Astreos
A downloadable game
Our student project for our 3rd year at IEFM3D. On this project, we were only 2 programmers and 2 artists, so most of the stuff you see in the game I've had a hand in coding it. The concept is that of a sci-fi racing game where each ship has 3 players in it, with a distinct role for each one: pilot, shooter, and technician. The goal is to get to the end of the race while avoiding or blowing up other ships and traps.

The demo doesn't include the menus leading to start a game, so we have a default test menu to start the match real quick. If you just wanna try navigating around the level, just choose the pilot with 1 player, before clicking on host.
If you wanna play online, the game plays in teams of 3, so if you want, say 2 teams, you'll need 6 players. Each player needs to select his role and team (coordinate with your buddies). Once everyone is set, press enable matchmaker, then the host can create internet match, while others can choose to find internet match. If that doesn't work, it might be because servers are full (they really aren't that big).

Really impressive looking game and I like the idea of a multiplayer game like this. I don't think I have seen a co-op racing game apart from maybe Mario Kart. It'd seem to be great fun if you get enough friends to play. However, I must say that the collision detection fell short in some places (I can tell that's not unusual with Unity). The background in the start menu may have an off-putting effect considering it's an online game that you just downloaded for free.

32bit please? :P
