New Update Gameplay! + Extra Info
Added 2023-09-02 18:19:53 +0000 UTCSo, this update includes a first look inside the PAs/Meets;
You walk around and phone up other racers to start negotiating a bet. Different racers have different negotiating traits; some will be more willing to accept your offers, others will outright refuse and get insulted. Racers will comment on your transmission type, your win streak, your losing streak, your car value, your car's engine condition ect.
Depending on how much rep you or a racer has dictates where they park. So you work your way around the parking area as you progress. You gain rep from accepting bets and winning races, but you will also lose rep if you lose races.
Each crew has at least 1 character that will become a rival to you, and will keep upgrading their car(Upgrades are fully visual+audible) to try and beat you.
Each crew has a sub-boss and a main boss, which you'll race as you gain rep and work your way through the crew.
After beating the main boss of a crew, they will offer you to join their crew. If you accept you become a racer for them; any challenge spot records you win will claim more territory for your crew. Sometimes, a rival crew will attack your crew's PA. You will be called by your boss, and have to rush to the PA to win a race against the challenger to defend your territory. If you lose the race, you lose crew rep and the crew territory. If you lose too much crew rep, you will be kicked from your crew.
As seen in the gameplay; the player is in debt. This happens when you run out of money. A mysterious caller will then offer you a loan that you re-pay by giving them a % of your race winnings. If you are in debt they will sometimes, randomly, make you fix races for them and their friends. If you keep losing after they gave you money, and you lose all their money, they will take your car and you restart from 0.
There's a lot more events like this in the game(double or nothings, race fixing territory defenses, ect.). These types of intertwining systems are what Night-Runners is really all about, and make it a really unique experience.
Any questions, I'll answer them here :)
Still a W.I.P

This feels like Armored Core as a racing game, I love it

2023-09-06 21:30:23 +0000 UTCWheel support will come after launch. In terms of FFB; the handling is pretty arcade so not sure what the FFB will be like. I have have a g29 so testing will be done on that :)
Night-Runners
2023-09-06 20:29:52 +0000 UTCyou could make it 60$ and i would still buy it

2023-09-05 20:35:38 +0000 UTCWhat kind of wheel support if any are you expecting to have in this? I personally have Moza gear that I’d love to use on this

2023-09-05 00:28:08 +0000 UTCHow much would the main game cost? Like when it releases
like a brim
2023-09-04 16:47:19 +0000 UTCthank you. I'm happy. I'm looking forward to the release of the demo version in Japan.

2023-09-04 11:56:22 +0000 UTCyes! This video was recorded using a controller
Night-Runners
2023-09-03 09:56:36 +0000 UTCIs there controller support?

2023-09-02 22:55:06 +0000 UTCit was planned but It had to get shelved because the method I use to load/unload music wouldn’t work with user files. If I can find a method that works, I’ll add it
Night-Runners
2023-09-02 22:05:13 +0000 UTCno cop chases but I have a feature planned for the full game; parked up cops doing radar speed traps, that randomly appear in certain areas. High priority feature, but will be full game only (no time)
Night-Runners
2023-09-02 22:04:25 +0000 UTCNot in the demo, due to time, but I've planned out how I would introduce bios. If/when I do, it will be more like a general crew+crew boss backstory rather than a typical bio. At the moment, each crew has a different theme with the style of cars they drive and clothes they wear.
Night-Runners
2023-09-02 22:00:59 +0000 UTCwill there be cops and if so can you add radar detectors and jammers?
EMannys
2023-09-02 21:54:45 +0000 UTCWill we have the ability to add our custom music to the game?
Ghost286
2023-09-02 21:36:26 +0000 UTCOnce again the detail is just incredible! Rivals commenting on your car, losing signal of their phone when you get too far away, its all amazing
Ganjatraining
2023-09-02 20:55:25 +0000 UTCWill the bosses and their crew have bios/rosters similar to the TXR series? Will they also have their own crew icons/logos? One of my favorite things to do in TXR:Zero was to read everyones' backstories while jamming to low-tense-energy electric guitar beats in the menus.
