Here's a Kickstarter for a motorcycle racing/combat game called Road Redemption in the works for DRM-free, microtransaction-free release on Windows, OS X, and Linux in July 2014. The game is in the works at DarkSeas Games, composed of industry veterans boasting a combined 35 years of experience who say they their goal is to create a spiritual successor to the Road Rash series. Road Redemption began preproduction in 2009 and entered full development early last year, and they are seeking $160,000 to complete the project. Here's word:

Road Redemption features a complex combat system involving classic melee weapons, kicks, counters and parries. We are also introducing firearms and explosive weapons to the fray.

Road Redemption’s single-player campaign includes races across deserts, through bustling cities, atop skyscrapers, and other levels to be announced.

Road Redemption's online multiplayer will include free-for-all and team-based combat racing missions.
