Become a master of your car and blast through stages with ease!

I've been developing This super short rally/touge-inspired game for the last month or so. The game features randomly generated levels so you can't learn the tracks! Each level presents a new host of AI drivers for you to race against with increased difficulty each time. There are 5 stages, each with hundreds of different track possibilities. 

Thanks for checking out my game!

Controls:

  • Turning -> Left/ right, A/D, Controller left joystick
  • Throttle/ Brake -> Up/ Down, W/S, Controller RT/ LT
  • Hand Brake -> Shift, Space, Controller A/RB
  • Pause -> Esc, Controller start

(Controller controls are based off of an Xbox controller)

Tips:

  • Your car turns quicker when not accelerating
  • Handbrake for tight turns
  • Drifting before turns can be quicker but more risky
  • Using the handbrake when on ice and slowing down before going onto ice can help you gain more control
  • AVOID THE WATER!!!
  • Getting AI to bump into the back of your car can give you a boost
  • While you can play in the browser it's recommended to download the game ;)

The game isn't amazingly well polished but I have found myself racing the AI for a few hours at a time while working on it so I thought I'd release a pre-alpha version of the game for you guys to play.

That being said, while I love this game idea and want to revisit it, I've put this project on hold to explore more ideas and projects. However, if you have any suggestions or ideas for future updates/ a separate release I would love to hear them :)

p.s: this was made in Godot 4.1!

For patch notes I suggest using the built in itch devlog feature

Yeah good shout, cheers for the suggestion :)

can you add upgrades between each stage (for more of the roguelike element? (the game is cool btw)

Hopefully in a future update! Just working on finishing up a patch rn but upgrades and more rogue-like content hopefully in the future! 

Cheers for checking it out btw :)

This game lets you drive how insurance companies think that new drivers do, 10/10.

Thank you!

It's pretty cool but solely the rail collisions are what break it, the direction being reset for you and the camera jittering is just the worst and makes it unplayable, sucks if you hit an odd angle because now you're never catching up with anybody else.

Thanks for checking it out!

I 100% agree that the collisions and camera jitter are a problem - I'll try to release a patch soon and add some fixes for them. However, in the meantime, there's a setting where you can turn off the "dynamic camera" which should fix any jitter but it's not a long-term fix.
