Hi Champions, A month has passed since our first playtest of Ultimate Godspeed. Thank you so much for your feedback. Some of you've really gone into detail.
We love it!

This month it's all about placing items and modifying the track. The latest playtest is already available for you to play on Steam. Read on to find out how you can take part and get a chance to win one of two Steam Keys.




During tests at fairs and with our friends, we noticed that many players find it difficult to place the items precisely in the level. Since the placement is a main component of the final gameplay loop, we want to improve it.

When you start the playtest you can choose three items from a predefined set of shortcut items like ramps, platforms or rails. Then you can place them freely in the level. Then it's off to the races and you can try to beat the time record of 20 seconds.



Of course, thanks to your feedback on the driving experience, we have made some changes to the player controller itself. This includes: turning when standing still, a snappier (and higher) jump, stronger burst-like boosts and small transition times when entering and exiting a drift. This is by no means final, and we're still tweaking some numbers. It's all about the game feel baby!

One of these changes - the higher jump - also have some deeper impacts on our level design and level modification mechanic!




It's simple, join our Discord by clicking on the image above or here: https://discord.gg/BrvnXvcHp6
Apply for the role of Champion of Qa in the Chanel “get-your-role-here”. After a few minutes you will receive a playtest key by mail.


In fact, it's quite simple. After you're done with the playtest, go back to our Ultimate Godspeed Discord. There you've received the role of 🦸Champion of Qa automatically. You now have access to our QA channels.

The playtest and the chance to win a Steam Key ends in a two weeks time on Saturday, 13 August.



First chance to win a Steam key:
In the channel 💬︱champions-feedback you can tell us what you noticed while playing. The more detailed the better!

How did it feel to place the items? Did you figure out the controls quickly? Were you able to place the items as you wanted? Did you understand what the individual items are good for? Were you able to use the items you placed in the race?

All champions who leave feedback will be entered into a draw to win a Steam key for the release of Ultimate Godspeed.

Second chance to win a Steam key:
Another opportunity to win a Steam key is to complete our monthly challenge. This month's challenge is: Can you beat 20 seconds?

No problem? Good! Once you have managed to beat the time record of 20 seconds, take a screenshot of your winning screen. Then post it in the channel 🥇︱champions-challenge. We will then raffle off a key among all the screenshots.
Extra honorary points for the fastest champion!😉

If you win a key, you will receive it at the release of Ultimate Godspeed to the email address you entered.
