There are 16 different cars in the game each one with its unique handling model. You can experiment with them and play the ones that best suite your driving style and the different situations you'll find in our 12 tracks. Oh, and maybe you'll want to use different cars depending on which type of event you're playing, because we have 48 events in career mode, but not all of them are races! And if you grow tired of the tracks in the game you can always check what other tracks have the community built or even build your own and share it with our in-game track editor.
Features:
- 16 different cars with unique handling models
- 12 different tracks in 4 different locations which can be played in 5 different event types
- Career mode comprising 48 events
- Up to 4 player local multiplayer
- Up to 8 player online multiplayer
- Track editor to build and share your own tracks
Early Access Roadmap
We have a roadmap in place for the period the game is going to be in Early Access. We are aiming for a final release date in the first or second week of May. We have roughly 10 weeks to that date and we're planning to do, at least, weekly builds with improvements. We'll be announcing what's new in every build in the announcements section, but anyway here's the planned roadmap:
- March, 3rd: Mostly bugfixing and online improvements. Possibly some improvements in the HUD and menus.
- March, 10th: Improved menus backgrounds, improved HUD, better and more consistent AI accross the game. Achievement icons.
- March, 17th: More effects and particle systems. Bugfixing.
- March, 24th: First batch of vehicle paintjobs.
- April, 7th: Mac version. Second batch of vehicle paintjobs.
- April, 21st: Linux version. All vehicles have, at least, 2 paintjobs available.
- April, 28th: Some easter eggs, and other bonuses. Maybe provide a first alpha of a vehicle editor.
Bear in mind that this list is meant to change and adapt to your suggestions and feedback. Although we can't guarantee we'll implement every detail and suggestion we receive, we'll do our best to react to community feedback and make of Super Toy Cars the best game we can with your help.

Great game for little kids breaking into video games.
I read mixed reviews on this game and some of what's been said is inacurate. Firstly there is a track editor on the PC version and also online multiplayer. There were complaints about visuals, but it's possible to increase fidelity pretty much as high as you'd want to go or your GPU will let you. I played around with the various options 'till I found the optimal settings for my graphics card and the game now looks great. Some reported a drop off in frame rate yet I haven't experienced this at all even with all cars on screen. Some background objects look a bit blocky but I think that adds to the overall retro feel of the game. My obvious comparison is with Codemasters excellent Micro Machines series. This game does conjure up nostalgic memories from years gone by and I would suggest it's better than some of Codies more recent releases like 'World Series' for instance. There's a lot of milage in this wee game if you'll pardon the pun and well worth the bargain price.
Great racing game with a track editor and steam workshop support.
Positives: Runs really well 4K 60fps without a graphics card (Ryzen 3200G Vega 8 graphics). Fast racing & fun to play. Great graphics (You can change graphics options in the options menu to get it to run really fast). Includes a track editor and steam workshop support so you can make your own tracks and upload them for others to play and download other people's tracks. Only NZ$1.19 on sale at the moment (until 31 May 2022).
Negatives: Leaderboards don't work, Online multiplayer doesn't work. Collisions with objects can be bad (sometimes you collide when you shouldn't, sometimes you drive straight though them). Tracks are mostly flat with a few ramps, etc sometimes. Tracks downloaded from the Steam workshop have random numbers for names instead of the name in steam workshop. Music doesn't really fit the game and there are only few songs. I recommend you use your own music.
Those who love the Kart racing genre will certainly not be short of Super Toy Cars,
often with a cartoon-like look, but this time a little more modern with that animation touch.
Check out Super Toy Cars & its sequel gameplay here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=12FjKUVfyv4
In the game you will be able to choose between a regular simple race or a championship where you will then compete against 7 other races in different competitions as well.
Also pay close attention when you're racing for mines, you'll end up there sooner than you think!
You have the choice between 16 vehicles that you can also tune here and then, nitro and drift preferences are also present.
At each race you will also be able to take pickups that have weapons such as leaving an oil slick, or firing missiles among others.
