Little Racers v1.1 available for download

Little Racers v1.1 is available for download. The changes from the first release are the following:

  • Fixed not-so-rare freeze crash (was due to badly managed memory usage).
  • Added 3 tracks (Pennyville,Valhalla,Snakepit) and modified one of the original ones (Ikena)
  • Added 6 new cars
  • Reduced demo limitations, now the only limitations are time and level number.
  • Added reverse, now cars can go backwards
  • Added more tips and quotes to the loading screen.
  • Improved ingame HUD a bit
  • Added an option to repeat the last race (except for championship mode)
  • Added a button to go back to the last safe point of the track (if you get lost)

Since the Community Games updates aren’t automatic yet, you’ll have to redownload the game for the changes to apply. You can do it from the Xbox Live Marketplace
The V1.2 version, which should include online multiplayer, is being developed right now. Thanks for your support and interest.

25,000 downloads for Little Racers – Update coming soon

Recently, Little Racers’ demo download numbers have reached the astonishing number of 25,000! Since it has been available for about 15 days, that makes an average of almost 2,000 downloads per day!

Also, on another topic, we’ve decided to delay a bit the online multiplayer mode to ensure it works flawlessly, and we’ve focused on finishing the first update, which addresses the freezing bugs some people were experiencing.

This update should be available soon. The full changelist will be posted soon, but the major changes, apart from this fix, are the 3 new maps available, all of them wider and simpler, as almost all of the users asked for them.
