addedExperience the city of Nivalis like never before with a fully immersive first person cockpit view. To see it in action, check out the new trailer right here, featuring music from cult synthwave artist Perturbator , with his track Venger (feat. Greta Link) . We feel incredibly honored to have partnered with Perturbator for this update and we think the song fits our game perfectly.

addedWhile in the vehicle you can enter the cockpit view via the V key or DPAD Up on the controller. You can reassign this to another key that you'd prefer more. In cockpit you can steer your vehicle just like before, but driving will feel completely new. Feel the rain dropping on your windshield and the city and all the other cars swoosh by. You may also unlock your camera like before, which allows you to look around inside the car. Look out the side windows and even the new floor windows. Funky!

changedDon't damage your car too much or the windshield will get cracks limiting your view.

changedWe've also upgraded your apartment by making many of the apartment items interactable. Eat your pizza, take a closer look at your fish tank, turn on your TV and play a game on the retro game console. Try to beat Camus' highscore!

changedOther changes in this update include performance improvements, smaller level design changes and much smoother controller input with the third and first person cameras. I (Marko) kinda prefer the controller for everything in the game now, but Roman is still a "keyboard+mouse boi" (his words). But we're happy that both feel really balanced and polished.

When you approach a parking lot and slow down a bit, a holographic "below the car" view will appear on your windshield making it easier to navigation to the nearest parking slot. The hologram will automatically fade away if you drive off.

We hope you will enjoy this update as much we did making it. Let us know your thoughts in the comments below. We also welcome you on our Discord Server for a direct chat with us and other Nivali.

There's more coming in the future, such as the big story update introducing new characters and bringing back old ones, a vehicle constructor and optional racing jobs. But these will take us longer to develop, it'll be like a second game.

Enjoy!
