Fumes Stunt Racer, will be available FREE on the iOS for this weekend only! As a collaboration with Appvent Calendar, you'll be able to grab the Stunt Car Racer inspired game developed by Melbourne's own Sector3 between December 3rd and December 5th.
If you've been keeping up with the Sector3 Development blog, Sector3 has taken all the feedback from the initial release of Fumes Stunt Racer and released a huge v1.1 update mid last month with a whole lot of fixes, fine tunings, optimisations,…
well, it is not so much that it is finished, it is more that i'm moving on and not working on it further.
Nice to wrap something up, annoying the difference in quality of what you want to get done and what you can realistically get done. Still also have to jump through Apple hoops to get the game to be on sale.

It's not too often a game company opens up and reports on the current state of their studio and responds to any concerns relating to their titles. It's even more rarer for the CEO of the company to take on the duty, so it's a special treat to read a personal post from CEO and founder, Rob Murray, on the Firemint blog doing just that.
