Dev Update #1

Greetings test pilots!

This is the first of what will be regular dev updates to keep you informed of what we are working on and when you can expect to see more content and features added to the Steam Early Access version.

It's been a week since launch and overall we are really happy with the performance of the game so far and really excited to see you jumping on-board and getting involved with development. We've had some great ideas posted and will work these into our development plans moving forward. Keep them coming!

We've released a couple of updates to the game since launch, adding DirectX 11 support, implementing the latest Oculus VR SDK, fixing some minor bugs and tweaking the multi-player code to make it smoother for everyone.

The next big update will come in January, since the team will be taking some well-deserved time out over the holiday period. That doesn't mean work stops completely though and we'll still be monitoring the discussion threads, setting up "Race Against the Devs" multi-player sessions (follow us on Twitter to find out when they occur: @Radial_G) and working in the background to determine the final update details for the January build.

We'll reveal the full details soon but be assured that we are listening to what is most important to you, as well as working on bringing the single player environment over to the Steam Early Access version, updated with all the new features and multi-player support!

We hope you have enjoyed your experience of Radial-G : Racing Revolved so far and will continue to help us spread the word and increase our reach. Remember, you don't need an Oculus Rift to play!

Happy Holidays!

~The Tammeka Team

Radial-G is an essential purchase for all owners of the DK2, the graphics are great looking and really focus on DK2's strengths.

Most PC users will find no issues in maintaining a high frame rate to eliminate any feeling of queasiness that other poorer performing games generate.

The controls are simple enough that if you choose to use the game to Demo your Oculus Rift to friends/family/coworker anybody will be able to pick up a control pad and start playing.

The racing action is high speed frantic fun, a white knuckle chase to the end.

You will find you self smiling a lot as you play this game, that's natural. It's your bodies way of telling you just how much fun you are having.

I just played this for a bit on a DK2 and I think I screamed all through the first race.
MY GOD what an intense experience. Best I can compare it with is a first person Wipeout with devs that clearly know how to develope for the Oculus Rift.

Do note, however, that this is still Early Access so there's only 1 environment with 3 tracks.
Still, if you own a Rift its more than worth the price of admission!

I've played Radial-G since the Kickstarter demo, and I absolutely love this game! It's like a cross between wipEout and Ballistics (remember that?) and it's just so fun to play. Tammeka Games has created the best expression of going fast that is available on Steam, and the early access is only the beginning.

I play this on a normal monitor and it plays absolutely fine. You don't need an Oculus to play, although I can imagine it's awesome when played that way.

Grab your own copy, and let's get some multiplayer going!

Great game, sorta like F-Zero except instead of being on a flat 2-dimensionalish track, you are on a round snake like track which you are free to move and rotate around. Sorta think of a monorail which you can move freely around. Unlike a standard racing track which you may slam against a side wall or guardrail, you are able to rotate freely around the track, allowing for a huge amount of racing space. This creates a need for "driving" skill since unlike a traditional raceway there tends to be very little bottlenecking where you can fight aggressively against your opponents.

Instead, you have to focus on maneuvering around the track, dodging slowdown shields and trying to hit every booster you can, in order to get your highest possible speed.

In it's current state, the game is very fun and feels polished, but there are few tracks and ships to choose from, which is to be expected from an early access title. Due to the lack of "content" at this point, the races can become very repetitive. As the game updates however, we should expect to see more added content, adding for a more unique experience each race.

If you are looking for a racer in which you can immerse yourself, and spend hours playing, look elsewhere for the moment. If you are willing to take the slight lack of content built on top of a quality core and give it a test drive, this is a great title to look into.

I personally look forward to keeping up with updates and trying out the new features as the game becomes more immersive with features, and hope others are willing to do the same.

This is a great game with really good visuals, using this with a dk2 makes for a really great experience. Even without the dk2 its a fun game!

I've been using the DEMO of Radial-G to show off the Oculus Rift to friends. It's a crowd pleaser and something I can show that is actually interactive and a game. Lately I go to work and I start to fantisize about what kind of VR experience I want when I get home... I keep choosing the DEMO of Radial-G. The thrill I get out of the speed of this game is addicting. I finally caved in and bought the full game (early access) and I am not only not ecstatic I did... I'm freaking out how much they have already improved it! It's F-Zero come to life! Anyway... I'm going back into VR. I highly recommend this if you're an Oculus Rift owner.

Easy to pick up, hard to get on top! I tried it both on my 27 inch pc monitor and also occulus dk2. BOth expirience are different but the fun factor is the same. Love it on the DK2 direct mode and works fine no hassles.

This is a great game for the DK2! I fully recommend it.

Not many people playing online though, but I'm hopeful more will get this game eventually since It's pretty bare bones right now. I'm excited for the future tracks and updates!

So far, So good !! Runs straight onto the Oculus Rift DK2 from the launch options in the Steam Library window with ABSOLUTELY NO FUSS and it looks B-E-A-utiful !!
I am not running an amazing set up: I5 cpu, 8gb RAM, Nvidia gtx 750 2GB.

As I write this, there are only 3 Ship Types and 3 Tracks but if you visit the steam forum you will see that not only is there a lot more planned for this game but the developers seem to be listening to what the community have in the way of input towards the game content.

This is a Nice, Fast Adrenaline Fest !!

Despite needing to better implement Direct 2 Rift this is my goto game for showing the how awesome the Rift can be.
Its almost flawless in its execution.
Neither me nor anyone else I've shown it to has ever felt nausea. However the recent update causes judder in direct 2 rift mode, but changing to extended makes it better (please fix direct 2 rift mode though).
This game has the potential to be every bit as awesome and fun as games like F-ZeroX and Wipeout, and its very much getting there. 20 more ships and 20 more tracks (I like variety) and it will be the best space-racing game I know, and well within my top 5 games ever.
Also something similar to FZero-Xs bump right and left would be cool or a Wipeout type weapon system, anything where we can really ruin your fellow racers day would be great
So yea A+++ and I'm looking forward to smashing you off mah damn tube in multiplayer.

Full First Impressions here: http://gamebitplus.co.uk/2014/12/18/first-impressions-radial-g-racing-revolved/

Summary: It’s still very much a work in progress, and it’s very limited with the amount of content (expected for a game that's only very recently hit early access), but from what I’ve seen, I see no reason to believe that it can’t go on to be an excellent racing alternative to the more realistic racers like Assetto Corsa and Project CARS.

Will update as more content is added!
