Junkyard Rush Racing Steam Charts & Stats

Junkyard Rush Racing immediately immerses you in the atmosphere of crazy southern racing: dusty roads, old cars and excitement at every turn. The tracks are varied, and 16 cars with the possibility of upgrades add depth to the gameplay. The controls are simple, but to win, you need to strategically use nitro and look for optimal routes. The modes include races, tournaments, and an exciting Time Trial, where you constantly compete with yourself. And split–screen multiplayer is an excuse to gather friends and have an evening of fun races. So far, the experience is great, the game is addictive from the first laps!

Simple, but fun arcade racer, with splitscreen enabled and working both with controllers, or with both players on one keyboard (ah, oldschool memories!)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DxpQAohFQK0 Arcade racers are one of those golden genres for me like shmups, beat 'em ups, and RTS where if someone makes a new one, I will be there checking it out ASAP. So I was quite interested when this dropped on Steam at the end of December, but its $20 pricetag was too high to consider for a complete unknown with very few reviews. Just a month later it dropped to $10 and $5 on sale, and you bet, I'll spend a fiver to take a chance on new arcade racer. On the positive side, this game is really built out with many tracks, cars, car upgrade items, and race modes. There's a lot here and it feels enjoyably old school in that way, back when games used to be mostly single player focused. Also, it looks pretty good. Sure, I guess you could classify these graphics something around the level of "high end mobile gaming," but that's fine. They won't dazzle you but look just fine on a 4K screen. The downside, unfortunately, is the driving physics themselves, which is the one thing you really have to get right. Now, they're not *terrible*, but there's two flaws to them that stop this game from being legit good and instead keep it in mediocre territory. First is the braking system. Whether regular brake or handbrake, both are dramatic and don't work like you'd expect. The regular brake stops your momentum almost completely no matter how fast you're going, and the handbrake jerks the car wildly. And not in a powerslide manner as you'd expect, but again it sends your car to a halt and when combined with your steering into a turn, you can suddenly go from, say, a 2 o'clock direction to 10 o'clock in the blink of an eye. That just doesn't work, it's unusable. As you can see in my video above, I started off at first trying to use the brakes around corners and constantly crashed into walls and finished last. It's in later races when I learned to not use brakes *at all* and just let off the gas for corners and then I was consistently finishing 1st. The other problem with the driving physics, which isn't as dramatic as the braking problem, is the cars don't have enough weight. Well, at least the starter car doesn't, perhaps others do. When you crash into a wall your car doesn't just sit there like it should, it bounces back, and often in a different direction than it was originally facing. This makes those occasional crashes and spinouts that much more difficult because sometimes you'll end up facing in the wrong direction entirely. But the developers of this game already gave the controller system a fix a couple weeks after the game came out, so who knows, maybe they'll continue to tweak it. Because if they alleviated those two issues, for me this would turn a mediocre game to an actual good one. 6/10

Crossout on minimals) Excellent graphics and musical accompaniment

Cars are cool, it's cool to ride, the game is cool, it's cool!

I don't break any traffic laws, because I just don't obey them haha it's a good game. + special thanks for the multiple camera view + retro style + reference to old legendary car arcade series + maybe it's better played on mobile but why not? I enjoyed it. p.s add more maslcars oooooh yeahhhhhh

Finally got my eye on the race.... The positives of the game: - Nice graphics; - Lack of bugs; - There are groovy soundtracks; - Low price; - There is a variety of modes. Some negative aspects: - Few languages of the game; - Uniform tracks.

Not a bad arcade racing in which you can get high by taking other cars to the side of the road. Good handling cars, but little variety in the maps (hard to get bored). I would like to see a first-person view from the cockpit and not from the hood to drive on his m5f90 in the desert and kick everyone's ass. BUT THERE IS NO SUCH THING HERE(((. Of the minuses only the price, a bit expensive for arcade races.

A very atmospheric setting. It's not a simulation game, but if you love arcade racing, it's highly recommended. The only downside is the handbrake, which reacts very sharply. It takes some time to get used to it.
