The OctaRace crowdfunding campaign is launching very soon on Kickstarter! You can already follow the pre-launch page so you don't miss the big launch! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/pixelalmostperfect/octarace With this event just around the corner, it's time to tell us a little more about us! Pixel Almost Perfect is an independent video game studio of just two people, which we've been passionately supporting since 2018. OctaRace, the studio's second project, is the result of more than three years of hard work in our free time, lunchtimes, evenings, and weekends. PixelHeart, our publisher on OctaRace, allowed us to work with incredible guests without whom we wouldn't have come this far: Alexis Laugier, Simon "Hutt" Trousellier, Pierre-Alexandre Rouillon, Charles Duchesne, and Alexis Sreuse. A huge thank you to all of you. OctaRace is scheduled for release this year, 2025. Thank you for your support!

Dear OctaRace pilots, Let's begin by a warm THANK YOU to all! Playing our demo & wishlisting the game can't be more important for us. Your trust help us to make the game better & being confident in the near future. With OctaRace we are determined to create a great tribute to arcade racing games we loved. Our huge team of two people is working hard since 2 years now (on our free time), we are eager to finally show you our passion for fat pixels. With this project we are searching to retrieve the emotions we lived when we were kids, sharing a pad with friends in a couch, yelling and laughing at each damned injustice. We strongly believe in neo-retro games, and are proud to be part of it with OctaRace. This demo is still a work in progress version of the game, there is so much more content & features to come but you have the rough idea of what we want to achieve. Supported by PixelHeart, we are aiming a final version end of 2024 for PC & Consoles, digital & physical versions. Thanks again for your support & kindness, Stay tuned for more!
