After the release of his first game in 2015 and with the drive to apply his passion for rally in a new game, Dune immediately began development on a second title, art of rally, while continuing support for Absolute Drift. In 2024, Funselektor delved into the management simulator side of things with Golden Lap, and is now looking to offer an immersive vehicle experience with over the hill, coming to Steam on October 14th and to PlayStation\u00ae5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch\u2122 2 in 2027.
