I'm a long time fan of the Trials[1] game series, and it's sad that we might never see another trials game from RedLynx[2]. On the other hand, it's a great opportunity to make it myself.
It's going to be free to play, web based, running on 10yo hardware, with open leaderboards and ability for users to create custom levels.

Haha that's awesome! I'm in my thirties and these past few months I've been playing Trials rising with a high school friend. We used to play this 15+ years ago in school. Thought about developing my own as well (how hard can it be, it's basically 2D) but getting the physics to feel right was pretty difficult. Good luck! Is there some way I can receive updates on your progress?
Gameplay feedback: I'm a pretty decent player at the original games and I couldn't make it over a single obstacle, the controls seem extremely sensitive/abrupt currently.
