WINDOWS ONLY

Remember:
This is just early access, you can wait a few weeks and get the prologue for free with the Kickstarter campaign.

IF YOU CANCEL YOUR PATREON YOU WILL INSTANTLY LOSE ACCESS TO THE PROLOGUE, ITCH.IO DOES THIS AUTOMATICALLY.

How to download the Prologue:

1. Create an itch.io account if you don't have one already.

2. Click this link to access the download, unpack the .ZIP and launch the .EXE

You should also install and setup the itch.io launcher so you can download updates/fixes in a patch instead of downloading the whole game every time. This is still a W.I.P build, so there will be a lot of patches.

There is a new "#patreon-access" channel in the discord to discuss any issues/bugs you might have with the prologue.

Some notes;

- If you have a wheel or joystick plugged in, it may cause the game to not pick up your controller and/or keyboard. Just unplug the wheel or joystick and it should work fine.

- Sometimes the game will launch in not-full resolution. Worth checking the graphics settings if it looks a bit blurry.

- Photomode pictures save to your windows default 'Pictures' folder. This is usually in your C: drive.

- "Why not give everyone a steam key?" -> It's against Steam's ToS to have paid early access. Full public Prologue release will be on Steam.

Enjoy!

Can it run on MAC?

NightRunnersGame

I'll be checking the comments here and I'll be in the discord chat fixing any bug reports you guys have. If there's any problems with the download or anything like that just @ me and i'll fix it :)

Max - Gnore

Woo! Yeah Baby! That’s what I’ve been waiting for!

NightRunnersGame

For now no, it's windows only. I might make an experimental MAC branch but I can't promise it'll work well

Michael

Aw man, okay. Yes please do make a MAC branch, I beg!

Strange_Guy

Hey, just ran into a bug and couldnt find the channel in Discord. At the first Race right after the toll booth when you enter the tunnel, my car just randomly got launched into the air. It clipped through the roof and the road above and I landed god knows where on some bridge or so haha. Sorry if my description is a lil hard to read. Other then that i absolutely love the game!

Luneth

I love you

Marco K.

Dont know if its allowed do write on discord so i wont. Just a thing i noticed For my taste the car is deccelerating way to quickly wenn lettig of the gas. Feels like the handbrake is on all the time.

If your fuel is low enough, in the pause menu you will have an option to "re-fuel" which you can click. This only appears if your fuel level is low though. Otherwise, you'll get a prompt to refuel your car when exiting/entering a new area. Which also, only happens if your fuel is below a certain level. Hope this helps :)

Dre G Writer

OMFG! I cant believe im actually playing nightrunners!!! Man, the sense of speed in this game is friggin unbelievable. Even the starter car feels like im flying. AAA racing games need to take note. This is how it's done.

Elian Dimitrov

I like the engine break but it would make the game worse on keyboard. I say leave the option to have it ON and make an option where the car decelerates by 10-20% of that original value, like its coasting. I am just dipping my toes in the game but will be around the discord. Congrats on the release and happy holidays

EMannys

Thank you for this amazing Christmas gift jem <3

SLIDEWAYZ

Dunno is anyone cares but I got the game to run on the steam deck pretty well

Leo D.

This...this is good really good

Marco Faria

Sorry but im not on the new channel on discord

D4oud

Im trying to use my xbox controller and its not working, what should i do?

Twisted Oreo

I love the game, one request please let me map my own buttons or swap the clutch with left Bumper and handbrake with A on Xbox controller, and also the ability to tap the handbrake instead of it locking.

nexanoth

ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!! I've been blasting through NSFU on pcsx2 the last four days to get hyped. I can't wait to buy TWO copies (gift for a mate who's not sure if his specs will be good) 1. I played a few drags at I guess the first location (will learn names soon). My first tunnel drag event I restarted but still couldn't figure out which lane to take? Old mate carked his car and still finished but I couldn't find any checkpoint to follow. Seemed it was a guess to go with or against traffic at the start? It could just be I didn't distinguish the arrow properly Can't wait to support this amazing game further. Hype was real but the delivery was *french kiss* absolutely worth the wait (and still is worth the wait).

