ZeroGear: A kart-racing game using Ogre

[marshmonkey]

We were planning on releasing our new trailer once we had the beta signups up and running, but the IGF entrants ninja'ed us was sooner than I expected. So here is Zero Gear's page: http://www.igf.com/php-bin/entry2010.php?id=112

and here is our new trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QuLHEuLMlbM&fmt=22

This is going to be available on Steam, right?
After the IGF, I mean?

Awesome, in any way whatsoever!

[marshmonkey]

Ogre games on Steam everywhere . Feels so good . Will definetly buy it (let alone for the reasong being made with my favourite engine).

Great job on the trailer. I love the over-the-top, in-your-face commercial style.
Good luck at the IGF.

My PC is only have 512MB of RAM, and graphics card is nVidia Geforce 6200 TurboCache 256MB

[marshmonkey]

Yes, indeed. Would definetly have liked to test it as well. Guess have to wait until it's up on Steam

[marshmonkey]

that was only a small test run of keys we released - I will post again when we post many more.

the cool dudes over at http://hyperduck.co.uk are doing the music for the game, in their honor I made a duck bill accessory that will be in the next build:

Sounds good, seems to fit perfect for a cart racer

[spacegaier]

The single track that can be heard on their website is not bad. I hope though that it's not the only one, in order to not getting borring with the time (and nerving due to this gameboy / old gaming console sound, which is quite high / sharp / piercing).

[marshmonkey]

That is only the main menu music, we have multiple other tracks for the game.

Your garage definetly rock! It's so much fun playing around with all these items, cars, characters and accesoiries. Really makes you identifying yourself with your character...
