The above name(or any similar name) is a scam and is not me. Be aware this person is deceiving you. They are creating dozens of accounts so blocking them is not working. I do not do giveaways like this. They are impersonating me with the intent of scamming your info.
Damn dude, they’re doing it to channels with less than 200k subs, this is getting ridiculous. UA-cam cares way too much about you cursing and not enough about scammers ripping off their install base.
I'd love to see this guy do a Space Harrier game with this engine!
Did you hear about the spiritual successor to space harrier that yu suzuki is releasing?
I'd love to see this engine used for a Afterburner game
@@JR-mr1tw Apple Arcade exclusive, from what I read :/
Horizon Chase Turbo, Hotshot Racing, and now Slipstream..it's nice to have new versions of Outrun games even if Sega isn't making any of their own.
@@recline69 hotshot racing was not bad. Not super great, but it was ok, don’t you think?
80s Overdrive is another good one
I don´t think Hotshot Racing is "new version" of Outrun, it´s more like a Ridge Racer. 80´s Overdrive shoul be in that list.
I bought the game last night while my friend was over. I installed it and we played it and I have to say that wow this game is addictive. Thanks for covering Slipstream. I think that I have found my go to racing game.
Just saw this video today definitely made me a customer
I buy every game like this; Horizon Chase is the king getting so much of my time, and it's from another Brazilian developer. I've grabbed Slipstream on both Xbox and Switch to support the genre. It looks awesome!
What a terrific indie racer this is. I'd love to see this guy tackle Sega Rally.
You might want to check out "Over Jump" it's a fanmade project, remaking Sega Rally in Unreal Engine 5
@@Ishin69 Ooh, thanks!
Looks cool. There are several Outrun clones on Steam. Would be cool if someone were to rank them from best to worst.
slipstream is the best outrun clone.
Hey not the outrun clones but close enough! I’ll be ranking all the outrun games worst to beat sooner than later for my sega ranking month! Crazy taxi is next!
80s Overdrive is another good one
@@richardfan7157I like 80's Overdrive, but it's missing that sense of speed.
Outrun, Sonic and... Brazil? The shadow of when you win at 6:17 is from the legend, Ayrton Senna. And the scenary of the stage at 3:40 and 9:48 is based on the historical gold mining city of the 18th century from Minas Gerais state, today called Ouro Preto. The name of this city by the time was Vila Rica, which is indeed the name of the stage in the game. Cool! 🇧🇷
Excellent. I may have to pick this game up. The music in it sounds like stuff you would hear on the NewRetroWave UA-cam channel. They're loaded with music with an 80's synth aesthetic!
Considering that Outrun originally coined the music style, this is intentional.
Outrun is so associated with the retro wave genre that Spotify call their own retro wave playlist “Retro Wave / Outun”.
@@thetechn1que518 Isn't outrun just a subgenre of synthwave?
@@TrollDecker Yeah, named after the Kavinsky album Outrun that was very much inspired by the arcade game.
An incredible game made by a Brazilian passionate about Sega and retrogames, this game needs a port for Dreamcast!!!
Bought right before this video dropped, was between this one and "80s Overdrive" bought this one because it was a Brazilian game. (I am from Brazil) and anyone trying to do any sort of artistic endeavour in this country right now deserves all the compensation they can get. Happy to see it getting some coverage. And you always try to point out both the positives and negatives of any game you cover in a fair way and I am glad you justified my impulse buy. I do disagree partly on the rewind button point. I don't mind those options existing I just always wish that they were disabled when you start the game, and that the player could choose to enable them if he wanted.
Horizon Turbo too was. Cool game.
the art and the soundtrack was absolutely amazingly beautiful, I love this game.
Just picked up Slipstream because of your review. Great video!
I like the long no pop in draw distance and smooth 60 fps of the sprite super scaling. I love seeing classic sprite animated style games made for modern hardware.
Great vid! Please keep covering these indie retro games. You're introducing me to a lot of great content.
If you want a more crazy arcade racer then try Cruis n Blast or Rise Race the Future, both worth a race or two. Now if only the developers would try their take on Road Rash. Great review as always.
The closest modern experience you can get from outrun. Thanks a lot!
The shot of the guy holding the trophy is without a doubt a crop of F1 driver Ayrton Senna holding up the Sonic trophy from the 1993 European Grand Prix.
Man, you got me wanting to try out this hidden gem! Thanks for the review, SLX!
