Description

Psychedelic Space Racing The year is 2132. In the far reaches of the galaxy, gigantic space creatures have been discovered. Creatures that vomit solid matter out of their mouths. Solid matter that is the perfect substance to drive beat up cars in a race to enter the creature’s mouth. We call it the Space Ribbon. In the fastest growing sport in the galaxy, be the first to chase down a giant space beast as it spews a completely different psychedelic racetrack out of its mouth every time you play. Modify junked up classic cars and turn them into the fastest in space.

History

Space Ribbon was born out of a game-jam in New Zealand. The concept of Ben Mitchell (@WildEep) a programer with over 15 years industry experience and an passion for old fenceposts (https://uk.pinterest.com/wildeep/fencepost-of-the-week/). Using Unity3D and Blender Ben single handedly created a working prototype with 4 cars to choose from. The game was presented to Jon Wetherall and the Onteca team in June 2015. The daring a quirky design instantly appealed to the whole team and work began to improve the graphics and extend the gameplay features. We’re bringing a unique racing experience using our 3 pillars or design: -Procedural track generation -Retrofit vehicle and environment design with a psychedelic twist -Pack style racing that keeps players in the action
