they need to add the ability to throw elbows at other runners, slowing them a tad and pushing them towards obstacles. make it a "road rash" runner lol
pretty sure thats already a mechanic
@@Sinsanatis i didnt notice it in the video, if it is thats dope but to me it looked more like bumping in need for speed rather than intentional elbowing.
@@IVIUT3D iirc he only showed it once in the video. but im actually not sure if its just bumping or a button to deliberately knock them
1:28
@@Sinsanatis thats what im saying, I cant tell if its a button to attack or if its just a built in bump animation. strongly considering this game myself tho
remember the imaginary parkour guy? this is him in his hometown
The guy you see outside the window - The finger parkour guy (Just in case people don't understand)
wow it took me a moment to remember...
Hey there! Publishers of DEATHSPRINT 66 here. We just wanted to come back to this video and say a big thank you! The team at Sumo Newcastle (and The Bachman Media Network) loved this video so much that we've given you a "Community Hero" award banner in-game! We hope you enjoy it. See you on the track.
@@SecretMode I hope the publishers see & find my opinion valid, this game looks amazing! As soon as I saw it, I knew I could get hooked. Until he said it is not live service. There are just too many free to play titles out there to expect a massive amount of players to take a chance on paying for a game that will probably not last long due to low player count. I wish that wasn't the case but games die all the time now because that is how it is these days. In my opinion. Hope this feedback helps👍
Just to clarify, what I think could make a game like this blow up is... Go free to play, keep adding desirable rank up rewards to give players something to grind for, then introduce a battle pass with free & premium rewards, add a shop full of cosmetics so players can support the studio by buying battle pass or something that looks cool from the shop, while grinding for the rank up rewards that they want even more. I am not a huge fan of micro transactions & feel dirty suggesting all this but what works is what works & I have seen this recipe work over & over.
As a Mario Kart and Sonic Adventure 2 Battle fan. I approve of this awesome looking game 👌😀
This is one of the coolest takes I've seen with this type of gameplay. I like the switch ups with rails. Animations and designs look dope too.
I was really impressed. When I asked for a key I wasn't really expecting much, but it's nice to see such a polished and innovative game come out at release
Looks fun. I didn't even know this existed until being recommended your video. Thanks.
Thank you, that's exactly what I was hoping for when I made this, that people would discover the game and maybe pick it up!
I'd suggest covering the indie FPS game Friends vs Friends, it has a lot of the positives you mentioned in this video, such as no microtransactions, earning cosmetics through challenges, no battlepass, and consistent updates. The console release should be within the next month, and it has a very unique gameplay loop.
If you do check it out, I'll let you know it was made by 10 people as their first fps.
I'll have a look!
its probably going to get trumped by fragpunk when it comes out in all honesty
@@Sinsanatis As a Friends vs Friends enjoyer myself, I am super looking forward to Fragpunk.
@@yktrent2429 i was actually put off fvf with the style and design when i first came across it. plus the images making it look a lot more like a card game so i never really knew what it actually was until fragpunk started popping up. fragpunk def looks a little more my thing tho.
@@Sinsanatis Fragpunk is objectively a different gameplay loop though, and it will most likely flop due to the over saturation of 6v6 (or 5v5) hero shooters as of the moment. It is essentially just valorant with cards from Friends vs Friends. if FVF had marketing, I feel it would be a bigger game
Reminds me of a phone game back in the mid/ late 2000's, a game called, Runner 626. It was a java game, back when Sony Ericsson phones were the hot stuff. This just feels like the 3d version but added new stuff for multiplayer, as originally, it was single player game. Nice to see the concept taken and given another chance.
I was thinking the same game! Glad to see it having a spiritual successor this time
This needs to be on all platforms!!!!! Id buy it asap shit thy couldve showed this for ps5 pro an there would be so much hype instead of those old as games this is a gem!!!!!!
