It even drifts. Which is a good thing. Why is drifting a good thing you may ask? Because it's the only way you'll survive Akina Pass. Actually... you probably won't make it past the first corner. Information Seller:Amirali Rajan Genre:Racing, Simulation Release:May 29, 2022 Updated:Sep 04, 2023 Version:19.2 Size:34.9 MB TouchArcade Rating:Unrated User Rating:Unrated Your Rating:unrated Compatibility:HD Universal Subscribe to the TouchArcade YouTube channel Anotherkellydown Moderator Staff Member Patreon Bronze Feb 10, 2014 4,384 1,030 113 Male CAD Technician I Upstate NY https://youtube.com/channel/UCcvu9xhE7xT-mZrXUZQJr5g #2 Anotherkellydown, May 31, 2022 I’m interested to hear some impressions, as this doesn’t look like much. But it’s by the dev behind A Dark Room and A Noble Circle so there may be more here than the screenshots can convey. Stronsay Well-Known Member Aug 6, 2015 938 197 43 #3 Stronsay, Jun 1, 2022 I did get this in view of the dev’s pedigree and his challenge in the description...”you probably won’t make it past the first corner”…which was correct; so the title is somewhat misleading. It should be called ‘A Car That Doesn’t Turn’. Steering and drifting controls are hyper-sensitive and very difficult, which I guess is the whole point. However, if you like to do six impossible things before breakfast it’s a great place to start. I think what makes A Car That Turns (sic) compulsive is the speed of reloading. Every crash prompts an instant reload and continue from the last checkpoint - zero waiting time reduces the frustration of inevitable failure. Spolier - eventually made it round the first corner resulting in much merriment. Anotherkellydown likes this.

And I think it shows in all following releases. He‘s getting a little too much credit in my eyes. Anotherkellydown and Stronsay like this. Stronsay Well-Known Member Aug 6, 2015 938 197 43 #5 Stronsay, Jun 1, 2022 Actually completed a whole lap! Never thought that would happen. Took 528.03 seconds and about 50 saves and restarts. Not so bad once I got the drift. Turn into corners early, especially hairpins. Feeling a great sense of achievement. Anotherkellydown likes this. (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