The game is also quite big, with 48 different leagues spread over 12 tracks, and you also have the option to even compose tracks,
There is also the option to play online or locally with others, which also provides extra replayability.
Super Toy Cars
Positives:
+ Ok graphics
+ Ok sound
+ Some nice tracks
+ Some cool cars
+ Power ups and upgrades
+ Different game modes
+ Drifting (which makes it possible to turn)
+ Ok difficulty level
+ Its short
Negatives:
- The handling of the cars are all bad (even the best ones with upgrades)
- Repetitive music (a few tracks played over and over)
- To little variation between tracks (feels more like 4 different tracks than the actual 12)
- A lot of bugs and errors
- You get stuck everywhere
- A lot of twists and turns (which is bad when the cars handle that bad)
- No cockpit or bumper camera view
- Annoying collision issues
- Feels a bit repetitive
- Is more early access than a finished game
Total Score: 5.5/10
I don't know if I am a god at this game or the AI is awful...
Even though I played many racing games, I don't think the first option is true. Though I might understand if this was intended if the game was meant for kids, which I am very sure of the latter.
I am really not sure if this game is worth your time...most of the time you will hit every...possible...object in the course of a race and get reset at least 1 million times by the end of the career and you would still win 95% of the time. Drifting can be satisfying but overpowered making 80% of the cars useless. Many clipping with objects going on & a very annoying soundtrack.
I could only recommend this on sale for max 2$ since if you look at my playtime: that is just about how much time you would probably play it too.
I really wanted to like this game as I love micro/top down racers and this looked right up my ahem, street. On the face of it, it seemed to have a lot going for it - solo and multiplayer modes, different camera options (inc. top down) and even a course designer so I was really happy to have found it whilst browsing the store.
I played the Mac version and sadly couldn't get it to respond to any 360 controller inputs at all. I played a couple of races using the keyboard on the first track at it seemed OK (the handling wasn't as nice as I was hoping for) but I really wanted controller support for some local multiplayer. I tried reinstalling the game, verifying the files and installing an older build using the betas option in the game properties but no dice, it just wouldn't recognise that there was a controller attached. I have a controller driver that works well and other games are fine with the same controller so I don't think it's a problem at my end. Having had a look through the discussion forum it seems I'm not the only one with this issue and it's been known about for some time without a proper fix.
Unfortunately I asked for a refund as the controller issue ruins the experience for me. I don't think I played it enough to get a proper (and fair) feeling for the game itself so can't really offer much about it, but wouldn't recommend this game based on my own experience.
- Feels unfinished
- Controls and collision detection are a bit off.
- Speed is rather slow
Note: One cool feature this game has.
When you lay a bomb behind you, a little rear view window pops up and stays on screen until someone hits your bomb. So you can see if your placement was any good... Thumbs up for that..
A fun game at first but posess really little challenge, I completed the game to 100% and now I don't know why I should really play it, maybe only if my friends had the game and we could play it together, but that's it.
Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the game for all it was worth, I was happy to see that there is a track creator, but last time I played it the track creator was very buggy and confusing to use, with limited props and a glitchy pathway system.
The game plays like any other kid friendly racing game, Mario Kart, Crash Team Racing etc. You choose your car, you have the start boost, you get boost for drifting and you get power ups, nothing too special but it also lets you drive on a kitchen counter, there's charm to the game but it really doesn't differ too much from it's more successful counterparts.
During campaign you can buy and unlock new cars and skins for the cars to make your car more yours, you can give it upgrades until you upgrade all your cars and get the achievement, but that really is it, the upgrades are only for the campaign mode, not for multiplayer, which has it's positives and negatives, positives in the fact that everyone has an equal chance, negatives the fact that you spend your ingame money on upgrades that you will probably have a use in like once or twice, and then the campaign ends.
Oh yeah, the game also gives you a replay addition, cool huh? Shame that the replay A.I. sometimes forgets where you actually went and you end up crashing into walls during your replay, even if you have not crashed once during the actual race, greaaat.
