Ribbon Racer

Ribbon Racer is a racing game (wow!), where cars can be upgraded during the race. Magic boxes containing bonuses will be appearing in random places on track all the time! Those can be collected to improve your car capabilities, such as increased maximum speed and acceleration or additional energy points, which can be spend to use cars special powers. Thanks to the infinite renewal of the bonus boxes and unlimited number of laps (set by the player) we can come to a situation where our car will rip space at breakneck speed exceeding 500 kmph. Each car type has unique active power, passive ability and even ammunition type, which can be used to attack rivals. It is these elements, deviating from realism, and original, imaginative tracks that are the main strengths of this game. Because I'm not a specialist on computer networking, Ribbon Racer doesn't have multiplayer online mode. In return, it offers local multiplayer on split screen (or additional screens) for up to 4 players. In total, RR can handle up to 5 screens (in the case of a smaller number of players an extra screen acts as a map). To control your car you need only 6 keys.

At the moment, the game offers:

• 6 types of cars (5 can be chosen by the players, 1 is reserved for the AI)
• 5 special powers: turbo mode, flight mode, formation of stones, pool of ice, time slowing
• 19 diverse tracks (including, for example, "Tower Defence" track, where there are a lot of moving obstacles and traps, or a "Hobbit" track, where we go there and back again on the same road, so we have to watch out for cars coming from the opposite direction)
• 19 soundtracks (unique music for each track)
• 5 types of bonuses (not counting bonus traps)
• Team Racing mode to make team with other players and race together against AI opponents
• An option to create a Tournament - determined by the player set of tracks, connected by the overall score and the inability to change settings (selection of cars and the number of opponents) between routes.
