Howdy folks! We've been slaving away at Varkian Empire HQ on our best PC patch yet that addresses a tonne of bugs, glitches and other ghosts in the machine that you guys have come across in your Twitch/YouTube streams. Keep the videos coming and we'll keep improving the experience for you! We'll roll out the update shortly once we've done some more testing to make sure it's solid as a rock, but in the meantime if you haven't got your copy yet, now is a great time as you'll save 20% off the regular price. Stay tuned for our update and give us a holler in the Community Hub if you've got feedback

Squeezing 16 people into one room for a few tracks of Obliteracers sounds somewhere between a right lark and sheer hell. It’s a kart racer doing those kart racing things – driving fast around wacky tracks – but with a bit more of a focus on mayhem and carnage and other exciting nouns a destruction derby announcer might yell thrice. What’s neat is that, on top of online multiplayer, it supports 16-player local play with folks use things like laptops and pocket telephones as extra controllers. …

We're thrilled to announce that Obliteracers will be coming to Steam on 23 Februrary 2016! We've been playtesting the game like crazy over the last few weeks, and it's feeling very solid now. You've probably seen some Lets Play preview videos showcasing the game, and we'll make sure there's plenty more of them leading up to the release too. Feel free to ask questions in the Obliteracers Community Hub or in the Obliteracers subreddit. Thanks for your patience and we look forward to seeing you in-game! All the best, Michael and the Obliteracers team

Want to know how Obliteracers supports 16 local players on one screen? We made a new gameplay trailer that reveals all, showcasing all the different ways you can play! (Some technologies not supported on humans.) Check it out on the Obliteracers store page - it's the second video.

Space Dust Racers always felt like a working title to us. It wasn’t particularly descriptive of the core gameplay, and was a little longwinded to say. From our very first public appearance at GDC 2014, we’d had chats about finding a better name, but it was always something to be swept away for a later date… we had more important things to worry about after all, like building the game! But one dark and stormy night, Grigor burned the midnight oil flipping through a thesaurus trying to lock in on what it was that made our combat racing game great. At 3am he cried aloud “EUREKA!”… then profusely
