A Better Sleep System

Hey everyone!

A good night's sleep is important... even when you're running a car rental business.
As the day comes to an end, customers will eventually stop visiting your rental lot.
The evening becomes the perfect time to finish any remaining work, whether that's cleaning cars, repairing damage, or preparing vehicles for upcoming rentals. But deciding when to go to bed isn't always so straightforward.

Since customers return their vehicles at different times throughout the day and night, simply sleeping until the next morning could mean missing important moments. Sometimes all you need is a few hours of rest before the next car arrives. That's why we've introduced a flexible sleep system.

Instead of automatically skipping to the next morning, you'll be able to choose exactly when you want to wake up. This gives you much more control over your schedule, allowing you to plan your day around upcoming vehicle returns and make better use of your time. It's a small feature, but one that makes managing your rental business feel much more natural and gives you the freedom to organize each day the way you want.

Don't forget to wishlist Car Rental Simulator, and stay tuned for more updates!

P.S. Our friends from Perfect Circle Team have just released the demo of their game! Be sure to check it out and experience Winston Springs from a whole new perspective. And if you enjoy it, don't forget - the full version launches on September 17!

Building a proper rental business takes time, and when you first arrive at your lot, things are far from perfect. Before you can afford major upgrades, you'll be working on a rough, sandy surface that has definitely seen better days.

Every rental business has to start somewhere, and at the beginning of Car Rental Simulator, you won't have access to a fully equipped car wash just yet. Your first cleaning setup is much simpler. You'll be working with a small handheld pressure washer, which means you need to bring the car to a designated washing spot before getting to work. We wanted to make this area easy to rec…
