recommend this game.
It's very relaxing and so much fun.

From cleaning the exterior to removing garbage from the interior, it only gets better as you progress.
As the game is only just released there have already been a number of patches and a DLC released by the devs which is fantastic. I can only see this game getting better.

What would i like to see in the future? More interior cleaning options such as wiping down and polishing the dash and pedals. Being able to take a ratchet to remove the seats would also be a nice touch, this could be done to reveal further garbage underneath and perhaps adding a vacuum option would be pretty nifty.
For exterior, removing iron deposits with sprays/clay bars would also be really cool.
And then for garages, cleaning up after each detail can be a nice way to finish up and may add to rankings perhaps.

Can't wait to see whats in store for this game down the line!

The game is a bit of a hot mess.

TLDR: Some bugs and gameplay issues that can cause soft locks or inability to 100% complete a job; overall boring and repetitive gameplay. Feels like it should be no more than an add-on to something like Car Mechanic Simulator. Maybe in the future it will get better

In the macro sense, it's extremely basic and repetitive, with essentially no real progression to speak of. You can get your larger workshop pretty early on, which makes you wonder why even bother with the one you start with. You also can't move the detailing kits between shops which is pretty annoying. Most of the cars you get for whatever reason are green. I don't think I've seen a single black, white, or silver color. You can sort of soft-lock yourself if you spend on the wrong upgrades at the wrong times, getting yourself stuck on a job you don't have an ability to 100% finish (you can still move on, you just lose money/reputation). A lot of the gameplay again is repetitive. Every car has leather seats that, when they need to be repaired, it's all the same thing with sanding and spraying which is... weird.

The game itself is a big buggy and just... not well done. You don't actually have control of any of the tools, you only "apply" them to the surface of the car, which is a bit weird. Imagine Power Wash Simulator but instead of actually having the washer move where you aim it, you just click on the surface you want it to apply to and it washes that way. It's also no consistent with giving you credit for an area being cleaned, as in it will tell you wiping the car dry is complete, but when you go to polish it tells you it is still wet or has foam, but doesn't tell you where (even with the right-click, it's sometimes hidden where you can't see, like inside the wheel well). When you apply the tire foam it gets inside of the car - not a gameplay issue but just annoying. The more advanced kits essentially do all the work for you, so you're just mindlessly letting the tools do their work without having to think about what steps to take to resolve something (it makes it easy, but also just, boring and mind numbing). There's no real cost to materials, so its easier to just foam the entire car, or polish the entire thing instead of wasting time using the light to look for scratches and such. The deep scratch repair is bugged where it will spawn scratches on door handles, but the game doesn't let you interact with door handles so you can't properly repair the scratch.

This is a very chill game and exactly the kind of thing I like to play when I'm watching a stream or something on Youtube. I like these games when I still want to be doing something but when I don't want to focus my full attention on something as I'm also doing something else (multi-tasking ADHD brain).

However, there are bugs - in some instances, game-breaking 'I don't want to play anymore' bugs. So far, I have encountered:

Unable to progress because I ran out of jobs before I could buy all the detailing kids I needed (patched).
Got a car in the auction and cleaned it up etc. to 100%. Auctioned the car, cancelled the auction, and then could only re-auction the car for 0 - making a huge loss (which got me an achievement but hey).
Finally the thing that made me stop playing for now is the foam wash. I finally unlocked 2 car slots to do 2 cars at once and then it wouldn't register me foaming either of them despite covering them in foam, which meant I could not clean the cars.

It's worth getting and the developers seem attentive so I'm sure these things will be fixed, but I'll be coming back in a few weeks when the bugs are (hopefully) ironed out before I play again as it's too frustrating right now.

Simulators are giving FPS's and hack-n-slash games a run for their money. Car Detailing Simulator is no different. While I let my own car morph into a garbage truck because I hated cleaning it, CDS is a pleasure to play. Like most sims, there's a sense of accomplishment with taking a nasty-looking thingamajig and turning it into a thing of beauty. The devs have got a real winner here.

It´s very niche, even for car sims enthusasts but i kinda liked it. Similar to Car Mechanic you take requests to clean up cars, wash, polish em, repair the seats and such. Gets the feeling of a car wash right, you also buy/fix/sell cars later in the game, a bit simplistic. A few notes:
-Graphics are a bit low poly for the cars, don´t expect the detail of CMS 2018/2021, they are more on the level of 2015
-Wierd colours, i think devs could ajust these but i really not of fan of the colours used, not an issue with the models mind you but they choose very basic and unnatural colours for the cars.
-A bit short game end
-Repetitive, this is mostly a problem with the genre but i would like if they can add more stuff and variety to the tasks, maybe have more advanced tools for your garage like cleaning of motor parts exhaust pipes.

One hour in and I absolutely love this! The developers went absolutely above and beyond to make this as authentic yet entertaining as possible, and I adore it. You can tell for sure they had tons of fun making this, and I'm hoping to see more cool stuff added.

I would like to point one issue out, however. I noticed some visible shading issues on some car models (a big one being the Abori 81) As someone who works in the Automotive 3D modelling field I know shading errors are an inevitable pain in the butt, but there were noticeable issues on some of the major body panels (like the trunk, hood, etc.) I'd suggest taking a look and correcting some of them. Doesn't take away from the experience at all, but took me out of my "ooooooh it's so shiny" moment after cleaning a car haha

The graphics are pretty bad, the simulation of the game in the tutorial of washing the car and the game takes ages to load maybe because i was on the hard drive and not my m.2 ssd but it toke a solid 7 minutes to load into the tutorial.

It is a great game in the beginning, but the deep scratches are just ridiculous. Removing them hurts your wrist after a short while and just ruins the game in my opinion.

I got stuck after going to the new garage, following the tutorial in the new garage, I was forced to put the car that I bought into the new garage, but I had NO WAY to wash the car since there is no tools in the new garage. So I am just stuck like that right now.
I might change the review to recommended until the issue is fixed

Awesome Game ! Just make the graphics more to get in reality more!! I hope the admin will make new garage upgrades and specially for the tools and the lightning in the garage ! please if you can add workers so they can help us more to run atleast on garage for customers and the action if you can raise the money of selling little up so we can earn more money..... The game is on fire and I apreciated the developers work.. :) Thanks Guys

I've really enjoyed this game until the most recent update. I feel like you're required to complete less of the tasks, meaning that when I'm in the middle of enjoying buffing and polishing away scratches, it'll finish with half the hood and an entire door still marked up, and wipes it clean. Everything kind of just finishes way too fast now. Still pretty enjoyable and don't regret buying. Hoping they'll turn it down a few notches in the future.

Game itself is good, however for some reason , at exact same time as I was playing it I got Security warning from my PC cyber protection. So I got rid of it .

This is such a chilled game when your indulging in some mary jane its not even funny, i have ran into some occasional bugs but given its not long released thats perfectly acceptable in my eyes. The game without a doubt is screaming for a co-op mode similar to power wash simulator and a better kit for repairing seats because it takes so damn long.

Over all highly recommend,

game is boring, for each car it is just the samething. you are basically just washing and cleaning cars, there is no thinking or designing or anything. I played just over 2 hrs and by the 2 hr mark the idea of going outside and watching the grass grow sounded more fun

