It's been a while. What's Happening With Rat Race?


Hello everyone, this is the first time we've made a devlog in nearly 5 months so I hope I can give you guys some reassurance, along with a much needed update.


Biggest Question out of the way Is Rat Race Canceled

No.

Rat Race is not canceled, or even close to being canceled. But at the same time I can't say it's close to completion either. Rat Race has been a tricky project for our team to develop since the start.

We're using new techniques, in environments we're not entirely familiar with and trying new things constantly to make the best end product possible for you guys to enjoy. But doing that is pretty hard, and tiring. I'm not gonna lie to you and say that the games development has been going quickly, for the time being everything's been on a pretty slow pace, but we're still all getting work done whenever we have the time too.

We're gonna take our time, and all we can ask is that you trust us. Even though we've been very silent on the games development since it started, that's not due to a lack of progress, it's simply the fact we want to make a game that surprises everyone, and we're not gonna be able to do that if we're keeping you in the loop constantly. However, we can't keep everything a secret forever, which brings us to our next point.


What Comes Next?

The Rat Race GameJolt page is nearing 3000 followers, so here's what we're gonna do.

When the page does eventually reach 3000 followers, the entire team is gonna host a fireside where we answer your questions live. Don't ask us these questions now, we'll read them in the chat when the time comes. Unlike previous interviews we've been involved in, we'll give straight up answers and clear up any confusion you guys have on the game so far.

Along with this fireside, upon reaching 3000 followers we'll be posting a mini-reveal trailer. Don't consider it a full blown trailer, but it'll show off something that's been mysterious for a while, and hopefully be enough to satisfy the drought of content we've had.


That's about it for now, sorry we took so long to keep you guys updated, but I hope you stay tuned for what comes next. Thank you.

Another house i made long time ago.

Today I was setting up the location of the first boss. His name is "Father" and he is the first of the Patagonians. His task is to guard the road to the House.🛡🗡 Bookmark pre-launch page🔖🔖🔖

Family band complete!

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)
