web racing prototype

We started work on a new racing engine. We would really like anyone that plays the demo to report back on if the demo runs in their browser and any other technical or critical comments. Thanks.

like it - love the spin-out when you’ve been over the grass.

That was great, I was instantly having fun. For the heck of it I turned around and drove backwards. Head-on collision with another car was great! During the collision I saw through the ground a little bit though so you might want to adjust the clipping.

Interesting enjoyable and fun. Hard to turn just right.

The camera damping is set a little too high. On the tightest corner I can’t see where I’m going.

Also it looks like the car turnspeed is the same on all speeds… I can do the hairpin about as easy on fullspeed as on slowspeed. That doesn’t feel right.

Good luck with it!

Controls are excellent, one of the best I’ve had in a while.

It freezes for a second or so at certain points or times, no idea what’s going on there. Also, I managed to crash into the corner so that the car was stuck in the ground, see attached screenshot.

The camera is a bit too rough, a little smoothing would go a long way.

But that’s more criticism than is justified. Excellent demo, great driving feeling.