NightRunnersGame

try unplugging and wheels/pedals/handbrakes/joysticks, that has been a common cause of controllers not working :)

NightRunnersGame

I'm glad you are enjoying it! What's your discord username? I'll add you myself if the bot is being slow

nexanoth

Hey matey I sorted it out myself in time :) Thanks for the response! I’m gonna flog the demo all month now haha

Shang

Shang

I'm not usually the one to donate to projects, but this was something I truly want to make happen. Thank you for your hard work!

Pedro Mota

This Game is amazing, I haven't had this much fun since the underground 2 days! Good sir, you have outdone yourself can't wait for the Full Release!

dan

where is save data located out of curiosity? great job btw 😁

Chandler Anders

Hi Jem, I just wanted to say how much I love even this prologue demo…it brings me back to times I long to get back. I was recently diagnosed with a pretty shitty disease and this game has brought me some comfort. I will be supporting 100% of the way. Would love to add you and game sometime if you’re down too as I feel like we share similar taste…and bro the music…amazing. Hope to see some black balloon tracks in the future.

Rowan Kendall

I can't see the Patreon channel on Discord either (display name Billb0b)

大黑龍

About to play it as we type!🤩

大黑龍

Can’t play it… it says “You don’t have a pledge” when I try to connect the Patreon account to itch.io? “We had some trouble connecting your account”

daniel shay

Thank You So Much for all your hard work and dedication to this project. Its been years since we have had a nostalgic reboot to the underground racing scene thank you.

jslick 219

Does it run on macbook air?

Jeff Jones

I don't know where to report bugs, but paying ETC toll doesn't disappear, just saying :)

大黑龍

I got it to work! Also I have plenty of songs to recommend should I send those in the discord? Also really loving the Prologue so far!

Cristian

This demo is awesome!!!!

Kendrick Allen

Loving the demo. I momentarily have a load screen glitch where it’s just looping and I can’t get out of it. How do I restart so that I can continue to play?

Thefieldman

Is there a way to make the wheel size larger than 13 inches or am I doing something wrong?

Mohammed Aldarwish

Thank you for the early access. I am having an issue with starting the race. After accepting the wage, we are staying on the phone, and race won't start.

Mohammed Aldarwish

Don't worry about it. I was so excited to a point I forgot to download the game launcher. All is good now, and I am sooo in love with the game.

rzarza7777 wutang

Hello everyone, I encountered a problem, yesterday I played the demo all day, the demo was excellent, after restarting the computer the game does not start, just a black screen and that’s it, reinstallation did not help, what should I do?

D4oud

Ive done so multiple times and its still not working :(

Mohammed Aldarwish

The game is amazing I enjoyed every race so far. What I found is that indicators in some races are not enough to guide you through race. There were many races which I ended up going the wrong direction.

Kendrick Allen

Yeah unfortunately it hasn’t worked for me. I still get a loop and stay stuck in the name tag after entering my new name.

Marco K.

Go to customization, select wheels and go to them. It should show up "wheel size" on the bottom of your screen with a button to press. You can customize other parts of your car that way too.

Marco K.

Do you guys have slowdowns too? Not FPS drops more like the world is'nt loading fast enough. Happens only when driving fast. Sometimes even every few seconds. Have a good PC and 150 FPS without drops.

Ernest O

Oh wow. I'm gonna try this asap !

Marco K.

After 10 hours i must say this game is amazing. It's more than a worthy successor of TXR. It is even better in most areas. Only thing i personally miss are the driver and team backstories. But thats way too much work i imagine. Also i hope for some mysterious bosses like the 13 Devils.

Twisted Oreo

What’s the solution to my engine going bad?

