Funselektor Unveils New Game: Over the Hill
Renowned indie developer Funselektor, celebrated for its minimalist driving simulations like Absolute Drift and Art of Rally, has just announced its latest venture. Maintaining the signature top-down perspective and simplistic graphics that fans have come to love, the new title, Over the Hill, promises to deliver a transformed driving experience.
A Shift from Racing to Exploration
With Over the Hill, Funselektor shifts gears away from competitive motorsports. This upcoming game focuses on off-road exploration, allowing players to experience the joy of driving in a more relaxed manner.
“After having developed several games about motorsport, we wanted to go off-track by offering players a vast world to lose themselves at a slower pace,”says Funselektor founder Dune Casu in a press release. “In a way, this game is similar to the experience I’ve had journeying across North America in my trusty camper van. There’s something special about being in the wilderness in the middle of nowhere, from the peace, the sounds of nature and less distraction from the civilized world. I hope this game can really drive that feeling home.”
Game Features and Objectives
Over the Hill is set to challenge players with various objectives that encourage them to explore uncharted territories and discover hidden treasures. Players can revel in long drives across rugged landscapes, where the thrill lies in the journey rather than the destination. The game includes:
- Dynamic weather cycles
- Day and night driving experiences
- Realistic terrain challenges
- Muddy trucks after off-road escapades
Cooperative and Solo Gameplay
The game supports up to four players in cooperative mode, enhancing the adventure through teamwork. However, Funselektor emphasizes that solo gameplay is also a fulfilling experience. Whether driving with friends or camping under the stars, players can enjoy the serenity of nature at their own pace.
Currently, Over the Hill is exclusively announced for Steam, although a specific release date has yet to be revealed. Interested players can wishlist the game here.
