Some informations are already available, summarized by Xenomorph. It's finished at 98%. There are 5.000 sprites which gives a very good animations of cars and sense of speed. Each car handles differently and drives differently. Batman’s car was shown : the Batmobile… there are tons of stages, you can buy parts or upgrades for each car, and 3 musicians worked on the game: J.A. Martin, Narcisound (who comes from the C64 scene) and Raft, who have created a whole soundtrack with lots of different tracks. Soon there will be a sort of “Kickstarter” to fund the cartridge production, with various tiers/rewards. The game is a Spanish-French co-production, since the cartridge is being designed and manufactured by Toto. It’s a new design, Rhino mentioned the build shown yesterday takes up about 1.8 Mb, but the final version will be between 3.5 and 4 Mb. Therefore, the cartridge will come with around 4 megs of storage to hold all the graphics and a chip that provides 512KB of RAM to the Amstrad CPC, any CPC : old CPC, CPC+ and GX4000 ! A neat detail: if you press a button while plugging the cartridge in, the game won’t load, but you can use that memory expansion on your CPC. There will be a digital download too, and lastly, no AI was used in the game.
