This game was short lived but got me through some tough times. It's a shame it was bought and abandoned. It was the perfect battle royale. The aesthetic, music and gameplay were top notch.
This game was cut down before it ever got started and I think that is a damn shame. To see it revived here would be amazing, I hope to play it and see it expanded beyond the simple demo it once was.
In the darkest moments of my life, when hope felt like a distant memory and loneliness crept in like an unshakable shadow, I found salvation in the unlikeliest of places—a short-lived battle royale game called Radical Heights.
Back in 2018, when the world felt like it was moving forward without me, I stumbled upon Radical Heights. It wasn’t just another game; it was an escape, a neon-soaked world of BMX bikes, over-the-top 80s aesthetics, and a chaotic, game-show-inspired battle for survival. It was different, and at a time when everything in my life felt monotonous and uninspired, different was exactly what I needed.
The moment I dropped into my first match, something clicked. The quirky announcer, the rush of looting buildings filled with cash, the thrill of last-minute shootouts—it all felt alive. And for the first time in a long while, so did I. The game wasn’t perfect, but that was part of its charm. It was scrappy, rough around the edges, but bursting with personality—just like me, I suppose.
And then, just as quickly as it arrived, it was gone. The servers shut down. The game, abandoned in the wake of its developer’s struggles, faded into memory. But what it gave me—the friendships, the joy, the proof that even in the bleakest moments, a spark of happiness could be found—that never left me.
That’s why Radical Heights deserves another chance. Not just because it was a unique battle royale, but because it was more than a game. Bring back those Radical Heights
This was the first battle royal game I got first place in, and I did it while streaming on twitch. It was great and made me so happy, since then i've won plenty of times in other BR games but it was so amazing to get the "best around" theme to play.
That was one of the most fun BRs I've ever played. Nothing like being in an 80s game show, based in the future and fighting dudes on BMX bikes wearing mesh midriff shirts and fanny packs, while listening to 80s music. Almost like Skate or Die meets PUBG....
The weapons were fun, but had good mechanics. Movement was arcade-y, but felt fluid and normal. The graphics were good. The textures were retro. The announcer, mid-round mini game(giant spin wheel), and map design really made this game fun and unique.
If there was any game I'd want to revive and play with my friends again, it would be this one.
This game was short lived but was it awesome, never was given a true chance... Gameplay felt smooth, liked the aesthetic a d how you found unlocks in the world not just buying from a shop.... We need this game back, I need this game back
This game was a load bearing phenomenon in my life. I played it when it launched all the way to the bitter end. I was there when you could no longer fly around on bikes. When we put the moves on them, outsmarting opponents at every burger town and burgertown. I spun and won many times. I played for 14 hours straight when it came out. This game hooked me into at least three long lasting IRL friendships that persist to this day. Those heights will always be radical.
Some Battle Royal games encourage players to be sneaky, stealthy, and SWEATY. Contrast that with Radical Heights, which rewards you with fabulous prizes for taking a DANCE BREAK! Running around is too slow? Hop on a sick BMX and do some radical jumps!
The vibe for this game was unbelievably fun and amazing; from the outfits, to the announcer, to the set colors, it was like the next evolution of Smash TV. I cannot express how much more fun it was to die in this game than it was trying to win in any other!

FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival.
Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed.
The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo.
As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity.
Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.Our Pick Top Trending Science fiction Sandbox
