• Playtest Updated! - 21 May 2026

  Cranked Update - May 21, 2026 YouTube Video Overview: New Stuff New Trails (with racing) Down, Set, Go — blue Heartwood — blue ROYGBIV — blue Mini World Cup — black Trolley Problem — blue Game Chat Reworked chat — no more huge gaps or bad formatting 256-character limit per message Chat now keeps your scroll position and doesn't jump when a new message comes in Berm Detection & Leaning New setting to turn off berm detection assist. Berm detection angles the bike automatically for berms — turn it off if you want to control leaning manually with the right stick. Berm detection adjusted so it doesn't look as far ahead to detect berms which results in less false negative leaning. In other words, your bike shouldn't automatically tilt on flat ground leading up to a berm now. Leaning is faster and scales with bike types (trail bike leans faster than DH, for example). You should now have more c…

• Steam Playtest Kicking Off Later This Month! - 3 December 2025

  Hey everyone! I just wanted to make a quick announcement that we are planning to launch our first free Steam Playtest later this month! Make sure you sign up for the playtest by hitting the signup button on our store page. We plan to release the playtest to everyone who signs up. We hope to launch it before Christmas. It will consist of four trails on our prototype map with the first version of our new environment art that our artist Maggie has been working hard on. We can't wait to get Cranked into more players' hands so we can gather valuable feedback to help improve the game. This playtest will be a small preview mostly focused on the gameplay physics and environment art. Can't wait to see some new crushers on the leaderboards! Will there be some new top players? Or will our OG Patreon members still take the top spots? Time will tell! See you on the trail, Joe