Multiplayer: So the game is not popular, and you could probably see it if you played it, there isn't many people playing it, shame actually because the game is best when played with other people.
I'd say buy the game only if you have friends to play it with, it's not really a game to play on your own unless you just want to fill up your achievement pool with some more easily accuired achievements.
I recommend the game because it has charm and it's fun to play, but I suggest buying it if it is on a sale, don't waste £6.99 on this game, or like I wasted £10 when it first came out, it has it's charm but as a one off achievement grab game, it's not worth the price.
I rate this game at 5 out of 10 mini ferrarri's
I'm a sucker for the arcade racing genre, so I purchased this game early on (it might have been early access, I don't remember now), and I pretty much immediately wrote it off. More than anything the chunky hit boxes and punishing reset mechanics made for an infurating experience. That said, I'm glad I re-downloaded and gave it another shot. It's still not perfect but it's a whole lot better. In some ways the racing experience is among the most satisfactory of the arcade racers I play (among them, Bang Bang Racing, Mini-motors EVO, Little Street Racers) because it feels like the AI cars neither cheat nor are handicapped in an unrealistic manner. What remains imperfect are the hitboxes on some areas of some maps, which occasionally will find you stuck on parts that should clearly be traversable. Also, the heavily-mined elimination maps in career mode are almost hair-on-the-tongue annoying, at least if you're the sort that tries to get first on every map. I would rate myself as mediocre at this genre, for what it's worth, so if you're an ace at driving games, this might be too simple for you.
Now, lets set somthing straight before we get started
I was raised on Re-Volt, Crash Team Racing and Mario Kart
Do you now what all 3 of those games have in common? They are all interesting with a fair bit of replayability
Re-Volt made you feel like you were handling actual toy cars, in addition to having an impressive selection of cars/tracks
Crash Team Racing was just the best. Small-ish selection for cars and tracks. But the power-ups and the sheer uniqueness of the entire game made this a gem
Mario Kart was the great grandfather of kart racing, and had a fairly large track selection and had plenty of multiplayer mayhem
Does Super Toy Cars do this?
Yes. For about an hour and a half. Then it gets *really* dull *REALLY* quickly
The number of tracks described in the description is slightly wrong, or at least pretty misleading. They mean there are 12 tracks TOTAL, and there are 4 different locations TOTAL. It doesnt mean "there are 12 tracks in 4 locations for a total of 48 tracks" Moreover, the tracks are very simple affairs, nothing really unique about them at all
The cars are meh. Between the hitboxes being helariously random (as they collide with the track funkily, making drifting a chore when you clip a tube wall wrong, or get bumped out of a drift by a guy 3 feet away). This also makes ramming quite literally a hit or miss situation
Also, each car has stats that determine how they run. The only way to see these stats is to go into the campaign mode and memorize them, as you cannot see the during "quick race" or "multiplayer" modes. But again, unless if its an extreme stat (insanely high or low) you will not notice a difference. Without fail the high speed models (formula 1 car generally) will have a piece of cake for the races, where as the more maneuverable or more weighty models get lapped constantly with very little balancing
The powerups are lame. There is not much really to be said about them other than they feel weak because of the funky physics on the car's part. If a car gets hit with an 8ball (a very powerful weapon) it kind of gets spun a little... It also has the annoying feature of replacing your powerup whenever you drive over a new one. Making sure that you cant save them for when you need them
So in summary, I would give Super Toy Cars a 4/10
Its not a bad game, just a game done poorly. Pick it up if its on sale for 4 dollars or less, but dont expect much
TL:DR VERSION
Ok racing game gets boring quickly. Spend 10 dollars elsewhere
Super Toy Cars=Super Fun!!!
Its simple, yet challenging. I played it one weekend, and finally, just dominated every race. I was kinda disappointed, as I enjoy a good challenge. I then got busy for the next 3 days. When on the fourth day, I tried it, I was surprised at how rusty I was that I even failed at a race challenge that I usually had no problem with!
