The game has undergone a ton of improvements for release on this platform. I'm excited to announce the game now features an intense "first person" viewpoint, an excellent idea proposed by several members of the Pinkbike community.
I've been lucky enough to have visited and ridden my bike in some of the most stunning landscapes in the world, each having their own unique aesthetic and natural ambience. The graphical capabilities of modern PC hardware allowed much greater freedom in translating the atmosphere of different environments into the game. Each level has been re-built from the ground up with dense foliage, atmospheric lighting, environment fog, weather, real-time lighting/shadows and texture detail.
The bikes and riders have also had a visual overhaul, with new paint jobs and more defined characters. Additional component detail includes tyre knobbles, brake levers, fork seals, stem bolts and top caps!
A whole load of original new bangin' tunes (with playlist shuffling) are included, along with tweaked level design and Xbox game controller support - giving the game a much more intuitive, tactile and immersive playing experience! A new level pack "Freeride World Tour" is already in production and Oculus Rift support is planned for the near future.
I'm extremely grateful for the support and feedback I've received (both good and bad!) throughout the duration of the project. The Pinkbike community really has been invaluable in getting a grass-roots project like this off the ground and as such you all get a mention in the games credits! I've felt for years that Mountain Biking has lacked exposure in the mainstream video games market and I really hope this latest release does our sport justice.
Happy Shredding!
