"ehhh.."

date: September 23, 2008

It's almost a good game. Like i read below, I want to like it, but I can't. The controls are way off, but if you fix that it would definitely help the game A LOT.

"Same here"

It'd be a really cool and fun game, with these concept and graphics. Please try to do something about the car's constant drifting. Although the idea of sliding giving to the score is good. Try lessening the value of the variable that sets the speed of moving "forward" while turning.
Peace

"I want to like this game"

date: August 12, 2008

but I simply can't. As others have mentioned, the handling on the cars is horrible. I got decent enough at it to finish three challenges, but the handling is so unrealistic and touchy that its near impossible to get good times on the tracks.

Too many times I would finally finish that second lap, and it wouldn't count the lap, so I would lose the challenge. I don't know if it's due to me going off the track too much or if its a generalized glitch, but it's a huge deal breaker when you finally fight the horrible physics enough to "win" but don't get the lap counted.

The drifting mechanics are so over the top that it's near impossible to back up after making a mistake because the car always "drifts" the opposite direction from where the car should turn when going in reverse.

If you fix the physics, you could have a very fun top-down racer. As it is, it's just unplayable. The game is more of a "can you defeat my horribly hard physics" game than a fun and challenging racing game.

"Needs work."

date: August 12, 2008

Good setup, but gameplay is really bad.
Remove losing points for going off road.
I completed one lap, but it still said 1/3... I did go off the road for a bit, but I got back on as soon as possible and in the least distance (I didn't take any shortcuts is what I'm trying to write).

"great!"

date: August 12, 2008

was great to do, but it's like driving on ice. Should make the car more controlable.

"Great design, poor end-product"

date: August 12, 2008

When the menu screen was shown, I was very very impressed with the menu's design, the options available, and the amount of cars on offer.
Unfortunately the cars themselves are uncontrollable.
If that could be fixed, you would have a very good game here.

Other things you could consider are...
Leader boards
Cars to race against.
Colour options for cars

Anyhoo, good luck with all your future products :).

"Not very fun"

date: August 12, 2008

That metallic sound is extremely annoying and even the first challenge is harder than it should be. The controls are bad and the game is hardly playable.