Yeah I really hope this comes to console
@@GeekyPastimes facts fresh air in the stale gaming world
who needs a console, just buy a Beelink mini computer, and you have way more for your money
imagine owning a PS5 pro , "i have the paperweight pro"
The game looks and feels like Jet Set Radio with running instead of skating. Which I enjoyed so much as a kid! It's already on my wishlist.
Great video! Thanks for sharing.
Feels like the spiritual sucessor to freejack, looks almost exactly like how that game used to play.
This feels like a slicker version of Freejack. I'm glad we're getting more runner racers.
Bro, this game has a crazy potential! Very emersive experience
welcome back Iridium Runners
anyone else ever play that game or was it just a fever dream of mine, spurred to life by Blockbuster’s closing sale?
Really just reminds me of Running Wild on the PS1
Yup, same. Iridium Runners on PS2 as well, and a Rayman game on PS1 did similar things.
This is what gaming needs new and creative ideas smh this looks sick
Well this game looks incredible.
It’s like a parkour racing game, but really fast.
I had a dream once of a game like this but framed as street races on Xtreme sports gear (ie. rollerblades, BMX, skateboards) and included cop chases
this could be a cool game in those VRs with a treadmill
I am really tuned to how Deathgrip will turn out.
This looks great. Glad you buy the game and own it. No extras.
Thanks devs!
Very cool idea and simple to understand, will most definitely pick this up once I find out where to play it
It's only on Steam right now, hopefully they bring it to more platforms (especially since it's designed for controller)
This game is one acessory to become a Rollerblade Race Game
Freejack Online is an spiritual predecessor of this concept, such a niche game but really fun imo
These maps really remind me of Distance, another highly underrated racing game imo
This game is exactly what I want from some modern Sonic racing game.
The Spirit of Runner 626 Lives on Thank You!!!!
Game looks cool af, I like that they don’t have microtransactions as well
I remember having an idea about a running racing game with modnation racing's item quirks, open parkour-ish track desings akin to sonic riders mixed with fall guys kind of obstacles, and you could beat your opponents out of the way with each wacky character having their own way of doing it !
This game seems pretty close to what i had in mind in some forms !
Highly recommend as a solo gamer with ADHD. Satisfies everything I need a game too satisfy. When you nail a flawless run; nothing else like it! Even with lack of players; it’s fun! I recommend the Episodes first though!
This game reminds me of “Mad Dash” on the original Xbox.. that was the first Xbox game I ever played
Bro a game that you buy and unlock everything with gameplay? That's what a call a throwback (in a good way)
They're supporting it with another 9 tracks over the next couple of months. NINE. For free. There are 15 tracks in the current version. That is huge.
This really reminds me of that one hoverboard race mini-game from the old Ratchet & Clank PS2 game. I do enjoy the aesthetics of this, but I feel like it suffers from the "UE5 lighting syndrome" that a lot of games have these days. It just makes the lighting and shadows look super splotchy and flickery. But I get it, UE5 is the most user-friendly engine out there, so it makes sense for indie devs to use it.
Really wish this game was getting the attention it deserves. I'm sure the absolutely tiny player base on Steam is deterring a lot of people from even trying the game.
Yeah especially people talking about it so much instead of focusing on how much fun it is
It needs to be free with micro transactions unlike what the guy says. That’s how multiplayer games survive nowadays.
Like a modern version of Running Wild on Playstation. Neat!
Very cool! This is almost literally a complete spiritual successor to the PSX classic Running High. I was wondering when a newer developer would capitalize on this. 😊
Thanks for bringing this game to our attention. Wishlisting it now and will probably buy and play it soon
I agree with what you have to say here about the state of things in gaming! instant follow :)
this game actually looks sick
Imma sub just for more of these videos. You are totally right that we should support games like this.
more of these vids! added to my wishlist from this!
This game reminds me a lot of the game Distance. I miss that game.
Reminds me of Kinetica for the PS2. Loved that gem. Sold on this
Subbed this is a amazing game how are you the only one covering this!??? This shows how shitty gaming is right now!!! So cool an creative different, visuals are top notch, wall run drift, hanging, weapons!!! This community needs this!!!!!
