The catalog in 3D
The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels
A simple-to-pick-up, hard-to-master futuristic racer where momentum and wall-grinding skill create fast arcade thrills.

About
Released under the casual "Halfbrick Fridays" lineup, Rocket Racing is a simple futuristic racing game where you control rocket ships in a 2D arena. Created as a simple to play, hard to master game with three controls: turn right, turn left, and go forward. Depth comes with the unique way in which your acceleration is controlled by pushing off walls, known ingame as a "Grind". Combine your grind with special boost panels and plan your trips around or through the disruptive cutout zones placed around most levels to aim for record times. Dynamic situations are made with the many courses available across the game's 6-tier campaign mode. In it, you'll be tasked to fulfill several conditions to proceed, each ending with a multi-race Grand Prix.