One down side is, that the online mutli-player lobby is usually empty. I first tried an online race, June 14, 2014. I was the only one on. I tried a second race. Again, only me. So I checked the time. 9:27pm Eastern time. This game will be complete once the online lobby fills up completely with racers.
This is also the perfect game to try to get used to racing games, bumper car type games, games where you get items to use against the other racers(such as MarioKarts.)
Ill be keeping my eye on the multi player lobby. Hopefully, it'll start filling up and I can fix the part of this review and say multi player is going smoothly.
Simple enough racing game. Choose from a variety of cars in the career mode, upgrade them with the game money earnt from winning races.
In the career mode there are a variety of different stages with levels, most of them include the following:
Race: race to the finish line.
Time Trial: Win with the correct time (you're the only one on the track so there is no pressure).
Checkpoint: Get to the checkpoint before time runs out, you get more points added each checkpoint you pass.
Evade: Race while evading lot's of really anoying mines all over the road, sometimes this will have another annoying rule to it, every 15 seconds the last player get's banished and loses.
Bad things about the game is the drifting can be annoying at times, but it shouldnt get in your way too much, and how every race you have to start last (i think that that is in all racing games though) makes it very hard to get in front when the game AI get better cars.
Apart from them the game is a great game, with a great price.
I love this little game, hope to see more updates and features. I have an xbox 360 controller and had no major problems with the game. But I know it is an Early Release so there may be bugs or things that don't work right.
Super Toy Cars IS a good game.
It's seems bland, repetitative and the music never really changes beat.. If hear "start to ignite", one more time..
Having said that, IT IS still in development so the game is not polished; but it has heaps of potential. It has all the hallmark racing themes, plain races, elimation and time trial and likley more that I didnt see.
I wouldn't buy it again in its current state - but hey there is nothing wrong with it really; it would not be a waste of your $ if you bought it.
Enjoy!
Reminds me a lot of a game from my childhood, which I THINK was Micro-Machines for the Playstation. Controlling a toy car around house-based environments and the sort (eg. kids rooms with a course set of toys). It's a lot of fun. Brings back memories of the game I mentioned. I look forward to playing this a lot more.
Even though it's an Early Access game, I can tell this game has some SERIOUS potential. It's cute, it's Mario Kart-like, and it plays like a classic fun racer. There are a few bugs in the game (I'll outline the good and the bad below) but for $5 or so, it's one of those Early Access games you can play with and feel really good about what's to come.
Before I contrast the good and the bad, I should mention that if you're wanting a realistic racer, this isn't for you. Hence the title, "Super Toy Cars". Expect there to be some over-the-top physics and gameplay. It feels much more like a console game that is reminiscent of the old Micro Machines games and Diddy Kong Racing on the N64. As of now, it's a blast to play. I've been sitting here for a couple of hours just getting to know the game, and it's got some fun dimensions to it that would make it even more of a blast when you're playing with a bunch of friends online.
That being said, here's what I've found good and bad (mind you, this is based off the Early Access):
The Good:
- A wide selection of cars to choose from
- The upgrades to your vehicles are noticeable, and add a whole new element to your favorite car
- You WILL have a favorite car
- Drifting is encouraged and fun to do to gain "Boost" (I thought it would be a downside, but it's definitely not!)
- The controls are simple, making for a game pretty much anyone can play and enjoy
- Nice, consistent graphics that any decent machine can run
- Looks decent at 1080p
- Full XBox 360 controller support (for those of you who use controllers)
- Wide variety of tracks that you can set the difficulty for
- A set of different race types that are fun to play
- A track editor! An awesome track editor!
- Different camera views to suit your prefence of gameplay (even a top-down, view!)
- Beautiful potential for multiplayer
- Nice array of power-ups (and a neat little subset screen to watch your opponents run into them)
- Each car is unique in how it handles, and there is most likely going to be a car editor in the future
- No rubberband AI! You can lap around opponents and not feel like how well you've done on a level can be taken from you in a second because of stupid freaking rubberbanding!
