please make the game for mac
If you ever decide to port Nitronic Rush to Mac OSX than don’t forget to make it also for Linux.
Test results for the game on Wine (Windows compatibility layer for Unix-like systems):

Thanks for the update, guys! Are you planning to release a full soundtrack? I’d be interested in buying it.
It’ll be out for free *hopefully* before christmas.
Yay! New levels! 😀 😀
This would be cool, but whenever I start the game, I just get a white screen. Help?
Ya I agree it gives me a white screen too… whats up?
calcite is a badass difficult level. there are 2 shortcuts, if you now they you can complete in 2 minutes, if you dont know, 2 hours.

I love this game, I’m not a fan of racing games in general, I’ve only finished one racing game, nfs carbon, usually I play competitive games, rts and moba.
Suggestions.
– Remove the restriction of xbox360controllers only, I had to hack the game to be able to use my controller.
– Commercialization, I don’t care if you commercialize it, I’d gladly pay for it if it has a fair price that I can afford.
– Multiplayer, this would be an awesome competitive game with high re-play-ability, with or without collision.
Again thank you for this amazing game.
I agree with you about the multiplayer, would be awesome to play with my friends.
+1 for multiplayer 😀 Although i’m aware it could be a hell of a challenge to code it.
Please never ever ever stop making levels
If this is a small update, I can’t imagine a big update.
is there coming a rebindable key option?
cause it’s almost impossible to play with an azerty-keyboard.
i hope it’ll be there soon.
I How Figure Out Hardcore Levels!
Next update can you put a new car which is based on Super GT (San Francisco Rush 2049 car)
will you make a multiplayer for split screen i really want to play the game with my brother and race each other at same time not with ghost only,please include it in the next patch people really look for games with split screen multiplayer.
[…] Now including Update #1 (v.2011.12.12.0). Read the details here: http://nitronic-rush.com/2011/12/nitronic-rush-update-1/ […]
please add split screen oflline multiplayer and multiplayer
if u do it will be the best
trust me
This is a very promising game if you continue to develop content for it. If it’s not too much can you allow to bind keys through the game’s setting rather than the config file? Just for ease of use.
Great update nontheless.
I really hope you decide to put in multiplayer as well, this game reminds me of Trackmania Nations Forever, if the multiplayer would be somewhat similar to that + a similar level editor, then i think you seriously would have a game able to compete with Trackmania’s racing game(s)
I play the hardcore modes regularly! I can’t get enough of this game. Wall jump boost wall jump boost aaaaaaaaa! I like what you all did with the camera. It seems to make lining up the car with the walls easier. NITRONIC RUUUSH! Maybe one of these days I will get through hardcore black without crashing… haha!
how do u fiox the white screen
fix*
Great post, I think blog owners should larn a lot from this web blog its rattling user genial . “You don’t have to deserve your mother’s love. You have to deserve your father’s.” by Robert Frost.
I’d love you to make a mac version. That’s an awesome game.
it really does need a linux version please port it
I do accept many of the tips you have launched as part of your write-up. There’re genuinely persuading and can surely function. Even so, the articles are too short for starters. May well you please stretch these individuals somewhat out of next period? Information posting.
Please make a Linux port!!! 😀
Fine way of describing, and nice article to take information
about my presentation subject matter, which i am going to convey in university.
I cant do splitscreen:(
