The selling point of this game is that I think our gameplay loop is fun and I like the music.

I'm thankful for the comments and ratings that the game has gotten so far, thanks everyone!

Grind between 3 rails and maintain your balance along the way while jumping to avoid pitfalls. Travel across the city listening to nice music all along the way.

(inspirations) Outside of the clear gameplay inspirations being ratchet and clank rail grinding and tony hawk grinding balancing, there was another inspiration that influenced the aesthetic of this game.

While thinking about the mood for deathrail, the thing that really comes to mind the most was grinding rails in the city as shadow in sonic adventure 2. This was such a mood for me because I remember the high intensity music, grinding through the dark city streets, vibrant colors, and cool protagonist. I think that excitement or at least a good portion of it was captured in deathrail.

(some dev notes) I can't think of a longer post to make, so I'll just give some quickfire facts. The scarf took way too much development time. It might have been hubris or determination, but damn, too much time got spent on that cool looking scarf. Board is only 3d because we wanted the tilting to be readable by just looking at the player and doing that with frames, seems a bit ambitious and not the better option. I wanted to do more lore for it to give the world a more solid sense of thought being put into it, but ultimately the lack of development time let that get pushed aside. I also am interested in releasing a short free full version of deathrail just so it can be a complete package, but that's uncertain at this time.

Anyway, thanks for playing our game, it does mean a lot to us.

minor dev notes: Our team narrowed it down to 2 ideas and we decided with a coin flip. I got the idea that I wanted less, but that idea turned into deathrail, so it all worked out in the end. Also the scarf was only added on a whim really after another team member mentioned it, but it looks cool so I'm not complaining.
