[Ataverti]

After 11 years of making games w/ Ataverti (7 years as a legal company) I (we) finally released full international 3D game called "Led It Rain" on 12.12.12. The roadmap is to add content to it, juice it and make it available in distribution platforms like Desura and Steam. We got Greenlighted on September and are now looking for Early Acces release before summer 2016.

My name is Petri Fridell, product lead of and indie game developer called Ataverti. Led me present to you the game called "Led It Rain"! A first person shooter racer where you drive motorcycles while shooting zombies and monsters. The tagline is "Motorcycles, guns, monsters and bikinibabes".

Holy shit this looks/sounds amazing. Sounds hard too, what's the difficulty like?

[Alec S.]

This appeals to me.

(Quick and small point of criticism, the player's hand looks too shiny.)

[Ataverti]

Poe : It was rather difficult to find a balance between driving and shooting but the initial tests have been very promising. Everybody seems to be loving the game. 

Alec S. : Thanks for mentioning yes it actually does I am fine tuning small details now..

[Ataverti]

I decided to call zombies in this game xombies 

[Ataverti]

I or should I say "we" aim to release first version of the game 12.12.12. If we do it is celebration time

This is how our indie office looks or rather my corner of it. We share offices with Liquid Flower and Blight Games in Finland.

Second level theme - it is going to be set in the graveyard. Something to do with Finnish melancholy?

[impulse9]

Wonderful idea and it looks stunning!

Just one technical thing that I can't wrap my head around ... shouldn't the player hold the gun in his other hand? How does he apply throttle? Or is it on cruise constantly?

[Ataverti]

Impulse9: Very good point and something I did not even consider when starting to develop the game. It just comes from that the player in First person shooters always has gun on right side and it would look wierd otherwise. I am going to add some cables to the left hand side of the motorcycle thought to make it appear that he has modified the cycle to be drived with only one hand...

  Teaser video. More soon.

Took me a second to realize that was a shark on the front of the motorcycle.

[DrunkDevs]

Gatling guns, and motorcycle mounted sharks. Just a typical drive to work in Finland. Seriously though, looks great.

[JimmyRobo]

The concept sounds like it'd be hard to do it real justice - but you're pulling it off!

Sounds like a good idea. Good luck with this!

[Aaron]

Well this is just awesome. Needs more bikinibabes though...

[Ataverti]

Thanks a lot for positive comments. It really drives my development forward. I have also had lots of live test sessions and it is real joy to see peoples excitement for the game IRL. Soon I will publish Pre-order campaign for the game and then it is time for celebration 

[Ataverti]

Aaron: Thanks, bikinibabes are coming next. I am getting help from fellow 3D modeler who is helping with the rigging and animating these bikinibabes. For development purposes they are atm naked 

[Windybeard]

YES! this sounds/looks amazing!

[Ataverti]

Different variations of xombie characters. Each cloth piece is randomly selected for them.
