Rapidracoon - Racing Game Wip

[EvilDragon]

Live! released a first preview of a racing game they're currently working on.

And, holy crap! I can't say anything more!

Check out a video on YouTube!

More info about this on the official site.

Wow, looks awesome!

 

[slaanesh]

Reminds me of the old 16-bit classic "Powerdrome"

 

[semyaza]

Wow! Something else to stop the negativity surrounding the gp2x.

 

[DBH]

I want !!! ... Seriously a proper 3D racing game on the GP2X about bloody time!

 

[Yod4z]

it's only 350 polygons actualy but will be much more in final version ^^ only first processor of the GP2x (920) is used and the 940 will be use to play sound

There is no negativity surrounding the GP2X. You've never had it so good.

EDIT for on-topicness: the game looks really cool. Is that demo actually running on a GP2X, btw? It's not clear.

Guess the answer for this is yes, but am gonna ask anyway, is it commercial? am really interested in having this, Wipeout is (as most psx titles) still unplayable on psx4gp2x.
If am not mistaken, there are no homebrew games in the category "racing" in the archive too.

I wonder what hoppened to this other Wipeout clone.

I think it was called "a toda pastilla" or so and waas supposed to be released for GP32 and GP2X.

Powerdrome was nice. I have spent many hours with that on my Amiga, maybe it was a bit too hard

Yes, I was wondering about that too. The archive has the teaser for that:

http://archive.gp2x.de/cgi-bin/cfiles.cgi?0,0,0,0,23,937

Watching the video for that, there's definitely no in-game footage.

Let's keep our fingers crossed for this one though - it's looking very promising

 

[Manwe]

Wow, if it could gave a stable framerate with enimies, it would be really great GP2X game.

 

[ukko]

Thanks !!

This video is taken from the TV-out of the GP2X!
What you see is what get.

Ukko/live!

 

[tmb_ayebe]

Oh Boy! I loves me me racing games!

Sorry, proper grammer will be resumed once I've finished drooling...

If the developers are reading this, please put me down as a vote for "arcady" rather than "realistic" handling. Ta!

 

[lubidog]

Bloody hell....

 

[XaMMaX90]

Looks really awesome!!! Can't wait to play in it!!

 

[reaper79]

Looks very nice, can't wait to see more.

 

[Hippo]

WOW! Damn that looks good. Lets hope its one of those programs that raises the bar for other developers.

Looks fantastic, that's all I can say. Commercial or not, I'm getting this, that much is sure! To satisfy my personal curiosity, how did you handle the graphics for this game? Did you write your own polygon fill routines in ASM via minimal lib, or what? Because the speed is amazing, it feels incredibely smooth.
