Hey everyone!

Update 3 is now live for Cartoon Crime, bringing a major set of improvements and new features across the entire game.

This update introduces the new Steam Co-op System, alongside significant improvements to graphics, shadows, character models, AI, world design, interiors, roads, buildings, and several core gameplay systems.

Steam Co-op

Steam Co-op is now available!

You can create a co-op lobby and invite your friends directly through the lobby to play Cartoon Crime together.

The co-op system is still new and needs some additional polish, so your feedback is very important to us. We’ll continue improving synchronization, stability, vehicles, activities, player interactions, and the overall multiplayer experience.

If you encounter any bugs or issues, please report them here:
