Its not trying to be a close clone, but that would be boring anyways. Its free and cross platform so i say just give it a try :D
It also has a sort of rocket league mode now apparently.

You got me at Rocket League mode, I miss that game because fuck epic.
I'll check it out later.

Ive only seen whats in the video, so i hope its actually as cool as it looks.

Freshly installed... it's not.
Feels, sounds and looks like a demo, more than a full release.
Even browsing the addons from inside the game it's just... text... no icons or thumbnails.
The controls feel strange, as if you were skating more than driving a kart.

Probably I'm missing downloading some needed addons, but this first impression doesn't really inspire me into looking further into it.
