Savage Offroad

Going Free to Play
Starting in June (pending Valve approval), Savage Offroad is going free to play! So far, nothing about the game will change. All major updates or DLC released after this time will be free to all who've supported the game so far. I'd like to offer my sincerest thanks to all of you, especially for your valuable feedback. I've learned alot and had a great time too but, I want to make the game available to more players and explore other ways to support its development.
Thanks again,
Vinny

Full Controller Support + Audio Fix
Greetings folks! Just updated the game and it now has Full Controller Support. This means the Unity Launcher is gone and some of the Controls have changed. Check under Options and the new Controls Menu for configuration options and changes.
Also, if you couldn't hear the truck sounds that should be fixed now! Really sorry about that! More updates coming soon!
Thanks!
Vinny

NEW RACE MODE + DAMAGE + MOAR
Greetings!
A Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all and if I don't see you, a Happy New Year! Today's update is a BIG one! I've been listening to player feedback and here are some of the results.

NEW RACE MODE: ELIMINATION
The new Elimination Race is a true to-the-death, winner-takes-all competition! The number of Laps is locked into the number of Racers (that is, 4, 8, 12 or 16 laps!). Every time the truck in first place laps, the truck in last place is targeted for Elimination! The last truck standing takes 100 percent of the purse! Normal eliminations are disabled in Elimination Mode.

DAMAGE!
As if there wasn't enough savagery, now you can enable Truck Damage! That's right, while you race for your life you can receive or inflict damage with your fellow racers. Damage WILL mess around with your vehicle's handling capabilities. You've been warned! You can toggle Damage on the Player Menu.

RACE CUSTOMIZATION
Race Type - Toggle between Normal races or Elimination races. In Elimination Mode, normal Eliminations are disabled and the number of Laps is locked to the number of Racers.
Eliminations - Toggle Eliminations in Normal races.
Damage - Toggle truck damage in Normal or Elimination races.
Turbos - Toggle Turbo usage in Normal or Elimination races.

MISC
Added a Traffic Light to the beginning of races for that extra visual cue.
Added four achievements for Elimination Mode.
Fixed UI mouse click buys multiple turbos.
Fixed UI mouse click on lower paint colors.
Fixed waypoint issue on Crossfire.

And more on the way. Thanks again for your feedback and support,
Vinny

Moar Cheeves Update!
Hey guys!
I just finished adding Moar Cheeves! There are now 32 additional achievements - one for Winning and one for earning Best Lap on each track! Plus two more tracking the completion of those. Enjoy!

Steam Cloud Saves Enabled
The headline says it all. If you want to sync your game saves between machines, now you can.

Save Issues
Hey everybody!
Just a heads up, I've been working on some updates to the game and depending on when you've opened or closed Steam today, you may experience some issues with your save files. Should be all sorted out now. Nothing game-breaking as far as I can tell. If you have any issues, feel free to post them in the discussion forum or shoot me an e-mail at: vinny.tufariello@gmail.com.
Thanks a bunch,
Vinny

LIVE: Streaming on Twitch Today!
Hellooooo.
Just a heads up, I'm going to be streaming on Twitch today starting at about 5:30 p.m. EST. Do you want to see the developer try to be good at his own game? (Spoilers: my brother is already better than me) Come on down to find out, ask questions about the game or just hang out!
Thanks,
Vinny

UPDATE: Saves and Settings
Hey folks!
Got an update here with Save Files implemented. It's a pretty simple system, best I could do for now. When you start a game you set the Active Save File. That's it!

I also put a Clear Settings button on the Options Menu. So now, if you change things in the Configuration Launcher they will persist between plays. If you mess something up in the Launcher and you want to reset it, just click this button.
Thanks!
Vinny

BUG FIX: Add second player working!
Hello!
If you had problems adding a second player, this little update should fix that!
Thanks,
Vinny

No Controller Required!
Hey guys!
FYI keyboard controls work! Just check out Options on the Main Menu. So you CAN actually play without a controller!
Thanks,
Vinny
