Waarom vroegtijdige toegang?

'This project is a one-man operation from the start. I have been developing it while at the same time building a small community. Community feedback is very important for some development decisions, so the final game may differ greatly. The community will decide which new features will be top of the list as the game improves and evolves.'

Hoelang blijft dit spel ongeveer in vroegtijdige toegang?

'Around 16-24 months'

Hoe gaat de volledige versie verschillen van de versie met vroegtijdige toegang?

'There are lots of room for improvement at this stage. We plan to implement a totally new rider model based in ragdoll physics. This will add realism and unlock crashes. I think that having a proper crash system would add so much fun and depth to the game.

Other content that we plan to add progressively:
- More mountains with a variety of tracks
- New bikes, riders, helmets and kits to completely custom your looks
- Leaderboards so players can compete online
- Better animations
- Bike tuning
- Championship Series'

Wat is de huidige staat van de versie met vroegtijdige toegang?

'Right now we have three tracks, with more to come soon. You can do free laps, or activate the timing and race on them. There is a replay editor that you can use to create video parts with your best shots showing off your skills.

Also there is a Line Editor, so you can find the fastest way from top to bottom.
You will start with a tutorial, that teaches you the controls for pedaling, braking, cornering, jumping, pumping,and all the skills necessary.

The game has lots of replayability. It is very tricky to really go fast, and mastering corners and jumps can take lots of practice, just like in real life.'

Zal het spel anders geprijsd worden tijdens en na vroegtijdige toegang?

'Yes, the price will increase as the features and content are added.'

Hoe zijn jullie van plan de community te betrekken bij het ontwikkelproces?

'We have a Discord channel, and a small Beta testers group where players have given lots of feedback. Their input is key. Downhill Pro Racer goal is to be the MTB game that us riders waited for so long. Focused on a realistic experience, with controls that actually matter when riding the track. We all love mountain biking, and with DHPR we will be able to compete from all parts of the world, putting our skills to the test.

So please join the Discord and let's ride together, cheers!'
