    October Featured Builder: kalianhagle

    It’s fall, Trials Riders. The time of year when days get shorter, trees turn colors and things tend to get a little spooky. It’s also the beginning of a new month and time to shine our Featured Builder spotlight on another member of our tremendously creative building community. This time around we are looking at the creations of PC’s kalianhagle.

    kalianhagle took some time out of his latest build to answer a few questions about custom tracks and building so enough from me, let’s hear from the man himself.

    Username: kalianhagle
    Name: Jonas
    Platform: PC

    What was your first Trials game?
    My first trials game was Trials Evolution Gold Edition on PC. I was immediately hooked on the awesome skill based gameplay! I think today’s games in general offer too little challenge, but trials does not!



    What track that you have built is your favorite?
    I'm pretty happy with "Forest Settlement"



    What is your favorite track from another builder?
    ~PSYCLOCK~ by x KaiLiMAN x [video]

    How would you describe your building philosophy or style?
    I always aim to make a track fun to ride and to look good. Sometimes I take my time decorating and adding lots of details, other times I make a track short and simple. It depends on my mood and creativity at the moment. The most important thing is to have fun building.

    What makes a custom track really stand out for you?
    Good use of sounds, lights and shadows. It can create a really good atmosphere. Depth and details on driving line objects, especially custom objects, makes a track stand out from the others. Combine all this with a good driving line and you have a great track!

    Do you have any advice for other custom track builders?
    Challenge yourself, try to build outside your comfort zone, and have fun!



    Thanks a lot to kalianhagle for taking the time to speak with us and for giving us so many enjoyable tracks. You can find 16 kalianhagle creations right now in the Featured Feed on Track Central.

    Nice tracks, I really enjoyed playing them. I also liked the inclusion of ninja tracks... I was actually able to finish them, and with only a tiny bit of controller-throwing rage. Congrats kalianhagle!
