EARLY VIDEO: I Love Racing Games, They Suck!
Added 2023-02-23 17:37:10 +0000 UTCYes... this was posted early as an "image" instead of a "video"; do not make posts when you're in the middle of staying up for 48 hours to reset your schedule, it doesn't go well.
Hey everybody, I know it's hard to believe but... this project really is in the closing stages! All I need is add a couple lower thirds, and credits. It'll go public on Sunday, but as is promised, y'all get an early viewing.
As always, as it's not 100% complete, any and all feedback is appreciated, and can go to improving the video even further.
I just wish I was more honest with myself during the New Year that this is what I wanted to work one. The Dead Space project, I tried, but just didn't have the heart for it. Then again, I got SUPER sick for three wicks during the middle January, so perhaps it wouldn't have mattered.
Regardless, I'm happy to have this project done, and I hope you enjoy it.
Also, I'll be making another post about this in the future, but you should know, I recently signed up with a company called MoreYellow, who are going to try to find sponsorships for my videos. I've warned them that I'm extremely picky and that three minute Raid Shadow Legends bits, as tempting as the bad puns are, will not fly, but that hasn't stopped them from wanting to work with me.
We'll see how it goes; I personally think, especially in longer form projects where a break could even be appreciated, it could work, but as I've never done this before, and I already keep YT ads to a minimum for the sake of pacing, I'm still... apprehensive lets say.
I'll keep y'all in the loop on what's going on and give previews of an Ad if one is in the works. Currently, MoreYellow are looking for this video, but I don't think they'll secure something that quickly, we'll see.
In the meantime, thank you for sticking with me during this long stint of silence and recovery, it means more than I can write.
Best wishes,
Raycevick

A game idea that has been in my mind for a long time (which I am quite sad to say will never materialise) is a getaway driver game, for criminals. However, here's the catch: simulator handling and damage. Crash into a wall at 50kph? You're done. The Car is done, maybe someone from your crew is dead from the collision, or you are injured, leaving you less capable of driving in the next robbery. This system could be even more expanded, evading the police at high speed will eventually wear your tires, engine, leave you empty on fuel, stuff like that. If the police sets up roadblocks you gotta find a way around them, if they identify your car you might have to swap it and burn your old one, the possibilities are endless.

2023-02-26 21:38:01 +0000 UTCYou know, when you talked about the concept I thought the it would be a tad hyperbole but you're right, racing games really are lacking in uniqueness and are stuck in the same ol song and dance for a while with not much to show for in gameplay (because as you said, for most people the differences in tire physics isn't gonna be noticeable). So they just see more of the same. The concept you mentioned felt very different and yet also super obvious, which makes me wonder how come it hasn't been tried.
