Press release:
Leuven, Belgium, Wednesday 14th September 2022.
The Leuven-based (Belgium) indie games developer Happy Volcano are today very happy and excited to announce that their top-down racer “You Suck at Parking”, is now available for PC (via Steam) and Xbox (via the Microsoft Store)! Crucially also debuting on Game Pass for both platforms at the same time.

Also in development for PlayStation and Nintendo Switch – with launches on those platforms set to follow in 2023 – “You Suck at Parking” comprises both single-player and online multiplayer modes, offering players the world’s most extreme parking experience and the only racing game where, uniquely, the goal is to come to a stop. Success is all about racing against the clock as players dash, drift, and drag their handbrakes as they slam into parking spots in quick time.

The game’s aforementioned multiplayer mode – which will allow four players to take on each other in a full-on parking party – features a total of 60 wild multiplayer levels on rotation on top of the 100 solo levels with ever-increasing difficulty also on offer. Happy Volcano can also confirm its intention to refresh the levels on offer in play every two weeks, with fresh ones delivered for the foreseeable.

“Launch day is here, and we’re so excited not only to hit both Xbox and PC with You Suck at Parking™, but also to do so on Game Pass on day one,” says David Prinsmel, Game Director.

“But there’s more to come, not only with launches on PlayStation and Nintendo Switch next year, but in continuous new content for the existing releases every two weeks as well.”

In You Suck at Parking™, players can:

Speed through stages navigating obstacles aplenty before hitting the designated parking spots, all whilst somehow keeping cool, calm, and collected in the process.
Unlock Parking Tokens with their parking skills that serve up new customization options to pimp your ride with.
Climb the global leaderboards and prove to your friends that you truly do have the power to stop. Maybe not the world, but a car, at least.
Experience an ever-growing, always-expanding, forever-changing game, where more cars, more biomes, more tracks, and more customisation options are regularly added to the roster.

A physical edition of You Suck at Parking™ on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation and Xbox will also race onto store shelves in 2023, courtesy of Fireshine Games. Formerly known as Sold Out, Fireshine Games is an established publisher of physical and digital titles, and a leading boxed partner who works extensively with indie developers to help bring their games to physical retail.

Happy Volcano can also announce it is working with LifePack for the first season of You Suck at Parking™, starting today and ending on Wednesday 30th November, 2022. LifePack is a gaming charity that focuses on tackling child malnutrition. Players will be able to purchase a LifePack premium cosmetics bundle in the store, with all proceeds going to the charity.

You Suck at Parking launches on PC and Xbox (including Game Pass on both platforms) on Wednesday 14th September 2022 – with a launch on Nintendo Switch and PlayStation following in 2023 – for $19.99/€19.99/£16.99.
