Overhead racer + custom track design + classic TRON look? Oh, yes. I am extremely interested in this one. Hopefully it'll be universal!
Good name. Makes me think of 'Race Forever', an old Choose Your Own Adventure book which had you taking part in a couple of rallies - you choose which one to do first and technically it *was* possible to keep alternating between the two in a loop and thus 'race forever'. Maybe that would be a better title? Drive is a little passive as a word. Anything I could do to help? Would love to be involved with this.
Actually, they say in their blog post that two of their rejected titles were Electro Pace and Turbo Awesome. Given that, I think that Drive Forever was the smarter choice But the comments on that post have also sparked people to offer up all sorts of crazy and funny alternate names. You should check it out. Personally, I really like Drive Forever and hope they keep it
This looks incredible! Can't wait for more info. My mind is racing with the possibilities here (no pun intended).
The atmosphere reminds me of the city levels in Dethkarz. I loved that game, espacially with a steering wheel. From what I read here it seems the building part will be more like TrackMania. Looks promising!
I am very intrigued. I do love the look of the game, the design and social sharing aspect -- and I do like racing games. I'm not entirely sure I like the idea of an overhead aspect -- maybe an isometric or third-person style view would be cool, but then there's nothing that specifically states that it's overhead view, and there is a shot from behind a car, so it may offer different perspectives, which would be cool. I'll certainly be keeping an eye on this one.
I'm extremely excited about this. First, it's from an amazingly talented (and proven) dev. Second, user-created content feels so at home on iOS, yet very few people are doing it (or can do it). Third, the game clearly has a style, and style means a lot. This is one to look out for folks.
I don't think we are. iirc, the iTouch 2g is more pwerful than the iphone 3g. So hopefully, we will be able to play it.
