Created by Tim Beaudet, aka ‘Tyre Bytes LLC’, Eggcelerate! is a time-trial based driving game where the aim is to not lose the egg placed upon your vehicle’s roof. Released in March 2021 for PC players, there’s now a new Winter Eggspansion.
A ghost car is often used in driving games when in a Time Trial scenario, for example, the extensive use in Gran Turismo 7, and alongside the expansion release, such a feature is now available across all modes within Eggcelerate! This new feature also sits alongside online leaderboards and should add a much more competitive edge.
Then there’s the new Winter downloadable content itself, which includes 30 new winter tracks set around the North Pole, 100 hidden snowmen and snowwomen, fresh obstacles and new winter-themed vehicles such as a snowplough, a sleigh, and an ice cream truck.
The vehicle behaviour across the snow and ice environments also reacts differently to when on the more traditional asphalt levels, with a greater emphasis on drifting.
The development of the game was by Beaudet almost single-handedly, with some contributions from a live-stream community and select freelancers. Now the additional levels and leaderboard features will hopefully keep its community engaged.
The Winter Eggspansion is available now via Steam priced at £5.79/$7.99 with 25 per cent off for a limited launch period.
