My Trackmania sub expired so I did something questionable… I made my own racing game.

After ~2 years of work, Tiny Cars is finally out on Crazy Games 🚗💨
25 tight, low-poly tracks. Precision drifting. Ghost runs. Leaderboards.

Give it a try👉https://t.co/hPBBeVV8cd

Tight corners. Fast runs. Just pure mini racing chaos🚗

Feels like the final look of the game is starting to take shape. And that’s exciting🙂

@walaber Ahah, reminded me of the GTA V's "skill-test" maps

We’re building test-level blockouts right now🚧

At the same time, we're integrating 3D models for interactive objects.

@devsanddorks Just one more solo dev checking in! I'm currently creating an arcade racing game. Really appreciate you hosting this!

Working on my 3rd iteration of the save format.
Here’s how the data changed step by step and how I managed to shrink file size drastically.
Tests were made on a 23s track.

Right now, data is recorded every 0.05s.
Tried 0.1s interpolation still looks smooth, but needs more testing.
Result: file size reduced almost 3× compared to the first version.

#3 (43.7 KB, current format)
[0.0575,70.1,1.2,11.0,1.4E-07,0.7071,1.01E-05,0.7071,2.4,0.0,0]

Third (current) version:
- Fully numeric array
- No string keys
- All booleans packed into one byte via bit flags
This gave the biggest compression boost.

You can make it good later
