TETHER

A 3D massive multiplayer online aerial racing game. Did I mention it is sci fi?

In the distant future humanity is getting bored of passing a ball between a bunch of men and running up and down a green rectangle, and thought to themselves 'what is the most intense and dangerous sport we can think of? And TETHER was born.

What makes TETHER so dangerous isn't just the vast quantity of contestants, but the fact that each racer's aircraft is tethered to an opponent's aircraft. 'Isn't that just racing in teams of two with a string attached?' NAY! The racer that is tethered to your aircraft can take first place from you or if they so desire; constantly drag your sorry ass down into oblivion as they crash into all sorts of obstacles.

Keep your friends close and your enemies closer. Work with the tethered "partner" to send other pairs of unfortunate speedophiles hurtling into walls and obstacles, or not.

The gameplay will be displayed in third person, giving you a glorious sight of your customizable aircraft, of which some sorry soul happens to be chained to, and a firsthand sight of the graveyar- I mean… "race course". If one of your unlucky duo crashes, they take the other with them. 'if im going down, im taking you with me!' Players can take down other racers by bumping into them, think of it as an adrenaline-fueled mega death course crammed full with other racers and you and your tether buddy fly through it at speeds that make F1 drivers jealous.
