Minor Update (Build 4485), Twitch Stream
We just put out a small patch to address some of the issues brought up by players this week. Check out the changelog below for details. EDIT: Build 4491 is now live on the stable branch. I rolled back our Wwise implementation to a previous version which appears to have fixed audio/loading bugs for many players.
Tonight around 9pm PT we'll be streaming some of the latest community levels! I've already seen some impressive looking creations published since the Creativity Update release, and I've been holding off playing anything until we could stream. Well tonight's the night, and I'm excited to finally tear into them. Follow on Twitch to get notified when we go live!

MINOR UPDATE: BUILD 4485 (now 4491)

- Level Editor
- Improvements to Popup Blockers
- Popup blockers now use their start position for checking distance to the car instead of their position below the road
- Popup distance is now the same regardless of the blocker orientation
- The popup and hologram distance can also now be previewed in the level editor
- This will allow level creators to easily setup close range popups
- Old levels may need to be adjusted for this change
- Popup blockers now have a height multiplier so level creators can offset the amount the blockers will move
- Improved Mouse Click selection (should be easier to select the desired object at close and far distances)
- SelectObjectTool now correctly displays the name of selected object if it is using a custom name
- Improvements to Popup Blockers
- General
- Removed VSync (2x) option since it was never helpful
- Bugs Fixed
- Fixed bug where some levels may fail to load, then the game hangs when returning to the main menu
- Fixed bug where golden simples had zombie material references, causing many visual artifacts
- Improved bounds calculation so spinning objects are less likely to stop spinning when in view
- Subdivided visual mesh on EmpireTunnel to fix issues where you could drive through it strangely

Distance is a survival racing game that combines the intense action of arcade racing with the exploration of an atmospheric world. You control a unique car that allows you to boost, jump, rotate, and even fly through a chaotic and twisted city. The world has a mysterious history, and as you explore you'll be able to uncover pieces of its past.
The roads are treacherous and unpredictable with obstacles around every corner. Instead of doing laps on a loop, you'll be trying to survive to the end in the quickest time. Since your car has several abilities, it allows you to not only drive fast on the track but also upside down and on buildings and walls! You can also fly to discover new shortcuts and paths. You'll be able to take on the roads alone, or in multiplayer with your friends!
The game is a spiritual successor to the multi-award winning game Nitronic Rush, created by ourselves and 5 others at DigiPen Institute of Technology. It was widely praised for its innovative mechanics, visual style, audio design, and atmosphere.
