Astronoid : spaceships racing online from canyons

Hello

As nobody seems to go and read topics in advertising, and as I'm not an advertiser but an addicted gamer.

I come here to post a thread about Astronoid, a game I love and who would deserve to be known.

I discovered this game 8 weeks ago and am really addicted to it. It’s so fun to race online with other peoples. I would like to race with more people, that’s why I came here to recommend it. We aren’t so much players yet because the game has just been released for the first time. The developpers haven’t got any money (nor time) to promote it. That’s why, we, players, decided to help.
It would be very kind of you if you could speak about this game around you, that would be very kind to support an independant game.

[

I’ll try to sum up the idea to you :
Astronoid delivers a multiplayer, high-speed galactic shoot-and-race PC game playable on the Internet. Racing (or shooting) other players online in a space ship with quick and fluid mouse-controlled steering and a 3-D front-seat vantage point, the game begins as simple, arcade-like fun and soon unveils a depth as impressive as the top simulation games.

It’s very innovative because it uses P2P which allows 5000 players to be online at the same time, adding everybody’s CPU and bandwitdh creating a sort of “huge computer”, no more problem of “host” for the game.

Before coming to race with us, have a look at a video, you will also find lots of screenshots and information on this gamershell’s Astronoid.net’s page.:

But the best thing to do would be to download it first, it’s free, you can play on 4 planets with 3 different ships. Of course, as usual, if you pay you can have more planets and faster ships. But lots of us only play on the free tracks, and we have fun like this too. But as I’m really addicted, I bought my licence

We’re waiting for you !

Best regards,

Snail (don’t hesitate to tell me if you try the game, I’ll be pleased to come and play online with you and give you tips

This is a fun game everyone,,, you should try it, thx for the info Snail :thumbup:

Thank you for your support Sniperwolf
I was pleased to meet you on tracks yesterday, we had 2 or 3 real good races... and good chating !

Really people reading this forum, try this game, it deserves it, and don't hesitate to speak about it to other peoples... there's still not much people on the server. And this game is really fun when you have enough people to race with which isn't always the case yet... (this smiley I just discovered is great )

Cheers everybody

Reminds me of that game Fatal Inertia that's coming out for PS3. I guess the Astronoid devs can say they did it first, heh.

Saw a trailer, it looks fun, but not my thing I don't think. I like the noise the racers make though. :P

Ooh :Oo: I didn't know about this game, I finded a video I found quite impressive, but as it wasn't real ingame video (like astronoid's ones), I don't know if this game is good or not... but I would really like to try it. Thanks for the info
Is it an online game (I didn't find much info on it...)

Will give this a try when i get back home from vacation

Yea, there are no in-game shots of it yet so it might not look like the trailers at all! But there should be online multiplayer at least, which may or may not be good depending on how good PS3s new online system is going to be.

Cool, thanks for those infos

What is so funny sniperwolf ? :P
Come and have a race with me, I'm on the server right now


I've just discovered I could do this, so here's a little trailer, (only ingame video, no cheats
