Will the game be released on steam?

Post by Powdered »

Hello everyone, I would like to introduce myself as a (cyber) motocross racer!
I really enjoy this game and would go as far as saying that this is my favorite MX game but it is my least played because I don't see a future in this game.

I would like to ATLEAST bring up the though of this game being released on steam. I believe that this would revive the game again and bring in more players. Making the game more accessible is just a big + and I know this dev is talented enough to do this. I do see that the dev is still active and this led to me seeing more potential. Steam would make the game more accessible and it would be something new to a lot of users.

The original website where you purchase the game looks shady and can definitely make someone not want to purchase the game. One big factor is the price... I think the price should be lowered or go on sale. I'd prefer for it to go on sale because this dev deserves the money in my opinion, but then again $42 isn't a friendly price for such a small game.

I tried explaining to the best of my capabilities and I'm not very active on here so if you need to contact me you can DM on discord, my username is: powderedup

I probably will at some point. BMT Micro was great when Barb was the customer support person but now that she retired there's nothing special about them.

I always thought the reason for it not being on steam for this long was something to do with you getting a better cut of the sales. Steam is known for having a higher take percentage compared to other other distributors. On another note, it'd be funny to see some steam achievements :lol:

Well I will be looking forward to this! I have been trying to get a family member on the game but he hasn't gotten it since it isn't on steam.

Steam does take a much bigger cut. But it does seem like there are plenty of people who are afraid to buy from anywhere else these days.
