Human civilisation has been within the gradual lane since prehistoric occasions, when Sir Isaac Newton created gravity and out of the blue we wanted wheels to push round something (e.g. potatoes, geese, different folks, components to create extra wheels). But racing video games like Wipeout provide hope of a future the place we would maybe shut Newton’s Pandora’s Box, rid ourselves of gravity, and zoom round mega-fast and upside-down as our ancestors did. You can expertise a style of this future within the free demo for Antigraviator, a brand new hover-racing sport which is able to launch in full subsequent week. Go on, stick it to Newton.
Antigraviator is a zip-zoom-fast racing sport that includes hovervehicles and tracks full of massive turns, loops, and upside-down-y bits. As if racing at 600km/h weren’t thrilling sufficient, the tracks are plagued by ‘trap’ pick-ups which vary from precise traps, like triggering rock slides or activating electrical energy sparks, to issues I’d straight-up name weapons, like mines and missiles. If missiles are only a ‘trap’, me kicking you up the jacksy is simply banter.
I’ve performed the demo, and it positive is a hover-racing sport. Ah, I’ve not sufficient familiarity with ’em to actually decide. I preferred going quick and going upside-down. Nailing a nook at prime pace with cautious faucets of the air brake is sweet. The announcer voices stand out as daft. Some ideas, there.
Along with a tutorial, the demo provides three tracks to race round in opposition to, supporting AI opponents and split-screen multiplayer (the total sport may have on-line racing too). Customisation is in too, if fancy portray some futurecars. You can obtain the 800MB installer from Itch.io, Game Jolt, and Indie DB.
Antigraviator is coming via Steam on Wednesday, June sixth. It’s made by Cybernetic Walrus and printed by Iceberg Interactive.
I by no means did get round to enjoying the completed model of the Wipeout-y Formula Fusion – what’s it like, gang? And Lightfield remains to be on the horizon, trying fascinating.
