name tags are annoying and ruin the game --> make them smaller OR create an option to toggle them on/off in the menu PLEASE

First of all: Its a great game! I love the graphics and I hate Dickmann :D

However, two things could be improved in my Opinion:

1. The first thing is small but important, since it sort of ruins the whole experience: Sometimes the name tag above other cars is so big, that you can't see where you're driving when your close behind another driver. This is especially frustrating when it happens while driving around corners. Maybe you could consider making the name tags smaller or provide the option to turn them on and off in the menu :)

2. Second thing: I think the game really lacks content. Different game modes, daily and weekly challenges, car customization, different car types, cars taking damage (that can be fixed in the pit stop/ but can also be fatal and end the race), more strong competitors like dickmann with different skill sets, more tracks, long term seasons modes with tables and with limited restart (so far there is no value in becoming first place since the races have no connection to each other whatsoever --> It would be really nice to not always start in last position and earn a pole position by winning former races) etc.

But as I said: Its a decent game and a great foundation for future updates.

And here my question: Are future updates planned and if so in what scope?

Cheers!

Hi,
Thanks for the feedback! Glad to hear you like the game overall! As for the two things you bring up:

1) We'll look into the scaling/positioning of the name tags. Which camera mode are you normally using?

2) Lots of good suggestions here. Thanks! We'll see what we can do in possible future updates to the game. However, please keep in mind that we're a two man team, with other commitments as well, so things might take a while. We'll announce future updates here once things become more concrete.

Hey, thank you for the quick response! First of all, I didn't know you're a two man team. With that in mind my critic may be too harsh...sorry for that! I'm impressed you pull something like that off with such a small team.

So I think you have 4 camera modes right ( I'll just call them ego, very-close, close and top-down for now)? Correct me if I'm wrong. I'm most comfortable with the 3rd camera angle (close), but I think angle 1 and 2 will have the same problem, it might even be worse since they are closer to the other cars. I assume for top-down the name tags are unproblematic, but I didn't try that angle yet.

I would love to see updates, since I really fell in love with your game, but in order to fully enjoy the game I just need that little name tag fix :)

I am also pretty curious what other games you are currently working on! Is there anything you can already share with the community?

First of all, thanks for your nice remarks! We have not yet started any new projects, but we'll make sure to keep you posted about such developments. :-)

As for the actual problem you're experiencing, I'm a little bit puzzled, because this is not an issue which has been brought up by anyone else. We will of course make sure to address it, but before making any changes, I would like to understand the problem in more detail. So, please, if you could e-mail us a couple of screenshots where the problem is clearly visible, it would be most helpful.

Send the images to: support@ravine.se

Thanks in advance!
