Super Night Riders S1

Really fun driving game. The way you have to constantly weigh up whether it is worth using the bike's boost function to reach a checkpoint makes each second on stages really engrossing

I don’t normally buy early access games, but I really enjoyed the original Super Night Riders. With that said, if you liked the original, you will like this one. It has some very nice QoL upgrades. This is one of those games you get in the zone, and it feels so good!

It is a lovely successor to the old Super Night Riders. Every detail got some love, presentation got better, graphics are upgraded. Gamplay got an upgrade that I initially hated with the boost button. But turns out, reversing this and using the deactivation as a soft brake to make corners enhances the gameplay as it basically feels like either using some break on your bike or full on braking for emergencies. And in riding that's what you usually do: there is the keep straight and feel the edge of grip kind of breaking and then there's the braking that you use while cornering to stabilize and control. So it adds a good dimension to the gameplay. Not sure if the wheelies out of corners when you lean back make a big difference yet, but it's just awesome that you can do that and control it. That just makes you feel awesome. Might even be a bit of a difference as I think leaning forward (like if you pressure the front tire) helps cornering in high speeds. So - although a simple game, it does offer quite some depth that I like. I also still just groove to the music as it's very upbeat, fun and groovy. The new options for clothing, hairstyles (just sad that there is only one helmet so far) and other bikes is much appreciated, the in depth coloring as well. Although the usage of RGB values is a bit clunky with choosing a certain value in a menu. But it lends itself very well to get every possible color. With extra shine, matte or glow. Overall it's one of those games that have a very specific niche and do that very very well while keeping you engaged if that's your kind of thing. The sense of speed is great and addictive.

The Game is plenty hard to go, but in spite of first one, is much easer, and little less nerves to go pass 💁‍♂️

Отличная игра, отличнейшая музыка хотелось бы еще больше локаций костомизации персонажа, а так же что б добавили мастерскую стим, надеюсь автор продолжит развивать игру

Super Fun a nice upgrade from the previous title

[h1]Summary[/h1] An improved followup to miyu.works' enjoyable Hang-On/Super Hang-On inspired arcade racer. [h1]Who's it for?[/h1] Anyone looking for an affordable, simple, classic arcade style game that delivers a decent challenge, and doesn't seek to be more than it is. [h1]Who is it not for?[/h1] If you're looking for something deeper, more simulation focused, something entirely novel, can't enjoy the simple replayable repetition of a classic style arcade racer in and of itself and need more than that, or you know you don't enjoy Hang-On-likes, then this is probably not for you. [h1]PROS:[/h1] [list] [*]Variety of graphical options ensure performant compatibility and visual customization. [*]Multiple modes. [*]Variety of riders and vehicles that feel/handle differently. [*]Functional online leaderboards. [*]Variety of difficulty options. [*]Good sense of challenge/progression through difficulty tiers and modes. [*]More camera angles/perspectives in this iteration. [*]Nice HUD customization options for improved visibility. [/list] [h1]CONS:[/h1] [list] [*]Some HUD scaling settings can lead to cut off menus (restarting the game appears to fix this.) [*]Some races are incredibly challenging, though this could be a pro or a con dependent upon your tastes. [/list] [h1]Review[/h1] As with its predecessor, here we find one of the few totally straightforward Hang-On/Super Hang-On inspired indie games on the market. This entry makes several improvements (see PROS above) over the original that result in an overall more playable and comfortable feeling experience in my opinion. The ability to mess with the settings and get the HUD to display opponent drivers clearly even from far away is a big advantage over the original Super Night Riders for me, and the other graphical settings also allow tailoring the experience to ensure visibility, which was not always the case before. Difficulty is increased this time around. While you can play on easier settings, progressing through the game fully sees you taking on increasing challenge tier levels. Races can feel incredibly tense and exhilarating due to new opponent behaviors as well, which include (at higher difficulties and later races) weaving aggressively from position to position. I really felt I had to be on the ball and feather the accelerator effectively around corners to avoid collisions in these situations. On the whole, this is once again a fun, affordable, highly replayable, and at times controller grippingly intense arcade racing experience that hearkens back to the good old days. I still haven't beaten it fully, and feel genuinely challenged by it. But it feels a lot easier to see, read, and play than its predecessor, especially after some tweaks. If you enjoy this style of game, it's hard to go wrong. It's simple and classic feeling. If you're not someone who enjoys this very straightforward style of old school play, then perhaps look elsewhere obviously.