Ernest O

Yo ! I played from midnight to 5 am. Amazing game. I have nothing to say. I'm so pleased to have found this game. The potential is huge. The map is beautiful. The degree of customisation is deep. The difficulty is just right, navigation is not easy but after a few race you start to figure out. The atmosphere is amazing. I'm a huge fan of retro games ps1 ps2 specially racing game. Huge fan of TXR and Wangan, this game is simply perfect for those who love these vibes. There is a crazy amount of work. I'm looking forward the full game on steam. I will be happily pay for the game once released. As mentioned earlier, I also miss some background stories about the racer but that's detail. Customisation is deep. Thanks you so so so so much. So long I didn't have an excited video game night like that !

Anthony Montell

everytime i up shift my e brake activates

ffsfsfsf

i know steering wheel support isn’t a priority but just imagine this masterpiece with it 😍

Byso

For anyone wondering I run demo without problems via Crossover on my Mac and using Wine/Proton on my Arch machine via Steam. Awesome stuff can't wait for the full product, I've been following this project for years and this is super amazing that I finally get to play it thank you <3

Javon

how do you reset the demo

Holymane.

I'm so hyped for this game, proud to support!

Richard Kistner

Hopefully a LOT of stuff gets tweaked before the game comes out, the resetting puts me facing the wrong way 60% of the time (resetting happens a lot when the AI slam into my ass going 240ish KPH on a corner :/) the wrong way races are cancer and atleast SK forced you to do them, randomly getting false started eventhough im holding clutch. Please give us a way to turn off ALL the high speed effects, can bearly see shit past 300kph. And making the gps a minimap would be nice, so its not taking up the center of the screen when you pull it up. And please add a hood camera, the bumper cam is kinda low and i cant see past someone if im right on their ass

Grey Heart

I know its totally weeb but is there any chance of the Devil's Z or the AE86 being in the game?

Smokey McTweek

agree with literally everything you stated, one thing I'd add to that statement is the signs for which direction to go, (commonly in the tunnels and S.K.'s races specifically) need to be made much larger or more visible via lighting effects. Only lost a handful of times in the main campaign and 90% were solely via not being able to determine which route to take.

Mohammed Aldarwish

I suffered with this issue as well. Maybe a ground line illuminating the way is excellent way to keep the racers on the track.

2024-01-12 19:26:04 Hi, the game it's just stunning but i have to report some bugs, this can be helpful: when i reset the car it puts me in the wrong way, when you re-fuel your car it happen that you can do it double time and the sound effect of doing it will remain for the rest of the game. Thanks, it would be cool to have infinite money at a certain point or just a game mode for the demo like a sandbox, hope this help.

Dray asd

Please get a new navigation system this shit is fucking aids, aswell as the ai can ram me the fuck off the road but they are like walls when I slam into them (malding)

Adsvader Streetglow

like to let you know this is my new favourite racing game since like NFSU2 and early forza motorsport games. would like to share so issues ive come across. i have no idea how it has happened or what i did before but my sannis 180rs has some strange stretched imagery or reflection issue on the interior and totally ruins the inside of the car

Adsvader Streetglow

another not sure if its a bug or not but i really wanted to buy a second car and i did at first it was a sannis 200rs and i wanted to make it into to a drag setup type of build. having all maxed upgrades and it seems when in around 4th to 5th gear its like it loses speed and doesnt go as fast as the other car i have which much less hp, around 400 less. i also know that overheating wasnt the issue because i checked when driving.

Adsvader Streetglow

Ive been testing so many things and different upgrades such as transmissions, ECU'S and tyres but its strange that my 922hp sannis 180 or 200rs really struggles to reach even 260kmh, when my first sannis 180rs could reach 300+kmh with around 450 to 500hp.

