Slot cars meets simulation racing. Master grip, timing, and race strategy using only throttle and brake. Push to the limit, outsmart rivals, and fight for every corner in intense wheel-to-wheel competition.
I played an obscene amount of the demo over the past month or so, this is an excellent F1 simulator.
This is a racing simulator where you don't steer. At first, this sounds like a crazy idea, but it *works*. Rather than focusing on maintaining the optimal racing line, you start thinking about braking zones, maximizing speed through corners, how aggressively...
I've played Throttle Trace for an hour so have only done a few races and hot laps. So far I'm impressed with the gameplay and feel of the cars. Looking forward some multiplayer races when the player base has grown. The game runs smooth as butter on my PC. If you like racing games and slot cars I think you will like this.
It's amazing how fun a racing game can be with only braking and throttle.
There's some things that could use some polishing, like the presentation; maybe some more fanfare before and after races.
Then there's some minor nitpicks, but understandable for an early access game. Nothing game breaking.
The core mechanic is solid, it's a lot of fun!
Spent a lot of time with the demo and wow this game took me by surprise. I was picturing an arcade-y racer with some light sim elements, I was NOT expecting my 10 year old to be enthusiastically working on his best lap time while I delve deep on tire wear, weather conditions, car customization and dirty air?!?!
Getting into the career mode now and I'm...
What a delightful little game!
It's very easy and very difficult at the same time, in a good way. The game starts coming to life in longer races, the default 5 minutes is way too short.
When the stints get longer, the challenge of keeping your tyres (and nerves) cool while putting out lap after lap at race pace while looking for that overtaking spot...
