It's been a long time coming. This video was recorded back in summer 2012, shortly after I released the first installment in what was to be a series. I didn't want to have to rely on YouTube annotations for titles like last time, but I couldn't find a (free) video editor that worked to my liking. That realm's pretty desolate. I became distracted with other things, and lost motivation...

But recently, I decided to grab Lightworks and do the editing on this thing, which literally means I matched the titles as closely as possible to the game in every way, and added a fade at the end of the video, all while the editor struggled to play back the uncompressed Fraps footage from an old external hard drive... (Not that it would've done any better from my laptop's hard drive, mind you.)

And here we are. The second Nitronic Rush "Style Run": selections from the Nitronic Rush soundtrack, "remixed" via the game's interactive music layers that trigger when using the car's various abilities. In this run, I take on the music playing behind the game's Hardcore levels, while completing said levels. I hope you enjoy this project that's been sitting on my hard drive for over three years!

Endless props to torcht and The Quiggles for creating this awesome music in the first place, and making these cool layers that inspired me to try this. And Team Nitronic deserves credit for putting out the game in the first place! You can get it here if you somehow haven't (it's free!): http://nitronic-rush.com/

Most of Team Nitronic is now hard at work on Distance. It takes the core of Nitronic Rush and expands upon it in countless ways, and the music's just as sweet (albeit less interactive). http://survivethedistance.com/
