Multiplayer and Custom Tournaments

[Nakkikameli]

I think many people would love to play Super Laser Racer in multiplayer game with their friends offline (or online). Is there possible in future have some kind of multiplayer game mode?

Other thing i have been thinking is this : It would be nice to make and play own custom tournaments from your own tracks (editor tracks).

I can't say are these possible to make, but i guess i can still ask.

If you go to C:/Program Files/Super Laser Racer/Settings and edit the Tournaments.ini accordingly, you can create tournaments.

I'm currently looking into multiplayer options.

Is there any progress with multiplayer mode?

He's stated before that now that MP has been released for NSGP, he'll see how that goes, and if there's enough interest, he'll think about putting it in SLR.

I think all SLR fans are looking forward to the day that happens. I am sorry to say I haven't played the game in over a week, just because... not much left to do. :(

Actually I think it would be much more fun going a couple laps with real human players... I am also looking forward to multiplayer!

Posting to express interest in SLR multiplayer, or any kind of update at all. I think this game has a lot of potential with the level editor and overall balance, it is a fun game for it's simplicity. I bought on Steam for $5 and feel it was well-spent. My only wish is more tracks, perhaps more racers, and multiplayer.

I've created several tracks and custom tourneys and hope an update is due. A suggestion I would like to see implemented would be view zoom in edit mode. I encourage the author to reach out to the Steam forum where there has been some activity and try to create some kind of community directed to this forum.

I'm a bit disappointed seeing most posts here are a few months old, hopefully more people will post their tracks and keep this game alive; considering the many positive reviews I've read, I'm a bit surprised there aren't hundreds of custom tracks floating around by now. Is there still hope for a MP update?

Hi, first post here! Love the game!

I just want to know if there's a final word on the multiplayer thing? Will there be an update with this option or even a sequel?

Sure! multiplayer is a necessary update! Developpers must do it! Even if we have to pay! Do it!

Online isn't a big essential in games I don't think, although it is a nice feature. Online leaderboards for lap times and such might be interesting though, I've always thought this game needed some more depth to what is already here, like more track tiles in the editor, a smarter AI (I find it hard to stop them committing suicide when making a custom track) and maybe even a sort of level or advancement mechanic to the single player other than unlocking more ships (maybe even custom ships!?). Although allot of this would make it a completely different game, it will still probably have us playing longer than an online mode.

Perhaps the most one could do is Upload their ghost onto the servers, so it'd be like racing other peoples ghosts.
More track parts would be nice, But seeing how advanced the editor already is, It'd be mostly User-Submitted, no?
Custom Ships... That would also involve modding, But with a Ships.ini file, I can see that happening.
Just think of all the madcap (and hopefully supervised) concoctions one could find on an online in-game "Community"!

Suggestion:
Tournament with a team mate will be nice like a tournament in coop.

I like almost all of the suggestions made here, this game has so much room for improvement it's not even funny...

At least online leaderboards for custom tracks and a time trial mode should be added.

If no multiplayer options are added, then adding new difficulty modes would be nice cuz I don't know about you guys but I find it too easy to finish first place even on Hard mode.
