I sometimes pass near a checkpoint without activating it, while I still have the impression I stayed on the road.\n\nI would have loved to destroy something when bumping in the bushes (either my car, or the bushes itself).

And I'm surprised it seems most of the game seems to be made from a framework than a WYSIWYG 3D game engine like Unity, Unreal, and Godot.  It's also feels very, very rough to me.  While the graphics aren't too bad, I did find the driving sound effect grating and repetitive.  The music didn't help the presentation, either.  Like @recher, I would have liked to see a control introduction screen.  After learning what the Ctrl key does, it makes the game a lot more playable and enjoyable.\n\nOther parts I found the game needing some polish is the camera movement.  While it's good that the camera pans in the direction the player turns, since I adjust my turns frequently by tapping left or right, the jolting movement made me motion-sick.  And as a few people above said, I'd like to seem some strategic mechanics mixed in, like drifting and boosting.\n\nIt sounds like this is a build-on-top of an existing game, and I certainly would like to see it developed more.  It does feel like this entry isn't quite there yet.","format":"md","likes":0,"spam":"N"}],"format":"md","images":["ld48\/wayback-placeholder.png"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/github.com\/ReactorScram\/ld48","text":"Git
