JDM: Japanese Drift Master Physics Overhaul Update Now Available

Curveball Games and Gaming Factory have announced the release of a full physics overhaul update for JDM: Japanese Drift Master across all platforms.

In a message to the community, the developer had this to say:

"JDM has been, is, and will be first and foremost a passion project for us that we want to continue evolving and pushing forward. We’re working as fast as we can but we will never be able to compete with upcoming content on the same level as some of the AAA games... We can only promise that we’re giving everything that we have for JDM."
