From the days of a 2 man game building team, to multiple teams of developers, RedLynx has had an interesting and eventful 13 years of Trials-riding madness.

RedBull goes one-on-one with Antti Ilvessuo, RedLynx Creative Director, and RedLynx wrestling champion.

Antti and his brother and co-founder Atte will have come full circle: from humble beginnings with a tiny web game on PC, they’ve since been to Xbox and back, racking up millions of sales along the way. With Gold Edition, they’ve finally returned to the PC, where it all started.

“We always wanted to bring Trials Evolution and Trials HD to the PC platform,” Ilvessuo tells Red Bull UK. “That’s why our tagline for this game is 'Trials is coming home.' We know many PC gamers were upset that the games had been up until now Xbox 360 exclusives, but the realities of being a small, independent developer is that you sometimes need to make sacrifices in the short term...That's how we've managed to stay around for 13 years, and we really think now that PC gamers are getting this loving, special edition, they will agree it was worth the wait.”

The dust has settled, the spanners and wrenches have been put aside, and now it's time to see where the builders have placed. The close of the Trials Evolution: Gold Edition Beta on March 14th also saw the close of the first Trials Evolution: Gold Edition Track building competition. The Trials Evolution: Gold Edition Beta Build Off left us with some nice tracks to check out, but sadly only three could come out on top, so let’s count ‘em down!

Coming in at third, and walking away with a signed Trials Concept art print & a Trials t-shirt, is Murdoc Loch with his challenging extreme track Working Stiff. We've got a few broken thumb-sticks that are all the Loch'd Up.

Barely squeezing past Murdoc, and taking home a signed concept art print, Trials t-shirt and Trials Evolution: Gold Edition Steel Book is Biohazard by LostTechnique.

And finally, the grand prize winner, the one who wins ALL the previously mentioned prizes, plus a Trials Hoodie & Trials Evolution Gold Edition Gold Medal, is nannerdw with his track Sushi Business!

Congrats to our winners, and be sure to grab these tracks off of Trials Evolution: Gold Edition's Track Central when the game launches on March 21st! Game on, Trialers.
