Proun trailer (2009, early version)

OUT NOW ON PC! Get it at www.proun-game.com

Proun is a strange racing game in a world of geometric objects and large coloured surfaces. You avoid obstacles by rotating around a cable in order to gain as much speed as possible. There is no up or down; there is only the cable to which you are attached.

Proun is made by Joost van Dongen (www.oogst3d.net) and uses the Ogre 3D engine.

Ow, by the way: if you actually want to try making your own levels, then I'd love to see the results!

The exporter does not have any documentation right now, so if you are having difficulty getting it to work, then please post about it in the Proun Ogre forum topic and I will do my best to help with any issues anyone comes across! :)

[Oogst3D]

Well, right now I plan to first really polish the experience for one track and only start on the other tracks once I am really happy with the entire feel. Especially sound effects are really important. And it's a hobby-project, so it goes rather slow. :)

As for the level editor: it is already there in the download of the current version! It is nothing more than an exporter for 3D Studio MAX scenes, so if you have experience with that program, then you can make your own levels.

I downloaded the test-version and it was just as awesome as it looks in this video! I can barely wait for the full version... By the way, do I detect some inspiration from Unirally for the SNES? That was also an excellent game.

[Oogst3D]

@Lehooooo: Thanks! Some people showed me Unirally when they saw the game, but I didn't even know that one before, so no, Unirally is not an inspiration. The only game-inspiration that I am aware of comes from the ghost mode in Moto Racer, since racing against your own previous races is the most fun part of Proun. For the rest most inspiration comes from artists like Kandinksy, Mondriaan, Schwitters and El Lissitzky. :)

Awesome job! goed gedaan joost! (ja ik ben nederlands) ik vind het simpelweg awesome om zo'n game van een particuliere nederlandse producent te zien. ik heb de game al bij verschillende groote game reviewers gezien en ze vinden m allemaal geweldig, dit gaat nog groot worden, succes!

[guitarrulezz]

this is awesome. this is such a great idea for a game. if you came out with this for the iphone 4 and other idevices, i bet it would be a top seller.

[Cheebahh]

It's like I've waited 22 years to play the game I've been dreaming about, and here you are. Could create some excellent psychedelic experiences with this, count me in!
