Is a small casual racer game that came from the Molyjam 2012 (videogames created based in some guy twitts)
In this racer game, you do not control the car, and you are not the driver: YOU ARE THE ROAD.
So, just PLAY YOU ARE THE ROAD HERE and have some pure fast chaotic physic explosion cute car alternative fun. "Alternative", because this game is based on an alternative way of thinking, like the "lateral thinking" way of thinking.
"Lateral thinking is solving problems through an indirect and creative approach, using reasoning that is not immediately obvious and involving ideas that may not be obtainable by using only traditional step-by-step logic." (says wikipedia)
The graphics and physics reminds me of an old super fun game called IGNITION.
Amazing game with awesome rock with hard bass music, awesome adventurous landscaping, cute 3d modeled cars, and the heavy use of a nitro that re-feels itself in a few seconds. I had my best time playing this in co-op with double or triple screen. That games deserves a hole article! BUT! this game does not have what YOU ARE THE ROAD has, and that's knowing how the cars are feeling...
YES! the game tells you how the cars(not the drivers because i don't saw any) are feeling and that makes you feel things man. I think they are 3(that i cant think of) different ways to play this game. One is trying to make the cars blow up as fast as you can, i don't like this one. Another one is to try to get all the cars alive as much as you can, because with you mouse movement you make the road that comes and the cars responds automatically to that movement, you can make them crazy as caca.
The other way is trying to make the best stunts!
That of course can came up wroung...
This reminds me of another old game that I bought with the paper once, it was called "El País" and talked about whats happening in Uruguay today.... and the game was called BIG RED RACING , a 90's game that i think it looks awesome almost not textured and it was great for making stunts! i loved to do that with my friend Dieguito, ha ha, we had fun playing videogames all the time, I think i have to give him a call someday. Oh this game lets you save a replay of all the race and watch it in different angles, amazing. Now Im thinking of
Carmaggedon 2 but I need to sleep couse i have work tomorrow making something for an augmented reality and some banner with my gfriend.
So, lots of fun with cars.
PLAY YOU ARE THE ROAD, and don't forget to click the left mouse to add some more chaos!
Crazy as caca xD!!!
ResponderEliminarThat game is not only fun but also superinteresting, reminds me of that weird feeling of being GOD in the game "From Dust", where the creatures you take care of have free will, but you change the environment and the stuff around them...
Fun post, keep on!
