We'll get there once I actually finish and start marketing the game! Hahaha

"Aeros Prime: Parallel Slipstream" is the third track of the new Grand Prix that I just released earlier today! It's the dedicated slipstream track of the game, and it's the one track I can confidently say is 99% Aero GPX DNA if you play it right. Very happy with it!

Set it up by hyper sliding into a turn to get your angle, then releasing the currently held trigger and pressing the other strafe trigger shortly after. I recommend practicing it on Two Dimensions (1) to get the hang of it! It makes even the hairpins in the game pretty trivial at high speeds!

Have you messed around with Tight Turning directly out of a hyper slide/releasing your hyper slide in order to cut tight corners? It can really make you able to take some insane turns at crazy speeds!

That's the hope eventually! Trust me, I want to do it as much as people want it! 😅

Awesome run! You drifts through the long turn were super clean, and I love how you used the spin attack to reliably make the turn after the long slipstream section! Nice!!!

Hell yeah. Let me know what you think! 🤘

Only a beginner and absolutely DESTROYING other pilots with spin and slam attacks! You're a natural!

Thank you so much for supporting and playing the game; it means a lot! 🤘

New track just dropped into Aero GPX! I wanted to make a sequel to a previous track in the lineup, and it just so happens that I could make the name kinda funny while I was at it.

Introducing "Two Dimensions 2!" You can play it for 15% off for a limited time on Steam!

My heart belongs in Slant City.

Can't see a single thing in the above pixel soup, unfortunately. You could see a lot better if you played the game on a variety of computer hardware, or even a Steam Deck which Aero GPX is verified for!

visa and mastercard deciding what games are allowed to be sold is an apocalyptic level threat to the games industry. phone calls are the highest impact way to help.

this is an all hands on deck situation. the enemy got results with 1000 phone calls.

I need to find a way of reliably testing aspect ratios other than my own first, but it's on the list to get to eventually!

I've got a bit to go yet before I'm that insane looking (might never get there tbh), but it would be sweet to cosplay Captain Falcon at some point 💪

The game designer of Aero GPX takes a cheeky selfie in an empty gym, with muscles filled with both rage and water. He's not all that big or strong (yet) but he's getting there.

Got one of the most pissed off pumps in recent memory at the gym today. Not feeling all that celebratory; might as well channel that energy into something useful.

More Aero GPX updates are on the way. The rumor is that the entire last Grand Prix might be dropping all at the same time soon 👀

YOU BETTER BE EATING ENOUGH FOOD GIANNI!

(I trust you and you look great, holy shit dude)

You know what that means folks

Like, they literally had special deaths for some bosses put in the game for items acquired out of sequence. Sure, not as broken as SM, but...... The shoe fits, and was intended to fit, actually.
