Super Toy Cars

Super Toy Cars is an arcade racing game and the follow-up to Toy Cars. Just like the original it is based on the concept of Micro Machines where very small cars are driven through everyday environments. The game can be played with a classic top-down view or two third-person perspectives. There is a general career mode, a quick race mode and multiplayer, offline for up four and online for up to eight players.

The career mode consists of eight racing classes unlocked gradually and six events for each. By completing races credits are earned and points. The latter are used to unlock new races. Race modes include classic multi-lap track racing against opponents, time trial, elimination, evade (elimination with mines on the track) and time-based checkpoint races. There are twelve different tracks based on four locations. Credits are used to unlock new cars and buy upgrades. Cars have different statistics based on acceleration, maximum speed, handling, weight, drift and boost. There are different paint jobs and cars can be upgraded one time for the following parts: boost, engine, turbo, tyres, gearbox, weight reduction and brakes. There are sixteen cars in total.

Races often have shortcuts and various obstacles. There are also seven power-ups to collect: oil spill, glue spill, mine, spring trap, boost filling, 8 ball (a giant billiard ball is launched) and missile. By drifting and jumping a boost bar is filled. When full it can be activated to gain extra speed. Drifting is done through a separate key or button. There are two drifting modes that can be defined in the options, one where the key needs to be held down and another where you press it once to start drifting and once more to stop.

The game includes a track editor and through Steam Workshop integration custom tracks can be shared with other players. Races have a a replay mode and there is a short, interactive tutorial where the mechanics are introduced.
