Why have you removed everything that you have made from Steam...?

Because they're dishonest developers. This doesn't surprise me one bit.

Kinda surprised there's an announcement about it but I'm not surprised in the least. Oh well, so much potential down the drain.

I'm sorry that you are disappointed, we are a small indy developer, we just like racing games and tried to do something, but we didn't make it. We didn't get any money out of Racecraft my friend. Before labeling people as dishonest you should know more about things.

I do know more about things. I've been on this journey since you were named Vae Victus and abandoned Victory: The Age of Racing. I've watched as you renamed your company to distance from the negative reviews and make a brand-new game. I watched you blame your players for not having a good enough PC to run Racecraft when you also expected everyone to move to Racecraft. I watched you ignore your players' feedback when they cried out for basic necessities. Today, Racecraft, a PC game on Steam, still has no mouse support and still requires the use of a keyboard.

There are so many great indie companies making incredible indie successes, even today, because they're dedicated to their craft and their players. One single person can create a successful game all on their own. This was true even in 2016 when Racecraft launched. Yet, for some reason, after all these years, Sandbox Games continues to pretend that this was, somehow, just how it happened. Look at Racecraft's Steam page. The reviews are Mostly Negative. That's not by chance.

I don't think you're horrible people. I just think you badly underestimated what it takes to make a decent video game and repeatedly failed to listen to your paying customers. I hope everyone at Sandbox, Vae Victus, or whatever can move on into other gaming companies or completely different fields, but I also hope this is the end of the story for these two games. It's about time everyone, including all of us here, moved on.

Will the basic game still work locally for single player, as with Victory: The Age of Racing? I hate it when things gets switched off totally.

No one deserves to die!! I know the developers part in person and I can assure you that they are fine and honest people!!! ....and I am frustiated myself that the game will be shut down by the end of September, but they didn't listened to me when I suggested to release the the new version Racecraft 1.0 and patch it from time to time.

I'm glad finally.
this happens when you take advantage of people to test your games for free like victory the age of racing then you close everything and disappear. Making cabinet version of the game and never said thank you to anyone of the people who tested it for you. I hope you never develop another game you don't deserver any credit. vergognatevi

Sorry to see this game come to an end.

Avreste potuto fare tanto, soprattutto con Victory che, a mio dire, era tutto quello che avevo sempre sognato in un gioco di corse online. Peccato.

This is why always online games suck
