Hey all – sorry for the lack of recent updates!
We decided that we’re going to switch to a video log as opposed to a textual update. Here’s our first one.
Also – if you’re reading this – here’s your chance to win a copy of Race The Sun! Leave a comment for us below to enter, and we’ll pick one randomly and announce the winner next week. Maybe you have a question about Race the Sun or one of our other projects?
Stay tuned for next week – we have some huge stuff coming up!
Race the Sun is starting to look really nice! I think it would be nice to have some sort of “endless” mode, for those who just want to test their skills.
Hey Reed, thanks for the feedback. The game actually is endless! Or did you mean a mode that doesn’t progressively get harder?
I’ve been playing your game on Kong and visited your website. I have decided that instead of spending my 20 dollar allowance that im getting in 2 weeks, i will instead by the Preorder pack 2 of Race the Sun. Really fun game, keep up the good work and keep it simple unlike minecraft. Minecraft is still fun but its adding some features that take away from it.(looking at you hunger bar)
Hey Michael, thanks for your support! Our aim is definitely to keep the game simple, and to listen to feedback from customers like you.
Actually watched and listened to the vlog this time instead of commenting. Will vote for you guys on Steam so i can buy my friends a copy and have them enjoy it as well. Multiplayer would be nice, sorta who could travel the farthest/fastest without smashing into the gradually increasing obstacles. Are you gonna add color into the game? By color i mean a slight hint of hue to the environment, such as the sky having a slight blueish tone in the gray. Can’t wait to see the bomb sequence you keep mentioning also. Are you ever going to implement mouse control as a choice for movement? Would be nice to use the mouse to move and click for the action, like jumping. It would be nice to customize the ship we use, sorta have an option to custom paint it with our own designs. Just some things i’m curious about.
Cool game! Maybe in the full version you could add some more planes, like a faster but less agile etc. See you soon on Steam!
Fist of all, am I allowed to enter the lottery of your game, because I’ve already bought the Pack II.
Anyways here is my comment:
Can you add a mode or cheat that decreases the amount of obstacles in the later regions, so 5 and later. I’ve played 78 rounds in the downloaded game so far and reached only 3 sunsets. My stats on Kongregate a better, but just a little bit.
Hey, Ichsehêtotemenschen yep you’re entered by commenting. If you win, you can give a copy to a friend
Our plan is actually go to the other direction – to make it harder with each successive round. However here’s a tip: If you’re trying to reach sunsets faster for a particular objective, it may be easiest to *avoid* catching speed boosts. Good luck!
Really curious about the full version, I really like the simple, fun arcade style of the game, some more depth with more upgrades and stuff will make it go from great to amazing!
Hi, really like the game, playing it on Kongregatre. It would be even better if you added eyefinity support. I don’t know hard would be to code this and I’m aware that not so many people have an eyefinity setup, but regardless, it would be awesome
I’ve noticed the music tends to change with the situation and environment.. or.. at least the latter, are you planning to go any further with that? (Like, having a bunch of different tracks that get more faster paced when you’re speeding closer to obsicals?) It’s always been the small aesthetic things that I’ve loved so far. Sense the game play is really fun and simple. Like someone mentioning flying over new terrain like water and the like.
Awesome! Keуp еру пщщв цщкл:)
By the way, I noticed some “feature”, when I’m using Jump in the middle of another Jump – game freezes. Is it a known bug, or? Thx in advance!(I got pack 1 for about 2 weeks ago)
why hello there.
i have really liked this game since i saw it in the new games section on kongregate. can’t wait for that level editor!
