- Barely Racing - Devlog 1 - 26 April 2023
Hey everyone, it’s us, Bojan and the crew behind Barely Racing. I know it’s been a long while since I last posted here. You know how it is. Life and “current world events” happen. It seems that over the last few years, each of around 8 billion people in the world had something compromised. Luckily, Barely Racing has been doing well and I have some news to share. We’ve done a fair bit regarding the development in about 2 years since we last posted. The game’s near its completion as of now and we can announce a couple of things. Firstly, we aim to have Barely Racing released well before the end of the year, hopefully sometime in Q3 2023. Secondly, Barely Racing will be ported to Switch and possibly to other platforms in the future. We all feel that it’s a great move, as the game seems to be a good fit for these platforms. It’s hard to beat the feeling of having split-screen races with you…

- New Barely Racing update is live - 28 February 2021
Hello racers. Thanks for being part of this project and helping us make this game much better. We are proud to announce that we have successfully finished big refactor of our game which allows us to go towards implementation of online gameplay. It has been a hard and long work, but we managed to do it. This update will not include any online features, as we are planning to keep that for full game release. “Converting” offline game to online was much harder than we thought and our main goal here was to make sure we don’t break anything regarding offline play. Rest assured online is coming. We tested it, and we managed to play all existing game modes in peer to peer Steam online play, and it worked fine. What we are considering now is how to proceed. Keep it peer to peer, or use dedicated servers. This will be decided in the future. Of course, this refactor didn’t kept us from adding more…
