Hate to be "that guy" but will the project still go on if the KS funding fails? Frankly the KS campaign outlook doesn't look...too promising despite everyone has done their best already.

Yes development will continue after the KS has ended. We're looking at options such as going straight on to Early Access

I;m getting a warm and fuzzy feeling. Between this and the other Arcade Racer I don't recall the name of...It's like Crusin' Daytona with the Rage Racers all over again

I thought waterflame made the music for this game, but on the trailer it says Heine House did.

Hello wj11jam - Waterflame created 10 tracks for the OST and Heine House is also producing a number tracks for us as well. The music on Trailer 3 and 'If You Like 90's Arcade Racers' is from Heine House (as he produced the video for us). We'll be adding an article to IndieDB with all the links to the music soon.

To be honest, you guys might want to clarify "no weapons mode are available" a bit further (i.e by showing time attack mode or non-power up races)

So far from what I've seen the most response/complains from the common folks are something in the line of "weapons are huge turn off for us" or "no weapon mode or no buy"

Hi Nergal01 - All the News articles we create are being archived at the moment. So we cannot post any updates - we'll contact more moderators to see if we can resolve this issue
