Patch 1.1 is LIVE NOW on Game Jolt!

We've added a gun shop to the harbor, new podcasts to the record store and a load of quality of life changes that riders have been asking for!

Read the full notes below!


Hey Racers, long time! Have you been cravin' a race or a little ramen?

Big Changes

  • Added Gun Shop - You can now purchase new guns at any point while in New Olympia

  • 3 New Podcast Episodes added to the Record Shop

  • Halloween Update - Starting on October 1st, this update adds Halloween decorations around the city of New Olympia, and transforms all the enemies in the game to ghoulish monsters

Minor Changes

  • Updated End-of-race summary screen to be easier to understand

  • Records can now be sold back to the record shop to remove them from the soundtrack

  • Updated walking animations in New Olympia

  • Gun models are now animated in Weapon Selection Screen

  • Weather effects have more visual variety

  • Water glistening looks more realistic

Bug Fixes

  • Kangaroo herding now pays out correct amount based on how many you killed

  • Smoke from hoverbike in Act 1 Hub now flows correctly

  • "Nice" Achievement sometimes wouldn't activate, this is fixed

Also previously we had implemented an unlockable weapon, Enzo's 'Soopa-doopa Laza-Bazooka', and New Game + mode with harder racers - so if you haven't seen those yet, more good reasons to come back to New Olympia!

Unlike the real world, the bank in Desert Child provides 3% daily interest on money that is deposited.

Did anyone else pick up on this?

This is not a story of triumph.

This is a story of defiance, when the world demands you kneel.

Will you submit to your knees? Or fight- against all odds?
