The definitive illustrated history of the cult videogame―a heart-thumping fusion of groundbreaking graphic design, architectural futurism, electronic music, and high-speed racing.

Working its way through the fascinating creation story and cultural footprint of the WipEout game series, WipEout Futurism offers unprecedented access to the game's visual archives and reveals the creative processes behind the teams, tracks, vehicles, and iconography that define the series. Within these pages you will find original concept art, promotional materials, in-game photography, the monumental graphic design work of The Designers Republic, and much more.

WipEout crashed onto the scene in 1995, shifting games into the cultural fast lane with its unique 3D visual designs. It propelled a wondrous hit of antigravity, hyper-speed racing into the heart of the freshly released PlayStation console and, over time, the series grew into a cult phenomenon among graphic designers and gamers alike. With its clubland branding, devised by cutting-edge Sheffield agency The Designers Republic, and its on-the-pulse collaborations with electronic artists, from the Chemical Brothers to Kraftwerk, WipEout was not only a racing game, it was a vehicle for art.

WipEout Futurism chronicles the iconic game's vision, struggles, and achievements―from first conception to future plans―in a distinctive union of trailblazing artwork and graphic design. The book includes exclusive interviews with electronic duo Orbital's Paul Hartnoll, sound designer Loic Couthier, writer Damon Fairclough, game director Stuart Tilley, and more.

so engaging
Format: Kindle
Start to finish, I was hooked. The imagery, the emotion, the drama, and the real world application all linked perfectly together with the healing power of love, and compassion. If you never give up hope, all things will work out in your favor. Thanks Serenity for being so strong and resilient. Thanks AJ Shirley for your amazing work. On to book two!

Fun, Easy Read
Format: Kindle
A really fun, easy read! The main character was really likeable, and the male main characters were engaging and fun. Is this book going to change your life or reinvent literature? No. Is it an enjoyable read free from distracting errors that I plowed through in an afternoon? Yes. On to book two!

Knotty Omegas series is a work of art!!
Format: Kindle
A.J. Shirley has done it again. I was hesitant to read this book because of the premise of omegaverse, but I loved Shirley's Aegis Saga so much that I decided to give this a try. I finished it faster than any other book I've ever read. I fell in love with Serenity, her sharp wit, her creativity, and her ability to hope and love despite her horrible past. I loved witnessing her healing journey. Her chemistry and connection with the pack made my heart race. The men were incredibly lovable and snuggly. And the spice was SPICY. Buckle up.

Knot their style
Format: Kindle
So I really enjoyed the story. I don’t really like dark omegaverse, surprisingly from the themes it did not go Dark. Instead, it stayed sweet. I like Serenity, you can tell just by the first scene that she was a fighter. She had to save her own life. Once she did save her own life she gets hit by a car. So then Pack Rhodes saves her life, I mean what do you do with a unconscious abused omega that you may or may not have hit with your car. Take her home of course. Loved this book and cant wait for the next one

Cute read
Format: Kindle
Overall, this was a cute read. I liked the characters mostly. Remy was a bit ridiculous at points. Would consider reading more by this author.
