Description

Oh, Deer! is a driving game - not a racing game! Driving games like Outrun, Chase HQ, and Roadblasters have fallen by the wayside, in favor of racing games like Gran Turismo. No offense to Gran Turismo, but we at Necrosoft want weird, snappy drifts, blue skies, strange graphics, and hot, aggressive music.

Currently we've just released the beta version on Humble, after releasing an alpha on PlayStation Mobile a year or so back. We fully intend to do more with it, if we can!

In Oh, Deer! the object is to hit as many or as few deer as possible, while making it to grandma's house within the time limit. Isn't it time people started making games about the Real Issues again!? This is a true pseudo-3D driving game, pushing lots of sprites, with camera tilt, hills, hot drifting, the whole 9 yards. Oh hey and we've got music from Motohiro Kawashima of Streets of Rage 3 fame.

NOTE: Currently not available for sale.

History

Oh, Deer! began life as an instant messenger conversation. Brandon's friend Ian said Hey you know those signs that say 'deer next five miles,' and Brandon was like “yes, of course, what am I a jerk,” and Ian says well, wouldn't it be funny if when you saw one of those signs, the road was just flooded with deer? And Brandon decided it would be pretty funny, he guessed! So we started to think about what kind of game that would be. We burned through about 100 million super cool coders and artists trying to find the right group of people to make this thing a reality, but we got there! And now it plays just as we want! So snappy!