Adsvader Streetglow

also when buying gauges for my second car and installing them, i has ones on dash and on the side pillar, they dont appear on hud. also ive installed interior neons on both cars and they dont appear to be on or work for me

Adsvader Streetglow

also cannot figure it out but the engine light icon above the car in the garage on my first car is yellow but ever since i bought the second car it has been orange from stock to maxed out

Adsvader Streetglow

like the max speed says it can reach 330kmh but it struggles to even get passed 280 to 290kmh

Ancop

some feedback after an 8 hour session (amazing impressions): 1) the visibility on the races are kinda bad, something needs to be done to be improve it, I'm thinking either a GPS upgrade that lets you look always at the minimap (could be located on down left portion of the screen) or making the turns you gotta make more visibile by perhaps putting big signs or reflective signs to warn the player beforehand that a turn is coming. 2) the xbox controller vibration is kinda off, sometime it vibrates when burning wheel, sometimes it doesn't, I think this is more about bug fixing that actual feedback but idk, the rest is gold, most fun i've had with a racing game since MW 2005, nuff said

Preston Brown

so far I've been playing a bit and its super fun however if recommendations are allowed navigation is a little difficult so far that's the only gripe I have super fun look forward to the full release

seTOFU

After 3 hours of gameplay, I would like to share the bugs I found: buying the stripped interior upgrade is heavier then manually removing the interior parts in your garage, the second bug I found is when you try to do a burnout in free roam, and then use the handbrake to stope the wheels from spinning, this will cause the brake and handbrake button to produce the tire skidding sound effect even if the car or wheels are not spinning, it gets fixed the u move the car again. other then that, I am having a blast playing the demo.

Curt Coates

One bug I've noticed, after about an hour of gameplay, when the night runs out of time the game stays stuck in a loading screen. other than that I've enjoyed it so far.

Kendrick Allen

No idea why but something keeping my game from wanting to load me in. Why do I have to have such an issue. Worked fine first night and now I haven’t played for several days now. Im the only one with this exact issue it sucks. I want to play so bad.

Amir J

Any plans to make it playable on mac?

David Garcia

I love how the early access has been better then most released games I’ve played

Marinus

will the prologue be recieving content updates or will it be in the same stage until game release? also is there a planned time for the release of the game?

ducati

I've been sat here for a little over an hour and haven't been able to drive yet. First I was getting a bug that was saying none of the cars were available during prologue. Then I had an infinite loading screen and now it just launches to a black screen! Hope it gets sorted out I am really excited to play.

Marinus

the only cars available in the prologue are the 180sx and the 200sx. as for the other things try reinstalling a clean copy of the game with the itch launcher that was recommended to download

ducati

I understand that, those are my only options but now I can't launch the game its just a black screen. I have installed it fresh through itch launcher but still black screen.

Stoney

Im having the same issue, hope theres a fix for it soon

Stoney

I found you can delete the save files from C:\Users\yourname\AppData\LocalLow\PLANET JEM GAMES\NIGHT-RUNNERS PROLOGUE and you can get the game to restart, but cant get past buying a car

ducati

Perfect, I was looking for the save file location. Unfortunately I am stuck after buying a car too, just a black screen.

Raphaël Da fonseca

Hi my friend struggling to connect is patreon account to itch account can someone help him ?

Jay

anyone have a problem downloading the game? mine starts downloading and then says network issue. this happend to anyone?

nbiga

game softlocks after buying a car

Raphaël Da fonseca

idk if its a bug or not but i just finish the race with akira when he paid you to loose but after that un use the map the phone and can't even go in pause menu srry for my bad english

Adsvader Streetglow

yes. the only cars available are the 180rs and 200rs sannis. but it did keep saying for me that these cars were not available.

