Our Steam announcements have been quiet, but we have been doing weekly updates, and announcing these on our Discord Channel ( https://discord.gg/giantmargarita ). We're going to be better at posting to our Steam page from here on in!
A big new experimental feature we've added is the ability to link the game to your Twitch channel, and viewers can type commands in the chat window to mess with you in the game (all commands can be found at
http://partycrashersgame.com/twitch ). Only some commands work (car model, size), while many others are still being tested. Let us know what works, what doesn't, and what twitch integration we could add via the forums or Discord!
Since the last Steam announcement, we've added light bikes mode. Now you can leave a trail of mines (or bananas) behind you in this new fun wacky mode!
We've also added trailers (not videos, literal trailers) containing things like boats, shipping containers, etc. You can start with any number of trailers, or run through the Add Trailer pickup to collect more trailers (like Snake!). You can drop trailers on your frenemies using the Drop Trailer pickup.
The Bomb pickup will make you explode within 15 seconds... unless you hit another player, transferring the bomb to them (thanks Supersmo for the idea!)
We have the start of a selection screen which lets players choose their own options even if they aren't player 1. This feature is again experimental, and we're going to be improving this in the coming weeks.
Other modifiers and content:
- Some graphical improvements to the default map
- The AI have gotten smarter at using pickups
- Constant acceleration
- Left only, right only steering (with more to come)
- Starting direction (can start backwards, left, right, forward, anywhere inbetween including random)
- Track clearing
We have also added Discord Rich Presence, so now you'll have a lovely presence on discord when you are playing Party Crashers.
Keep an eye on the Discord and our weekly streams showcasing new content!
