Smash ‘N’ Survive is a demolition derby style game made by the independent developer Version2 Games.
While they have done their best and had a lot of good ideas, they lacked that little something when it came to execution and polish. Now I do know there is a content patch due out in April to add the games online multiplayer, I hope they take the oportunity to throw some bug fixes in as well.
