90s Anime Racing RPG! Faster Means Forever. https://store.steampowered.com/app/3113580/Kaido_Genkai/
Play an early build of Kaido Genkai at Comic Frontier in Indonesia this weekend! //// I am working my absolute butt off trying to get the build ready - sorry for anyone waiting on messages from me!

Racing kei cars is kinda ridiculous and I hope you're here for it like I am. (Also don't worry, there are plenty of bigger cars in the game too..)

Come play Kaido Genkai!! We’ll be at the Mashin Asia booth at Comic Frontier at Indonesia Convention Exhibition (ICE) BSD City, Nov 15 and 16! 🙂‍↕️

Bring back popups!

This is still my favourite area in game. You won't get to drive here till later, though.

A big part of the game is driving up to other cars and talking. Kinda like.. an RPG.

I like racing in slow cars

I added a randomized delay to the lights, so at night they don't all turn on at the exact same moment. It was super jarring before and this way looks much better! Was really simple to add, don't know why I didn't think of it before.

Reposting some goodness from Twitter, as the artist evgeniy doesn't seem to have bsky presence, but his Driver-like cars modelled for a game he's working on are simply too good to ignore:

Delivering tofu would be a little on the nose, so... Dango deliveries?

Super super super productive day working on the opponent vehicle logic and some other significant game fixes. The cars pathfind a LOT better now, timers are more consistent, and a few other odds and ends c:

I think I'm mostly done with the objectives menu! It populates from the game's completion structure, so I don't have to update it manually, which is awesome.

Been months since I worked on the objectives screen, but I did some updates on it today! Still rough around the edges, but this is the new concept.

Did a little banner trade with our friends @mach1game.bsky.social! You'll find KG's advertising in their game, and vice versa. Pretty neat futuristic cel-shaded racer they have going on. Here's pics of both~

Holy moly @holeecrab.bsky.social really cooked with this character artwork.

This is going to look really good in game~ More great work by @hacaosuka.bsky.social

Been working away all day on behind the scenes stuff. c: Edging closer and closer to actually starting to build out the demo.

Big steps today setting up the game progression structure behind the scenes! Saving progress, unlocks, races completed, dialogues triggered, world events, etc. Still need to refine, but I'm happy. This felt daunting and now its a weight off my shoulders.

Finally got around to making the day/night cycle persistent across play sessions. That feels like a milestone even though it wasn't a huge task. I'd been putting off stuff regarding saving & save files since it's still new to me, but got some big chunks figured out lately.

Just two lil hatchbacks having a good time~

Entry denied. You can't just go into the caves right out of the gate...

Work on the next car has commenced by @hacaosuka.bsky.social! Here is a completely unguessable screenshot for you. 😂

Still working on character designs with @holeecrab.bsky.social, so for now, the cops are just.. some guy.

Worked on camera logic today! Improved field of view and camera position transitions depending on speed. Subtle! There's also camera shake and anime speed lines (both are more obvious in game than in this video). I can also change the threshold speed these effects appear at, depending on the car.
