Hi, there! 3DClouds here! As many of you already know we are working hard in order to complete the Online Mode. We are also working on all the community advice and feedback so you can have what you've asked in terms of implementations and new contents :)
We're late but.. Happy Halloween :) So, would you like to play on a track inspired by Halloween? Trick or treat?
We are fully aware that the things to improve are many and of a wide variety... For this reason, we are taking the right time to complete these tasks. Thank you for all the support and discussions opened on our socials and Discord channel to assist us to improve the game.
Kart poll
In the past days, we have asked you which kart you prefer the most from a selection given. Well, the winner is the kart number 6! Honestly, we didn't expect this result 'cause the number 6 is the most similar to the real ones. We thought you'd like a very different shape, but "the player is always right" so we will add it in the game as promised :D
New polls and contests are waiting for you, stay tuned!
Unlockables System
In the next update (available within a few days) we are going to implement a brand new page that will help you unlock....everything! Throughout this page, you'll find all the unlockables items in the game in order to obtain them all!
Online Mode
There we are, straight to the point! We nearly got the job done. A first release of the Online Mode will be available in the upcoming update together with everything we listed so far.
At the very beginning, everyone will be able to create a lobby and join them.
We decided to implement only the basic flow (for the moment) in order to get as much feedback as possible from you and test the servers' efficiency.
Subsequently, we will implement the rank system, Championship mode, and other game modes. You'll have all the tracks in the game and you can join up to 8 players. The first mode we'll implement will be Random Juicer race.
Going into Online mode the game will load the last custom kart saved and the last character selected, then you will be able to choose another character and/or customize your kart. All unlockables available in this mode will be the ones you have already unlocked playing the game so far.
After this update, we will continue working on the other features.
For example, on the right side of the page, you'll have all the lobbies listed by ranking and number of players (rankings will be available shortly).
These will be the options that will be able to perform the user once the implementation in-game will be complete:
- Search for custom Races
- Search for custom Championships
- Host a custom race or a custom Championship
Upon joining Custom Race and Custom Championship lobbies the player will be put into the most populated lobby with a similar ranking. The host will be able to start a race only if at least a single has joined the lobby. When the Host pushes the "Start" button a 30 seconds countdown is played before the race starts. The countdown is reduced to 10 seconds if all clients available press the "Ready" button.
We're so excited to this update and we can't wait to look for your feedback.
Other features will be added soon! Stay Tuned and play together!
