Wow, I didn't expect I will like this as much as I did. This is a really neat idea and could probably be turned into an actual product. If the author added some more content (like some landmarks sprinkled on the landscape every now and then, possibly some varied terrain eg. bridges over rivers, cities/villages, windmills, dams, maybe some simple wildlife, etc.) and released it on PS4/PS5 for few bucks I can imagine it could sell pretty well.
Edit: Seems there's actually a way to support the developer on Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/slowroads https://ko-fi.com/slowroads
Edit 2: Also props for good optimisation, it runs flawlessly on my M1 Macbook even on the highest setting.
- aniforprez 4y agoIt actually does generate bridges over bodies of water. If the road goes over a lake/river, it creates a simple bridge over it. I'm not sure if there are other bridge types I'm not sure I want cities but I agree with adding a few villages and landmarks
- M4v3R 4y agoYeah cities might be overkill, but small villages you can just pass through would add in to the chill atmosphere of driving the countryside.
- EwanG 4y agoIf we're putting in requests, my two would be a forest setting (would allow the Autumn option to be more colorful - particularly with some Aspen) and a Mountain/steep valley option. And yes, please advise when it's available for sale :-)
- anslo 4y agoThe next location I add may well be a denser forest in the mountains - I'm picturing tunnels, fog, and snow at higher elevations. I don't plan to sell it, but you can follow my twitter for updates. I'd like to keep it freely available if I can :) https://twitter.com/anslogen https://twitter.com/anslogen
- khold_stare 4y agoWhy not both? Have a free version and a paid version with more features/terrains/cars etc.
- EwanG 4y agoMade a KoFi contribution. Perhaps one of your "goals" can be to hit a level where you can keep it freely available?
- anslo 4y agoMuch appreciated! There isn't any reason it can't be freely available; it costs almost nothing to host. Development time is the true cost, so it's more a question of how much I'm able to add.
- Kukumber 4y agoThe beauty of that project is not because it is a product It is the fact that it is freely available for everyone to experience it thought your browser Racing games? there are a shit ton on steam/ps/xbox/switch/mobile Money people are very annoying
