    Speed Elixir was an attempt to get funding. Aimed at investors, not at the players. It seems investors never came.

    Also, the 90s Arcade Racer hurts the most. That video with the additional detail is a must watch, I really would not be surprised to learn Nicalis changed the game so much that they added the drift counter and everything after taking it away from Pelikan13, the thing that's probably the most depressing, is if Nicalis did not get involved, we would actually have the game.

    This was a very interesting watch. Speed Elixir is definitely a strange case. It had a very good base, but i feel like we won't get any information about it in the upcoming years. The whole '90s Super GP situation is very sad, as it looked very promising and it would've been nice to have an arcade racer like that nowadays, but oh well, shitty publisher. Very nice video Jake, 10/10.

    I can vouch for '90s Super GP being playable at Anime Expo in 2019, I played it and it was *really* bad. Outside of the points listed at 6:38, the feel of driving didnt even match or remind me of the old sega classics it was based off of. I even remember asking if the person on the floor some questions and never getting a straight answer.

    speed elixir sounds like a one man team kind of thing, which is understandable why its all so vague and unprofessional , racing games are extremely hard to make, I bet that dude is probably reworking some stuff from the ground up for like the 4th time or is just dealing with burnout ( the bad kind of burnout (no not mw2012))
    I hope we see more of it tho, seems interesting.

    I like how you used outrun music for the second game, yet named every other franchise except outrun when talking inspiration, despite the game literally looking like a rezed up version of Outrun C2C.

    Not sure if anyone remembered this, but back in January 2015, there was a trailer for a street racing game called Street Tuning Evolution and some UA-camrs made videos about it. It sounds interesting, and there was a Indiegogo fundraiser for STE but unfortunately, it failed due to personal reasons (two months after the trailer came out on UA-cam).
    However, the game is now back in development on September 2018 but it's still a W.I.P. project (as of Aug. 12, 2022).

    XF Drive isn't vaporware. It says on the dudes website where you download it that it's a demo he did in his spare time. It literally says it's not his next project.

      Originally I heard about it in discussions about vaporware, and didn't pay much attention to the other details of the game until I finished the video. It's a shame it's only a demo.
