What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We are a small team. There is a lot we would like to do with this game. We think the best way to make this game the best we can is with the feedback of players who love this genre. As the game sits now, it is very playable and fun, though we realize there is still much to do to bring it to the higher standard gamers expect. We plan to bring many more features such as more game modes, customizability, improvements to audio, environments, AI and more.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Our goal is to have the game completed within the 1st quarter of 2022.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“
    [*Completed features*More games modes*More Vehicles*More tracks*User track editor*Local Multiplayer]
”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game is playable in single player racing with AI, Time Trial and Free Ride modes.
It also has these modes available in online Multiplayer.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We plan to raise the price once we leave early access.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We will be using Steam services as well to allow our player base to give us feedback on our game as well as have a space to discuss and interact with other players.”

About This Game

'Wide Open' was born out of a love for old-school, top-down offroad racing games. Offroad racing has come a long way since the days of the 8 bit and 16 bit systems and this game intends to reflect those evolutions. With a fully deformable terrain, you can be sure that no lap will be like the last. You can enjoy timing big jumps and drifting corners. There are many terrain types like asphalt, dirt, sand, mud, and more! Numerous tracks are available and more will be on their way.

Features

Over 64 tracks!
Each track is unique in that they all have different soil types and can range from large, fast tracks to tight stadium tracks.

Real time terrain deformation
Each track features unique soil types that deform under the wheels of each vehicle. The terrain changes rapidly so no two laps are the same. Soil types include mud, loam, sand, hard-packed clay, and many others.

Multiple vehicles
Currently, there are six vehicles to choose from, each with different handling characteristics so you can choose the vehicle that suits you the best.

Replay system
With our new replay system, you can relive your best finishes and your worst crashes. There are four camera modes available so you can get the angle you are looking for.

Camera modes
The game features a fully adjustable orbital, top-down camera as well as a follow camera for those who want to use it.
