Evaluation
Skyreach is a free-to-play casual racing game developed by a team of University of Utah graduate students as their first published project. It launched on April 29, 2016, and the store description frames it as a finished, self-contained game with no mention of planned updates, additional content, or ongoing development. The developer has made no news posts of substance — none announcing new content, patches, or future plans. There is no DLC, no season pass, and no roadmap. Given that the studio explicitly identified this as their first game made by a student team, it was almost certainly shipped as a complete product with no post-launch content cycle ever intended. The game has been unchanged since its release date.

About this game
**NOTE: Skyreach is best played with a console controller, ideally Xbox 360 / One or PS4. It can be played with Keyboard & Mouse.**
Skyreach is a free game inspired by playing with car toys and building tracks for them to drive on. It's an exploration of building track and driving at the same time, instead of the more traditional build track first, then drive on it after. Players are able to build one path piece a head of their current location. This requires players to not only successfully stay on the path, but also plan where to build in order to reach the end of the level.
The environment for Skyreach was inspired by the Arches National Park of Utah mixed with the floating rocks on Pandora of James Cameron's Avatar. We also drew inspiration from the rock carvings of Petra, Jordan and Palmyra, Syria.
Rainbow Goats Studio is an independent games studio of graduate students from the University of Utah's Entertainment Art & Engineering program. This is our first published game and our first project together as a studio.