The game is still plagued with bugs and a few performance issues. The performance issues relate to some of the cars and these cars have a texture issue that can be seen on the hood/bonnet of each. Frame rates drop when doing anything with these cars and especially foaming/rinsing. The foaming and rinsing bug is still there "car is not clean" but is much rarer in happening now. Other performance issues occur when accessing the before and after pictures function on the board and when looking through the cars in the shed. Some other random bugs include your player character being launched to the ceiling (main garage at the two car cleaning slots next to the shed) and another (in the same location) when exiting from the back of a car after cleaning the interior where your player character cannot move. Both these bugs the player can work around, the former by entering the car and exiting it on the other side. The latter by entering the car and then moving it to the other car slot (if free) and exiting the car again. Both bugs are intermittent and random. Another intermittent and seemingly random bug is the vanishing floor in the garage of the Ammo DLC (this may have been fixed, i don't know). Repairing the seats could be a little smoother in operation too. I'll recommend the game but i would suggest other buyers to wait until more bugs and performance issues have been fixed. One other issue not mentioned is a performance issue whenever a new notification arrives for a new car being entered into the auction, there is a sudden and very visible frame rate drop. Timings are mostly off for the cleaning processes, for example, it will say the car is clean but there is still a large amount of water visible to be wiped off the car and while the process of removing the deep scratch has been improved, it now happens too quickly and the scratch is not fully covered by the brush/paint. Edit: Spent a little more time with the Ammo DLC and although the performance issue is still there when foaming the cars (the performance hit seems to vary by car type/model) and some texture faults here and there, other than that it's almost as if the DLC was created by another developer as the bugs that exist within the main game do not appear to be present in the DLC. UPDATE: The good news is all the mentioned bugs now appear to have been fixed. I certainly haven't encountered any again. The bad news is the performance issues have not been fixed and there are three additional locations where these occur. The exhibition room, the show room and your main garage (4 car slots and shed) The exhibition room is where it is at it's worst, very visible frame rate stutters. It also seems linked to the cars as the more cars you have in these rooms the worse it is so if you have a full exhibition room the performance hit will be at it's worst. Usually i notice very little in the main garage as i usually had no more than two cars at any time but when i had four cars the performance issue became noticeable. If i have no cars in the showroom there is no performance hit. Of course changing the graphics settings does not help in any way.

UPDATE (After 2 months)
Not a single game update in two months after fixing a bunch of bugs. While the game is playable you will play it to your cost because the game graphics still have not been optimised. It has my nicely matured GTX 1070 working it's ass off after a few mins of game play, especially in the areas and activities I've already mentioned, all this at the very lowest graphical settings of the game. This of course draws power and power is electricity which of course increases your electricity bill. How long does it take the devs to optimise a game? They are well aware of it. Have they even bothered to start, are they capable? The way its going, this is looking likely to be the first and last product i will buy from them. Nice work!

It's okay, I guess.

I have to say no because you cannot finish cleaning most of the car's headlights. This completely breaks the game in terms of progressing in the larger garage, where it won't let you click the phone to end a job before it's 100% (You can end a job at any time in the first, small garage). So now I have just have 2 cars stuck forever in my big garage.

I wouldn't purchase until all of the game breaking bugs are fixed.

Maybe a little unfair to give this a thumbs down as it's the first texture simulator I've tried.
Friend of mine has lots of fun just playing with a Steam Cleaner game so I thought I'd give
this a shot. It wasn't for me, got bored after two cars.

The bad Cartoon cut scenes seem to suggest a deep back story behind washing cars. I don't care.
"Full Controller support" Erm no. Controller can be used but not as we know it. Mice it is.

If point and spray at cars is your thing this has potential.

Sorry Zombies, I left you for a while but now I'm coming home.

I'm not sure how I feel about this game tbh. I wish there was a "meh" option for recommending. If you like looking at pretty cars, especially after they're clean, then it's a great game. If you're looking for a ton of things to do and a sense of accomplishment like you built the car yourself, then you'll probably hate it. It's very repetitive. You basically go down a checklist of car cleaning for each car, take a picture of it, and that's about it. Some cars have a time limit, which so far I've found impossible to beat. The controls are a little wonky for some things like the drying cloths and the sanders/buffers. I haven't really seen any bugs or glitches except one while cleaning the headlights. Overall, not terrible, just a bit repetitive. I wish there was more creativity allowed with the cars like adding decals, graphics, etc.

