Yeah... some games make you feel like you were ripped off, paid too much money.

This game will make you feel like you ripped off the developer.
I honestly don't understand why they sell it so low, but it's their choice.

What 80s were to music (and hair), 90s were to gaming.

Awesome that someone from the community does it.
Sad that someone from the community has to do it.

On Razer, though: Are their products actually worth it?
From what I can see, their peripherals might be, but the actual laptops and desktops you could get way cheaper without the Razer branding.

Quoting: gojulSadly SuperTuxKart is far away from any commercial game like Super Mario Kart. One of the reasons is the number of weapons and their diversity, which clearly lags behind.

The graphic, I would say the whole graphic need a huge revamp.

Definitely.

Not talking about some AAA-upgrades, but what the game would need is a pass (or a couple of passes) by a real artist.
Just looking at the UI, you can see that almost every element is stylistically at odds with every other element. Which just makes it look unnecessarily cheap.

And the 3D art also has that problem somewhat. While levels themselves generally look like most things belong together, there is a contrast between levels and carts/characters, as well as effects.

Kind of shows that open-source projects generally only have coders and sometimes game designers working on them, only extremely rarely artists beyond contributing single assets.

Being banned by EA is like being banned by the devil from giving him your soul...
People should be thankful.

Mid 2020 does sound a bit optimistic to me.
The Vulkan rendering overhaul can be done by then for sure, but there are a lot more open issues marked for 4.0 than just that.

I'd say 2020 sounds realistic, still, but I'd put my money on the last quarter.

I'm also quite fond of the game.

The only thing I do not like is the "timer" put on by the eventual appearance of the minotaur.
But at least you get a notification if the level you are currently on will be "visited" by the minotaur.

Quoting: tmtvlOh well, it's the dawn of a new decade, who knows what the 2020's will bring.

Linux gaming didn't succeed until we get the equivalent of buying a game on Steam, which launches into Origin, which launches the game with all of Steam, Origin and Games For Windows Live active at the same time :D

since they don't support Galaxy on Linux yet

You know, there is optimism, and then there is naivety...
