GRAPHICS
I am a sucker for bright neon colors. I first came into existence during the sweltering summer of 83’ so a lot of my childhood was surrounded by neon colors. There is a reason why I still think the WWF’s Ultimate Warrior was the coolest looking pro wrestler look of all time, the dude was draped in neon from head to toe. The 1980’s was all brown furniture and neon t-shirts back then, and it was based as fuck.
GAMEPLAY
Gameplay wise it is okay, it plays similar to Rad Racer. You earn money from each race which is then put into upgrading your car parts, repairing damage to your car, adding fuel to your car, and being able to enter new races. I think the money system in the game is a bit overkill and becomes very tedious. I just want to race and upgrade my car parts every so often, and not have to spend 2 grand on repairs every few races.
SOUND
I realize not every racing soundtrack will have GOD TIER tunes like Burnout Revenge to get your blood pumping, but the “electronic 80’s music”or whatever the fuck it’s called, was just kind of okay.
OVERALL THOUGHTS
The game is a solid 3 out of 5. It took me a while to warm up to it because of the money grinding, but once your car isn’t a total piece of shit, you can start to have some fun. The neon colors are a true feast for the eyes, but wait until it’s on a deep discount.
