We opened the game a year ago and thanks to your feedback we were able to make lots of improvements: much better graphics, a multiplayer mode, the basics of the shop and we improved many other things.
We still have a lot more to add but it is time to officially release the game, and not only on Steam but also on mobile devices!
Available platforms
You can now find the game on:
The game is fully cross-platform so all your progression on one device will continue on the other one and you can play against players coming from any platform.
We might add more platforms in a near future.
Not free-to-play anymore
Some former YouRiding players might be disappointed the game is not free like it used to be.
Before, you were able to download the game for free but you had to pay for all the content inside the game and we were also showing you lots of ads.
Now the game has a small price to pay but everything inside the game is available for free and there are no ads at all.
Why not doing the free-to-play anymore?
The answer is simple: in free-to-play, we have to design the game to generate revenue and it forces us to make decisions that usually go against the fun. By removing this constraint we can make a game that's fun to play without looking for money at every single corner.
I bought the game on Steam, can I have it on mobile?
The answer is YES if you bought the game in Early Access. Contact us at
support@youriding.gg or via our
Discord.
What is coming up next?
Here is the current roadmap:
- XP Progression: earn XP by riding waves and competing in multiplayers, and unlock equipment in the shop by reaching certains levels of XP.
- New shop and real brands: we are redesigning the shop and working with brands to include their products in the shop.
- Journey challenges: we are building a feature letting you create a challenge like it was in the Journey. You can pick a list of waves and build challenges to make on each one of them, then share it to the community. Players will have to finish the first challenge to unlock the next one and so on until they are done with the whole challenge. Using that feature and the wave editor you could potentially rebuild the Journey entirely!
- Championships: YouRiding is not YouRiding if we don't have worldwide championships! So that will be added next with official championships that will crown the YouRiding world champion! (is JDR going to win?)
Make sure to join our
Discord if you want to learn more about these features or suggest new ones!
Thanks a lot for your support and never stop riding!
