How it feels

A frenetic arcade racer where you must balance boost and health while dodging aerial attacks and outmaneuvering opponents to cross the finish line first.

What players say

Players call this a worthy F-Zero successor with fast arcade racing, but note the controls lack true analog input and the police enemies can feel chaotic. The game is tough and rewarding, with a robust track editor, though online multiplayer is still promised and some want more tracks.
