changedWe’re this close to revealing the first few seconds of the intro video, but not this time. ;) We’re still polishing some elements to make your first impression on the game stunning that will make you follow Rad’s adventures and won’t let you get distracted by the matches with your friends on the playground in the neighborhood. The story will be an integral part of the gameplay, otherwise, we wouldn’t have given our game its name.
addedMap Here’s something completely new: an interactive map! It looks like a separate location where you’ll be able to mess around your player and visit all sorts of locations in a snap. We’ve just started working on it and we don’t wanna tell you too much about it. For starters, just a little sneak peek will do ;)
changedOne of the map tiles
addedA couple of days ago we started working on brand new in-game events which we will be revealing next week! So make sure to stay tuned and focused just like Rad down below.
changedWe would love to hear your thoughts and suggestions on how this or that gameplay or artsy thing should be! So please don’t hesitate and let us know by dropping us a line in our Discord .

Intro

First animations of the starting screen

In our previous note, we mentioned the introduction part that will let you feel the mood of the game. You didn’t miss it, did ya? Our artists have finished drawing locations, animations, and NPCs for the first story passage. Rad will start his journey to the big city here after a couple of interactions with friends and family members. That’s where the story begins...

Final frame of the video

Map Here’s something completely new: an interactive map! It looks like a separate location where you’ll be able to mess around your player and visit all sorts of locations in a snap.

One of the map tiles

Controls At first, we considered a WASD control over a character, but after two closed tests, we decided to go for something more like racing car controls where W and S are for steering and braking and A and D are for turning left or right.

Who spotted a small drawback here?

A couple of days ago we started working on brand new in-game events which we will be revealing next week! So make sure to stay tuned and focused just like Rad down below.
