Hi (author here)! I apologize for the misunderstanding, sorry! :unsure:

The game can be downloaded from itch.io, itch.io's client, GameJolt and IndieDB. The downloaded file is an executable (you should chmod +x it); specifically it is a MojoSetup installer.

ya2tech.it is just my personal VPS (perhaps you have found it from Yorg since I host some Yorg's services on it), and you found that mess since I didn't suppose that anyone was looking at it. :whistle: Actually, I was just experimenting with my new webserver and AppImage builds, but this wasn't intended to be public (now), sorry.

As for the crash, actually I can't replicate it, sorry.

Thank you for the article! Thank you for downloading it! :smile:

Quoting: Liam DaweJust enable them both together? If gamepad is connected, then show gamepad prompts. One input shouldn't block the other from working though.

Ok, I'll implement that, thanks!

Hi! Thank you very much for the article and for the comments! :)

One question. You wrote:

Gamepads do seem to work but they're a little finicky right now. You have to manually turn it on in the options, otherwise it will work in the menu but not in an actual race.

May I ask you for a suggestion? Should I automatically use the gamepad if it is connected? Thanks! :)

Quoting: M@GOidI gave it a look but gamepad support (both DS4 and SC) are bugged right now.

Hi! I'm very sorry for this. Anyway, this is why release candidate builds exist. :wink: If you want, please report your bugs on the issue tracker, thanks! :wink:

Quoting: DuncI was about to say the screenshots look a lot like Skidmarks on the Amiga. Given what you've said, I wouldn't be surprised if it's an inspiration, at least as much as MM.

Eheh actually I played Skidmarks a lot, you are right. ^_^

Quoting: MaathSince it is open source, I wonder how hard it would be to get into it and increase the tire friction value for those who don't want to drift so much.

There are some text files which define physical properties. Actually, the friction is one of the values that you can easily edit there. Anyway, there are several physical properties that change dynamically. So, if you want a more advanced control, you should actually edit some Python code.

The online multiplayer could use some big improvements. [...] On top of that, the system to actually make an online match isn't great. Myself and Samsai tried it and it's extremely unclear and didn't seem to actually work.

Thank you very much for the constructive criticism, I will modify the multiplayer GUI. :)

You invite someone from the online list (icons appear when you hover over someone's name) and they're supposed to get a notification to join a match. Samsai didn't get my invite and it got stuck claiming we were both in a game. We logged out and back in, this time Samsai invited me which worked. Then, after picking a car and Samsai started the game it completely froze for me and Samsai got a black screen. Sadly, they've got a bit of work to do to actually make online play be clear in how it works and actually work properly.

Actually there has been a bug in the server code during your session (I've found it in the log). I apologize for this, I'm so sorry. Thank you!

Quoting: TcheyFrom itchio, i think the archive is very messed up. Can't launch, and can't find the file to lauch.

Hi! I think that I've solved the itch.io issue, thank you once more for reporting that!

Quoting: NanobangLol, No need to apologize, your English looks very good. And I really was wondering if "pilot" was used elsewhere in the world instead of "driver." Yes, "driver" would be the right term in this case.

In English say we "drive" cars, but we say we "pilot" boats & airplanes.

Actually, we translate "driver" to a word which sounds very similar to "pilot" (we say "pilota" ) in this context.

Quoting: NanobangAny time you have any questions about English and its usage, feel free to contact me here.

Actually, I've always questions about English :S: but I'm going to look for your help if I'll have specific issues, thanks ;) . If you will spot other errors, your suggestions would be very welcome, thanks! :)

Thank you very much for the article! Thank you very much for your kind comments! ^_^

Quoting: NanobangIs it an English language faux pas when they say "pilots" in their video, or is that the generally used term for race car drivers everywhere but in the U.S.?

Sorry, English is not my mothertongue and I write wrong things very often. :S: I am going to fix it in game's descriptions out there. As for the video, we'll change that for 0.9's video. Is "drivers" your suggested word? Thank you very much for reporting this error!

Quoting: TcheyFrom itchio, i think the archive is very messed up. Can't launch, and can't find the file to lauch.

I am very sorry, I didn't know how itch.io manages builds for their client. I am going to fix that asap, thank you for pointing that out!

Quoting: Jahimselflooking forward to the multiplayer with splitscreen if someone find a way to implement it.

Actually, couch multiplayer is scheduled for 0.10 (since a player asked for that in another community), but the next release (0.9) will feature "only" online multiplayer. This is because players demanded online multiplayer before the couch one, so I started from that. Anyway, I'll work on that after the next release. ;)
