We (don't) need to go faster!



<span class="bold">OmniBus</span>, a frenetic bus-racing simulator inside a coloful offbeat world, is now available for Windows, Mac, and Linux, DRM-free on GOG.com with a 10% launch discount.

All hail the OmniBus! Recognised by all past and future roadkill as the most accurate bus simulator around, OmniBus gives you the stirring wheel of a runaway bus, bent on world transportation. Carry people to their (final?) destination as you reach overwhelming and totally unsafe speeds, perform ridiculous flips, jumps, and twists, and explode enemy buses out of the way. The diverse play modes will let your sloppy driving skills run wild as you unleash the unstoppable power of your OmniBus.



Hop on a crazy <span class="bold">OmniBus</span> and get ready to spread chaos in the streets of an unsuspecting city, DRM-free on GOG.com. The 10% launch discount will last until June 2, 2:59 PM UTC.

Because it shouldn't be forgotten, and GOG should not be allowed to ignore it through apathy.

On the upside, we now have another data point to try to figure out the algorithm that defines "too niche".

Obviously a bus doesn't fit in a niche. ;)

Note to developers: start including buses in all of your upcoming games.

Sad to report; just finished Verne's 'Around the World in Eighty Days' - despite the protagonists having to wait a deal of time for several of their transports, no buses were involved.

"Too niche", GOG definition:

Games for which we can't work out bad jokes and/or puns into the description.

As you can see, this one just barely made the cut.

So has anyone actually played this?

Yes, it looks like shit, but I've played some pretty great games that on the outside appeared to be shit. I've also played some fantastic looking games that were beyond shit. :P

Yes. If the demo counts. It plays about as shallow and mediocre as it looks.

Think they'll ever change their mind? I mean we have a couple of games published by Degica here and I really want to see more, the Cave games they're getting being prime among them. Mushihimesama supposedly outperformed each of the Raiden Steam entries, Raiden being a reasonably known series for the overall genre.

Based on MatCat's/ChronoWolf's Twitch stream VOD, I think this looks like dumb, absurd fun. I could totally see picking it up in a sale.

Also, nice to see the "I rate games I don't own based on screenshots/videos/demos" brigade has weighed in on the game page. Pity that won't actually do anything to make the games they want show up here. But unjustly shitting on something unrelated will somehow let others know that they are Displeased, and that's what matters. :|

It's pretty clear GOG curators are ignorant about certain genres. One would hope they'll wake up, but who knows...

Pffft, GOG "curators".

They'll release it if the publisher lines their pockets with a few bucks.

Looks like junior's first unity game after learning how to do physics.

We need even higher quality games for the users of GoG.

Screw Omnibus and give us Crazybus instead.
Check out this awesome review.
