Next Valley preview, taken from the Facebook page

The looping part looks like Bay from TMUF

Do you need same performance as at Canyon and Stadium?

it's the same engine, so yeah you should be fine.

the looping is so damn huge

Any pixel of that picture increased my hype This will be the better TM environment ever!

A couple weeks ago he uploaded the full soundtrack, but just for one day. Now he seems to have only made 3 songs public.
I really like the menu select one, beautiful ambience.

Hm, I hope so. Valley relies heavy on vegetation, which causes frame rate drops on my PC in Canyon. Of course, I could omit the vegetation blocks, but would it look like valley then? I have to wait (only one day )

Indeed, vegetation (especially when you don't use low cost sprites!) costs performance and must be used wisely .

that's some great news. Now please add some nice MSAA or CSAA and my computer finally goes down to 60 fps

Hmm, so does this mean no rotating bushes this time?
