This feels like the alpha version of a game. Within the only 5 minutes of playing the game, I encountered the following:

- The game didn't start on the first attempt - after the intro screen the window stayed black. Had to kill the process and restart.
- When starting out, there's only one game mode, one car, and one "track" available. You have to collect items on some sort of open-world island to unlock even other race modes. The open-world collect-things game mode was not fun to me, but of course that's completely subjective.
- The controls are laughably bad. A small change in slope may suddenly jerk the car around. You will do lots of flips and crashes for no reason. It's almost impossible to consistently go where you're aiming.
- The physics are hilarious or terrible, depending on your point of view. The car will do multiple flips in one jump all the time for no reason. At one point after my car exploded on impact, I respawned like 100 meters in mid-air. Instead of falling down, I "fell" up for probably 200 more meters before falling back down. I was in mid-air for at least 30 seconds total before hitting the ground and exploding again. This happened within the first and only 5 minutes of playing this.
- I gave up on the game after about 5 minutes. When quitting, the process crashed, got stuck and I had to kill it again via task manager.

I like small casual games, but this one is ridiculously unfinished. Avoid.

You can reach a pretty solid level of precision with maxed out sensitivity & analog controls via a controller. Steam Input is wonderful here.

This is my experience exactly.
