We're excited to announce that our latest update introduces several new features to enhance your gaming experience. Here's what's new:
Xbox Controller Support: 🎮 Now, immerse yourself in the game with the comfort of your Xbox controller.
Meet The Drifters: 🌍 Introducing "The Drifters" - characters you can interact with. While initially friendly, you wouldn't want them as foes. Defeat them for rich loot, but be warned, they're not easy targets!
Revamped Trading System: 🚀 In our Spacestation, traders have been organized into categories for your convenience:
Weapons Trader 🗡️
Armor Trader 🛡️
Furniture Trader 🛋️
Farming Trader 🌾
General Goods Trader 🛒
Trade Manager 📊
Each trader specializes in initial items for their category, allowing for a swift start or unique trading strategies. Trader Compass Icons: 🧭 For easier navigation, Compass icons have been added for all trader NPCs. Find them under the Yellow Basket symbol in Spacestation for category-specific shopping.
Special Focus: The Trade Manager
The Trade Manager introduces a dynamic trading mechanism where you can buy and sell exotic plants, minerals, and ancient relics from different planets or distant lands. 🌌💰 For instance, AnticRelic might be selling for 1300 Coins on Galactica but could fetch 1700 Coins on Planet Quantix.
Risk-taking traders can buy in bulk and transport goods to where they're more valuable, turning a profit. However, keeping an eye on the daily market fluctuations is crucial for maximizing your gains.
Dive back into [Game Name] and experience these new features. Whether you're looking to engage in combat, trade, or simply explore, there's something for everyone in this update.
Your adventure awaits, enhanced and ready for you. Let us know what you think about these updates!

I know that you've all been waiting a long time for this...some of you, a VERY long time!!...but, the long wait for Super Duper Multitasking is finally almost over! It's coming soon, along with new minigames, Missions, modes, and other mayhem...more than double the gameplay of the original game!
I would like to formally announce that Super Duper Multitasking will officially release in February 2025! As previously promised, it will be released as an update to the existing Super Multitasking, meaning all existing owners will get it for FREE! (For everyone else, the price will go up.) Worth a mention: the free-to-play Super Multitasking GO! will become available on the same day!
If you want to grab Super Multitasking on sale before the upgrade, you just *may* have a few chances to do that until the end of 2024. Once those sales end, the game will NOT be discounted again until after the upgrade (and price increase). The best way to save money will be to buy the game before the upgrade, so don't wait too long =)
Here is a timeline of notable planned events over these next few months:
October-November 2024: Alpha testing period. During this time, I'll be giving a small number of existing owners access to the new version.* Interested? Send me a message via my Web site, http://yyrgames.com!
December 2024-January 2025: Beta testing period. ALL existing owners will have the opportunity to opt into the Beta during this time!*
February 2025: Super Duper Multitasking releases, replacing Super Multitasking for all existing owners; the price goes up for everyone else. Don't worry about losing features; the new version has everything the old one did, plus a whole lot more!!
Over these next few months, I'll be posting articles and videos along with a new version of the game manual, to give you a sense of all the cool stuff that's coming. You also may notice new Achievements being added to the game that are not yet obtainable, but they will be soon!!
Thanks as always for your support. I hope you're looking forward to Super Duper Multitasking!
* Warning: If you choose to play the alpha or beta versions, your save data will be updated to the Super Duper Multitasking format. Do not attempt to go back to the current release version of Super Multitasking, or you may encounter undesired behavior, including data loss.

The Festival Playlist from Back to the 90’s really is all that.
Get jiggy with a collection of four cars designed to represent 90s automotive design to the fullest.
Two out of the four cars coming in this update are thought to be majorly customized coming with different parts to add into your creations and make them your own.
1997 Toyota Soarer 2.5 GT-T
Earn 20 PTS during Week 1 “Summer” Season on the Back to the 90’s Festival Playlist. Available from October 10 until October 17.
90s extravagance car-sonified, the 1997 Toyota Soarer was the Japanese brand’s most tech advanced addition to their catalogue during that decade, being equipped with an EMV touchscreen and one of the first to use an integrated GPS.
Luxury and tech ooze from this car, but is it lacking muscle? AS IF! The Soarer is fitted with a 1JZ-GTE engine, meaning it has a straight 6, 2.5-liter heart beating underneath its hood producing 278 bhp and 279 lb-ft of torque driven to all four wheels.
Experience what sports luxury looked and felt like in the 90s: totally fast, and totally customizable. The Soarer comes with the Origin Lab front bumper, rear bumper, side skirts and Forza front bumper and rear wing to create your ideal version!
1998 Mitsubishi FTO GP Version R
Earn 20 PTS during Week 2 “Autumn” Season on the Back to the 90’s Festival Playlist. Available from October 17 until October 24.
The 1998 Mitsubishi FTO GP Version R is a revised and improved version of the regular FTO: fitted with new bumpers, side skirts, and rear wing to improve aerodynamics and an upgraded suspension, differential and thicker antiroll bars to improve handling. If that combination is not to your liking, you have a selection of Forza and Bozz Speed body parts to customize it to your preference.
To get this car moving, it was equipped with a 2-liter V6 engine (one of the smallest V6s produced at the time). This car can reach 0-100 kph in just over 6 seconds and finish a quarter mile in 15 seconds.
As with plenty of things in the 90s, this car’s aesthetics are complemented by stickers. Enjoy showing off the Version R decals by unlocking this car!
1990 Aston Martin Lagonda
Earn 20 PTS during Week 3 “Winter” Season on the Back to the 90s Festival Playlist. Available from October 24 until October 31.
Aston Martin’s second attempt at designing a four-door saloon came in with the 1990 Aston Martin Lagonda, a car with an interior so fly to add to your collection.
Inside this car, you’ll find premium leather and advanced electronic instruments all over. In fact, this car was one of the first ones to include a digital panel. The outside of this car received a redesign for the 1990 edition, having more rounded corners while keeping the boxy look.
Put the Lagonda’s 5.3-liter V8 engine and drive as the fresh prince of the Horizon Festival, unlocking it for 20 PTS on the Winter Season.
1996 Subaru SVX
Earn 20 PTS during Week 4 “Spring” Season on the Back to the 90’s Festival Playlist. Available from October 31 until November 7.
The decade that saw the birth of extreme sports needed a car to match its radical attitude. Hence, the 1996 Subaru SVX was born, because what is more extreme than a car with a roof inspired by airplanes?
The SVX featured a 3.3-liter engine that produced 231 horsepower and 228 lb-ft of torque delivered straight to every wheel thanks to its AWD system. An almost stock version of this car took over the Alcan Winter Rally in 1991, driving all the way from Seattle to the Arctic Circle and back. That’s not even the most impressive fact about this Subaru! The SVX’s aerodynamics are so excellent that the car’s drag coefficient is 0.29, which is very close to that of hyper cars of the era.
What’s Next
Next month we’ll see new reward cars added to the Festival Playlist as well as new clothing items, collectibles, and EventLab props for your characters on Horizon Track Day!
