Highway Racer

Highway Racer is an extremely simple game concept that allows exploring the basic components and features of a new game engine without allowing details of game design to distract from the purpose of exploring the new engine and work-flows. The downloads in this are created in 3 to 5 hours as a first look with brute force learning and some google.

This is provided as a way to support Tim Beaudet's Indie Adventure and give you access to the source code and raw files used to create the game for only a $1.  Due to the nature of exploring new technology the code is unlikely to be 'the best' approach for a given engine, it was just the first and quickest route I found to get it working. I didn't spend lots of time reading and learning the engine prior to building the game so it is unlikely to be how a developer competent with the engine of choice would approach the problem.

NOTE: Scores cannot be compared between the different versions/engines as balanced gameplay was not the aim of the project, exploring engines and workflows is.
