{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/6965937/054278332ea2a086537382389db8cd5190d14917.jpg Hello, racers! We know that many of you appreciate unique gameplay, fast battle cars, adventures on other planets and cozy indie projects... That’s why we want to tell you about a new game created by a small indie team (consisting of only 2 people) that we are publishing! https://store.steampowered.com/app/2753870/Kickback/ Kickback is a pixel art top-down shooter with an unusual mechanic: the recoil of weapons is the only way to move around in the game. Different weapons have special features and characteristics that affect the movement physics and create a unique experience. The demo is already available on Steam, and it has unique achievements. A few days ago, the demo got a major graphics and effects update. There are bright neon colors, various lighting features, and an interlacing effect reminiscent of good old CRT TV sets! We took everything that we love from retro, sprinkled it with 80s games vibes and combined it with the dynamic fights against mutants in a biopunk setting. We would be very grateful if you could support the project and add Kickback to your Steam wishlist! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/6965937/97695423d97afa52be5f421da0963d07859c4abe.gif

After the last major update, certain players may have experienced freezes while racing. We have fixed this bug and it should no longer be an inconvenience for you. Thank you for your messages and bug reports! They help us make the game even better!

We would like to say that our interplanetary grand prix attracted racers from all over the world — and that’s really cool! That's why we would like to share another good announcement with you: with the latest update, several new localizations have been added to the game. Here is the full list of available languages: — English — French — German — Italian — Japanese — Korean — Russian — Simplified Chinese — Spanish — Traditional Chinese

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/6965937/b315caebb1d0bcbbe90cfeedfaf5ca27bb359178.png Hello, racers! We are happy to announce that the long-awaited football-themed update BlazeBowl and the big StarTrack DLC for the Steam version of BlazeRush are coming out today! After today’s update, the owners of the base version of the game on Steam will have access to a new game mode called BlazeBowl. It allows you to play American football with the BlazeRush cars. Two new characters were also added to the game. Pass the ball to each other, make deceptive moves, shoot and explode; do anything to score a goal against your opponent! The Steam players will also be able to purchase the previously unavailable BlazeRush: Star Track DLC. It includes an additional campaign with 30 missions, new type of transport, a new weapon and a special boss — a huge alien spaceship! Finally, we would like to note that we were able to add the support for the Quest 2 and Quest 3 VR headsets for the Steam version of the game in this update. Celebrate the coming 10th anniversary of BlazeRush with us!

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/6965937/d0ed6594b47393a1858d084ea0a41818b99a296e.jpg In the last news we indicated that the version for Mac and Linux systems will become completely unavailable. This message was incomplete and contained an error! We would like to correct ourselves and make things clear: the version for Linux and Mac OS will not receive the upcoming update. However, users of these operating systems will be able to continue to download and play the current version of BlazeRush. We apologize for our mistake and wish you the wildest interplanetary races! 🖖

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/6965937/310baa2031c54769209dde36410aad69a239dfd5.jpg Hello, intergalactic racers! Due to technical difficulties, support for the game on Linux and Mac systems will be discontinued and the SteamVR version will also become unavailable. Unfortunately, downloading and running BlazeRush on Linux, Mac and SteamVR will soon be impossible. This will not affect players who use Windows systems. In addition, we are happy to announce that a major update for the Windows version will soon be released to celebrate the tenth anniversary of BlazeRush! Stay tuned!

http://img.targem.ru/images/799ad50ba34b7cd331a255f0a4f8.png Hello friends! We were working hard for several weeks to deliver two features, that should help random people find each other and play together. First of all, game now uses UPnP to poke ports needed for steam matchmaking. It won't make all parties visible in the list, but we really hope that it will work for most people. Also, we will release dedicated server application, as a more practical way to host online games. Changelog: - Improved matchmaking. - Fixed display on not-native aspects in fullscreen. - Added key tips on lobby and race results screens. - Fixed death-roller twitching on client. - Fixed bug with additional cups in career mode. - Fixed connection throug steam interface during gameplay. - Fixed ping indicator in server list.
