This was fun! I ended up playing the steam version for steam controller support, it worked well with the steam controller but I did get a bunch of achievements I shouldn’t have?
Controls were good. I did normal, reverse, and mirror modes with 10 laps each and had a blast. 16 player matches are chaotic and so much fun, you can lead the pack for a solid 30s and then die and suddenly be thrown into the deadly messy middle. The splatters are really nice and make the crash cams a bit more colorful. The art style all around is really good, a few more characters and courses (and online multiplayer 😅) would turn this into a solid online game night.
I frequently felt like the track around the “dining: area was too nice, I’d rub along invisible walls without much care for speed. I’m not sure if the map is supposed to feel punishing like that, but I did feel like I had to try for the powerups I wanted because of how they spawned. I’m mostly looking for more reasons to crash because I think the animation is fantastic 🤣
