i think this game falls into a lot of the same pitfalls that other indie racing games have, which is not putting enough effort into the presentation. while i fully admit that these can be difficult for an indie dev to do (cars feeling weighty, good engine sounds, sound design in general and good sense of speed, etc), they really do make a difference and it's why i think a lot of lower-budget indie racing games fail to stick with me. this game in particular is on the weaker side of it, with really obnoxious pat-on-the-back character writing (which the DLC admittedly attempts to remedy), terrible music, and a cliche cyberpunk aesthetic. that being said, i think this one stands above the rest because it's actually innovative and actually challenging. having to learn the car you're driving and separating the difficulties based on how complex the car is to drive is extremely unique, and i had a lot of fun struggling through learning the mechanics of each individual car. i found my sweet spot with the second-highest difficulty vehicles myself. it gives me hope that the developers can take this really cool idea and eventually expand upon it with a higher-budget sequel that looks and sounds a lot nicer. if this game came out during the golden age of racing games i probably wouldn't care as much, but the genre is in desperate need of new ideas right now and i appreciate this game for what it offers.

The game's concept is quite creative—the dual-stick drift mechanic feels fresh and innovative. Different vehicles handle completely differently, to the point that switching cars almost feels like playing a whole new game. However, the difficulty spikes sharply in the later stages, requiring repeated practice on the same tracks, which can get repetitive and frustrating. Once you finish the story mode, the Grand Prix is where the real challenge begins. The overall comicbook art style almost zero realism on physics, so players accustomed to Forza Horizon or simulation-style games should consider this a headsup before buying. Reviews: 6/10

Twin stick drifting rules. Also, the only racing game i've played with a functional, non obtrusive rearview. good stuff

I was looking for a chill arcade racer to take my mind off the serious stuff and found this gem. All what I was looking was here: quick loading (I don't want to wait 5 minutes and scroll through a ton of menus when I want to jump to a quick session), accessible gameplay (I'm not a hardcore simulator racing dude), and relaxing atmosphere. I found all this and surprisingly more: the innovating twin-stick steer/drift mechanic is fun and interesting, easy to grasp at first and with pretty high skill ceiling, a very satisfying to learn and finally get that nasty double curve bend perfectly while drifting at a funny angle. The games more are pretty varied and game has a ton of content in a form of campaign, various modes, split screen racing, ton of tracks. Also the stylized aesthetic of the game is very nice and works great for this type of game. The only complaint I have, is the soundtrack is entirely forgettable, but it is easy to remedy (as I did) by just putting a funky 80s radio of your favorite streaming service and turning off in-game music entirely.

play it, suck at it, leave it for 6 months, come back, actually learn the game, become a god at the game, fall in love with the track design, the graphics and the vibe. Great game
