Ooh, has an installing file and all, so nifty :P Installing as I write, will get back to you soon! (but with less detail yeah :lol:)

Point 1: Installation wizard's spaceship (you know, the one on the corner) is kinda... how do I say this, it lacks smooth corners and lines and all.
Point 2: Bomb zoom = awesome! Can we also have such a thing for the mines please? But only if we approach them obviously, or most of the race would be spent with the zoom thing enabled :D
Point 3: Can we please choose the number of opponents?
Point 4 (and I just thought of this one): A new power-up: invisibility.
Point 5: Meteor showers please! Seeing as it is in the space and all....

good game very addctive only thing that bugs me is compute drivers lap records

[Dżamper]

Few things to improve:
a) Speedometer - I just want to know how fast I drive
b) Voice - sorry to say, but I couldn't imagine worse one. It's not normal voice, neither "robotic", it doesn't sound like voice, but rather like some quiet mumble. I can understand more from Team Fortress 2 Pyro's speech...
c) Laps - three laps are enough in my opinion
d) Easy mode - easy is TOO easy, at my first race ever I've outlapped every driver and one guy even twice...

Despite that, this game pretty good ;)

[popp]

Quite a good one! :clap:
I might just buy it! (at the 1st discount) :whistle:

Have you thought about a multiplayer option? local or overnet?

[Cookie Monster]

Local multiplayer would do as good as internet multiplayer if all players had Hamachi. The only downside I can think of to that is that you'd have to install a 3rd party application... I was reading some threads about making SS multiplayer and I saw that Si was able to set up a local game but it was extremely hard to set up a game over the internet, so if Si could do the local thing again, it could do just as fine as internet multiplayer.

I'm having a blast with the full version! Great job NSG!! I felt the computer voice was good . . . not over-the-top, not pointless. I do like the suggestion of choosing how many opponents for a quick race. A ship editor would be cool as well - as would local multiplayer.

Overall, nice work!

Hahaha! that's what i call wonderful sales management!
I bought it!

[siread]

I will be working on online multiplayer for my next game, so if I can get it working I may be able to include it in future versions of SLR and NSGP...

[popp]

Overall, one of the best games of this year so far. (for the old guys like me)

Si, I have translated SLR's LR_TransFile.csv.

Here it goes:

[Cookie Monster]

Will there be an update with other languages soon? I've already sent you my CSV :)

[Cookie Monster]

Si, eta on Linux?

[siread]

I'm not sure about Linux any more. It's a right pain to get it working.

[Cookie Monster]

Hmm... I guess my Ubuntu migration is half-complete then :/ (scratch that, 25% complete, x64 sucks)

What about letting us choose more laps than 15?

is ubuntu 64 giving you pain? im thinking about it, but several people gave me bad feedback, so im considering keeping my ubuntu at 32..

[Cookie Monster]

Yes it is, can't seem to run apps that I have previously with Wine on Ubuntu x86. It's either Wine or Ubuntu that are giving me trouble, though I suspect it's Ubuntu because of the architechture...

[Pumone]

I love modifying racers' name in: Rossi, Stoner, Pedrosa, Lorenzo ect...:D It becomes SLR GP :lol:
