Evaluation
RideOp entered Early Access on December 12, 2017, and GuraShop delivered a series of free content updates during that period — including new rides, environments, and gameplay features. The game officially left Early Access on October 18, 2018, with the developer explicitly calling it their "final product" in a news post on October 10, 2018. That same 1.0 release was accompanied by the "New Heights" expansion pack, which added two new rides and was included free for Deluxe Edition owners. Both DLC items in the store — the Deluxe Edition and the New Heights expansion — are fully released with no unreleased content listed. The last substantive developer communication was a minor maintenance patch on March 17, 2020, which the developer themselves described as leaving the game "mostly still the same." No new content, roadmaps, or future update announcements have been made since the 1.0 launch. The developer's own language at release ("final product") combined with the complete absence of any post-launch content commitments or further announcements indicates the game shipped as a finished product in October 2018.

About this game
RideOp is a new simulation game that puts you in control of some of the biggest and most thrilling theme park rides in the world.
Open the gates, check the restraints and give all your guests the most unforgettable experience! With full control of the ride's motion, you can offer a unique journey every ride.
Watch out for the safety of your guests! Make sure the loading and unloading gates are properly close, all the restraints are locked and checked and make sure the intensity of the ride is not set to "astronaut's training program" or you might find an unpleasant surprise on the floor from one or more of your guests that you will have to take care of.
As in real life, weather will play an important factor in some rides. High speed winds could endanger the safety of your riders so the ride's computer will shut down the system if the meteorology makes impossible to operate the ride safely.
Are you up for the challenge? Explore the different game modes and complete all your duties in the time given to earn experience points. Don't make the guests wait too much in the queue or they could start to run out of Instagram photos to like on their phones and start complaining!
-Fully modelled rides with loading/unloading platforms, entry queue and a fully functional control cabin with the ride's operation panel.
-Highly detailed guests to ride your thrilling machines with many different animations and reactions.
-Realistic environment to immerse yourself even more.
-Sandbox: Where you can explore the ride controls without a time pressure, perfect for beginners and people who want to enjoy every part of the ride experience.
-Challenge: Do you think you can complete all the tasks on time? Use your practice and knowledge of the ride to deliver the best best experience for your guests in the most efficient time and earn points that will help you grow in your career and unlock additional content.

Now it's your turn to create thrilling experiences!
