Multiplat The 90's Arcade Racer

[JR#8]

This is a an arcade racing game for PC, Mac, Linux and hopefully OUYA based on games that I loved playing in the arcades growing up.You could say it's inspired by those games, maybe a tribute to them or simply a rip off, any of these could be true!
The three that ate up most of my coins where Scud Race, Daytona USA and Indy 500, my goal is to recreate the feeling these games evoked from players by maintaining the colorful, vibrant look and sense of speed but with modern visuals and car handling models.

MIND = BLOWN.

Classic Sega fans will love this! I will be donating as this looks excellent.

HOLY SHIT!!!!! that looks phenomenal

I must have this. How cool would it be if SEGA threw in some cash for the kickstarter. That top pic is what i'd expect a Daytona 3 to look like, just perfect.

Too many racing games go for the realistic look nowadays when this is all they need to be, bring back the 90's Arcade racer i say.

Looks great!

Sega Rally was my favourite. I've got it on PS3 and give it a whirl occasionally for a bit of nostalgic fun.

Good news, They have exceeded their required amount.

Game is even going to be published on Wii U eShop.

Looks quite good. Back in the day when i used to get $10 pocket money every Friday, i used to spend the lot at Timezone on Daytona and the likes that same night when my parents went shopping. Looks pretty fun this one.

As you probably know, part of working together brought along the opportunity develop and publish ’90s Arcade Racer for Wii U (among other places). The development is moving along well and for this update we’ll share some details related to the Wii U version of the game and our plans.


Without getting into minutia that we’re probably not allowed to share in great detail, some things that worked on PC couldn’t be ported exactly Wii U without having affecting how the game performs on the Nintendo console–and probably other consoles, too. However, we’re very happy with the results. Fidelity, image quality and a smooth framerate are our priorities. Detractors note, Wii U is proving very capable of running the game at 60fps at 720p with 4xMSAA and FXAA resulting in a crystal clear image. It’s simply beautiful.

Many of you have emailed us asking for a release date, unfortunately it’s hard to give you a solid date but mid 2014 is our goal for now.

Looks brilliant, cant wait. Hopefully gets SEGA off their arses to port Daytona 2 to PS4/X1 or start working on a Daytona 3.

World needs more 90's arcade racers, too much focus on realism nowadays.

Sega Rally for PS4 would be killer!
