Who's behind the most extreme racing game of 2022? Let's continue our Meet The Team series with an essential member of the team: Preet!

🐜 Preet is our QA Engineer, he hunts down bugs and strives to keep the user experience as smooth as possible.
✨ Favorite level in You Suck at Parking? No less than one called "Perfection"
🎬 When he's not exterminating bugs in the game, Preet is a huge movie enthusiast, and he's joined the 'dog person clan' in the team recently as he adopted this super-duper cute stray dog! 🐕

After this quick hiatus, we're back to continue our Meet the Team series to introduce our fantastic car mechanics - also called: game devs.

🐛🧙‍♂️ Fear not, it's simply Alex, our code sorcerer, and seasoned bug exterminator
✏️ In You Suck at Parking, he's the architect behind the level editor, that our level designers also use to create our not-so-mean maps. So every level you see is a fruit of that labor. GG!
🚨🎲Huge board game enthusiast alert! He's been hooked up on Terraforming Mars these days. Check out an extract of his collection below! See anything you like?

🖌️ Kayla is a 3D artist, a lot of things you see in the game: she probably made them!
💞 She has a love-hate relationship with You Suck at Parking, hands down the game that made her curse and laugh the most (sharing on our Discord helps). Also, see that cool cannon you’re using to reach the snow biome? She made it and enjoyed creating it as she learned a lot.