- Very well-scaled AI
The Bad:
- Definitely not finished
- Invisible walls to some of the maps make it difficult to judge how to turn
- Sometimes landing a high jump will cause your car to embed into the track
- The physics need to be tweaked just a little bit
- When you "die", you have a moment or two of invulnerability - just beware that other cars do, as well. Once you or them "pop back into existence", be sure that your car is clear of the other ones, or you might ping off into space
- The tracks and races in career mode don't have names, making it seem very vanilla
- Tracks also don't have very much special about them in career mode
- No way to set the difficulty in career mode
- BIG ONE: Very limited options for display settings (anti-aliasing and the like)
- No way to take off upgrades you've purchased for your vehicles
- Though there are a lot of types of pick-ups, it would feel better if there were even more (invulnerability, for example)
- In career mode, the tracks start to become repetitive
- Sometimes just driving outside of the lines of a track will reset your car
- It has the feel of a game ported from a console
- HUGE CONCERN: There is an inability to be able to customize the controls
Recommendations:
- If you haven't had the thought to already, making custom tracks available for multiplayer would be amazing
- The ability to run our own music through the game (for example, being able to choose a music folder on your computer and play that instead of the in-game music - which is very good, by the way... some others may disagree, though)
- MORE ACHIEVEMENTS!!
- Better control of the graphics
- Assignable controls (PLEASE!)
- ^^^ASSIGNABLE CONTROLS!!!!^^^
- Once again, assignable controls
- More color options for vehicles
- Steam Workshop support (might be reaching a bit, but there is just so much potential here)
- Assignable. Freaking. Controls.
- The game could maybe use a little bit of humor along with the gameplay... I mean, it is satisfying and hilarious to crush your opponents with a giant 8-ball, but maybe some "Ohh YEAH!" sound effects. Or maybe if it was a random object that you chucked forward? Something like a baseball, a cheeseburger, small dog, Gilbert Gottfried, etc...
All in all, this game is amazing. It really is. At the small price it's at for an Early Access game, you're going to get your money's worth and see a TON of improvement. I'm sure by the time this thing is polished 100%, it's going to be a top-seller here.
Micro Machines or RE-VOLT was your first impression too when you look this game? Two great classics.
I like this game already, is a inspired game and Super Toy Cars is doing great so far. For a Early Access the game is running pretty well and smooth.
To be honest, Early Access games on Steam is going to a way where we can't trust on everyone, but for five bucks and already see all theses great features implemented, the devs deserve a try.
Super Toy Cars is a really, really great game, excellent for parties!
Anyone can be familiar with the controls with a few plays.
You can also create and share your own tracks.
Even in its early stage, it's very polished.
Pick up and have fun!
Think of Super Toy Cars as a cross between Re-Volt and Penny Racers/Choro-Q. It's a fun little game for cheap despite being in it's early stages. Despite being in early access currently I'd consider it a full-featured game content wise. Nice variety of tracks, several cars with unique handling, a really fun local split screen mode and decent online. There is a track editor as well that's pretty intuitive. Only major complaint I have is the cars feel a little "floaty", hence the Penny Racers comparison (besides the general look of the game)...other than that I think it's a fantastic game.
Just picked this up for five bucks and I would say it is worth it.
The game is charming and has almost the same feel as mario cart/sackboy racing.
You are controlling a toy car and in environments that
are pretty cool, like being in the kitchen and racing around food and stuff or racing around a kids room and so on. Music sounds pretty good and sound effects are also pretty good.
You can buy other cars with the ingame currency you earn by racing and you can upgrade your little cars as well.
Also there is a track editor too so there will totally be workshop tracks popping up from the community.
For an early access game it runs/plays great and the keyboard works well though I always switch to my ps3 controller and emulate xbox controls through a ds3 tool (motioninjoy). The graphics look good and I can't wait for more people to pick this up so I can play online multiplayer.
I only noticed the game through the featured list and not the EA list, there is no forum up yet either.
