'In the back of my mind I was always thinking about how we could possibly get a high-speed rigid body physics game to play well with high latency. вЂњGetting SARPBC somewhat playable over the internet was a terrible hack that didn't even work all that well and continued to haunt me for years after its release,' he says. The precursor to a solution was there in SARPBC, but Cone speaks of it like a war veteran reliving unspeakable things.

Of course, once Psyonix had figured out how to shepherd people into online matches, there was the small matter of forcing a real-time physics simulation to run in sync on up to six machines. The mini-games in SARPBC were fun and challenging, but for Rocket League we wanted players to spend time playing something that would train them and perhaps encourage them to play online.вЂќ This meant we needed to have a more robust single-player experience for Rocket League, which is why we decided to focus on the Season mode instead of mini-games. вЂњWe've always thought of the multiplayer as the most fun part of the game, but surprisingly the majority of people who bought SARPBC never played online вЂ“ not even once. Even this required multiple modes, however.

That goal became scoring goals - using your leaping vehicles to steer a giant ball towards an opponent's goal. Cone still hopes to follow up that first pitch, but after their experience with SARPBC, Psyonix knew their best bet was to pick a single goal and nail it.

The initial concept behind Rocket League was a grand series of mini-games to test every aspect of automotive acrobatics in an open world. Psyonix wanted to remake SARPBC as soon as it released. To start, it was self-funded, and the money was gone the marketing budget was buttons and fluff, and word of mouth wasnвЂ™t much of an option with YouTube in its infancy and Twitch non-existent.

SARPBC and Rocket League were very much born out of вЂfollowing the funвЂ™.вЂќДЄlas, SARPBC was the product of a relatively new studio chock full of devs fresh from college (Cone himself joined with a flock of interns brought in to wrestle with SARPBC in its adolescence) and it struggled. Even in its rough infancy the game was so fun that we yet again changed course to focus on it as the primary game. Several prototypes were made until one day somebody decided to drop a ball into an arena to see how that played out. вЂњWe needed more game modes to appeal to publishers, so we started exploring what else we could do with these cars. вЂњThat mode was so fun we decided to focus on it as the primary game,вЂќ Cone says. But whatвЂ™s more fun than smashing cars off static objects? As SARPBCвЂ™s Crash Course mode was to demonstrate, smashing cars off other cars and spoiling peopleвЂ™s days.

Onslaught went down a treat, so rather than change tack, Psyonix opted to apply their vehicular expertise to a then unnamed racing game that pitted driver against obstacle, tacking on a rocket boosters as a means to control speed. SARPBC has its roots in Unreal Tournament 2004вЂ™s Onslaught mode, for which Psyonix founder David Hagewood was drafted to prototype vehicle physics. Seven years and five million Rocket League downloads later, it looks like they caught it.

It was difficult and the game had a low probability of ever releasing, but in the end it was probably for the better because we got to make the game we wanted to without having to cater to outside interests.вЂќ 'We would do work-for-hire jobs to pay the bills while working on Rocket League in our free time and between contracts. That's why Rocket League, like its predecessor, is completely self-funded,' says Cone. вЂњThere wasn't an inkling of interest coming from anybody. The lead gameplay programmer has agreed to talk about the making of Rocket League - its physics, its multiplayer, its tremendous success - but the difficulties start before the coding began, with the 2008 release of predecessor SARBC and its middling reviews and sales. вЂњSupersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle-Cars was a moderate success but the phrases вЂniche genreвЂ™ and вЂcult classicвЂ™ don't exactly whet the appetites of people wanting to make money,вЂќ Jared Cone tells me.
