Released Old Beta Versions of the Car Jump Arena - Archive Release

Hi everyone,

Following a recent request from a community member, I’ve decided to release several old beta versions of my original Car Jump Arena map. These versions are from early development stages and are being shared purely for archival and nostalgic purposes.

Important Notes Before Installing:

1. All previous versions of the “Car Jump Arena” must be completely removed.
   Make sure to delete any existing installations and clear your cache to avoid conflicts or loading issues.
   
   
2. Car Jump Arena 2023, 2024, and 2025 are not affected.
   These versions can remain installed and do not need to be removed.
   
   
3. Expect bugs and unfinished content.
   These beta builds are incomplete. You may encounter:

• Missing textures

• Missing collisions

• Unexpected behavior or performance issues

4. No support will be provided.
These archive versions come as-is. Use at your own risk - no technical support will be offered.​

Bonus: The First Ever Playable Concept Version from 2014
As a small extra, I’ve also included the very first playable concept version from 2014. This early build marks the beginning of the Car Jump Arena project - but please don’t expect a polished gameplay experience

thanks for seeing my thread mysteryman

 

Thanks for the dose of nostalgia

 

No way! Car Jump Arena is 11 years old?? I thought Car Jump Arena was created in 0.5.6 or so, not in 0.3.
Anyway, this is cool but it would've been incredible if you included BETA 5 in this thread.

 

Unfortunately, there is no longer a (playable) version of Beta 5. There were two reasons why the version wasn't released back then:

1. The LUA code I needed for the gravity controls no longer worked after a game update.
2. Due to missing backups, I lost my working folder under "levels." Either through an update or by clearing the cache.

The 3D models and textures still exist.

 

Oh ok, that's sad