I really love this game. It's my favorite racing games ever. I was so glad when I found out that the game dev is from the same State as l am. Minas Gerais - Brazil. 🇧🇷🔺
Great review! It looks and sounds awesome especially for a one person team. I will say that when you talked about how people in their 40's would appreciate the music; so would people in their 30's.
@@superbroly64DS I was going to say people in their 20's as well, but I was overthinking it. Yeah, people in their 20's and 30's love music from the 80's.
SegaLord, love the high volume output lately! Another great episode!
Been having a great time with this game. My only minor complaint is some of the tracks don’t really give me driving vibes. A bit too omninous like hotline Miami. Still, overall love it as I grew up in the 80s.
Yeah was looking around if there was anything like outrun tonight and came across this game, I’d never heard of it. It’s super fun. Especially with the CRT+NTSC filter and the VHS effect. Even more fun playing with my son couch co-op style.
I'm so glad this finally came to switch. i'd been playing this for so long on PC watching as it changed with each update, and hoping others who really enjoyed Outrun 2 (because of the drifting and drafting (called slipstreaming here)) but want the Outrun 1 aesthetic would get to try it. I ended up buying this also on the switch because it's such a cool game.
I bought this on XBOX and Switch.
Looks great, I'll definitely be picking up a copy after watching this review. Nice work. 👍
Awesome vid, I wasnt aware of this game and now definitely have to pick this up. Looks like an excellent homage to Outrun.
This game started vaporwave AF, but the VCR tracking effects on the time rewind feature are just... *chef's kiss*
Wow I looked on steam and turns out I have it. Definitely gonna give it a try.
Gosh, I adore the music and visuals on display here
Awesome review Sega Lord. I was contemplating picking this up on PlayStation and you’ve made the decision much easier. Can’t wait!
Bro got hardcore “ we do it right the first time or we don’t deserve it” thing is I’m 55 and my reflexes aren’t what they used to be. So I’m thankful for rewind. =p
Slipstreaming is a term I have heard used for when you use the cars momentum in front of you to gain an extra boost. But the term used by actual racers is "Drafting".
Either way ... the game looks cool. I just saw an Outrun inspired indie title on the XBox called "Overdrive 80s racer" or something like that. I was thinking about picking it up because the reviews from gamers was 4/5 stars on the XBox.
Thanks for highlighting this. Had never heard of it. Picked it up for Xbox
Siip stream is also the name of the Last súper scaler arcade game From sega. Released only in Brazil in '95.
My favorite part is that the title car is clearly based on the Nissan 300ZX Z32 model, which is my favorite car. I also see a 3000GT and an NSX.
Nice review, SLX.
As someone who sucks at racing games in general i actually love the inclusion of a rewind feature, its not hurting anyone who doesnt want to use it. As you say here its good accesability.
I know what you mean as I also suck at driving games but it's there and will be very hard to resist using.
The need to improve and actually learn is taken away.
Probably included under the advice of the publisher.
@@lordsofkobol7385 I dunno, I use the feature in emulators all the time. But at that same token I have played all the souls like and have over 300 hours in eldin ring, not adverse to challenge. I don't mind the feature being there, as long as it's optional.
@@666slateran666 What little unreasonable butthurt it garners could probably be avoided with an on/off switch in the options.
This looks awesome! I’ll have to get this one for sure.
Great review as always!
So great to see someone doing a proper full modern super scalar. It's a retro feel that hasn't been redone much, even though these were some of the most amazing looking games of the era
Great to see a review of a modern retro-style game. Enjoyed your insight. More, please!
Reminds me of Blood Dragon...yes...it has been 10 years. 😫
Oh wow I love the music! It sounds a lot like Drab Majesty. Check him out if you haven't heard.
Clicked on this video, saw this as the top comment and you mentioning Drab Majesty alone sold me on it. Watching the video only now haha.
I like that the rivals are all 80's movie characters and celebs. So far I spotted Gordon Gecko, Bob Ross, and Doc Brown.
Awesome review for sure! I definitely would have missed this otherwise thanks! Slipstream is really good and I'm definitely enjoying it, and at only $9.99!
Another game that's dropping soon on July 26 that I think you should definitely check out is 80's Overdrive! It looks just as good as Slipstream and heck it might just look even better! Of course we won't know which one is until this comes out. But it has a light car customization using coins you unlock to upgrade the engine or steering etc. It also has a track editor which is pretty interesting to say the least. It's also only $9.99, hopefully it turns out just as good Slipstream if not even better!