This game Has all around good vibes and for most of my friends who know me, know that i Love (ASMR)! It is an autonomous sensory Meridian response that describes a physical sensation that happens because of physical, visual, and audible stimulation. For me.. this is what i want from the simulation Games that are geared towards real life expectations, such as Hearing that exact sound the water makes as it drips down the car, or wiping the water off and wringing the rag of Moisture. This game Gets a ten out of ten score for me in every department, visual,sound,A.I, excetra.... because let me tell you, if you have ever cleaned or waxed a car in real life to get that sweet shine, Then you know you are going to have that carpal tunnel for a few days in your hands haha ! This game gives me the exact reaction after trying to use my lamp to buff out the scratches and cracks in the car :D. Anyways my friends .. if you love cars, or simulation games .. then be sure to check this one out. I know you won't regret the purchase and will be entertained for hours. Replay ability factor for this game is very high and will always keep you coming back for more hehe.

For a game all about detailing the game is sorely lacking in that department. All vehicles have the same black pleather seats albeit some different striations, the floor/trunk mats are all the same model no matter the car/truck your detailing. The components like dash, doors and center console are shown but are not intractable and no access at all to the engine bay. Hopefully in the future they decide to include additional intractable objects until then I cannot recommend the game

So many bugs, you can't clean the tire completely, headlights, you fly above the car. It's so annoying, and the graphics are way below the standard of any other simulators out there especially for the $15 price point they're asking.

I'm big into simulator games, I just chill and watch netflix while I play them and instead of returning it I gave it the benefit of the doubt and decided to play further before determining how bad it is, but I don't think it was worth it. Even if they fix the small bugs which are everywhere, the graphics are just so low quality. The buildings might be decent quality, but the important part is the cars and how you clean them, that is the #1 most important part and it feels like the #1 most neglected part. I want this game to succeed and be good because I would like to detail cars and all that, but I get the feeling they have never played a simulator game before, and as a consequence this one is severly lacking compared to others out there.

As a professional detailer I feel like this game is missing some primary points relating to detailing but for a game that's just on the market for fun it's not bad. it gives you the gist of certain things. There is more to detail than just splashing soap on a car and then rinsing it off. you should usually scrub a car too or else why did you bother washing it in the first place. For the sake of arcade-like fun it's decent though.

Rating: 9/10 I feel the game could use a few more things before claiming to be a "Simulator" but it's a good video game if you want to just fantasize about being a freelance car detailer.

At times can feel repetitive, some tasks you'll like others you won't. That being said it's very relaxing and super satisfying.

Its a change of pace from running around killing things, but its also very satisfying.

Every car/task is more or less the same. Lack of variety makes this boring quickly.
If you own a car irl, just go clean that instead.
Might revisit after some updates.

I'll give a thumbs up, but only bcuz I enjoy car sim and the foundation this game is built on...... but...... graphics need work very rough, and something feels clunky with the game so be aware of those minor flaws. Price is OK but would rather pay a bit less for what your getting imo.

I like this game but it can get frustrating when it says you still need to polish parts of the car or wash the wheels when they appear to look done. Also wish there were more tutorials on how to do certain tasks. I've only played the game a few times but I have yet to figure out how the paint feature works if a car needs to be painted. It doesn't show how to do it, you pretty much have to figure it out yourself.
In the end, I do like this game and I enjoy making the cars look awesome at the end.

After about 4 hours the game started having major issues. The Pro tool kits and nicer cars have several problems. The wash indicators stop working, the scratches don't show up when you try to fix them. My request for a refund was denied because the game broke after I had played for 2 hours. Do yourself a favor, don't buy this broken mess, because they'll trick you into playing just long enough that you can't get your money back when it stops working.

Edit: I don't want to become a Beta Tester. I want a refund.