Schwammbooo

Hey im getting stuck in the auction i see my money but not the car folders

what

The game was wonderful! I wish we are able to get other cars than the 180sx :(

TheSkylineShow

I can't see the Patreon channel on discord username: TheSkylineShow

Ancop

Yeah me neither, my Discord username is "asapancop" and I cannot change the role in the discord

Ancop

nvm, you need to link up Patreon and Discord

Ancop

gotta link up your Patreon account with your Discord account.

elmayoneso 023

hello, I only suscribed for a month to the game and when I try to connect with itch it says that I´m not suscribed

Simon Thiry

just beat the boss and got to say love the game so far. I do have a couple quality of life suggestions though 1. the game is very gray which overall is fine still looks fantastic however gray traffic cars on gray backgrounds makes them very hard to spot at times especially when going fast around corners. my suggestion would be simply to up the brightness of the traffic car lights that would make them more visible without destroying the aesthetic of the game. 2. as everyone mentioned the gps is not very good however instead of just saying its shit I'm gonna offer a couple solutions that I think would improve it without damaging that 90s new to japan feel - you could go with a system similar to Tokyo Xtreme Racer where as you approach a junction it comes up with signs on the HUD highlighting what is in which direction and to expand you could make it where if you set a location it highlights which way to by making one of the signs brighter (simulating reading the road signs) - you could give us the option of buying a GPS in the shop that highlights routes similar to the way gauges work 3. this is the least important I would like to see a scramble boost feature with how set in the 90s the game is I think it would be a nice addition and nod to a lesser known tuning system used in japan in the 90s. for those that don't know what scramble boost is its a solenoid that forces closed the waste gate creating "unregulated" boost sudden increase in horsepower but very bad for the engine. it was used for desperate measures and sudden overtakes and i feel it would work well in the setting and mechanics of the game especially with the engine wear mechanics those are my suggestions hope you take them into consideration. Keep up the good work and REALLY looking forward to the full release

Ancop

The overboost mechanic was in TXR and it was mad fun, a surge of HP at the cost of MASSIVE heat, it was almost necesary for the endgame bosses to overtake them, very well written, I agree with all your points.

Simon Thiry

TXR is what made me discover scramble boost and after doing some research on it I always found it was a really interesting alternative to nitrous and found it a real shame it hasnt been included in more games

2024-01-12 19:26:04 After i've calmed down i can give accurate genuine criticism. There's a masterpiece in the making here and good thing you let us have a taste early because there's a lot to get excited about and a few flaws with it. First the bad. I'm not sure why you did this but the traffic blends in to the background although that can be fixed by just brightening the tail lights The ai might be either really dumb or literally can't see the player because they kept running into me when ever we were door to door. And with them having infinite density they can easily push you into walls, traffic or just spin you out without any way to fight back. And losing your bet money when the game closes is really bs. If a player is getting their shit pushed in by a ai that's driving super slow and keeps running them off the road they don't need the extra kick while their down. That's a good way to lose a lot of the player base and receive a lot of refund requests. Now the good. The customization MY GOD!!!! Its beautiful. Watching your car grow from a 600000 yen rattlebox into a 1000HP race car is beautiful in it's own right. The sounds overall are sooo good. The engine/exhaust sounds amazing. The soundtrack not what i would usually listen too but very fitting for both racing and fiddling with your car in the workshop just a request to let us add our own music to the in-game radio please. There's a masterpiece in the works and i'm really excited for what comes next just take your time and don't let people bully you into releasing early. I don't want another Cyberpunk release to happen again. Lastly thank you for making this beautiful game i and many others wish well it's continued development.

If a player is getting their shit pushed in by a ai that's driving super slow and keeps running them off the road they don't need the extra kick while their down. That's a good way to lose a lot of the player base and receive a lot of refund requests. Now the good. The customization MY GOD!!!! Its beautiful. Watching your car grow from a 600000 yen rattlebox into a 1000HP race car is beautiful in it's own right. The sounds overall are sooo good. The engine/exhaust sounds amazing. The soundtrack not what i would usually listen too but very fitting for both racing and fiddling with your car in the workshop just a request to let us add our own music to the in-game radio please. There's a masterpiece in the works and i'm really excited for what comes next just take your time and don't let people bully you into releasing early. I don't want another Cyberpunk release to happen again. Lastly thank you for making this beautiful game i and many others wish well it's continued development.
2024-01-06 10:46:01 After i've calmed down i can give accurate genuine criticism. There's a masterpiece in the making here and good thing you let us have a taste early because there's a lot to get excited about and a few flaws with it. First the bad.

