About: Im fan of Detriot and Motor City(aka Oldtimer) which were the only 2 good games in this genre, but I always thought they were lacking in detail…
About 6-7 Years ago I thought up a game concept for a car industry type game that would allow you to customize pretty much every aspect of a car and its parts. When I told people about this idea they thought it was cool, but they didn’t think it could be done…
It always was one of my dream game concepts that I never thought would be created. So imagine my suprise when years later I came across this website when I was bored of playing Motor-city one day.
This game is EVERYTHING I dreamed of for a car company game.
I think one of the chalanges to your success is that because so few games of this type were ever made, there are many people who would buy this game that just aren’t aware of its existance.
I think what you guys really need todo is get a major game review site like gamespot to do a preview once the engine builder is released… If this were on the front page of gamespot it would attract tons of people who love cars & tuning.
I dont think I have ever been this excited for the release of a game. So keep up the good work, I think you guys are doing a great job.

About: My computer broke down a couple weeks ago. I can’t afford to buy a new one, so I put together a PC from various parts I found at home. It’s slow as hell, so my games can’t run on it. So I started to browse at old-game sites, where I found my old favourite: “Detroit”.
I’ve installed it and had some fun with it, but hey, that game is really dated now and it’s not detailed enough for a car-freak like me. 
This morning I googled “Detroit” and at the bottom of its Wiki page I’ve found “Automation”! I browsed this site, and I surprised a lot: you guys are making a game, what I’ve been dreaming of for many-many years!
Keep up the good work!
One of my favourite games is “Combat Mission”. It’s also made by a small team: 3-4 people. And it’s the most detailed and most hardcore tactical strategy game ever made! Made by WW2 fans for WW2-fans, not by money-hungry people for 8 year old kids.
I hope “Automation” will be the “Combat Mission” for the car freaks.
Hi Adam, welcome!
Also note, we are WWII freaks too, if this does well enough, we have some WWII related ideas too

Awesome.
If you take the same attention to detail in that game as this one you may very well develope 2/3 of my dream games.