I just wanted a running game like this for ages so was excited when I saw it mentioned on Twitter! This video is doing pretty well so I might do a bunch more videos about games that are going under the radar
@@actuhviis sorry to hear tht, looks fun
This reminds me of Wip3out only they removed the plans and made the pilots run lmao Looks great
would be cool to do a giveaway seeing as you are so fond of the game and they gave you a free copy - that supports the team and generates clicks on your content?
The game isn't my style but I I love that they are going old school - no micro transactions, no battlepass. just a solid game, thats rad.
this reminds me of a mobile game i used to play during the java mobile for era called runner 626.
There was a gamemode like this in CSS mix of surf and deathrun was really fun
Imagine if this was a Sonic racing game
It's basically like the Sonic vs Shadow rival boss from Sonic Generations.
Bro i was just thinking if they made this into a sonic racing game 😭 Sonic cosemtic would be cool
An official Sonic R 2
No.
ngl they might be working on and may be using similar concepts on Sonic CrossWorlds as they have worked on and developed Sonic racing games before.
Looks pretty cool BUT I think they should've had the guy on Roller Skates instead of Running, then call it Death Skater (or Skating) simply because it would be more fitting for how fast you end-up going imo !!
Still, it looks different and worth a go.
Thanks for the video.
If FreeJack and Distance had a baby
This would be crazy in VR
I’m a beginner game dev and am currently studying for my masters in game dev and we have to make a game in this semester. I am actually working on creating a movement game, not quite sure the specific genre but this looks fire, I may try to do a racing game
Problem is that a buy2play game being released in the current time means far less people are willing to even try it. Especially considering how saturated the free2play market is. That sadly kills most games by rather unknown studios before they even release :/
That's why if you like the concept you should definitely support this (if you have the money of course
The game looks great! I've seen older games with a similar game play. The closest to me in design is a game called Running High, but I think this takes that design and improves upon it which is great!
100% getting this game
This feels like a game to a Korean Film that hasn't been released yet
I used to play a mobile game back in the days called ‘RUNNER 626’ its looks alote like that game. looks fun though
There was a game like this on the Nokia a century ago. I forgot the name but it was 2D and had a pretty good story
Looks like a successor to Kinetica from the PS2. one of my favorite games!
Looks really awesome!
It really is!
If anyone has played the game Speedrunners, this is just an advanced version of that game. I'm kind of looking forward to this.
It really doesn't feel much like speed runners to me, maybe it's the constant violence, feels a bit more like a kart racer
Yeah and speed runners can get extremely advanced
Please let this come to consoles, i need something like this DESPERATELY
I randomly got attention from it by an add on insta. I hope more people saw the ads and thought it was an interesting game
i remember after seeing the reveal trailer a few months back, it was an instant wishlist for me. looks awesome. i wish more would talk about it. also glad that it delivered and wasnt a flop. just that unfortunately im focused on playing other stuff rn. like ghost of tsushima that just went on sale.
im assuming hype is basically just score and since this is a gameshow type with an audience watching, its just hype built up by fans watching in the world
Going for leaderboard times is a lot of fun too. :)
There are a couple movement based mmos from the mid 2000s that played very similar to this. S4 League, StreetGears and I think the last one was Free trick (Its a parkour based racing mmo).
Humanoid version of Mario Kart. Nice! Looks really cool!
as tales runner fan imma need to try this
Looks great!
Walking: Has the only advantage over wheels in rapid momentum redirection
Game designers: Lets make a game where legs act like wheels and lose their only reason for existence!
A micheal Jackson skin would be funny added bonus he moonwalks the whole race
And they said it would be hard to make a flash video game the blueprint is right here
I really wish they would remake extreme G racing from N64 days. This reminds me of that a little bit for some reason
Yeah that game was amazing, I never played the sequel but I loved the original
Reminds me of like- Mad Dash Racing, mixed with an F-Zero aesthetic.