Thank you for this. Just a prologue and it's already better than many racing games in this decade. You really know what's missing in racing games for a while now: that is a proper street racing experience. Many games are instead more of glorified festivals instead of what this game has. Customization is beautiful: and I'm glad this game is a simcade. The atmosphere is honestly fitting, but it came at a cost of how traffic blends in well, why not have the red taillights a little brighter for gameplay purposes, as well as more traffic car color and type variety (like buses, SUVs) Looking forward to more PAs, more crews, and more drivers hopefully. Also it would be great if the Ariake portion would just be the Shibaura/Rainbow Bridge portion, should be perfect for a PA for another crew there, and is a perfect opportunity for C1 (Inner Circular Route), but without Yaesu as since this a 90s-2008 period game. I wish this game a good development from here on out, this is really a blessing, because if this fails, the genre is honestly doomed.

William Johansson

ive got fucked by this S.K dude 3 times in a row now because he comes behind me in like 400km/h and flips me to the moon. is that supposed to be like that? feel like a car are not supposed to be able to work like the flip car in fast and furious lmao

Preston Brown

i havnt had too many issues with SK however ive almost fd myself over because im terrible at braking for corners and end up smacking into a truck lol lucky its best of 5 with him and not just 1 race

William Johansson

ive been hit into the air by more competitors then S.K but with him it was even worse. i dont dislike that i was a challenge but when u have a lead and suddenly u are in the air because S.K comes from behind in rocket speed as i brake in to a turn to not crash into the wall, it gets kinda frustrating :)

James Shovak Jr

the furthest i can go is hitting resume career and watching a car spin is there som i can do, i tried reinstaling a few times.

Michael Fong

Its not letting me in with the link

noah schendel

O MY DAYS SO IVE JUST PAID FOR IT TO NOT LET ME PLAY IT PLEASE HEEELLLPPP

YoBluu

Jus use some sort of 7.zip launcher, Then when it downloads just go into you 7.zip software and extract the file, Then take the extracted file and put it on your desktop and go inside open the game. Any questions HMU on discord. yobluu

I found a new bug i went to the tatsumi pa and when i wanted to enter in i use my phone and after that i'm bugged in pause menu until i quit my game

Jack.ej6

somebody else with problems loging in through Itch.io?

Ichy

Seems like itch.io servers are down, so you might have to wait a while

MOUSIK

Can't register in itch.io

Ichy

btw guys, if you already have the game downloaded, just boot it up from file explorer instead no need to sign into itch

ingo wendt

i can not registet too

Iprix0ff

I can't register on itch.io

Big Dingis

the itch servers are down, they will probably be back up soon enough

Marline TUTO

I can't download the game. I paid for the game, i suscribed to everything but i don't have the link to download the game. Can someone could help me?

jojolopz

^ same here :,)

jj

I like the game a lot so far, except for one thing I would like to have changed though. -It isn't too important- but I would like the final race camera shot to be from the perspective of the people on the side instead of it zooming in from them. Like have one of their phone cameras take a picture of the race when it ends instead of it being on the side of the car. I want it looking like a pic from a speed camera Would also give a reason for why they are there too

Brendan Berg

Welp, 6hrs invested last night, now the game is frozen on a loading screen. Uninstalled and reinstalled, same thing 😑

SDN 23

YOU HAVE TO DELETE SAVED GAMESOR JUST MOVE IT OVER

WAP Levator

hey I really like your game you feel the love and dedication that went into it :) but i was wondering if you could add a little cross for the rear view mirror preferably in black I have one around my neck and this would make it feel more like my car ;) I'm sure little things like a dice or tree that you could hang on the rear view mirror improve the feeling of "YOUR" car a lot Thank you very much for your work I really appreciate it and I hope your game becomes a big success

WAP Levator

oh and i forgot could you add an option to disable motion blur? or some settings to reduce the intensity

Jon parker

Is there anyway to reset your game profile

Teka miro

the auction doesnt work for me, it just doesnt show the papers and i cant buy a car, anyone got a fix?

