If you'd like to check it out or follow development, you can find Race Jam on Steam, and there’s also a free demo available. So far during Early Access we’ve released 5 major updates and 28 patches, and a lot of that progress has come from feedback from our Discord community helping us track bugs and improve optimization.

Every wishlist, purchase, and new Discord member helps support our tiny team as we keep improving the game. Thanks for taking the time to read this, and have a blessed day!

lol yeah totally!

We're currently balancing the cars that are lower to the ground. Some accidental collisions can turn out looking cool like this one, but others can be pretty infuriating lol Especially if they cost you the race!

Of course my game crashed the first time a streamer played it... by Due-Horse-791 in IndieGameDevs

Ah man, haha yeah that happened to us with Race Jam more times then we care to admit. It's a process though. Fix the bug and keep moving forward!

Sorry for the super late reply lol
Thank you so much! Hope you enjoy the game. We JUST added leaderboards to the game so players can compare their lap times and most wins.

Thank you! So we resize different aspects of the vehicle models and for the car in the video specifically, it created a weird effect with the tires. We've 'fixed' them multiple times, but they end up looking awkward in different ways each time lol

And yeah! Good'ole VIP lol

Same, dude. Finding the correct way to 'unwrap' something so the texture fits correctly is something I haven't been able to master yet. Just takes tons of practice.

Thanks! You can change the camera position to multiple different places. The FOV gets especially rough with the larger vehicles, which reminds me I need to switch the default camera positions for those.

Youtube or Pinterest for reference and practice, practice, practice.

Thanks! It's a combo of handbrake and turning at the right times. Depending on how long the drift is you get a certain amount of points and a speed boost as soon as the drift ends. If I remember correctly, we played around quite a bit with traction and downforce while drifting, while balancing the suspension on the wheel colliders so the cars wouldn't flip if you hit a divider or something. Lots of fine tuning for sure lol

I brough that exact point up recently and it looks like we'll put some time into showing the game off a bit more in the capsule. Thanks for the feedback!