05:57 SPLIT SECOND MENTIONED
i was already interested but this sold the deal
I really wish it had got a sequel
Microtransactions for indie devs can be neccesary. That’s why servers get shut down, because they are losing too much money and not bringing in enough money. There are two sides to microtrasactions (I’m talking abt indie games mainly)
I think there is a way to blend these types of games with the free to play meta. Imagine a progression pass instead of a battlepass where the game is free with no unlockable cosmetics and limited selection of features and then you buy in to unlock the full game. The game gets more attention for being free, but if you enjoy it you unlock the full experience.
EDIT: to put it in more simple terms I'm just suggesting a multiplayer demo for paid games. So that your friends can try it out and play it with you before buying. Or you can play everything you just cant unlock cosmetics without paying a one time payment.
It's odd that it's a paid game.. The cosmetics and gameplay scream free2play. Looks fun and interesting, but I rarely buy games anymore.
@@user-ne9sd4ow1o So instead of paying $25 for a full game with all the content you'd rather play a "free" game that charges $25 per skin? Come on man.
You're part of the problem. Not everything needs to be a f2p
@@fencingfireferret1188 a problem really? Tell me how that's a problem. Opens the game to more players, allows progression for players that want to support it.
@@TheOnlyJohnAbraham I would rather pay 60 to unlock a complete game. Problem is the big corporations have the data to prove they can sell enough 25 dollar skins to meet margins.
This game is basically 3d fun run
Freejack ran so this game could sprint !!
Cmon PS5.....what you need a petition? Put this game on the system already
Distance/Neodash but with people (clones) instead of cars. Looks interesting.
That's what I was thinkin lol. It has the vibes and the transfers
It feels lot like a racing version of Quake with all the trickjumping. I really enjoyed rocketjumping, grenade jumping, plasma creeping up walls... and this feels similar. Air boost, bunnyhop, air hop, coyote time jump...
I think this game needed a jump button, so that you can deliberately dodge that saw thing by chance since it is a racing parkour-esque.
They need the first decendants Bunny!!!
Looks amazing.
tks for the recomendation
It’s out!!!! Awesome
Yeah I'd be following this for months, super happy it made it to release
Very unique in Deed.
This is so sick
I love the look of the game and that it's kind of like Mario Kart with the power ups. I hope this does well as this is the kind of game we want more of. I'll buy it to supprot the devs for sure
This game does look absolutely awesome, I'm definitely gonna get it as it's on a sale on steam right now... also I noticed you mentioned the game Split Second... AWWW MAN I was absolutely addicted to that game on my PS3, I was an absolute master on it, it was very very rare I didn't come first place in online races against other players, and for those back in the day who played Split Second on PS3 you may of known me as my old gamer tag was PREDATOR_01 back in 2010 onward, I even beat many of the DK's (Drift Kings) and they'd get so upset with me it was funny 😂🤣
But then Disney had to go and ruin it all by not bringing out new updates for the game to fix bugs and glitches that kept happening, and then after a few years they then shut down the servers so you can only play single player against the bot cars now, and it's just no fun anymore just keep winning against bot cars... so yeah another reason for me to HATE DISNEY!... but it would be amazing if some other games dev company made another racing car game exactly like split second but for todays next gen consoles and gaming PC's cause that would be awesome!
Anyone remember a game called Nitronic Rush? This game reminds me of that
So, mario Kart, without items and karts, im all for it
this SUPER looks like a digipen student game I played once
This is the most creative racing game since Mario Kart
Fun run 😂
Would love to see Kinetica remade with these graphics.
Gives me a bit of a Wipeout feel. Looks great!
yeah there's definitely a bit of that in it, especially with navigating drifts
This is just Pepsi man innit
Sumo Digital also released a MMO Kart racer almost at the same time with 60 players in same race.
It sounds like a well-honed cross between Kinetica and Unreal Tournament.
