Race The Sun

Flippfly | TBD

At its core, Race The Sun is an arcade-style infinite racer, set in a procedurally generated world with an increasing difficulty ramp and a "modern retro" look. The goal is to get the highest possible score by racing into the sunset, avoiding obstacles and enemies, and collecting speed boosts and other powerups to help you along the way. You fly a solar-powered craft, and the game ends at sundown, if you can make it that far!

@coolpowers @tweeting_keith It'll be appealing to Apple-centric devs who work in 2D and don't target android. But Unity's in another league

@coolpowers @tweeting_keith Yep. I like Unity for C# game coding, 3D, 100k developer community, integrated engine, and cross compatibility.

@auteurtheory Yeah it's a fair point - the company matters!

@JoshYTsui I like Unity for it's awesome editor, C# game coding, 100k+ developer community, and cross-platform publishing.

@AsherVo I guess in thinking about it, that really wouldn't work though!

@AsherVo Vine + front facing camera + mirror ;)

@Totalbiscuit One critical difference is that the old-fashioned demos didn't ask you to gradually pay $100s to keep having fun.

@AsherVo Do tell!

@OTGGamer I think they're alright, but I think in 2 or 3 years we'll be seeing them touting another shiny new redesign :)

It's a shame @Vlambeer's Ridiculous Fishing wasn't F2P, I'm sure they'd have done so much bett - oh, what's this? T.co
