It reminds me of Toca and Grid. It was fun because it was a simcade game close to an arcade. We need fun simcades like PGR, Driveclub, Grid, Wreckfest.

I'm with you, simcades are frowned upon and that's sad. There's nothing wrong with them, we wanna have fun with our favorite cars without hardcore sim elements shoved down our throats, like the Xbox 360 days!

french game, a lot of french cars, love that renault 5 turbo 3e, btw maybe add cars like the venturi? good luck w the game

I am beyond excited that you feature the Salzburgring ❤️ underappreciated track! The surroundings are not really that accurate, but I happily take it.

[@varyagace]

The Switch is really lacking in good racing games, especially in the simcade area. How did you solve the issue of the controller not having analog triggers for precision of inputs? That's what holds it back a lot in my view. Excited to see your game release!

[@EVENo94]

Just use right analog stick for throttle and brakes.

[@granturismo1195]

I dont like the camera moving closer when you brake, otherwise it looks good

[@AbeRod1986]

Frame drops @2:44?
Otherwise, looks good! Interested to try it out! Any plans for a demo?

[@PatrickVogi]

Salut les gars et bravo pour ce joli projet sur Switch . Je n'ai pas cette machine mais je serait curieux de tester tout ça donc je me le prendrai en même temps que la machine . Merci aussi de faire vivre la passion française pour le course au travers de jeux 🟦⬜🟥

[@guillermoconesa5549]

hi, friend ! Excuse me, does the game have music during the races? thank you

[@DeezNutzzz542]

Honestly....im getting some project cars vibe in this game ( damm i miss Project cars) also it has split screen a feature that is basically non existed

[@TGNTheGamesNintendoOficial]

Will the game have weather effects like rain? Night drive? And will the game have crossplay online?

Fps are on vacation

[@PatrickVogi]

Still better than nearly other racing game on Switch. (Look at WRC or V-Rally, it's even worst and nobody complains.)
Nintendo should release next console soon because Switch is now really outdated

[@Subsonicsvideos]

@@PatrickVogi WRC or V-Rally dont presume of Switch, version, even they are all a SCAM

[@PatrickVogi]

@@Subsonicsvideos Biggest problem is that all racing games on Switch are looking very average at best. The hardware is not made for racing games with details and realistic tone.
Hope Switch 2 will be better on this point.

looks good for what you have to work with on the Switch . Just gonna leave this here from the reddit :
The Switch CPU is pretty far behind smartphones, particularly those from Apple. It's based on the 2014 A57 architecture which was ARM's first stock 64 bit design. There have been three new designs from ARM since then, the A72, A73, and A75. Each generation brought a large increase in performance while also lowering power-draw from the previous. A73 is what went into most 2017 phones using the Snapdragon 835, and now we're seeing A75 in Snapdragon 845 phones. Apple crafts their own custom CPU designs, although still fundamentally based on ARM. The A72/A73/A75 cores used in modern smartphones can offer up to 2-3x performance over the low clocked A57 Nintendo is using, and you can add another 2X on top of those for Apple's chips. So if you have a 2016 phone or beyond, you can expect about 2-3x the CPU performance. There just isn't any competition here, the Switch gets smoked in the CPU department.
TL;DR , The switch chipset is 10 years old and even then its worse than smartphones from 2014