Y A K I N C H A S E R

i love the game its honestly the best out here without even being full released but however the discord community is the worst and moderation is a joke and corrupted. enjoy the game avoid the discord, at the end of the day its not the developers fault for that.

Landy

Impossible to get to the download, i link my Patreon account from itch.io but even with that it's doesn't work...

sebyzz

i hope we get an actual gas station to go to, to refuel

Raphaël Da fonseca

idk if its a bug or not but when my car do a flame i does a strange sound like if you take health in half life hope this info will be helpfull

Alex

I don`t know if I´m the onl one but the enemys are a bit to aggressive when it comes to overtaking. They often don´t brake and ram into you without hesitation and send you flying.

Alex

The game itself is really great, but this is a point that makes me mad because it made me loose a race several times by now.

Raphaël Da fonseca

a little bug i found sometime when you drive and use ur phone you can't the the phone or the dasboard on the screen

Mrk

Yep, NPCs are aggressive on straights, try overtake them in turns

E.E.

I have lost a lot of function in my left hand I would really appreciate an option to reassign which analog stick steers

Jacob

how do i fix my engine

Tuttu The Dog

When it's at its worst condition, the game itself will prompt you to fix the engine, you can do it that time.

EGModding

pls im begging you for a better gps system with more checkpoints in one race to make it clear where i have to drive.

Stephero

I canceled my patreon so I wouldn't forget to cancel it at the end of the month and now I can't even get the prologue :/ I didn't read the message until after I canceled it.

JoJoFlare

yea the arrow can get confusing at times, its be pointing towards the right towards oncoming in some cases which can make me do a double take which I don't have time for at 200kmh, tho despite only having done a few races with the s15 and I'm very impressed with what was achieved with unity engine, the customization is A+/S tier, driving feels FAST, handling is well too when u have to turn slow down a bit to turn.

Cheefa420

it says in bold letters, if you cancel right away you lose all access righ away :'D

Felix Peters

will there be other playable cars in the next updates? not that the 180 isnt awesome but a jzx or some other sedan would be great too

Loris Ivankovic

i try to download and after 100% the game downloaded folder cant open?? what its wrong?

Filipe Martins

Messaged you 3 days ago here on Patreon still no reply. I wanna know why I got banned from the Discord :)

I see that it's Windows only. Will this ever be available for Linux? I'm on a Steam Deck, that's why I ask. I really want to play this game. It reminds me of the NFSU days. This is the game I've been waiting for someone to make since then 🤣

Joseph Schwind

people have been able to get it to work on the steam deck, i would ask around the discord

Kilian Hollerung

how do i get the new updates, do i have to dowload anything and if so, how? Enjoying the game a lot so far btw

anthony hernandez

racing for pinks would be a cool feature.

Vadym Zinets

"You should also install and setup the itch.io launcher so you can download updates/fixes in a patch instead of downloading the whole game every time. This is still a W.I.P build, so there will be a lot of patches."

thatmemeguy

i just installed the game and launching the game it says that it doesnt respond but ignoring it for a bit makes the game work except all i see is the FPS ui and just a black screen, how do i fix this? (i used itch.io launcher)

Kenneth Hay

I also just installed the game but I have no sound. I turned the sound up in the menu and still nothing. Any ideas?

