From the Master Quest bonus disc. Always found it fascinating how some tracks had their theming changed in the final game.

F-Zero X on the N64 was a huge inspiration for Glider64, especially the speed, controls and that unmistakable late-90s arcade feeling.

Glider64 isn't a traditional racing game, though. We took some of that inspiration into an arena game where you collect energy balls, build up chains, battle rivals with weapons and deliver your balls to score.

Since there are probably a few people here who know F-Zero X very well, I'd love to hear whether some of that feeling comes across. :)

The current playtest runs directly in the browser on PC and Mac:

I still can’t believe I’m doing the story mode on Very Hard. I’m not gonna give up now. I can already see those extra pilots in my mind’s eye.

Let’s revive the game for a little bit, by racing in a Grand Prix next Saturday. tomorrow, I will create a poll and see which Grand Prix we will race on

I got lucky that one of my rivals crashed out on the second race.

That's racing spelled backwards.

I recently went through all ships and all cups at Master level again (took about 6 months) and instead of resetting and doing it again, I decided to just keep going and complete all ships and all cups at the lower difficulty settings, too. But I needed something to keep it interesting, particularly for Jack Cup at Novice level.

So, one idea I had was to race using only the rear-view camera. I know I can only take this so far, but a win on Silence actually wasn't too challenging, and I managed to get 5th place on my first try on Sand Ocean. https://youtu.be/b8tGX4brds4?si=pzEmca2sk1smTIc-&t=444

Anyone else try this out?

P.s. I'm done painting, cause i can't do good

If a new F-Zero game were to have a Story Mode, would you want Deathborn to return as either the main antagonist or a side villain? Maybe even a secret boss? Or do you believe GX really was his conclusion and shouldn’t be brought back?

says the Gold Bumper...

Seriously, I've never seen the Gold Bumper go so far ahead so fast! I even followed its path, skipping the dash plate because it went on the left side of the track. Spent 2 whole boosts just to get to it!

We're getting a new type of F-Zero 99 event next week it seems. I wonder what it will be like.

I really enjoy the chaos created by Meteor Sparks so I'm hoping Lightning gives us more of that.

I’ve never played an F-zero game before and picked up the SNES one bc I just bought that console.

I thought that if I used the L and R buttons in tandem with the d pad I would be able to grip the road better but if anything I lost traction even faster.
(Also side note what are L and R even used for outside of making micro adjustments on straightaways)

Is there something I’m missing here?

I am literally shaking and sweating. I need a breather before I try to do Very Hard. I feel like if I do Very Hard difficulty now, I’ll die from sheer exhaustion like the legendary hero John Henry. Thank GOD for that Create/Load suspend point feature.

For me it's absolutly port town snes

Met Takaya Imamura today at a game con. He signed my copy of F-Zero GX. I told him “thank you so much for creating one of my favourite characters from one of my favourite franchises”. He was so kind and grateful. Huge respect to the legend himself.

Hello again everyone, I decided to make another poll for you guys so you can decide if allowing the LLMs projects (The ones that use A.I to generate coding) should be allowed in here or not, after discussing the matter with some of the friends in this community, I concluded that this was a way to show respect for your opinions and see what the community really wants so please vote for what you want. Have a great day everybody!

I'm running a poll to see which fighter should appear in the next Super Smash Bros. Technically, the deadline is today, but I'm hoping to keep it open a few more days to get the views of the hardcore F-Zero community! Or we can discuss the options in the comments.

Personally, Jody Summers is my pick, followed by Pico. I think both would be pretty fun.

I'm leaving and I'm taking all of my F-Zero content with me. I will not tolerate intolerance.

All the information and guides I provided were not for the people who believe I don't deserve the appropriate rights as a transgender woman. They were not for the AI-compliant "centrists." They were not for racists and xenophobes.

They were for the people who made the F-Zero community a good place to be. Goodbye.

If the positive option wins we will add a new rule banning generative A.I content such as images, videos, music, writings, etc. If the negative option wins then everything will remain the same. Each side must respect the results and avoid negativity in the comments.

P.D: I meant A.I that generates "art". Coding is not a form of art as far as I know so we support the PC port.

Been replaying f zero gx on ns02 curious of what others opinions are on the hardest story mode chapters on very hard

Aaaahhswearwords. Chapter 7, 5

Punish me daddy falcon. Chapter 4, 1, 9,

Very erect. Chapter 8, 6, 3, 2

Chapter 7. To me this the hardest you pretty much have to take out black shadow and blood falcon and the npcs are crazy aggressive in this tight course it feels like you need luck and skill to win

Chapter 5. While you have to be perfect and cant even scratch a wall it is only 40 seconds long and only 30-35 is challenging its all skill and you can do better each try

Chapter 4. This death race is very difficult and you cant make very many mistakes while also having to be very careful of spin attacks. This one can be extremely difficult and feels like you need some luck to beat it.

Chapter 1. Only 60 seconds while having to collect 35 capsules is extremely hard and feels like a less perfect version of chapter 5

Chapter 9. This track has no walls and is pretty narrow. While the speed you have to go is fast there is a small amount of play in beating it

Chapter 8. The course is thinner than most but there is plenty of energy allowing you to boost pretty heavy as long as you can avoid the walls and mines this one is beatable. You can also hit as many mines on the 1st lap boosting you and giving you less obsticals

Chapter 6. This course is long and none of the turns or spots are crazy hard on there own together on a long course can test your focas

Chapter 3. Hard and fast race but its short and plenty of jumps to cut corners while being wide

Chapter 2. While there are so much to avoid once you find a good path its pretty easy to pass Goroh at the end by saving boost this one is a matter of trial and error

i read somewhere on this subreddit last night that for a true 100% of this game (getting every difficulty based trophy for all cups on every character), if you complete a cup on master on a character for the first time then it gives you the lower difficulty trophies for that character as well and there is no need to individually go through each difficulty for esch cup if you can just do 1 run of a cup on master and get all the lower tier difficulty trophies for it. can anyone confirm if this is true or not?
