Oh hey, the turning is fixed.

Still looks super pretty and I'm still looking forward to this.

 

[Zapages]

reminds me of Horizon Chase, which was awesome!!!

 

[TheMoon]

Very nice!

 

[moltonasty]

Ughh that looks awesome

 

[Lettuce]

Any news when this is being release?

Awww yeah. Release when?

 

[Like the hat?]

Thanks for the bump, first I'm hearing of this. Definitely on my radar. I've put in an embarrassing amount of time into outrun 3d.

 

[Hogger]

Thanks for the bump... I had no idea this existed and it looks awesome!

 

[TheMoon]

the month old tweet you see up there is the latest on the game.

 

[retroman]

Any news when this is being release?

The official 80's Overdrive website still mentions late Autumn 2016.

So Spring 2017 then.

Dunno, but here's some new footage: https://twitter.com/80soverdrive/status/796769205118976000

 

[Mdk7]

Honestly, screenshots looked a lot better.

 

[TheMoon]

new footage. https://twitter.com/80soverdrive/status/812042831506325506

probably also coming to Switch at some point.

This is looking way better than the Instagram shorts they showed. Music is awesome as well. 3DS going out with a goddamn bang.

 

[CrashPrime]

Control+F Nicalis. We good.

 

[The Lamonster]

This looks awesome.

So true lol

 

[Pancakes R Us]

When's this due out?

Q1/2 2017

 

[psyfi]

I love the aesthetic, but I just can't play 2D racers with scrolling and scaling effects like this. Feels too janky.

 

[nynt9]

The ingame footage doesn't look as good as the bullshots in the OP. Kind of disappointed. Hopefully by release they can make it look better.

There are no bullshots. They just picked scenes with lots of stuff on screen at the same time. Stop the video at parts with more fleshed out scenery. No difference.

 

[Naked Snake]

Normally I would be all over this, but... Something feels off about it. And I don't like how the car looks.

Nobody makes them like SEGA I'm afraid.

 

[Galang]

Still looks awesome to me! And love the music

The headlight bloom in the screenshots is noticeably absent from the ingame footage. Also, the screenshots are way higher resolution than a 3DS. 3DS resolution is 240p, screenshot has the screen size at something like 740p. As such, sprite detail is reduced in the ingame footage.

It's literally impossible for OP screenshots to not be bullshots because of pixel counting. The image has like 6 times the pixels of a 3DS screen.

Well then, consider them the first screens of the Switch version.

 

[Ezalc]

This game looks dope as fuck. Can't wait.

That's maybe because there's no police car with sirens turned on in the footage. Since you don't see any headlights in the screenshots or the video footage

You can see plenty of scenes with brake light that looks identical, though. Plus YT compression blur, naturally.

 

[Dice]

Looks like absolute shit unless you can turn off the CA and fake VHS misaligned tracking effects.

Those are clearly just for the trailer.

Those are clearly just for the trailer.

Which they even say on twitter.

 

[Naeval]

It remembers me more "Tog Gear" or jaguar xj220 than Out Run, but it looks nice

 

[Naked Snake]

Can't wait.

Yes you can.

 

[naib]

I'm not so concerned about the frames in the turning animation as much as the car pivoting too far in each direction. If that makes sense.

For example the car in Outrun only changes slightly when you turn.

This was my first reaction. Turns too deep.

New animated footage on their Twitter page!

https://twitter.com/80soverdrive/status/784402382872571904

Appears to be fixed here.

 

[patientx]

Looks like lotus I played when I was a kid on PC. Also in that game there was fueling didn't see any other game up to day with fueling mechanic.

 

[Ezalc]

Yes you can.

Don't tell me what I can and can't do.

 

[ChemicalWorld]

I know port begging is not allowed but omgpleasereleasethisoneveryconsoleandstorefrontthankyou.

*grabs coat*

 

[Patrick Young]

3DS? What a waste.

 

[visiblemode]

Adore the art style. Might grab it!

 

[Colonel Mustard]

3DS? What a waste.

Nah. After 3D Classics: Outrun. These types of games are made for the console. They look fantastic.

And heck, the indie market on 3DS is pretty darn healthy too. Even so, don't fret! They said they're probably porting it to Switch as well.

 

[Naked Snake]

3DS? What a waste.

 

[Mr-Joker]

Looks cool, I will be sure to check it out.

3DS? What a waste.

How is it is a waste that the game is releasing for the 3DS?

 

[Patrick Young]

It should've been on Wii U or PC so it would be on a real screen with sharp graphics.

 

[OrbitalBeard]

3DS? What a waste.

Also most likely coming to Switch.

This + Horizon Chase on PS4 (next year, hopefully?) makes me happy.

 

[TheMoon]

3DS? What a waste.

you're one classy son of a banana. +1

3DS? What a waste.

More like your post that is that.

 

[Muskieratboi]

Are we seriously getting 80's Overdrive before 90's Arcade Racer? Sigh.

But srsly, looking amazing, this one.

Well, the numbers work out like that.

Nicalis have to put all their eggs in the Binding of Isaac basket to stay afloat, I guess. It's a little embarrassing.
