    Basic Description:
    Must have 3 Jumps or more with no slow motions but use checkpoints at a reasonable starting point at each jump. For a new player landing jumps could be difficult so would be good to have them at places where they can retry easily without having to start over again. You are free to incorporate whatever else you like called out in the "Allowed" but just don't make too difficult for a brand new player.

    Vehicle:
    MTB

    Time Requirements:
    20-30 seconds to complete

    Difficulty Level:
    Easy/Medium

    Scenery Requirements:
    Only requirement if "Z" is used should be in scenery where appropriate to make a little easier and whatever else you think may make the track easier.
    Other than that scenery details are left to the author.

    Allowed (although don't over do it with everything, this is the 4th track for a new player they still likely suck!):
    +1 Stars
    Straight Track Line
    Basic Scenery
    Boost(s)
    Jump(s) with slow motion(s)
    Loop(s)
    Change Direction "Z"
    Gravity(s)
    Bomb(s)
    Jump(s) without slow motion(s)
    Checkpoint(s)

    Overall track teaches:
    Hammers home checkpoints + leaning L/R to make it over jumps

    Feedback:
    If you guys have feedback on the track, thinking that we are missing anything please let us know. We don't want to limit creativity but want to set forth these basic game design requirements as teaching a new player how to play is one of the most important things! There will be 10 tracks in total ranging from Super Easy - Easy - Easy/Medium with the last 3 tracks working in most of the aspects / tools available in Free Rider.

    No scenery at all? Other than Z's?

    EDIT: Nevermind. I understand.

    Oops meant no requirements other than including Z. Will clarify that now, up to the author on the scenery that they would like to add.

    Do we have anyone looking to work on this track? The requirements on this track is pretty open so a lot of creativity for the author.

    Okay here is what I have so far :) I am not done with a few little things.. But I wanted to get this up so I could get some feedback on what I need to change now and get on it.. I made sure that I put a good variety of things in there without being too overwhelming hopefully :) I explain that you need to push backspace to go back a checkpoint and I also made sure to put a checkpoint before (almost) every jump like the description says too. Also no slow motion like requested. Another thing, I haven't taken the time to view everyone's tracks but I didn't recall seeing anyone point out bombs and what they were. So I have a little cluster right at the start that says "do not touch" and then the new player can easily go and fall on them and see what they do. Then BAM! now they know what bombs do :p It is in no position to kill them unless they choose to. Anyway please let me know what you think and what I need to change :) Thanks

    I think I am pretty much done.. I added some background scenery at the start and finish and also in the cave.. I tried not make it too much. But I figured it would be easier to erase it then add more so if it is too much that is all good. please let me know what you guys think!!!!!! Char Eric Velksy

    Here's what I have right now. It's only the outline so far. The track will be longer in the end.

    I don't know if I'm over-doing the detail? Seems everyone else is detailing extremely lightly.

    Absolutely love it! Well done Speedy

    Looking great! And ya, I believe Eric asked to keep the scenery light as they don't want the brand new players to feel overwhelmed and confused.

    I just don't want to spend a ton of time making sick detail and then get turned down because it was over detailed for this campaign.

    It could still be sick and not confusing.
    And if it gets turned down, you could still modify it and publish it on your profile.

    Okay, cool. I'll post the finished trackcode tomorrow night then. I wanted to have two entries but I'm probably going to focus on this track, if I have the time I might make an entry for 3 or 4. Thanks for getting back to me.

    I think it looks great as is :) Feel free to add additional scenery as you see fit, or if you have time, move onto another track!

    I'm pretty bummed out. I thought I was going to be able to finish my entry in time, but I procrastinated and ya know.. I'm a moron. But expect to see my track soon, it's looking pretty beast.
