Howdy, horse enthusiasts and gamers! 🤠 Get ready for a wild ride as we delve into the unpredictable world of ASTRIDE. Saddle up, because we're about to trot into the chaos of its Early Access journey! 🏇✨

Fasten your seatbelt as we rewind to June 2nd, 2023, the day ASTRIDE galloped onto the gaming scene with its Early Access pass priced at €25 EUR. The release, a hot mess, left us questioning the game's future. Developers blamed setbacks and government funding rules, leaving us with a horse creator, a paddock, and a riding arena. No gameplay loop, and the jump mechanics were simply sad.

Fast forward six months to December 1st, a big update attempts to patch up the mess. Despite still being in early development, it remains a pay-to-play product. Witness the visual downgrade, with the dreamy pastel palette replaced by harsh light that'll make you reach for virtual sunglasses. Explore dark shadows and harsh lines that are everything you don’t want in a gaming atmosphere.

Take a deep dive into the horse creator and its genetics, where accuracy is crucial. Explore the flaws in equine genetics representation and the importance of relying on verified genetic research. From base colors to cream dilutions, we unravel the nuances of horse coat genetics. Discover why Buckskin is a cream dilution, not a base coat, and why agouti gene representations need correction.

Embark on an exploration of ASTRIDE's horse mechanics, from inverse kinematics ensuring hooves adjust to uneven ground to the intricacies of gaits and animations. Witness the complexities of walk, trot, canter, and gallop, and the challenges of jumping mechanics that feel more like a mini-game than an immersive experience.

Uncover the December release featuring Dressage and Show Jumping. Enjoyable Dressage tests lack lateral movements, but the challenge arises in switching gaits due to time delays and inconsistencies. Show Jumping, on the other hand, feels more like a stressful mini-game than an immersive course, lacking the immersion found in other upcoming horse games.

As we wrap up this exploration of ASTRIDE’s current state after six months of development, we hold hope that constructive criticism and feedback will nurture the game into its full potential. Keep your eye on ASTRIDE as we await further developments and improvements. 🕵️‍♂️🎮
