• YAUT 29/06/25: Yet Another Unversioned Hotfix - 29 June 2025

  They call it Hotfix because I'm making these fixes while its really hot outside. Updated DODGE CHALLENGER Job requirements to 100/200/300 (from 50/100/150).

• V1.3.0: Revolutionary Cars - 26 June 2025

  V.1.3.0!If you are reading this with only your shorts on, then understand that me and you currently have a metaphysical connection, because I also only have my shorts on right now. Allow me to use that very same connection as bandwidth internet to transmit this very patch to your house, which mostly aims to reduce the game's difficulty a tiny bit, while also fixing your usual bugs alongside some QoL improvements. The "Quality of your Real Life" (QoyRL) might not be quite affected by this, but rest assured, the "Quality of the Not-So-Real-Illusionary-Life" (QotNSRIL) that is this Video game is very much affected.ChangelogGeneralRestarting during a Weekly will now submit your score instead of having it vanish into the aether.When the CLOCKWORK Badge is active, a visualizer will now show the current slam direction.Increased player enemy-detection hitbox while performing a slam. This affect…

• SPRING SALE and REDLINE CROOKS x SANDRIPPER Bundle! - 13 March 2025

  Welcome back to the season of spring. What do you mean it's still cold? When I went to bring the trash out the other day and had a colored piece of paper next to me, I saw a bee land on it, which is a clear sign that it's spring already. It also resulted in me standing there for 5 minutes because I didn't want to disturb it. To celebrate this particular bee making out with a piece of paper REDLINE CROOKS is 35% off for this year's SPRING SALE. Tell your friends, pastor, family, and potentially incredibly violent ex partner as a means for them to let their violent tendencies out on cars instead of you. Additionally, REDLINE CROOKS has partnered up with SANDRIPPER to create the first and definitely only Indie Triple-A bundle on the Steam platform (Arcade Automotive Armageddon Bundle). If one game about blowing up vehicles to get massive scores was already good, can you imagine how much yo…

• YAUT 20/12/24: Yet Another Unversioned Hotfix - 20 December 2024

  Fixed the weekly resetting on a daily timer instead of a weekly one. This change unfortunately wiped the current weekly entries, but should be all good now.

• V1.2.0: Milk and Crookies - 19 December 2024

  V1.2.0: The "Milk and Crookies" Update is here! Did you know? Santa Claus and REDLINE CROOKS have a lot of things in common. For one, there is the fact that the color RED is firmly denoted in the game's title, and that Santa Claus wears RED. Some may say that this is actually where the similarities end. To this, I can only say that whoever this "Some" guy is should remember the time Santa Claus performed a sick 270° drift while riding over a lemonade stand in the classic Christmas tale "Santa Claus performs a sick 270° drift while riding over a lemonade stand". Maybe that will help in getting my point across. The Milk and Crookies patch marks the second non-hotfix patch to the game and comes with a variety of changes ranging from bug fixes, balancing, and your usual dosis of Quality Of Life to iron out some of the rougher parts of the game. Changelog General Added a variety of new Shopk…

• YAUT 30/11/24: Yet Another Unversioned Hotfix - 30 November 2024

  Fixed the Final Boss having 45000 HP in Gear 1. If you squint really hard a multiplication sign *can* look like a plus sign, you know? Sorry for the bother! Gear 1 (and everything after that) should now be properly achievable.

• V1.1.0: Quality of Life and Fixes - 25 November 2024

  V1.1.0 is here! This is the first proper patch ever since game release, ignoring the bundle of hotfixes. This patch comes with some bug fixes, balancing, and other changes. Changelog General Updated various pieces of text in the game Added new Lesson to Tutorial 1: Ramming. This change will also make it to the Demo version soon. Updated Final Boss Bomb Cars: Now carry missiles, which on defeat by player will shoot and fly backwards to hit the Final Boss. This is a purely visual change, mechanically the fight is the same. Intention here is to make it more obvious and louder what actually damages the boss. Changed requirements for the Nitrogen Hyperfixation job (50% > 50%, 70% > 65%, 90% > 80%) Slightly reduced overall speed gain of the NITRO Badge Balancing After releasing the Harpoon, Big Tuna will now be less affected by collision knockback. This allows it to "pierce" through vehicles…

• Yet Another Unversioned Hotfix #3 - 16 November 2024

  All this patch does is (hopefully) fix the "slow chunk load" bug that would sometimes rear its ugly head. A more substantial patch is in the works, please wait warmly!

  Small Demo Patch to fix up some quirks I've noticed a couple of people had! CHANGELOG: Pause at the end of the Tutorial is now significantly longer.

  REDLINE CROOKS will release NOVEMBER 6TH! Mark it in your calendars, tell your friends, family members, close associates and biggest enemies! At last this game has a confirmed release date instead of sitting on this ambiguously annoying "Q4 2024". Please look forward to it! - Alexander

• DEMO UPDATE: Meadow & QOL - 10 August 2024

  V.0.1.5 is here! If you've been reading these for a while, you might look at the title and think to yourself - wasn't it called like 4 times already that there wouldn't be any more Demo updates? Why is there another? Anyways: Meadow, alternative Zone 2, is now available! This Demo update introduces the alt. Area 2, Meadow, into the Demo. Originally I thought the Demo already had enough, but I figured... why not. This way the demo at least has 4 stages of general variety instead of 3. And we all know video game bosses always take 4 hits, not 3, so that's a good number. A bunch of Quality of Life Changes! Alongside this, I've also polished up some rougher edges and added some additional QOL features to make learning the game a bit easier. This includes a "WRONG WAY" warning if you - get this - drive the wrong way, an arrow that points you back into the road in case you launch yourself out…
