- Closing Down - 20 May 2021
Hi everyone, It is to our great sadness, that we need to announce that Fishbowl Interactive is currently in the process of shutting down as a company, and as such effective immediately Burnt Rubber will no longer be available. We would like to thank all our players for their support over the last two years, Burnt Rubber would not have been anywhere near as fun as it was without you guys. Thanks again for playing and keep burning rubber, Fishbowl Interactive Update 23/05/21: Hi we understand that there is some confusion around what this may mean for users who already own Burnt Rubber, please rest assured that you will not lose access to the game. Burnt Rubber also does not use any external online servers, so there should be no changes to your gameplay experience. Thank you.

Hi all! We are happy to report that we have recently released our Phase 2 update! The content you can expect to find in this update includes 10 new tracks, over 25 achievements, and some small bugfixes. In the background, we have been laying down the framework and mechanics for our future tracks and stages to help us achieve our planned timeframe.
