About the Game

What happens when you fuse a harpoon gun to a tow truck? Twin-stick car harpooning action! Harpoon and reel cars in, then tow them into the recycling crusher before time runs out.

Designed for 1-4 players locally or over Steam Remote Play, get the most points in a versus match to win - even if it means recycling your friends and harpooning through their ropes. Or fend off foes from your extra lives in "Protect your Trucklings" mode and be the last truck driving.

Not feeling like beating up your buddies? Play together in co-op while towing off waves of potential parking perpetrators.


Each stage features different environments and challenges to be aware of, from crumbling statues in Parkin’ Panic, to volcanic eruptions and homing lasers on tropical Volcarnage Island.

Game Features:

• Play in versus mode against other players for points or stock

• Feeling friendly? Take on waves of cars in co-op

• ”Protect your Trucklings” mode in a last truck standing battle

• Surfing cars

• Multiple match customization settings

• Supports Steam Remote Play

• Googly eyes
