Pretty dope.
But make it easier to get stars. Being in the global top ten should not still earn you only 1/3 stars on a track

Very fun little racing game, especially in multiplayer. Plenty of gamemodes and the tracks are well designed.
Only complaint is that time trial mode is a bit frustrating, since getting the top times on some tracks requires passing through checkpoints that you can't actually see as closely as possible, so there's some trial and error involved. On some tracks you can take massive shortcuts, and one some (the one with the train stands out), your lap wont count if you take some very mild corner-cuts that just shave off tenths of seconds.

A fun and cool small game! The developer of this game also has his own Discord server and he is very kind.

Who are all the pros on the leaderboard? :) I spent a bit too much time on time-trial justtrying to beat my scores, really cool to see the fast times existing on the leaderboards though! I had a great time playing this and reminds of playing micro machine games in my younger years. Very well made and hits the spot perfect for this kinda racing game!

A cute and enjoyable game, made by an incredibly friendly and passionate developer. Significantly more difficult (and frustrating) than it looks. Haven't come across any weird bugs or glitches so far, other than the fact that I really suck at driving - though I don't think the game's to blame for that, it's a pretty accurate representation. Overall, for the price at hand, definitely no regrets!

This game feels like a remake of Super Sprint, and I absolutely love it
All the races in the game are good, though there are some shortcuts, they don't break the game
And also, OST in this game is amazing
I really recommend checking this game out, it's a lot of fun, especially with friends

[h1]Here's what you do:[/h1]
You race the clock or other cars from a top-down view of the entire track which fits on a single screen. There is support for up to eight players locally. Game modes include time trial, championships, survival, demolition derby, an endless course to see how far you can get without crashing, air hockey, and a package delivery competition.
[h1]What I like:[/h1]
There are plenty of game modes and support for up to eight players to play locally. You can choose from a selection of cars with their own stats (and choose what color). A nitro boost regenerates over time, so you can get one or two boosts in per lap, depending on the track, timing, and your choice on where to use it. I really like the handling and the physics in general as they feel right to me.
[h1]What I don't like:[/h1]
Not a lot of single player content. I ran through all the championships and time trials in 90 minutes. The cars are labeled as class C or class A. The class A cars are way faster than the class C cars. There may be situations where C cars could be advantageous, maybe in tracks with a lot of tight turns, but I found the A cars to be better overall. I could play this more and get a better feel for all the cars, but I ran through the content already so I felt I could post my review. The creator has stated that more content is planned for the game, so hopefully that adds to the overall experience.
[h1]Conclusion:[/h1]
This game will accommodate those looking for a top down racing game to play locally with a group of friends. It has only about an hour's worth of single player content unless you want to go for time trial leaderboards. I have had fun with what is there, and more content should be on the way, but if you feel like you should wait and see then do so.

Yes, it's a re-born classics from ZX Spectrum!
It has 8 players hotseat mode. And it IS arcade!
Few issues and suggestion though:
- sometimes AI car gets stuck an the track no.3 - can it be brought back on track (or destroyed) after 10 secs off track?
- what about car damage in a regular race? AFAIR in the ZX - car performance also degraded if car got damage
- and yes - DNF due to damage in a regular race was a pity :) and fun
- racing tableu with positions and lap times just like on real track , please!
- let players set their names
- what about mono-class championships?
- for some reason my joystick failed to work in game
- and thanks one more time for bringing back to life my childhood memories!
