Shanghai, June 2, 2011 – The launch of GoGo Racer means
the wait is finally over for millions of kart racing fans around
the world. With stunning graphics and a highly advanced 3D physics
engine, GoGo Racer is currently the only free-to-play off road kart
racing game available today. The game is currently licensed to
several operators in China and is now seeking new partners for
other territories around the world.
GoGo Racer allows players to customize their vehicles in
thousands of ways as they compete on dozens of awesome tracks in a
wide variety of environments. Race winners get rewarded with car
parts or modifications they can use to enhance vehicle performance.
Player modes include single player, head to head, combat, and team
based. Players can complete for top race times and public rankings
on each track. Solo players can challenge their own best times or
race to see how many special items they can collect. A
sophisticated ranking system allows operators to hold tournaments
and large scale competitions. Players can win medals based on
successful times which can be redeemed for valuable prizes.
GoGo Racer has been 4 years in the making from developer
Radiance Digital Entertainment, with the last year focused entirely
on polishing, refining, and enhancing the user experience. The
result is that GoGo Racer has the gameplay and feel of a console
game, even though it is played on a PC. This was the original
intent of Radiance CEO Monte Singman, whose past credits include
dozens of big name console titles that include the Test Drive:
Offroad series from THQ, as well as numerous online and PC
games.
“My idea was to bring the speed and precision of console
action games onto the PC platform, while at the same time taking
advantage of the inherent advantages of a PC, such as its
networking capability. In addition, I wanted to make sure that the
game I created can be played by people with average PCs, not just
with tricked out, high end machines”, said Mr. Singman.
“And with GoGo Racer, I believe we have succeeded in
this”, he added.
- Key features of GoGo Racer include:
- Realistic physics – Karts react realistically to the
surrounding environment as players collide, jump over ramps, skid,
and drift - High End 3D graphics rarely seen in online games.
- 29 different tracks including city, desert, ice, space station,
volcano, jungle, etc. - Hundreds of items that players can use to upgrade their vehicle
including nitrous tanks, engine enhancements, upgraded
transmission, suspension, tires; even missiles! - Players can band together to form clubs that compete with other
clubs for prizes and bragging rights. Clubs can customize their
karts with their club logo, and can also have their own private
channel in chat. - Racing Win Bonus – After winning a race, players receive random
car parts as a reward. These components can be used to create
modification kits for their kart, allowing them to further tweak
its performance. -
Special techniques such as the “landing boost”
, which allows a player to gain a powerful burst of speed when
landing from a jump off a platform or ledge.
Visitors to E3 can play GoGo Racer in booth #2682 (Judo Baby,
South Hall), contact person is Bill Gardner.
