Kids Car Racers received a much overdue update last week for Android & iOS. Update, now live! Including a New Fantasy Themed Scene and a much improved GUI that is more intuitive to kids. I also picked a more friendly main menu theme music.

Train Sim New Trains and Menu
Although I had the Acela Express model ready for a while, I did not get a chance to ad it to Train Sim in the last update . Adding the Indian Scene was already a huge story and I wanted to make sure I limit the amount of changes in a single release.
So over the last 2 weeks I focused on adding the Acela Express & the Southern Pacific 4449. to Train Sim. I think you will agree that the quality of these Trains is really awesome!
I also spend some time improving the Main Menu for Train Sim. The important change here is that the scenes are now represented by text and picture, making it far more kid friendly. (This has been on my backlog for a long time.)
These changes are now live on Android & Amazon, and waiting for review on iOS. I should have the Windows Store & Phone version live within the next week or two.
Trains & Dinosaurs
Its been a busy few weeks. First I updated Train Sim with 2 (yes 2) new Trains; Class 91 & Bombardier Talent. If that was not enough I also added a new Train Selector and fixed a bunch of bugs.
I am proud to say that Train Sim now features 44 Trains. Thats 44 high quality realistic trains with full 3D cabins and custom sounds. This update is now available on Android, Amazon & iOS.
I have to say Train Sim came a long way in just over 2 years, I can only imagine where it will be in 2 more.
If that was not enough I also posted an Update to Dinosaur Sim. Although Dinosaur Sim is a fairly recent addition to my game lineup, it has proven to be very popular. So this week I added 2 new Dinosaurs (Styracosaurs & Kentrosaurus) to Dinosaur Sim. I am happy to say that this update is also already available on Android & iOS with Amazon coming soon.
I am also working on a Windows 10 version of Dinosaur Sim, I may be able to submit it next week.

Train Sim Update
Last week I posted a new version of Train Sim for Android, and Amazon. This update features Double Engines which is one of the features most requested by Train Sim users I also took the opportunity to add Game Controller Support. This is not a popular request but it does open Train Sim to devices that support Game Controllers such as Amazon TV or Xbox One. Please let me know how the controller works on Android game controllers. Lastly I fixed the direction of steam when trains go backwards.
As always the iOS and Windows 10 update will come slightly after the Android releases.
Car Crashers “Car Bowling” Update
Car Crashers Update is now live on Google Play Store. This new update features an new “Car Bowling” scene as well as an improved user interface.
Publishing to multiple platforms
Ok so I have spent the last week porting the new versions of my games to various platforms. Here is my list of accomplishments:
- The newest version of Train Sim got ported to iOS & Amazon Stores
- The newest version of Flight Sim got published to iOS & Amazon Stores
- Paint the World has been submitted to Amazon and is awaiting release.
- Dinosaur Sim also got submitted to iOS and is awaiting release.
I still have to build the new version of Train Sim for Windows Store & Windows Phone.
Need More Coffee!

Train Sim update for Android is now Live, this update includes:
- New WAP-7 Locomotive with new Cars
- New Steam/Smoke Affect for Steam Engines
- Fixed Incorrect Speed showing compared to Real top Speed.

Flight Sim Update 2 New Airplanes
Flight Sim for Android has been updated with 2 new airplanes and many improvements and bug fixes. This update brings the total number of airplanes to 16. My goal for this year is to bring the number of airplanes to 20 so I think I am right on track. As always these new airplanes are available for free and there are no in-app purchases in Flight Sim.
WHAT’S NEW
-Added DC-7 & Beriew A40 Airplanes
-Improved Horizon and Cloud Cover
-Improved Cessna 182 Model
-Added Options for Graphics Quality & System of Measurement (Metric/Imperial)
WAP-7 Preview
My graphic artist send me an in progress preview of the WAP-7 Indian Railways Engine for an upcoming release of Train Sim. There is still allot of work he has to do on the interior of the Train, but as you can see its looking great already.
Indian trains are frequently requested by Train Sim users, often with a daily reminder. I am happy o be able to add this train to Train Sim in the near future
At this point I am guessing I am about 4 weeks a
way from having this train published as I
am also working on a new game (more information coming soon) so please don’t email me every day asking when its ready 🙂
Train Sim Updated iOS, Amazon, Windows Store
The reason that I always publish to Google Play/Android first, is that the updates are almost instant and always available the same day. All the other platforms take longer, between 1-7 days. Even longer if the update gets rejected for something silly.
This last update to Train Sim was especially important because of the major improvement to sound effects, so I wanted to publish these changes ASAP. I am happy to announce that this new version of Train Sim with improved sounds is now available for iOS, Amazon Store & Windows Store. The only remaining platform I still have to update is Windows Phone. However Windows Phone affects a very small % of the player base so at this point over 99% of Train Sim fans have access to the newest version.
