Hi, I downloaded this to get used to working with open source software
I use Windows 7 on my laptop and experiance a few difficulties with windows 7 such as that ive been having problems with getting the sound to work. After looking it over I feel that it should be corrected so this will work.
Also in the race mode ive seen that when you stop the car, it seems to keep rolling forward. This happens unless the break is constantly pressed down. Also continuing with the race mode ive noticed that the road surface is fuzzy and makes it hard to see the road markings.
When it comes to controls I have to say that they feel very loose and you have to keep the arrow keys pressed down for quite a while in order to move the car significantly. Also the breaks are very weak and dont slow the car down. It can take a lot of getting used too in order to get around the track in one piece.
Aswell as this I would have to reccoment that a reverse gear be installed. As the controls are hard to use, there are a lot of crashed and a reverse gear would be greatly appreciated.
In term of the games appearance Id say that it is quite dull and just needs some images and animations to spice it up although I cannot say what the music is like if there is any as my OS does not allow me to hear it.
The car is also very plain and although you can select your own colour which is very good, the car just needs more detail and attention. Other than the colour it is plain and does not look very realistic.
In terms of running, it runs very smoothly and installs and loads very quickly. it does not have any glitches or pauses in the game that I have found. Althouh more tracks need to be added.
Overall I think this is a good game and with some more variety added to it and more details fixed, it could become a very good racing game.
