San, ni, ichi, Hajime! The original game-show-themed extravaganza returns!
This time the contestants are racing across the globe in brand new courses set in a multitude of international locations. The campaign aims to bring Nippon Marathon 2 to Steam, Nintendo Switch, and an exclusive arcade edition (published by exA-Arcadia) with further console support as stretch goals.
The race to the campaign goal has just begun, with mouth-watering stretch goals including (but not not limited to) in-demand online mode.
Onion Soup chose to launch the Kickstarter campaign due to overwhelming support for the first game, it’s cast of characters and the continuous requests for an online mode.
“Our original four characters, our heroes if you like, have grown and changed since the last marathon. It turns out J Darwin is actually of British Royal descent and now he’s a tea drinking biscuit eating Earl!”, says lead developer Andy Madin.
”Online capability for the silly physics-based racer has been in demand since the first game’s release in 2018 and Onion Soup would love to see enough support to make it a reality.”
