(final?) PLAY TEST

RACERS!

It's a bit of a running joke in the (small, but dedicated!) Dart Racer community, that the game is always heading to Steam Next fest but never actually makes it. No, really. It's not an exaggeration. This June it will be the 8th attempt at launching the demo and participating in the festivities alongside all those fantastic games that will attempt (and hopefully fail miserably) to steal our thunder.

What makes this time different is that we're very much certain that we have more than enough material to launch the full game soon, let alone a demo in June. In fact, there's a bit too much content to put in a demo. A Next Fest demo needs to be short and sweet - say all the Steam marketing sages. This is where you come in, play the (final?) PLAY TEST that's starting just NOW, and let us know what you think. Which tracks should we keep for the demo? Which playmode is the most engaging? What are the most mind-blowing moments in the game, that we should focus on. There's a handy feedback form embedded in the demo (accessible on the 'info' screen as well as upon exiting the game), and apart of the aforementioned topics there's quite a bit of your standard playtest feedback questions aimed at general game improvement. This is an open playtest, so there's no waiting lists or queues - you just go to the Steam store page for Dart Racer, locate the shiny green "Join the Playtest" button, click it and presto! You're in. And you can also invite up to 3 friends, so you have someone who'll annoy you in the leader boards.
Use this widget to get there quicker. And if you haven't yet - please make sure to mash that 'WISHLIST' button while you're there.That's it for today, thank you for attention, and see you on the race track!

Yours,

LubSoft
