Neon-Colored Physics Platformer Kinetic Edge Launches on Steam, Road Map Unveiled

If the racing sequences from Tron and Tron Legacy excited you, with their visual beauty and charged action, then UK-based Seacorp Technologies has just the game for you. Seacorp Technologies has launched their incredibly ambitious competitive platformer, Kinetic Edge, and with their launch comes the unveiling of their roadmap, detailing the exciting new content that is ahead for the newly launched game.

The news comes from a press release and launch trailer released by Seacorp Technologies. Kinetic Edge is a competitive platformer with several game modes that challenge players to control different shapes and speeds across the many colorful, neon-soaked levels of the game. Whether by themselves or co-operatively, players are encouraged to get loose and crazy as they take their shape across the brightly-colored digital maze of Kinetic Edge. In a sea of giant, big-budgeted games, Kinetic Edge encourages players to sit back and enjoy the fun of this combination of an arcade racer and platformer.

While this may be the launch of Kinetic Edge, the team at Seacorp are hard at work developing new content for the game, and for the team, the journey has only just begun. Kinetic Edge may be out today, but the journey continues and that’s really exciting,” says founder Richard Seabrook. “With a multiplayer game like this, updates are key, and we’re really looking forward to rolling out more and more modes throughout 2021 to reward the game’s fanbase. I think some of the updates we’ve got coming up – including the ability for players to create their own levels – will be really popular.” 

Among the planned features for Kinetic Edge include puzzle game mode, where players work to solve puzzles, and a co-op mode for friends to play together. Most ambitiously, the team are working hard on a user created mode, allowing players to create and customize their very own tracks and gameplay modes for Kinetic Edge. After creating their course, their creation can be uploaded, shared, and played within the Kinetic Edge community. While this mode has not been given a released date, this mode highlights the ambition the team has for Kinetic Edge. The most important details from this announcement is the fact that all updates and future content will be released entirely for free.

Arcade games can be a tough sell in today’s video game market, especially as a whole, entire adventures can be sold for the price. However, arcade titles are still incredibly necessary in today’s gaming place for their accessibility, innovation, and focus on pure gaming fun, with no interference by the complications of advanced mechanics or stories. More games like Kinetic Edge should be seen as they are sorely missed in the large gaming world. Perhaps, in this new and bold gaming generation, games like Kinetic Edge are only the beginning of a much larger resurgence of arcade titles.

Kinetic Edge includes:
  • Kinetic Race – Race with friends to get the best time or against others online.
  • Kinetic Arena – Knockout other players to make them lose points and stay in the green zone for maximum points gain.
  • Kinetic Survival – Increasingly difficult challenges knocking out players, last to remain wins.
  • Kinetic Golf – A physics crazy golf game you can play with friends.
  • Kinetic Maze – A procedurally generated level that constantly changes. Currently, there are three types of maze varying in size; 10×10 20×20 and 50×50. Maze’s are colour coded and have a distance meter to help out but you will have to navigate it to find the exit. Be sure not to follow the wrong friend because they can lead you to a dead-end!
  • Kinetic Gauntlet Single-Player & Multi-Player – Can you complete the gauntlet? Seven minutes, one life, and no checkpoints. The Gauntlet is a super hard level that will test your abilities to the max within Kinetic Edge.
