Review by Eric_Love all reviews by Eric_Love

This is a tidy top-down racing game. You race your small car sideways against a few other such cars, hoping to pick up the speed bonuses on the way.

It\'s hard to keep your car on the road when the track zigzags (though the opponents manage it with no trouble) and once you\'re on the grass it\'s very slow going. It would have been a bit more playable if the grass doesn\'t slow you down too much. Also, if you weren\'t forced forwards all the time and were able to steer around the full 360 degrees without the screen wanting to scroll ahead, that would make it easier to handle the zigzags.

The balance is good - after many unsuccessful races I won by under 50 pixels!

The title screen is perhaps the best of all the entries, and fulfils the sine wave, parody and troll rules all by itself. I didn\'t find any readme, so I don\'t know about any unlockable item (I must admit my game didn\'t have one either as I misread the rules).
