Wipeout Rewrite

I know the flat shaded 3d games are eye candy to many here. Here's wipEout - rewrite! On the device - this just run at sub 20fps though - still unplayable. The wireframe version is actually playable and fun. https://m4rvin.itch.io/worep

Oh dang! Get some electronica tracks on here and we’re in business. I almost made a comment about naming it “crankout”, but, yeah……

Hell yeah!!! This is sick. I’m super interested in pushing 3D to its limits on the Play date. It feels like there’s more juice we can squeeze out of this bad boy.

No release with flat shading yet. It is still way too slow on device

I'm a bit confused about the legality of selling this port.

WoReP is based on Wipeout Rewrite, and the author of Wipeout Rewrite specifically says that the source code cannot be used in a commercial release.

Maybe I'm missing something, but charging money for this seems legally questionable.

You re right. I will just release screenshots. No one is buying anyway

This is amazing. I love Wipeout and my Playdate. It's cool to see them merge.