This game is pretty much what the trailers and description say. If you think you might be into it give it a try. It is very relaxing, and a definite way to pass time. 8-8.5/10

If you enjoy Car Mechanic Simulator, Gas Station Simulator, Powerwashing Simulator, or any of the other "cleaning/fixing" job sims, you'll probably love this after getting used to the janky-at-first controls and quirks of gameplay. I was turned off by some of the washing mechanics at first, but got used to it almost immediately, and am thoroughly enjoying it now, especially after progressing to the in-game "Professional" toolkits, making the process a lot better.

Being a PlayWay game, what you see is what you get. Stock Unity assets, reused models from their other titles, and sometimes strange graphical artifacts. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, especially if you like the games listed above. You know what you're getting going in, and that's about it.

This game has a bit of a story to it, but it's nothing to write home about. The progression between "Chapters" if you can call it that is cute, but doesn't serve much of a purpose but to explain why things are happening in-game.

The progression system seems neat so far, and the garage upgrades are a nice touch to give you a sense of progression in a way that doesn't feel too grindy or rushed. I've yet to get into the latter half of the game too much, but fully completing the first garage took about 6 hours, and it absolutely flew by. That's a real good sign for games like these.

If they can keep adding content, DLCs, and possibly new features to the game, I can see myself putting in 100+ hours into this game just as I have with CMS 18 and 21, as well as other PlayWay titles.

Don't expect this to be groundbreaking or life changing. It's simply another entry into the PlayWay simulator gaming universe. And if you're like me, you'll enjoy it just as much as the last few titles in their catalogue

8/10. Well done!

Unsatisfying clicker game with no sense of simulation. The whole gameplay boils down to choosing a tool from a clunky UI and sort of swooping around randomly over something and BAM, - it's magically clean/polished/painted. I'm sure the game has it's audience, but a "simulator" in it's name is misleading.

for the last couple months ive avoided buying this due to some of its feedback, fortunately i eventually watched a youtube review and liked what i saw. been playing for the last 3hrs and so far im loving it. if you are into games like power wash simulator or house flipper, this is deffinately one to add to you library. for me personally, i give it 9/10.

one thing i would like to see added is to be able to toggle the crouch instead of having to hold the button

Ok so pretty much all around an awesome game! I absolutely love it. Would highly recommend. The devs did an amazing job and I can't wait to see what comes next. However, there are a couple issues, for instance, I bid on a Poly 1059 and when I went to place it, it was a Smith 1500. Not sure what that's about but it needs to be fixed please. Also I think the drying sham should be a bit bigger. (surface area.) However, other then that, thank you so much to the devs. I have been looking forward to this game and absolutely LOVE it.

not the best if you don't have bucketloads of time on your hands. great otherwise

edit one- i saw the response and if you see this, you are not far off. the gameplay is a bit long to complete a car. also some of the cars are clearly well designed. actually all of them are. thanks for the response

Boring. LIke other people said, UI and controls are clunky, and it doesn't really seem to teach you about how to actually detail a car in real life. When you do try to clean, sometimes the hit boxes are off. At one point I seemed to have softlocked myself at the pink weeb car cause I bought the wrong tools and ran out of money and had to start all over. No real sense of progression either.

Maybe workshop/mods can help, like being able to clean a Skyline GTR R34 or a Supra. It would make the game a little more appealing.

----- Side Notes -----
The game is fun and all, it has the same concept as other simulators but with detailing cars. It can get repetitive at times after doing the same thing.There are only a few car models in the game at the moment but it will hopefully change. The game has quite a few minor bugs but those hopefully will get arranged in the near future. There is not a'lot of music variation in the game either meaning you will have to listen to the same tracks over and over. Overall the game is fun to pass some time but at the state it is in right now it does not have a'lot of compensation for when leveling up, unlocking a new place etc. The game is a 6.5/10 ( If future updates remove minor bugs, add more cars and music etc it will be bumped to a 8/10)