This game has a retro look with modern day mechanics built in.
games like this need a physical release honestly
This just makes me want a port of Outrunners even more.
You should do more retro review mate found your knowledge out strips most so called reviewers who only see graphics you give a better in depth overview keep up the great work UK loves it 😀
Not quite chip-tunes but reminiscent of the 16bit music era, graphics are like a mix of 16bit to early 32bit.
Outrun 2 its probably my favorite racing game ever, so i need to try this game.
The guy holding the Sonic-shaped trophie, kinda looks like Ayrton Senna who was featured in Super Monaco GP 2.
Initially the game didn't have the rewind button, but the other drivers used a rubber banding system to keep them around you. The 1.2 patch added the rewind but also got rid of the rubberbanding and made all the other drivers have the same rules as the player, which meant that if you messed up an early turn or something, you were pretty much boned, even a late one might see half the other races pass you by. The 1.21 patch would tune the difficulty so other races were quite so brutal and smoothed out the turns so you could take them at high speed a bit easier.
I doubt rubberbanding was ever fully removed. Scaled back maybe.
@@PowderedVoltage It was actually fully removed in 1.2 but that ended up creating a bunch of difficulty issues and the dev added it back in 1.3 but tuned it more so it felt more natural (ai driving a bit better behind and a bit worse ahead) rather then like in most games where the ai will almost stop if its too far ahead.
You the man, Sega Lord X
I'm not even 40 and I thought the music and gameplay was pretty cool! Awesome Video SLX!
I hope that SEGA has realized that they can port all the Super Scaler games to Switch and that they will be purchased.
06:17 The guy holding the cup is a silhouette of Ayrton Senna, the legendary brazilian driver.

The above name is a scam and is not me. Be aware this person is deceiving you.
Now all we need is a Afterburner clone
It's gorgeous 😢
Oh yeah...this is coming home ASAP.
Outrun 2 was the peak of the format. There is no better option.
Because of "Sonic Origins" coming out this month, do you suppose you'll be able to do a review for the indie game title "Freedom Planet" soon? It is a 16-bit style action platformer that is heavily inspired by the old school Sonic games, and it was even planned to be a Sonic fan game before it was changed to become something new and original. If you haven't played it yet, I highly recommend checking it out however you can, since it is available on the Nintendo Switch as well as the PlayStation 4. :)
Sega has just unveiled the Mega Drive 2 mini with CD player add on!
I love this game. (I suck so I use the rewind lol) Thx for the review Sega Lord X!!!
The graphics are great, the gameplay looks spot on but, that music, oh that music. From a gamer who is almost out of his 40s, this music puts me in the mood to play more than anything at all. For a moment there, I was 16 again, or 13, either is fine.
100% agree with your wording about rewind being a cheap fix. That's exactly what it is!
Outrunners don't need second chances! And you were hinting to Outrunners before that!
I'm really digging the game for thr Z32 aka the fairlylady Z aka 300zx. Talk about a sweet nostalgic ride thru these retro courses.
This might sound weird, but I want a Sonic game like OutRun.
Seriously, just imagine him looking at the screen, giving you the "clock watch" and then it says "GO!" and you have old school sprite designs in running fashion and have to dodge obstacles. Not like Sonic Runners, like OutRun.
So basically Sonic R with Super Scaler graphics (and hopefully better gameplay)? I think it's a great idea.
Had no idea this game existed and I’ve been looking for something like this since Outrun 2006
It is also 10 usd on steam, but steam says it came out in 2018 there. Must be a new port to the switch\consoles.
woah I thought "Neon Delivery" was "Shattered Dreams" by Johnny Hates Jazz for a moment there
@Sega Lord X Sega just announced they're working on Sega Genesis Mini 2 in Japan and including Sega CD games as well.
Wow-a stunning homage to a bygone era. While I’m a little more in favor or something like Horizon Chase Turbo, this is an incredible sprite scaler for the modern age. Great find!
Excellent review
Hope the dev creates more racing games
This game literally looks like the car is sliding as oppose to rolling. Slipslide would have been more Appropriate lol. Looks alright.
Love the music for $10 I’m totally buying this
Horizon Chase Turbo is another retro but it uses polygonal 3D to mimic look of 2D sprite scaling and was inspired by the likes of OutRun and Top Gear on the SNES right down to getting Barry Leitch to do the music. Its Senna Forever DLC was likely inspired by Super Monaco GP too.
