Little fixes

Here's a little update to fix a few bugs that I've noticed during the last monthes. Mainly improper colliders, and some bad respawn places.

MASSIVE CONTENT UPDATE

Hello everyone, Here is a MASSIVE update of Slide, Animal Race! I tried to listen to all the feedback you gave me. I hope you'll like it! Main improvements:

  • 4 new tracks (Ocre Canyon, The Wave, Boreal Whales, Smooth Dunes) (10 tracks total)
  • 2 new characters (Raccoon & Eagle) (8 animals total)
  • 12 concurrents on each track
  • Relooking of minimaps icons
  • New & more understandable victory screen with race timings
  • AI reworking for a better difficulty balance
  • A new track for the demo (Diplodocus Desert instead of Dragons of Aurora)
Other improvements:
  • Nice smoke FX in desert races
  • Sound & music rebalancing
  • Larger tracks for the difficult levels Pirate Cove & Dragons of Aurora
  • Fix lots of bad respawn bugs
  • Breakable lanterns in Lantern Festival
  • Readability improvements: black outline on animals, remove useless random FX, rework assets positioning on some tracks
  • Better gravity and orientation management during jumps
  • Nicer animal selection screen
  • Improvement of some animal models
  • Thin black line to separate each player subscreen
  • Slight gameplay adjustment on slowing grass, bombs & lightning
  • Polish on some feedback (slowing grass, lightning & speeder)
  • Many fixes & optimisations
Of course, it's not finished, I plan to add more content in the future (tracks, animals, maybe game modes...). But for now, the price stays the same! If you like all this, don't hesitate to leave a review on the store, it helps a lot! Peace! A few pictures of the new tracks/characters/screens:

New playable animals

Hello dear followers, Recently I've been working on the next update for "Slide, Animal Race", and on top of the 4 new tracks, there will also be 2 new playable animals. Here's a few screens to introduce you a cute raccoon and a wild eagle:

Of course, I plan to keep adding more animals on the long run. Ideally, I would like to add tons of them! But, it takes a bit of time... Anyways, stay tuned, the upgrade will come next month :) Meanwhile, take care. Peace.

Blender Tutorials - Behind the Scenes

Hello there! Its been a while! As always, I have many new things to share with you, and not enough time to write about it! But one thing at a time ! Today I share a few Blender video tutorials Ive made while creating Slide Animal Race. Its the making-of of the penguin character, from scratch to the final asset. Each video is 10-15mn long and present a single stage of the creation : modeling, texturing, rigging and animation.
The final asset in game: a cool penguin The audio is in French (so you can hear my beautiful voice ), but hopefully, the video process is pretty much self explanatory so it can be understood by everyone. So here are the 4 videos: [previewyoutube=7zMcMB4qekc;full][/previewyoutube] [previewyoutube=tYb9_5zKOmU;full][/previewyoutube] [previewyoutube=6_3coLLMUHk;full][/previewyoutube] [previewyoutube=GmWyBP8VD7Y;full][/previewyoutube] I hope youll like it! Peace! PS: i'm also working on new content for the game, but more on that later!

Fixed camera and translations

Hello everyone, The final release of Slide is approaching! For reminders, it's planned on February, 17th. Right now I'm working on (better) translations of the game. It will be available in English, Simplified Chinese, Russian, Japanese, Korean, French, German and Spanish. Here's a little glimpse at it:
It's pretty weird to rediscover your own game in a foreign language... I've also worked on fixed camera positioning. They are used to showcase the track and the animals when you've finished a race.


Anyways,I'm also working on minor bugs, balancing AIs, ... Almost there! Thanks for your patience!

Slide demo is arriving on Steam on October, 7th

Description


In Slide, you can ride cute animals to race against your friends through dreamy tracks. Master the dive to avoid obstacles and gain boosts, explore environments to find hidden shortcuts, use power-ups to outrun the horde. Or you can just take a tour and enjoy the view, while listening to the sympho-ethnic soundtrack. That's up to you. The game is playable up to 8 friends (or enemies) in local split-screen on Windows, Linux and MacOS. It is also accessible to beginners and kids thanks to auto-pilot options; but to win the race, you'll truly have to master the diving mechanics and many more.

The Demo


The upcoming demo will showcase 1 track among clouds, 1 playable animal (a turtle) and up to 4 players.

Developer


Slide is developed by solo indie game developer Mathias Fontmarty. Mathias likes coding, drawing and making music. So what's better than creating video games to do all this at the same time? After years of learning by himself, he thought it was time to share his games for real, in the real world, for real people to play them. So he created "Oneiric Worlds", a game studio that aims at making inspiring and feel-good video games... because that's what he likes!

Story


Slide was first developed as a mini-game for "A Thief's Melody", a cartoon 3D adventure/stealth game currently in development at the studio. It evolved so much that it reached a point where it could be a full game by itself. Both games share the same world and the same contemplative atmosphere, as well as a focus on animals and nature.

Play quick & fun races with your friends. Ride cute animals through dreamy tracks and use bonuses to outrun the horde! Master the dive to avoid obstacles and gain boosts, and explore environments to find hidden shortcuts.

Or just take a tour and enjoy the view, while listening to the sympho-ethnic soundtrack. That's up to you.



Multiplayer


Play up to 8 players in local splitscreen! Steam "Remote Play Together" is supported. The game is family friendly and offers some assistance for younger players or beginners. However, to fully master the game, you'll have to take advantage of all the controls the game offers. Easy to get, hard to master!

Dive to Boost


At any time you can choose to dive under the track; this makes you drift but you gain boosts afterwards. The trick is, diving can also be done in a straight line. Use it wisely to outrun your opponents! But will you be able to handle this super speed? Diving is also useful to avoid bad stuff on the track.

Ride Animals


Who has never dreamt of riding wildlife animals ? Now you can choose among 6 cute animals. All animals have the same stats, so it's only a matter of personal taste.

Bonus


Find bonuses along the way to boost, protect yourself, or clutter the way of other players... But be careful, every trap will stay there until the end of the race. So try not to punish yourself! It can quickly become a mess and the last lap is often full of surprises.

Dreamy Tracks


Tracks take place in oneiric worlds where nature is all around: clouds amongst auroras, snowy moutains, tropical islands or celtic lands... Some tracks are totally upside down, others are more peaceful and contemplative. All levels offer hidden shortcuts that you'll have to discover to gain precious seconds.
