Hey everyone, Just a quick update on a few things as I don't post much on Steam News, I mostly use Twitter. The Steam Games Festival went quite well for TRF, almost doubling the amount of wishlists the game had. And generating several thousand views to the store page. The game had been due to release at the end of the Games Festival, at the end of June. However I ran into some issues with the 8 player controller setup for local play. Unfortunately, in order to comply with Steam regulations, I've had to lower the amount of supported local players from 8 to 4. This was a real shame to me, as I wanted to make sure the game could be played by as many people as possible in as many scenarios as possible. To that end, I decided to delay the release of the game to September, and use the time that gave me to add online multiplayer to TRF. I've spent the past 4 weeks working exclusively on adding online/LAN multiplayer to the game, if you follow me on my Twitter, you'll have seen frequent updates, including GIFs, to show how the network multiplayer is progressing. Right now, I have 3/9 game modes working in network play (Time Trial currently isn't planned to support network play). Those game modes are Race, Drift & Zen. The current focus is the Elimination game mode, which is similar to how classic Micro Machines plays. So that's basically what I've been up to the past month, polishing parts of the game off, and mostly adding the ability to play over a network. Thanks for reading, Oliver

🕹️ Partial Controller Support
Features:
- Track Editor included in the game. This track editor was used to build all the tracks that come with the game, so you can create an endless amount of tracks to enjoy! This includes a racing line editor, allowing you to fine-tune the AI's behaviour on your track. The track editor is capable of making both racing tracks and custom Battle Arenas.
- A variety of game modes, from Racing, to Drift, to Infection, there's a bunch of game modes for everyone to enjoy! All game modes support AI drivers. All game modes support at least 4 players, some game modes support up to 8 players!
- 12 Race Tracks and 3 Battle Arenas come with the game, so if creating tracks isn't your thing, you can jump straight into the game and battle it out with your friends!
- 4 Car classes, Street, Sport, Super & Hyper. You can take it easy in the Street class, with fairly grippy tyres and plenty of time to react, it's the ideal choice for newer or younger drivers. But when you feel ready, hop into a Hyper car and be prepared to react quickly and get some drift time in!
- 7 Weapons are available to mess with your opponents, from a Bolt that will force your target into a drift, to a Strike that will hit the driver in 1st position, or perhaps a nifty Nitro to boost yourself ahead of the pack?
- Choose your time of day and weather settings! Race on a sunny morning, Drift on a rainy evening, perhaps even play Infection on a stormy night? Be careful though, in snowy weather, the cars won't respond how you'd like! And I've been hearing reports of a meteor shower???
- And let's not forget the mutators! Fun little settings you can change to switch things up, from disabling brakes whilst forcing cars to always be accelerating, to making the ground icy, there's a few little surprises in there to keep the action interesting!
