About this game
Highway Junkie is a racing game about crazy driving on open highway.
Rules:
For 5 minutes drive as far as you can. Every meter gives you +1 point. End result multiplied by experience factor, that depends on difficulty level.
The damage is deducted from the total count. The race ends if you break the car or run out of time. Get as many points as possible!
There are 4 different types of physics\difficulty level:
1) Arcade
Do you remember the "racing" on tetris? That's it, but only with better graphics.
2) Semi-Arcade
Car is under control, however, you should keep your eyes on road.
3) Semi-Realistic
You should have some kind of experience, concentration and accuracy. But, in general, the steering system will not allow you to make a mistake.
4) Realistic
Only for experienced racers. It is recommended to use analog steering (mouse or steering wheel).
