These bikes don’t work over water except you’ve received POWER!

Akupara Video games has introduced that they’ll be publishing Videocult’s upcoming lo-fi hoverbike recreation, Airframe Extremely.

Until you rely all of the rust, Airframe Extremely is kind of a departure from Videocult’s earlier recreation, Rain World. On this one, you journey round on a hoverbike, profitable races and eliminating the competitors. Whereas the trailer offers lengthy take a look at the gameplay, each it and the press launch I received with it counsel that there’s nonetheless a lot to do in establishing the mechanics of the sport. For one factor, you by no means actually see a beginning grid or end line. There’s additionally fight intermingled with what in any other case seems like racing.

It seems like Videocult is concentrated on getting the texture of the hoverbike proper after which working from there. You may actually inform how a lot effort has gone into the animations and physics of the sport, because the rider leans and the burden shifts on the bike. It’s additionally attention-grabbing how one can plant your weapon within the floor to allow fast turns.

Actually, whereas rather a lot is left to be seen with reference to gameplay, what has been proven is sufficient to get me desirous about Airframe Extremely. I used to like Jet-Moto once I was youthful, and the hoverbikes remind me of that. In the meantime, the lo-fi early-3D aesthetic and CRT filter, together with the cyberpunk environments actually communicate to me. I assume I simply love filth.

One other factor lacking from the press supplies is a launch date. Proper now, we solely know that Airframe Extremely is coming to Steam.
