FireFly is a double launch intamin blitz style coaster with many inversions ranging from Zero-G rolls to corkscrews, and a batwing.Please check out this short teaser!

FireFly was also inspired by Game of the Year nominee, The ALst of Us developed by Naughty Dog and Published by Sony Computer Entertainment America. I applaud Naughty Dog and Sony for creating such an inspiring new IP.

Here's a new video! I am eagerly waiting to show you all this ride's elements!

THE BIG REVEAL. This "daily trailer" is the final one you'll see. It reveals the layout and elements. The ride has an astonishing nine inversions including a Full Throttle inspired loop. The most unique feature of the ride is it's end. The ride finishes off with a high speed inline roll just before entering the brakes...It also offers one heck of a head chopper moment. I'm hoping to have the ride ready for upload by December 22nd....If not I will update this topic on it's release date.

Here are three images showing the progress, I'm sure you can tell which ones are a bit dated and which one was taken today. Also if a mod is reading this, could you please move this topic to "Track Advertising"? Thanks

Thing looks huge! Looking forward to it.

I loved The Last Of Us, as well. Definitely been my favourite game this year, no question.

Are you doing much to tie the ride to the Firefly theme, or is it just more so for the name?

Looking forward. And I can't believe this thing's been read like 1000 times but only has 2 responses. Ridiculous.

Those are some BIG elements

How big is the loop?

[Goku1910]

For those asking the ride's "theme" is simply just the name.

As for the large elements, the loop is over 160 feet like Full Throttle at SFMM except that it is less circular and doesn't slow down mid-loop. I made this ride to be as ridiculous as possible. Realistic or not.

What's more ridiculous is the trailer has 1/10th the views!

The slowing down in the loop of Full Throttle is the best part [:(]. Provides wicked hangtime, really amazing.

Ride looks kick ass by the way.

Due to a change in work schedules I cannot make the 12-22 date.....I posted this update to my facebook page and I edited the trailer description.

I cannot say the release because I don't want to disappoint anyone.

Thanks for understanding. Happy Holidays!

Here's your holiday update!

Only a few things left to do on Firefly....The entrance and the fencing around it. The fencing will end at a certain point. Use your imagination from there. Oh, and I need to add Apocalypse for the ridiculous version. Once the entrance is done I will upload the final Time Lapse to my YouTube.

Quoted from my YouTube page:
Today is the day I lay my final NL1 project to rest....Thanks everyone for your encouragement and amazing feedback! Firefly will be available in the next few days before NL2 releases. Everyone enjoy your New Years!

If a ride is under construction, IE: being built, then this is indeed where the topic belongs. You can make a new topic in the other sub-forum when it is released.

[Goku1910]

Well the ride is done and will be uploaded within the next day or two...But will do. New topic it is!
