Demo Update & Community PSA

[Steve]

Dear Players,

We are overwhelmed by the incredible feedback and support from the community following the release of 'Old School Rally''s demo on Steam Next Fest!

Rest assured that all your voices are heard, and we are dedicated to improving the game based on the community's valuable insights, starting with this demo update:

——————————————
Demo patch notes v0.1.30:
Fixed the downshifting gear control;
Temporarily disabled the controller vibration function that was causing frame drops for some users;
Improved braking;
Fixed intro videos for Steam Deck compatibility;

*We also noticed the current gear 5/6 "meta" in the time trial but decided not to fix it this time around in order to maintain the consistency of the time trial contest, so enjoy it while you can : )

In the meantime, we are working on further improvements on handling/physics and popular feature requests (such as Ghost, Day/Night cycle, etc.). We promise we'll work hard to meet your expectations for 'Old School Rally', so please stay tuned!


Until next time,

Dev & Publishing Team

Just tested the update and the braking feels a lot better, it's a step in the right direction. Thanks for updating the demo

Great to know braking is improved. I would like also ask about to modify some segments terrain that seems overly flat for long parts. To add some "unevenness" in the terrain and avoid overly long flat segments

A bit better, but in general the physics need a great improbe..

Just tested it and definitely brakes feel better now, much less delayed. Though I still feel like the "uneven" braking curve is still there.

Hopefully that can be further tweaked, but so far it's a great improvement.

Other besides physics, imo going off the track could use a revision too. You snap way too hard if you touch grass, feels strange.

Great to see the demo getting updates based on the feedback.

Braking feels a lot better now. Looking forward to the full release!
