• Make your level
  
• When selecting the name with the dial, choose the thumbnail button in the top right
  
• Take a picture from the level!

Tip: Move the camera angle for more fun perspectives! 🦅
Also tip: If you create a little area that is separate from the level, you can make some real funky patterns with the items... 🎨

Now that you've JUST learned how to make a thumbnail

• Make a level with a palette from the ICE TO MEET YOU Special
  
• Make a creative/fun/funny thumbnail for your level
  
• Share your level on the Steam Community Page here or post it in #contest on our Discord[discord.gg] and our panel of experts will check out the thumbnail for your level
  
• Bonus points if the level itself uses the ice mechanics in innovative ways!

⭐ Good luck! ⭐


There was a misalignment between Steam achievements in Episode 1 that should be patched now! Please, let us know in the Community Posts or on Discord if anything pops up that makes you go 'HMM' and not in the fun weird gameplay but in broken gameplay way.

OVER AND ICE,

Hello dear car-nnoisseurs!

Here's some exciting patches, bug fixes and QoL updates for WHAT THE CAR? 🌟

Take a deep breath, find a comfortable way to sit, stand or float in the air and then take a read through the report ⏬


The tutorial levels are now:

• JUST A NORMAL CAR?
  
• CAR WITH LEGS
  
• CAR WITH TOO MANY LEGS
  
• CAR WITH JUMPS
  
• CAR WITH VERY LARGE LEGS
  
• BEAR WITH ME

Each of these have gotten a new make-over visually and we tweaked the controllers.

• There’s a new transition scene between tutorial and the first episode ⭐
  
• Certain levels have been removed from Episode 1 and integrated into the Tutorial instead
  
• New decorative scenarios and dialogue added to the surroundings in Episode 1
  
• Changes to the navigation of Episode 1
  
• New UI for dialogues alert (see bottom gif for example)

Part of this is also the transition between the episodes! Now, instead of getting a bear on top of CAR and this bear unlocking the computer to the next episode, it does so right away, with the new Episode Elevator!

• New ‘Episode Elevator’ - a much quicker way of navigating between episodes. Enter the Elevator and scroll to select the Episodes as they unlock!
  
• New Hypezones for each Episode, now in the main room
  
• It also gives an overview of which levels you have completed and what kind of crown you got in the Episodes 👑

Edit: Yes, this means some of the secrets of the dungeon travel has been moved... Time to find the new spots 👀

• Did you have trouble publishing a level?
  You should be able to let loose your creations into the world now! (Please let us know if this is not the case after downloading the update!)
  
  
• The was a paint splatter drawing issue in the Party Episode - you should be able to draw as many… bananas… as you want now!
  
• Fix to the navigation in Episode 3: WORKING, where certain spawn points would lock you if you jumped off the train.
  
• Fix to make it easier getting to the SKULL LEVELS in Episode 3: WORKING via the train

• Fix bug where elevator bear would be invisible in unlock sequence
  
• Fix to remove conveyor belt
  
• Fix to UI of pages in the Card Book
  
• Fixed shiny material (it’s NOT shiiineeyy ✨)
  
• Removed bananas from Screen Falling animation
  
• Checked cell overload before releasing a prop from a Move Car in the Level Maker
  
• Moved the Guide Bear position
  
• Fix to animator for bear on the horsespring Jump Hypezone
  
• Fixed error for build tests
  
• Fixed bug where remix pads would show as completed with the same crown as their original level, even if player had not played any remix
  
• Added CAR WITH LARGE LEGS palette in Episode 1
