a game doesnt need to have something new to be better than the competition or to be successfull. Doing the same everyone does but WELL can make a lot of difference
im not saying this is the case of this game, but just saying.
I just saw this thread... and i got curious when i saw the pic with the "coches of jimi hendrix"
where are you guys from?

Hello everyone!
Wow!, its been a loong time since last time I posted here on our progress. Almost two months of hard and intense work that had its results as you are able to see. First and foremost, our most important news .we change our games name!
From now on, our game will be named Wincars Racer!!
Reasons why? In fact, many factors have made us take this decision. First, your opinion. Many of you have said that you didnt like the name, and truth is that we werent completely happy with it either. We put it provisionally, then time went on .and well, you know how these things work. Besides, we had noticed that the game was been perceived as a Formula 1 game, when were more into the arcade & karting gameplay adding strategy. Lastly, there were many people who warned us about the risk of facing a legal conflict with Formula 1 trademark, having been previous cases where other titles had been sued for that.
So new name! We still use the word Wincars cause we are already known for that name and will help people find us in google and stuff like that. 
Weve algo taking advantage of this opportunity to launch a new image in our website and make a new promo image taking into account all the feedback given by you.
At last, new gameplay screenshots:
To be continued in the next message cause I'd exceed the maximum images per post limit otherwise!

Here comes the second part of the update!
We also got made the cards for all circuits which will be displayed when choosing the one to play in.
And finally….the cars! We’ve got now more than 100 different models. In next updates, I’ll explain how different they feel when it comes to drive them and all differences between them, today I’m just going to post some pics to let you see our progress in this and hear what you think about how they look so far:
This is a good example of how changing skins will affect to the same car. These following two images belong to the same car ( a Mignon) but they’re set up with two different skins (we’re developing an internet-based game….there must be cats!!!)
This is a detail that nostalgic racers will sure appreciate!
As always, we’d love to hear your opinión on our work, what you like better and that sort of things. You can ask us whatever that you feel like or thow any crazy idea that you’d like to see in the game. Believe it or not, we take them into account for real!
And don’t forget that you can still sign up for future closed-beta acess in our site at www.wincarsracer.com
Greetings from the dev team at DragonJam!

Hey Subyman.
So great to hear that liked the circuit cards!
We're implementing some visuals changes in the gameplay UI, so we hope to bring you something new regarding this....
Anyway, thanks a lot for your sincere feedback, we do really appreciate it!

Saw the video, looks like a cell phone game to be honest. Also, not really fond of the name WinCars, just seems weird. But you're definitely headed in the right direction, keep it up! It's always good to see more indie developers.
Thanks for the feedback!
Yeah the game looked like crap at that early stage.
Here you can see a short clip introducing one of the character's special skill. I know it's too short but it's enough to appreciate the progress:

Hi again
were thrilled to show new Wincars Racer game footage!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z20KXJ2xykI
We really wanted to show some in-movement stuff where you can appreciate how the game is getting better as the development goes on.
This video is part of a blog post to be shared tomorrow where you will be able to know more details about the handling and feel of each of the 4 car series present in the game.
New game images:
This is one of the fake ads than will be placed in certain spots of the circuits whose intention is to give a real-life feel to the games universe. Weve even made some of them featuring the games characters as media stars announcing commercial products like soda and stuff like that .
A close-up shot at the Dawn Of the Racers brand new car skin (all these skin names are still provisional, so wed appreciate some feedback on them and you can even suggest your own ideas to name them!)
The Wild One car skin for Carelle model. Personally, my favorite among all skins weve made so far .
A gameplay screenshot that will help you to get a quick overview of how racing trying to avoid giant rolling stones will be in Isla Aventura
Finally, Bradley using Rocket Rush Special Skill in its higher level, which is basically three huge turbines on full throttle giving your racer an extra boost. Using it wisely in the right moment will allow you to change race positions completely.
Wed really appreciate if you could leave your opinion about this update, both the video and the images. Ideas & suggestions are much welcome!!
If you like the game so far, you can go sign up at our site and youll have future closed-beta access guaranteed so that you will be able to be the first ones to play it and help use with the testing and balancing the game.

