The Undercut: Racing Manager

This game has a lot of potential, but I see a lot of flaws and holes in this game that keep me from recommending it to others What is the TV rating metric based off? There could be 7 DNFS and 65 overtakes in a race and they still rate it a procession. The voice and language used in explaining the tutorial is very obviously AI generated, which makes me wonder how much of this game was vibe coded. In my few hours of playing this game I have only seen 1 major crash that has brought out the safety car. I expect weather to be implemented in the near future to spice things up a bit, but in its current state the racing is extremely one dimensional and flat. I can use the same one stop hard strategy to get myself 3rd place consistently without fail. It feels like every race, barring the shape of the circuit, the results mostly pan out the same way. I know this is an early access game, but at its current price-point, I find it extremely hard to recommend this to anyone.

Though there is many things left to be improved, I have played this for 68 hours in the first 10 days. I love that every new save is different, from how lucky you get trying to sign up with sponsors and suppliers, whether your tyres have a hidden positive or negative trait attached to them, the amount of part problems you face and the positive and negative traits that you may recieve once investigated, did you hire amazing hidden talent to drive your cars or are they posers that crash constantly... Hope this game finds enough buyers to allow it to grow to its potential.

really fun game but it isn't without it problem like small text and development take a lot of time and workers there isn't variety of the tyer / engine / oil you have 5 options but 4 are bad or mid and one is very good and for the sponsors there should be more for the secondary option and at last a good feature would be tell drivers defensive more i hope the game succeed it has a very big potential

Great game. A bit rough around the edges sometimes but has a lot of potentiel. I'm exited to see how it develops.

Played for hours, won multiple championships over multiple seasons. -TLDR- Buy this if you like racing management games. Great game to play so far, needs a major visual overhaul (requires an artist and a designer), a lot of potential to be a top racing management game. -Game Mechanics- Brilliant systems in place. The racing is better than any official F1 Manager I played. Maintaining and improving the team and the car is great. -Visuals- Obviously needs work. Artwork looks like AI. Store front, main screen, UI, tracks, everything needs work. It's clear the dev focused on making a great game first before making it look pretty. -Random- Love the fact every new save is completely different. You never know what situation you'll find yourself in with sponsors, drivers and the cars. Every season is somewhat different. You don't know which team would all of a sudden be fighting for the championship... if any does. -The start of the game is too crucial- The very first preseason at the start of the game is VERY IMPORTANT. You screw it up, you might as well start a new save. If you don't get the suppliers as partnerships, start a new save.

Very promosing, fun game! ai still needs some balancing but the creator is very active and listens to feedback. With the easy modding this has potential to be an amazing game!
