Otherwise, I liked the collisions and even though the driving physics was a little odd, I liked the friction and slowdown.  Pretty cool.  I also really thought it was cool that there was the one screen mode and then also a closer view.  That's a cool approach."},{"author_name":"Salamander3","author_uid":"20648","time":"Dec 10, 2014 @ 12:31pm","epoch":1418214360,"text":"@Team Flashlight: Yeah, that was a bug I never got round to fixing, though I know exactly why it happens.

You are the orange racer. Try and get round the track before the others can for 3 laps of too-close-to-the-camera fun. WASD to move\/rotate, space to flip between too far away camera and too close camera. Some of the cars are jerks. \r\n\r\nRECOMMENDATIONS:\r\nPlay on highest quality. It's not that intensive and a bug appeared in build where the text won't run on lower quality (sorry). \r\nPlay on 16:9 resolution. I didn't think ahead much with this so that makes it look best.
