Gameplay

Race

Race is a fairly simple game where the player controls a car travelling on an infinite straight stretch of road. The player starts from a standstill, and can move the stick up to accelerate, down to decelerate, or right and left move the car sideways. Players attempt to drive as far as they can within two minutes, receiving a time penalty every time they crash into another car. If you ever slow to a stop then your car gets run over.

Spin-out

Spin-out is a two-player game, in which each player controls a car around a loop of racetrack. The winner is the one who completes three or fifteen laps the fastest, there are time penalties for crashing into a wall or spinning when hit by the other car.
