About this game
Race! Then Retry... Is a challenging arcade styled racing game where every track feels like a puzzle, you race the clock and try to survive on over 30 unique tracks with different attributes, obstacles and massive jumps, unlock various different vehicles and try to set the best times possible.
Tracks
Each track is carefully crafted - some much shorter than others making sure each one is treated as its own boss battle. You need to learn their layout, figure out the best way to traverse the obstacles, bends and jumps to get to the end, and once you've got the layout down, you can try to hunt for the best time.
Obstacles
Tracks might be less obstacle heavy leaving you with only the corners and jumps to look out for. Or they might contain obstacles - stationary, moving or both, making sure you focus on not just your steering accuracy but your timing as well.
Vehicles
There are various different vehicles that you can unlock using rewards from each of the levels you complete. Each vehicle has different characteristics, like speed, handling, in air control, off roading ability etc.. You'll have to unlock each one to figure out which suits the challenge ahead of you best.
What it is not
Race! Then Retry... is not intended to be physically accurate, the handing is intentionally made to be more drifty and arcade like in style. You will need to learn how each car handles to get the most out of it.