Erick Gonzalez

Tengo un problema con la pagina de itch.io no puedo acceder al juego ya que me pide contraseña y ingreso las que registre y no son, lo otro que sale que necesitan permiso le doy pero no responde ni me dan acceso

tenor

Hello! Do you know why itch.io won't give me permission to link to Patreon?

Masnun

You need to connect your patreon on itch.io or click on the download link, which will ask you to link your patreon.

Lewis Knott

when can i play this on mac os?

Amrit Singh

anyone know how to fix itch? try to run it and it just comes up as a minimized window at the top of my screen and i cant do anything

WAP Levator

Just use wine or Proton, I'm not sure if proton works on mac but wine should

WAP Levator

Hey just use protonGE or some other proton/steamplay feature, to use it 1. extract the game 2. go to steam and under the "games" tab click on "add a non steam game" now go the the nightrunnersprolouge.exe and select it 3. It should appear in your steam libary, right click it go to properties-Compatibility and there you can select your steam play/proton version like in any other game :)

Jake Marez

This dude's a legend right here ✌🏽 thank you man! I was gonna continue to support anyway until the game came out. But now I get to play until then!

abu bakar hassan

how do i add my own music to the game radio if its possible can anyone tell me ?

DannnNFS

For anyone playing on Linux, it is super easy to get the game running. Just use Steam's Proton by running Night Runners through Steam. The only issue is that you need to figure out how to transfer saves to different versions, which I haven't done yet

vali

Can you PLEASE add in a 240z or eventually MAYBE give us a full car list?

WAP Levator

the saves go over automaticly if not you have to look in .steam/debianInstall/steamapps/compdata/2403549046/pfx/driveC/users/steamuser/appdata/locallow/planetJem/NightRunners (i dont know if 2403549046 this is the number on your side but if not it should be one of the longest numbers in that folder because its not a native steam game) and in there should be your save file if the new install has a new location just put the save files in the new directory ;) but It just worked for me when i deleted the old version and put 0.9901 in the folder where the older version was located

Mad Murdoc

Same, the one car sucks now(200sx). would even be happy with a single car addition.

Ej HaShar

love it bro, gps can be confusing, and access to more cars, but im sure you know that already. thanks jem!

vali

when the full game gets released "dude..." I didnt say i expect to get half the game in a demo.

Miguel Gonçalves

I just want a leave a coment sayng, i apreciate your work, sorry, my english is terible, i am from brazil actually, but i decided to write this and pay a month in your patreon for you know, you have a small fan comunity arond the word because of your job.

Simon Pennington

is there a way to change the controls for controller?? cant play because some controls over lap

XHOHO

the newest patch the ai is unbeatable insane rubber band after wipeout you cant win even with a 1000 hp

Anonymous

I agree with you entirely. The Discord Moderator Phat Sliggitty is all about letting the game be broken and buggy.

DunkirkDaddy

Is anyone able to help, the game never goes past the loading screen after clicking continue career?

Anonymous

If you start from the front and enter the deceleration zone, the AI ​​will not intentionally slow down, but will attack from behind and pass the corner at an absurd speed.(9946 play)

Anthony Barnett

the music additions are great, it would be real cool for you to add some more artists like LOMAJI. I think his music very much so suites the vibe of the game

Trash

I agree, breakcore in game is beautiful and I'd to see artists like nedaj or amore in game :)

Ike Toussaint

Some sextrance would pair nicely with the game, maybe having a radio channel switch in the pause menu could facilitate that?

Rogério Lopes

Hi im a rookie on this subject but the downloaded version from patreon is independent from steam?

FLX

there is a mod for it, I saw a video yesterday on youtube

Obamanomicon

I have a problem with my pro controller that I couldn't set up the controlls with it. I can navigate the menu put when I tried changing controlls, the game was waiting for an input, but it didn't register any. Solved it by adding the patreon version into my steam library as an extern game. TLDR pro controller works over steam but not over itch.io launcher
