Excellent game, can't believe it's just two bucks. I second the idea that the graphics be used for a traditional Virtua Racing-esque game. Keep up the good work. Oh, and: Aussie Aussie Aussie!…

Once you get past the hard learning curve, this game is a blast. I haven't lost track of time while just trying a game out in a long while. This is a must own for every iphone. Seriously, its NOT THAT difficult as people have been saying. After about an hour, anybody should be able to pick it up. Give it a chance. The Hard tracks are freaking amazing once you learn how to REALLY USE the controls in your favor, and overall this game is a rush to play. Nobody else has mentioned that this game has an awesome replay feature once you complete a track, this is a really sweat reward after spending an hour mastering a track…. This game is very similar to that awesome game "Grip Shift" from the X360 arcade/PSP in my opinion. I do wish that in a future update car shadows for under the car (once air born) as well as a speedometer were added… A custom track editor might be pushing it… great job true Axis.

This is my favorite game on the iPhone and I have been a iGamer since the beginning. Check out my stats. Im xsn0w in Open feint too. I have a top 3 in the world. This is a very challenging, very well made game. 6 out of 5 stars

I really like the game. As mentioned (at least in the podcast) I blame myself whenever I fail, which means I keep trying.

But I am surprised apparently nobody has mentioned Mirror's Edge (the DLC levels) as the obvious inspiration for the game or level art.

This game is brilliant, but it definitely has the old-fashioned "annoy the hell out of you, but you keep trying" feel. In a good way.

Tough game, but well-designed and a lot of fun.

Once again, another great suggestion for Touch Arcade!

Just to clear up any confusion that some people might have had about retrys in Platforming mode …

- A retry will take you back to the previous check point.
- Everytime you start or restart a track, the number of retrys is set to zero. You can attempt a track as many times as you like.
- If you complete 4/5 tracks in 10 retrys you can unlock a new difficulty.
- If you you take more then 10 retrys to complete a track, you can restart with zero retrys.

Great design but the game is way too difficult. I did not even make it through the learning levels (there's a 10 retries limit). Map design should be a bit more forgiving.

In my case, even silent mode doesn't work. I have to always use the headphone. Hopefully this gets fixed soon.

I'll have to check out the tutorial, but a help window would be useful. For example, I did not know you could change the tilt/pitch while the car is airborne.

In any case, great game!

The level of the sun and clouds should also help in lieu of a directly cast shadow.
