We don't have permission to distribute the music separately from game, but I guess if the game's successful, the band will consider releasing the track. You could always ask them - they have a MySpace page
I'm on the 13th map now Almost at the end. I love the variation in weather effects - the sunsets are brilliant. So you are going to be updating this game?
Free Camera So, here's the thing that will make you like the game alot more! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Kv7Vcv9c2Y guess how I activated it! (Beta Testers, keep quiet! ) and here are the screenshots that I made while using the free camera: I'll post the video on how to activate it soon, so start guessing!
Win all races in first pos? Give us a clue - is it unlocked by an achievement, or is there some other way?
The camera is pretty obscure to access, I don't think it's remotely possible to access it by accident... Hit the pause button in game or in a replay. Ignore the actual menu. Hold two fingers anywhere on the screen. Hold the top left corner with a third touch. Hold the device upside down or give it a firm vertical shake. The menu disappears and you are in Free-Cam mode. There are no visible controls as it was designed for taking screen shots. The invisible controls are: Bottom corners - zoom in and out. Top right - back to pause menu. Top left - toggle replay (only if in replay mode) Left half of screen - move left, right, in, out. Right half - look Left, right, up, down. The main controls are sort of like an FPS. Note that there is no collision and it's possible to get into very confusing places but it's always possible to go back to the pause menu by tapping the top right corner. This mode also gives a few clues to the kind of tricks the graphic engine is using to keep the frame rate up.
Wow, that's one hell of an awkward way to get into the camera mode! But I eventually got there. It's made the graphic engine look even more impressive - the way you can zoom in long distance and it loads the texture detail. Thanks for telling us
You're right - it's pretty awkward! The free cam was put it to allow us to take cool screenshots but the TA beta testers enjoyed it and also found it useful for checking out the levels & finding shortcuts etc. So, initially, there was no plan to include it in the actual game, but we kind of got used to using it. Also, we were a bit worried about how inclusion of this type of easter egg might affect the approval process but at the last minute, decided to risk it & let Apple know. The reason why accessing it is so convulated is because Glenn found it amusing to confuse the beta testing team. Warped? Yes probably
Really enjoyed the game and still play it now even though I finished with my review. Hopefully the updates to come will fix some of the problems I had, but certainly a good effort
heres a vid of an R/C ground effect vehicle I made last year. http://axonracing.com/ultrafoil3.wmv it was a little tricky to control, but it worked ok.
I've just seen this review from a Russian site. Bearing in mind I don't actually understand Russian, I had to translate it using Google. But I'm still none the wiser! Who the hell is Mike? Any clues gratefully received Read it it in English here
