Thanks for that. Was looking for some comparisons with Repulze - already legend status in that. But I'm looking for something new and this looks like it.
I'm a real idiot. This week I complained that it was a 'bad week' for releases. Well, the first list TA came up with didn't interest me but as it turns out this has been my most expensive week in years!!. Yes, this beats the pants of Repulze except Repulze has fights so that keeps them level pegging. But they are two different games and I enjoy,both but this is so awesome. Please no more great games this week.
The game is awesome but the HUD is a bit annoying. It should be optional or reduced to display just the tilt angle. Who needs that big speed indicator just in front of your face? Is very very distracting.
If you like Repulze then this one is a no-brainer. Repulze is a great game, but this takes it to a whole new level. I still have difficulty with the controls in Repulze, no such issues here. Tilt control is uber-precise, especially once you upgrade the handling. And the graphics are just unbelievable. AG Drive is also a lot more straight forward than Repulze- no polarity gates, no combat, just super fast anti gravity racing. There are a bunch of different race types though- standard races, cups, time trials, speed runs, distance runs, score grabs, etc... Plenty of variety to keep you engaged. If that's what you're looking for, then you're going to love this bad boy.
Lol, told ya bro. I think it's the most important ship attribute. Clean running is paramount in any racing series. Cheers bro
I don't find the center HUD quite as distracting as others here, but I do think a transparency slider would be great. I actually think part of what makes the tilt controls work so flawlessly is that little arrow on the HUD - it makes it much easier to gauge how much you are tilting and stuff.
Just bought and downloading now. $4 is steep, this better be at least as good as the venti triple shot latte I passed on in order to be able to afford this! (Yes, that's a joke's)
I also find the tilt gauge useful, but not the speed indicator part. If only the tilt gauge were there it wouldn't block the view as much. Also making it more transparent might help.
See folks, this is why you shouldn't be so quick to judge something. Of course the crappiest ship available in the game is gonna control like crap without upgrades! IT'S.NOT.THE.CONTROLS!