Horizon Chase is good but to me its very cheap. Its very hard to pass the other cars because they dont give you a lot of room. I couldnt complete the game because it got too cheap on the later stages and theres no option to change the difficulty.
Good find. Deffo picking this up.
This really seems like a great arcade racing game. I am going to get this from Steam. Thank you for recommending this game to all of us :)
Oh sweet I'm headed to the store now
Great review. Gonna grab it
This looks like a lot of fun. I add it to my wishlist ^^
I'm shocked it took this long for somebody to revive super scalers. I'll have to pick it up.
Awesome review man!
This game is true gem of our time! 😍
I hope it gets a physical release. I have been enjoying this in my Xbox for a min, but I would buy a physical release for the switch and keep it nice and sealed for the collection
If only the car didn't go into a sideways drift constantly with every basic turn I would really love this game. That's my only complaint.
This was a game I backed on kickstarter, but I wasn't aware that it wasn't that long ago when the game had finished. I guess the version that was available on GOG and Steam for a while, might have been still in early access. Regardless, I'm glad it turn out alright and wasn't left abandoned or silent like some other retro style racing games I've backed in the past.
I may not be in my 40s just yet, but I can still appreciate the classics of the 1980s for what they are.
I did a review of this game for Pure Nintendo. It's an enjoyable little racer, but does have some big problems. One of the bigger ones for myself was that the AI on the harder difficulties was very sporadic. Sometimes I'd just blow past everyone and they never caught up. Other times they'd blow past me, and even at my max speed they'd still be gaining distance. The slipstream mechanic itself is really well done though, you can gain speed forever until you stop slipstreaming allowing you to reach some crazy high speeds
The core game mode, Grand Tour, is the main mode of this game because of its reflection of the Outrun model. The draw is the joy of driving, with the rivals just there as simple benchmarks to overcome. The additional racing modes are all secondary, and while I enjoyed them, they were nowhere near as appealing as Grand Tour. That relegates any AI issues to the backburner for me. The MP is the real competitive racing mode, anyway. The core Outrun experience is there and done exceptionally well. And really, that's all that matters in single player.
It's pretty good especially for the price!
It has that nice pick up and play quality. My complaints are similiar and found the music to be a bit too kitschy but otherwise it's decent.
I hope Sega takes notice and finally releases an official arcade port of Outrunners though and maybe add a new new contemporary features besides the dumb rewind button. C'mon Sega you already have an amazing game with lots of potential. My apologies for mentioning Outrunners again I just really really want an official arcade port!
Awesome! I have a question: are there any modern games directly inspired by Daytona USA and Sega Rally that may be worth picking up? So far, I’m debating just getting the old Sega PC versions of both games on EBay, but I’d like to first see if there are other options available where I can scratch that itch without having to buy a new gaming console (I have a Switch, PS4 and PC at the moment). Given that the PC versions of both games were pretty “meh.”
I wish these retro style games would support steering wheels. People keep saying arcade racers don't work with wheels, but how does that make any sense? Steering wheels (AND force feedback) originated in the arcades!
This does look super appealing, I'm gonna have to snag it for my new Steam deck and play it on the toilet!
No doubt the producer have spent countless hours playing Outrun 35 years ago, IF he was born at that time that is, LOL Great video SLX, thanks for showing something like this that otherwise wouldn't have gotten my attention. 👍
This looks awesome!
I'm pretty sure the shadow image of the guy with the trophy is Ayrton Senna with the Sonic trophy from Japanese GP.

The above name is a scam and is not me. Be aware this person is deceiving you.
Not sure how I didn't notice this one before; scrolling is nice and fluid; it's mostly Out Run but the roads in motion have a hint of a Ridge Racer look as well. Very agreed about the rapidly repeating scrolling assets; that aspect gives it a cookie-cutter presentation at times but overall this seems to be a good value purchase and playability and music are both satisfactory. Now if Nicalis could just revive and finish 90's Super GP someday in the not too distant future. I'm also interested in Redout 2 but I will have to build a beefed-up gaming PC to accommodate that as mine is now eight years old.
I bought this because it kind of reminded me of outrun a bit but have still yet to play it.
He can make a Duke nukem esque game.
Not really.
9:58 does this include the diamond cup tracks as well?
The soundtrack sounds great. Like Huntdown and 80s Overdrive 😊😊😊
