Racing the SUN in Zeepkist!

[@MLWJ1993]

I like tracks like these aesthetically. It looks phenomenal & isn't the standard one road to follow type of ordeal.

[@NotYurpio]

love race the sun, didnt think anyone else knew about it tho, cool track!

[@R.B.]

I thought this was brilliantly done. RTS has been a favorite of mine for years. The VR version gets intense.

[@Tkdriverx]

Oh man Race The Sun, what a classic. I love how it progressively gets harder as you progress through regions. And the shadow/sun mechanic is satisfying.

[@Kodiak01]

🎼 "here comes the sun. du du du du 🎶

[@FatherMaldonado]

That song’s stuck in my head now, thanks 😂

[@FatherMaldonado]

Cool track! Making it slightly uphill to make the boosters really count is such a great idea for this type of track

[@FakeSchrodingersCat]

This is a track calling out for a Dapper style underground cheese route.

[@BlazingImp77151]

Especially with how the checkpoints are just massive planes across the map.

[@wingnutmcmoomoo494]

oh man i haven't thought about race the sun in forever. It's such a nice chill game.

[@mementomori5580]

Rougelite. The name / genre you were looking for in the beginning is Rougelite.

[@TwoFace-]

I suppose you're not incorrect, I just think of roguelites as like, binding of Isaac, RoR2, Gunfire Reborn, etc. I have a difficult time associating it with a driving based game I suppose.

[@ShaddyFromHatena]

feels to me more like an arcade style game than rogue like tbh, despite the progression

[@TommyCrosby]

​@@TwoFace-It's unusual to have a racing roguelite but roguelite is a game mechanics not a genre by itself. So any game with those mechanics is a roguelite.

[@ShaddyFromHatena]

Race to the Comments!

[@maskharat]

"Just steal ideas, it will be fine" that's been the mantra of artists around the world for forever. You just need to steal enough ideas and mash them together until you get something somewhat original.

[@ideallyyours]

People get angry if you automate the theft and call it "generative AI"

[@LtVax27]

Good concept, great execution.

[@Linzi_]

fun map :D My line was very similar to your best time, the only difference was staying to the right of the first "black hole tunnel" for a slightly straighter line, and maybe even more boost?

[@BLKBRD-SR71]

TwoFace: makes a track The chat: "This is fantastic" kAN: makes a track The chat: This is PAIN Cool track Twoface.

[@BasilLecher]

This is gorgeous.

[@Neb-zb2sw]

I'm so happy someone else knows this game it's so good

[@APS_Inc]

Race the sun, now there's a blast from the past. I remember playing it when it was just a unity flash game in the browser. There were no power ups then.

[@PettenVeevo]

Phenomenal track - I agree with Yannic

[@bennutt5050]

I don't know why I thought someone made a mod for zeepkist at the start

[@Yorie1234]

Duuuude, I love race the sun!

[@TommyCrosby]

So, the new meta is to prevent Maki to find the optimal path by making multiple path and choices? 😅

[@TwoFace-]

Funny enough, maki wasnt there for the recording of this track

[@benja1378]

Cool track!

[@PandaMane]

LMAO the fact that KZbin knows you mentioned Todd Howard and put it in the description XD

[@TwoFace-]

LOL no way? Did it actually?

[@PandaMane]

​@@TwoFace-doesn't look like you can see it on mobile, but it did on my computer haha

[@cantbedeleted]

If you want to make another game based track, I think Color Tunnel or Color Tunnel 2 would make for a very cool map. I don't know if Color Tunnel can be played, but I think Color Tunnel 2 may be playable somewhere.

[@lostGash]

Also, go support the Race the Sun developers: Flippfly Games! They're working on an even more Starfox inspired game called Whisker Squadron.

[@Necrotechian]

regards to the chasing sun concept since the ship in that was solar powered you should have made it so that every shadow is actually a very low power slowster

[@TwoFace-]

We already spent FAR too much time on this map with the logic, neat tho

[@Necrotechian]

@@TwoFace- cool but unreasonable youtube comment vs sensible map maker... i never stood a chance since i failed when i said cool :P

[@DaysofElijah317]

Be a go game developer- lie to the people- it’s what they want! 😂😂😂

[@Tuskbumper]

Oh i remember the first game in the vid.

[@sharkoftheday]

Wait the reference was intentional! I saw Maki play this on stream and it just made me think how much I love Race the Sun even though I'm awful at the game.

[@TwoFace-]

It's tough for sure :) fun though

[@Zachafinackus]

man, I haven't seen Race the Sun mentioned in a long while

[@karatydolphi]

0.001 away from 2nd place

[@toothygaming]

None Jump with left beef

[@ioi88]

Stealing from me now? I have you know I stole that from Diabler first!

[@TwoFace-]

Lololol #whelp

[@ShaddyFromHatena]

Funnily enough, I didn't even steal it, I independently developed it only to be told it was already made XD Not the first time for that X3

[@TwoFace-]

@@ShaddyFromHatena no way? 😯

[@SuperJonono]

Try to build a Track where the pieces fly into sight to build itself real time while racing!!! Kind of stop motion and copying the logic for it over and over. Man. That would be another level of zeepkist expierience!

[@ShaddyFromHatena]

@@SuperJonono I've considered this, but current logic makes it difficult and laggy. When logic v2... Maybe....

[@graylinbeaudry4651]

hey there really aren't enough anti grav race games any more? and you are what one heck of a map maker. lol todd... he was in fact responsible for starfield.
