Game
Sand Speeder is an open-ended action-adventure game taking place on a fictional post-apocalyptic planet in the process of rebuilding society. The player drives around the large, partially procedural map, meeting various anthropomorphic characters and their factions, along with discovering settlements and artefacts from times long gone. The player can buy upgrades to their vehicle or generally customise it visually to their liking, with parts bought or scavenged from parts scattered throughout the map. An additional combat element is included, where players must face off against bandits or other factions, to protect their own, or go alone as a mercenary, for additional financial incentives (and respective reputational damage). Fortunately, other ways of earning money are in the game, such as deliveries, rescues, exploration and selling aforementioned artefacts. Players can befriend characters and bring them with them, with their abilities being able to complement the player’s skill or simply serve as a companion in the wastes. It’s all up to the player to decide what they want. Find out what happened to the place, become a faction leader - it’s all up to them.
as a list:
- Survival action-adventure with role-playing elements
- Expansive vehicle customisation and vehicle maintenance
- Assortment of anthropomorphic characters, interactible
- People and faction relationships, questing, money
What will be judged?
- Appearance
|_ It needs to look the part for the setting. Doesn’t have to be a total rustbucket, but a fair amount of weathering will be valued. Older vehicles will be valued (mostly due to repairability and simplicity reasons), but if you can make a 2024 car work, that’s fine too. - Detailing
|_ Just ‘an car’ need not apply - from auxillary lights to auxillary engines, go wild, tack stuff on, build it as the player fully customised it to their own preference. Paintwork, bodywork, all counts! - Creativity
|_ You don’t have to default to Mad Max. Hell, if you can make a tank work I’ll give it a fair shot, though it’d be pretty darn situational (though some speedrunner would make a video about using it exclusively…). Maybe a complete shitbox will suffice, a land barge with anemic propulsion, maybe even a plane if need be… - Off-road ability
|_ There is unfortunately no getting around it, roads are scarce and those which do exist are in poor condition. The cars will be used off-road a lot.
In-game stats will only be used for flavour text/graphics and classifying the vehicle. Design goes first.