Hello everyone!
It’s been a month and a half since last update so today there is a lot of new stuff to show you.
More than 100 new skins appear in the game!
Up to this point, for the development tests, we just used one skin of each of the eleven car models. So it was time to finally introduce the special models.
We are tripping! Here you can see a few real screenshots so you can have an idea of how they look and the current state of the game:
New cover!
At last an image that truly presents the game.
The challenge was to create a cover that conveyed the emotion of the races while presenting the pilots and the cars in an attractive way. Truth is we think we have succeeded in doing this and we are very happy with the result.
We want to say a big thank you all for the feedback that you have given us on the temporary images that we have been using previously, it has helped us a lot when it came to visualizing the final version.
Final web design
We are working on the website’s facelift which has been a development blog up to now, and which will be, from this point on, an integral part of the game.
This way it will become the fundamental tool in order to download the game and also the meeting point to Racers worldwide.
Checking that everything works fine
If we talk about functionalities, as you can see in the picture, these sections have already been added: News, The Game, Gallery and Community, and inside this last one, you’ll find the awaited Forum. Social media have more weight too, adding the Facebook widget in the side bar.
Rear view
As soon as the game started working as we wanted it to work, and the races started being fun, balanced and frantic, we realized that it was time to work on the rear view mode.
Although we still have to assign it to a definite button and work out a few details (remove certain particles and camera effects which don’t make sense for the rear view), the first tests have been a complete success, and have added a lot of value to the gameplay.
Turbo particles
We have improved its particles and truth is it’s amazing. We are very proud of the visual feel that you get when using the Turbo. You can see it in this image:
Introducing the drivers
Same as with the game cover, it has been decided to present the pilots in individual illustrations using their exclusive special ability.
At this time we have started working with Montana Dom!
That’s all, we’re really happy with the idea of sharing our progress here in the boards and listen to opinions, ideas and suggestions directly from you.

Hi Sadly, we haven't made a gameplay video yet. As soon as it's ready I'll post it here too!
Thanks a lot for your commment!
Hello Stuka87!
Yeah, as soon as we fix up some bugs and finish pending improvements we are currently workin on, we'll make that video and share it here!
Steam: No, the game won't be available at Steam, or at least not from the very start. We had to prioritize certain tasks over others, and our bet was to make the launch by ourselves via our own website. We'll consider going to Steam later on.
Thanks a lot for your comment!
Hello everyone....
Time has come!
We're thrilled to announce that tomorrow, Thursday 3rd starting from 13:00 Pacific Time to 15:00 Pacific time (20:00 UTC to 22:00 UTC) Racers from all around the world will measure their skills playing Wincars Racer for the very first time!
If you are interested in taking part of this, here are the instructions to download the game: http://www.wincarsracer.com/content/Wincars-Racer-Instructions-ENG.pdf
Once the test is finished you'll receive a survey via email to share your thoughts on the game so far and give feedback. Of course, you can also post a message here in the Forum!
See you at the races!

So far we only implemented an option to rear cam view and move the cam angle to the sides with the second stick of the controller.
We are not sure if players would like more cam options in a karting title like this, so it's great to hear your opinion on this. We'll consider it!
Sorry mate, if Sonic and Sega All Star Racing Transform does not interest me, I doubt this will.
Great job though.
I only like Forza games.

Thanks a lot for your words thehotsung8701A even though this is not the kind of games you're into!

You're still on time If you are interested in taking part of it, here are the instructions to download the game:
http://www.wincarsracer.com/content/Wincars-Racer-Instructions-ENG.pdf
From now on, you can launch the game already and start your engines racing a few test circuits, setting up the configuration and controllers that best fit you.

Hi ,
I'm not sure if anybody from the forum participated...just in case: Thanks a lot to everyone who took part of the Alpha event!
Want to tell us how was your first Wincars Racer experience through this quick survey?: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1vIb2WaL9era9XcrtcrYVn06H8xhSiA2IDfD_KqqoND8/viewform

TC have you thought about releasing this on smart phones? A game like this might do very well in that market.
Hi Chaosblade02,
Well, the game is mainly focused on synchronized online races, a thing that it's simply impossible to play at this point in smart phones.
Maybe if we'll make a specific version for iOS and Android including some new features, like an asynchronous racing system basedon beating your friend's best times, or racing againts their ghosts, it could be possible.
We'll consider it after we release the game for PC, and maybe we come out with something.
Thanks a lot for your comment!

This sounds like a fun racing game!
When is the release date?
Do you have a Twitter so I can follow it? (I'm also a game dev)
