Freeride is a game about YOU. Board a Fate Train to the Spirit World in our oddball RPG where you’ll make friends, use Telekinesis, find secrets, consume ice cream and chart your own path. Each character is uniquely troubled, and in helping them find their way, you might just find yourself, too.

Rebecca from Flightyfelon Games here, with some exciting news I’ve been dying to share with you all:


This means we’ve got a shiny new trailer (you can watch it below!) which shows some never-before-seen footage of Acts 2, 3 and Intermission!

You may have also noticed that we surprise released the demo on Nintendo Switch during the Direct, which has been a goal for us for a long time.
*It’s still only out on the European store for red-tape reasons, but all accounts will have access soon!

We’re also taking part in the Women-Led Games Steam event, so be sure to check out both Freeride and all the other amazing games created by women-led and women-majority teams. :D

Following all of this, Freeride will be hopping into Steam Next Fest in a couple of days, so if you’ve not played the demo yet (or you fancy another loop to find out if you’re a Friend or a Clown) then now is the perfect time!
🚂✨✨✨

Future Friends Games is now working with us to get Freeride in your hands. You may know them as the publisher of games like Europa, SUMMERHOUSE, Omno, Gourdlets, or Exo One. Please give them a warm welcome. <3

And last but certainly not least: Freeride will be released in Q1 of 2025!
There’s still lots of work to do until then, but with the support of players like you we are filled with motivation. With the incredible community on Discord, and all the amazing comments you’ve sent our way on social media – we feel so lucky to be sharing this game with all of you!

We’ve got our ears peeled like Solo’s – tell us what you’d love to know about Freeride after this trailer here/on our Discord/on our socials (TikTok, Twitter/X, Instagram/Threads). :) We’re happy to sate your curiosities (unless they involve Ajo’s ice cream flavors).

That’s it for now, we can’t wait to show more as we draw closer to the release window! Take care and don’t forget that Freeride is watching you as you play…, we’ve got our eyes on you, you sillies. 🤡

May you solve your Unfinished Business,

-The Flightyfelon Games Team

This is our first news post in almost a year, woo!! Please look forward to these regularly becoming a thing from now on. We’re so happy that we have such a passionate community on our Discord[discord.gg], but we want to show some love to the fine folks following FREERIDE on Steam, too.

Here, you can anticipate a monthly update on the state of the game and maaaybe other surprises! We’re going to have fun with this.

First things first: This year we’ve been included in the upcoming ‘Storytellers Festival’, kicking off on the 29th Jan (hey, that’s today)! It’s amazing to be featured alongside so many other gorgeous narrative games.

Make sure you keep your eyes peeled for this shiny banner on the Steam store:
The timing couldn’t be better because, believe it or not, it’s now been ONE WHOLE YEAR since the release of the FREERIDE demo!! It's been the joy of a lifetime to see over THIRTY THOUSAND of you face judgment (big love to all you Clowns out there - you have a special place in our hearts 🤡). The team is so happy and grateful for the support, it really helps keep us motivated as we push on to the finish line!

On that note – we’ve recently finished the story implementation of Act 2 and the Intermission, which is the biggest part of the game.
Because you deserve a treat, here’s some brand new concept art from those areas:
I also wanted to share the results of last year’s Act 2 Character Design contests on the Discord – you can see the concept art and how these characters look in the game!
Arcas beloved: Mayumi & Sen, co-winners: We’re currently developing Act 3 and then will move on to Act 4 (aka, THE FINAL ACT!!). Also, I'm glad to confirm that we’re on schedule for release!! (Though we’ll keep our release date secret for just a while longer, sorryyy~)

Is there anything in particular you’d like to know about in FREERIDE? We’ve gotten this far by listening to and having amazing conversations with our community, so if there’s anything you want to say, please reach out here or on our other socials.

As many of you know, we’ve had TikTok[www.tiktok.com] for a good while now, but we recently decided to get back to posting on Twitter/X and we even started an Instagram[www.instagram.com]/Threads[www.threads.net]!

That's it for this month’s post.
Thank you always and we’ll talk to you again soon!!

With love and without judgment (probably 👀),

-The Flightyfelon Games Team

The wait is OVER.

The first act of Freeride contains about 2 hours of completely brand-new content, and can be beaten in 4 completely different ways. As you play, the game will watch your unconscious decisions and at the end you'll receive your PERSONALITY OUTCOME!

So what're you waiting for? Download the Demo already!

Your response to our little game has been completely overwhelming, and we're so excited to create a game that can live up to your expectations. See you soon!

HUGE NEWS!

FREERIDE is part of the BIG ADVENTURE EVENT this year!

Currently the game exists mostly as an interactive PowerPoint (alongside lots of blocked-in areas haha) so come watch the Devs play through an act of the game!
