About This Game

BallisticNG is a high speed, all thrills anti-gravity combat racer and open modding environment developed as a tribute to old school classics such as Wipeout, Rollcage and Jet Moto. Set throughout the 2159 Anti-Gravity League, you glide and speed through futuristic race courses armed to the teeth with deadly weapons to aid you in taking first place.

Features

  • A track for every skill level, a ship for every play style
    With a huge and ever expanding roster of tracks and ships, BallisticNG is a content powerhouse and has something for everybody.
  • Start slow, go as fast as you can handle
    With 5 speed classes and gameplay modifiers to manipulate the base speed of each class, you can race at speeds anywhere between a snail's pace or breaking the sound barrier on every straight.
  • A variety of content categories
    BallisticNG features a variety of different content categories to keep you busy, featuring standard content, drag content, drift content and small vehicle content. Vehicles and tracks from each category of content are interchangable so you can play how you want!
  • Smart Assists
    New to anti-gravity racers? No problem! BallisticNG features assists that aid with steering, pitching and airbrakes independently. These work by letting the game's AI make input suggestions to your ship, which adapt to your own inputs so it stays out of the way when not needed.
  • A campaign to test your skills
    Put your skills to the test with BallisticNGs massive campaign, featuring a large range of game modes and various challenges.
  • Eliminate those who stand in your way
    Pick up weapons from the track and blast your way through the competition. We have a sizeable arsenal of weapons with each serving a particular purpose.
  • Custom Races
    Pick a gamemode, configure it, add up to 16 racers with whatever difficulty you want and jump straight in.
    Gamemodes: Race, Team Race, Tournament, Time Trial, Speed Lap, Eliminator, Knockout, Survival, Upsurge, Rush Hour and Stunt.
  • Multiplayer
    Play with others in two player splitscreen or online via direct IP or Steam. Onlline multiplayer is cross-platform across Windows, OSX and Linux and supports custom ships and tracks!
  • VR Compatible
    BallisticNG is fully compatible with SteamVR. Jump into the cockpit of your favourite ship and strap yourself in for the ride of your life! (the cockpit view is also available outside of VR)
  • Soundtrack
    BallisticNG features a thumping soundtrack featuring over 5 hours of music inspired by old school electronic genres. Any updates to the soundtrack are also added to the soundtrack DLC at no additional cost.

    Modding

    Built for modding, BallisticNG provides a large assortment of ways to modify it and develop new content using the same tools and level of customization used in development:
    • Create custom tracks with an easy to use spline based layout creator. Playtest your layout instantly.
    • Use the offical development tools to import custom ships and tracks into the game
      • Unity editor based tools to configure your ships and tracks, giving you the ultimate creative freedom.
      • Custom made texture atlas building software and Blender extensions for easy track environment development.
    • Create code mods with native support for C# libraries. Create gamemodes, HUDS, weapons, stats/achievements, or anything else you can think of.
    • Create custom campaigns with an easy to use in-game editor. XML files can also be manually written if that's more your style.
    • Create custom liveries for both vanilla and custom ships, use the in-game ship viewer to instantly refresh them and see changes. PSD files for vanilla ships are provided.
    • Create custom color palletes for the virtual environment.
    • Import and play custom music for races and the main menu
    • Replace most sounds in the game with sound replacement packs.

    DRM Free

    BallisticNG and its DLCs are DRM free. Steam is only used for delivering updates, handling leaderboards and providing optional workshop and Steam based multiplayer support. Once you have the files the game is yours to run wherever you want!
