Pico Racer is a pseudo 3D racing game that pays tribute to 1980s arcade driving games such as Pole Position, OutRun, Buggy Boy and so on. I wrote it in a week (give or take a few days) for Pico-8. The game includes three different continents (read: background graphics), night levels and obstacles.
Here are some technical details about the game
So far, people have said nice things about it, considering it’s just a test run:
- Featured in Pocket C.H.I.P. promo videos
- Relive Your Youth With Pole Position Inspired Pico Racer (nichegamer.com)
- “Excellent speed is fast and crazy, done with not so many graphics on Pico-8 but still, wow, yes, cars.” – rockpapershotgun.com
