Dev update!
Constant minor tweaks and new bits added to try and improve the design and 'flow' of moving around the level while also trying to get a bit more of a 'city-like' feel to it. Adding a car park, overhead structures for traffic lights, signs, even a roundabout!

Easy to pick up but hard to master! Check out our latest dev update and follow for more.
Level has been signed off and is ready for art pass. First step is getting all the road tiles in, adjusting spacing and collision, then we can start on art-ing the rest!
You will notice that the sweepers are quite agile and nimble little machines, mastering them is no easy task though😉

@godotengine.org cant wait to share more of what we are doing with your awesome engine!
Heres a peek at what our levels look like early in the design process. Working out scale, metrics and what feels 'right', we can get a sense of all those things using very basic geo.
Its also very quick and easy to make changes, then play again. Iteration is key!

My pal and fellow Scottish developer Chris Brown recently put his solo-dev racing game AGX GP up on Steam and you should definitely give it a look if you like AAA Wipeout visuals with ridiculously-fast twitch arcade gameplay. store.steampowered.com/app/4250680/...

Each semester we do a timed exercise. Students receive incomplete concept art, and have 8 hours to take it as far as they can, with an eye for form.
Keeping with Shaun's no AI Twitter scraping, I am posting the work over here.

More testing of our city street tile set. Its one thing to lay them out in blender, but to really see if they work you gotta get it in engine and let the rubber meet the road!
