The day has come folks! We have exciting news to share! After almost 2 years of development, today we're releasing Cranks and Goggles as Public Beta. First of all, we really like to thank you guys -our enthusiastic racing game community- for supporting us during this Early Access period. Your constant feedback on each update gave us the chance to make a better game. And it's not even done yet. There are tons of improvements we'd like to implement in future but at the same time we think it's time to share this fun with everybody. So here is the latest version, have fun and drive it like you stole it. Oh, one more thing... Cranks and Goggles now featuring an online multiplayer challenge. A feature that our community asking for from the day one. On the current version 1.0 Beta, we've implemented a pretty straight forward multiplayer experience. There are "pre-made" races available for everybody to get together and race. Custom rooms and more multiplayer stuff will be available in future updates.

COMPLETED in 0.16 -> Beta 1.0

- Online multiplayer challenge feature with 8 available races - Fine tuning AI levels on each class - Bersenbruck has a new track geometry, which is more diverse and more challenging than before. - On levels Kafuenburgring, Bersenbruck and St.Laurent, most of the fences are removed. - Spectators! We have now cute litte guys jumping cheering along the races :) - Avatar names now accept alfa numeric characters, you can name your character "M.Atkins" or "***night___rider***" - "Races" section title changed to "Career" - Lots of interface cosmetics and fine-tunes - Minimap graphics are fine-tuned - Lobby announcement sound is randomised - "From developers" note updated - Verison number is added to main menu screen (bottom right) - Time trial result screens updated - On time trials, players now can lap endlessly - Time trial target times are updated - Most of the ads & signs on the road may now fall when you hit them Quote of the day: "I'm an artist. The track is my canvas & the car is my brush." - Graham Hill 1929 - 1975
