Ossu!Poland is not really known for its car production history but if there is a single car out there that gained any global attention it was the FSO Polonez. Produced since 1978, Polonez grew to become a staple of Polish culture. From its appearance in the cult classic Polish tv series 07 zgłoś się to an episode of Top Gear - the legacy of Polonez lives to this day. As a way to prolong its heritage and also pay homage to its classic status, we’re bringing the FSO Polonez to JDM: Japanese Drift Master!Before the last Polonez drove off of the production line in 2002, over 1,000,000 cars had bee

Ossu! It’s no secret that one of the biggest inspirations for JDM was the Initial D franchise. The story of Takumi and friends, the dramatic touge downhill races and the overall focus on drifting on tight corners, became the fuel for our creative process. We grew up watching the show or reading the manga, dreaming of a video game that could provide the same emotions but in a playable format. Years later, in 2025, we released JDM and gathered a wonderful community of players around the game, who shared our sentiment and love for Japan, Japanese cars and street racing in general. It was a dream

It may not sound as much, but building a multiplayer component from scratch in our small team was quite a big feat for us.

Ossu! The last of the cult classic muscle cars that’s still in production and under constant development. The Stallion in 2024 took the turn towards the sports aspect of the car. With a 6-speed manual transmission it’s meant to abuse its raw power on the track.Even though it’s a new car, filled with electronics and gadgets, it continues to gather a lot of attention from petrol-heads. Maybe because it’s the last of its breed or maybe because the fancy, modern dashboard is just an addition to what still feels like an original “pony”, roaring its V8 engine like it used to in the 70s.

Ossu!1969 is often considered the pinnacle of the muscle car era with some of the most recognizable cars driving off the factory lines and into the streets. Amongst them the Roebuck Reaver. For just one year Roebuck decided to give a liftover for the Reaver, changing almost everything about the chassis except for the trunk and the roof. The car got wider and went lower, giving it an even more aggressive, muscular look.The ‘69 model remains one of the most driven golden era cars to this day. Thanks to the car part availability and the sprawling tuning scene, it is a fan favourite for Restomod e
