Downloads

  • Windows: OpenWheels-windows.zip — unzip and run OpenWheels.exe.
  • Android: OpenWheels-release.apk — installs over v0.1.0 (same signing key).

New

  • Ghost racing (local multiplayer). Race friends on the same Wi-Fi on any campaign level,
    your own levels or online levels. Other players appear as tinted, see-through ghosts behind you,
    showing their ragdolls, lost limbs, gore and broken vehicles for all 11 characters. Race HUD,
    finish banner, results with rematch. See docs/RACE.md.
  • Send levels to nearby players. "Send to Nearby" in Your Levels, the editor and the online
    browser; the receiver gets an Accept / Decline prompt and can play right away. A short receive
    code works when automatic discovery is blocked. See docs/NEARBY.md.
  • Full level editor. Every browser-game feature: NPCs, text boxes, signs, food, furniture,
    cannons, chains, paddles, tokens, buildings, the restored characters, the city background,
    polygon and art shapes, triggers with per-target action lists, pin and sliding joints, groups and
    user-built vehicles. New inspector and item palette, full mouse and keyboard editing on PC
    (box select, copy/paste, undo/redo, nudge, zoom, pan), and Edit on online levels to remix
    them. Levels save in the browser format; old editor levels still open.
  • Totaljerkface replays and account. Browse a level's replays and record times, watch replays,
    record / save / upload your own runs and rate replays. Log in with your totaljerkface.com
    account for favorites, level ratings, My Levels / My Replays and publishing your editor levels
    (always confirmed first). Browser replays store only key presses, so they are re-simulated and
    marked approximate; OpenWheels' own replays play back exactly.
  • Quality of Life: 30 / 60 FPS, forced texture quality, separate sound-effect and music
    volume sliders, and a remappable controls page (two keys per action).
  • Your Levels redesigned in the modern online-browser style.

Fixed

  • Restored characters in browser levels with "hide vehicle" now spawn as themselves on foot.
  • Online levels: NPC grinding clips into the mower deck, old (1.8 and earlier) trigger counters,
    the city background with camera zoom, CLICK PARKOUR 3's intro screen.
  • Android 64-bit ARM build (the replay upload's encryption no longer uses OpenSSL's AES).
  • The editor's "+ Add action" button was unreadable.

Notes

  • Account features (login, favorites, rating, uploading, publishing) were developed against a
    local mock of the site's protocol; please report any problem with the real site.
  • Windows Firewall asks for permission the first time Send to Nearby or racing is used.
