Ludum Dare project: Transdimensional Wipeout-style Racing

Community Showcase

Hello everyone! :slight_smile:

Sythen and me have decided to team up for the jam portion of Ludum Dare 30. The theme of this LD is “Connected Worlds”, and initially we drew a total blank while brainstorming for game ideas. Then somehow we landed on the idea of a wipeout racer in which you can switch between the real world and a virtual dimension.

Here’s a glory shot:

And here’s a work-in-progress video of what we managed to get done in the last two days:

Tomorrow is mainly for adding a menu and HUD, replacing the rest of the placeholder assets, sounds, and general polish. The collision handling needs a severe overhaul… not pictured in that video are the countless times we managed to throw ourselves off the track or drove through the ground :wink:

Feedback is welcome! Hope you like it :slight_smile: 19h to go… But first, a little sleep.

<3, Kashaar

UPDATE: Project is done! Better video to follow after we’ve got some more rest. In the meantime, download it here:

I’d play this a lot.

Can I suggest you put a cockpit camera?

Great work Kashaar and in only 2 days! Can’t wait to see the final project.

It’s done! Terribly unoptimized and full of bugs, but you can play it if you like :slight_smile:

We all need a bit of rest now, but might even revisit this later.

I had really great fun working on this project, lots of cool things to add to the portfolio with a bit of retouch. Thank you Kashaar for getting us all together, it was so .
Remind me not to drink so much Monster next time.

Cheers! :smiley:
