"OpenRCT2 is an open-source re-implementation of RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 (RCT2), expanding the game with new features, fixing bugs and raising game limits."

A project I never see great brought up enough so here's some love to a great classic game that's been revitalized by fans.

This is probably the most unusual new coaster type I was working on. A lot of progress was made and I even had a preview image but like most of my stuff it was never finished.

This was a branch I was working on which added vertical boosters, as well as an option for regular boosters to breaks on the reverse pass. It was never completed.

I'm reposting some old content to get this started. This was from when the large sloped turns were still in development.
