Monday Update - June 29, 2026
Yo! Hope everyone had a nice weekend.
If you're new here, we have a Team Sync every Monday where we discuss our plans for the week. These are the notes from our meeting.
General Updates
We're still working on getting customization in the game. That has been our priority, and the goal is to have something working before Whistler Crankworx next month.
I don't think we will have new builds this week. The behind-the-scenes part of customization is coming together, but the player-facing stuff isn't ready yet, so we don't want to push it half-done. We might drop a smaller quality-of-life update instead, things like day/night adjustments, a flashlight toggle, and picking the time of day in single player. But no promises! It's also a short week for US team members due to Independence Day.
Here's what we are focusing on this week.
Michael
Building out the backend for customization.
New rider IK system in place, which is the start of the "steeze pass"
Pulling in the latest rider models from Maggie once they're verified.
Maggie
Finishing up the updated rider models and handing them off to Michael to get into the project.
Checking Michael's approach on the new gear-swapping shader to make sure it's the best way to go.
Cedric
Building a replica of the 1199 Whistler track for our Crankworx trip.
Pushing to get a first draft finished by the middle of next week.
Damien
Working on the ski jump POI area and a bridge that connects into the village.
Starting on the partner gear and bike assets for the Whistler event.
Joe
Wrapping up the HUD UI redesign and then moving on to the challenge menu.
Whistler event planning.
Bryan
Sorting out the brand assets and a one-pager so we can reach out to partners cleanly.
Reviewing the Next Fest launch plan with Julian.
Julian
Taking over our Twitter account and getting regular posts going again.
Looking at refreshing the Steam page ahead of the Whistler event.
Usual social content.
That's the plan for this week. Probably no big feature drop, but maybe a small quality-of-life update.
I spent Sunday morning taking some photos of shelter dogs. Here's one of my favorites. Hope you have a great week!
