Race Time

175 votes

When you're racing you'll have the best chance if you're in a car (unless you have access to some top-secret speed vehicle) and that's what you'll need for Race Time. This is the chance to compete in some street races on the cleanest and most direct streets in the world. That still doesn't mean that they're safe though because the the organizers have littered them with tons of obstacles to test your driving skills. As long as you keep the car safe and avoid danger, then you will eventually make it to the head of the pack to cross that finish line first.

About Race Time

We never really know when it's time to race but there's usually a time and place for it with elements to indicate where we should go. This game gives you both things and you'll find yourself on the track sooner than expected. You'll soon be driving and encountering all the things that can kill your speed. Well, maybe not all the things, but certainly well-known things that you'll need to evade. You can't win if you keep crashing, so it's all about staying on track and intact. That way you can at least finish a race and get some points for that.

How to Play

Race Time is a 2D top-down racing game where you're street-racing to climb the ranks using the keyboard. The A and D keys are used to move the key left and right respectively, while the S key is used to activate the boost once the meter at the bottom fills to level 5. You can also press the W to try and get power-up offers when they appear. The goal is to win races to earn money and become the best racer. No matter how you do in a race, you can keep trying it again until you're satisfied.

The main menu gives you the chance to check the current rankings and to visit the car shop. This is where you can spend your winnings and any cogs you've collected to buy new cars or upgrade the cars that you own. Once you've got your car all set, you can enter the race. You'll always start at the very back of a narrow road. After the race starts, your car will start accelerating and you simply need to steer it to collect parts and hit boosts to gain speed. You also need to steer to avoid obstacles like barricades and other cars.

When you're able to activate your boost meter, you can use the speed to knock other cars off the road. As you pass cars, you'll move up your position, and the better you finish, the more you earn and the higher you climb in the rankings.

Tips and Tricks

This is the kind of racing game where you just need to worry about keeping your car in shape. The speed will build over time and you can help it by avoiding crashes and hitting as many boosts as possible. Early on, it's better to prioritize gathering cogs so that you can make improvements to your car.
