F64PGC2017: El Loco Challenge (Jammer/1mandivision)

Yup, both players can set custom names (up to 16 characters) and car paint. Remaining 3 AI players are spoofs of real rally guys (Lotus Esprit did that as well :P) and drive vehicles painted in three shades of grey

Hehe, good catch!

But, seriously, it's actually not quite possible, given sprite constraints. Take a look at first ingame screenshots to get the idea. I use 3x2 sprite matrix for player's car and because of that car looks ok straight but for turning phase proportions have to be a little screwed Car design is roughly based on rather bulky Bugatti Veyron but, obviously, I cannot advertise my game with this

Music theme from menu:

Due to many problems encountered and little time, I have to limit game to small preview with only one racing track available (out of planned 8). Code for championship mode is finished but it makes little sense with only one level to beat. Hence basic gameplay for competition preview is going to be only single race with simple summary afterwards. Tough luck but it's not over speaking of game development

I'll surely deliver any version to the compo deadline. Not that much content inside, though

Currently I don't even have properly working display of opponents' sprites. Race can be finished but it's a bit hard to pass drivers not knowing exactly which lane they occupy And sprites don't scale properly yet. What a bummer Honestly, I'd gladly abandon compo and finish commercial version of game at slower pace but I'll wait with this tough decision till the midnight.

Phew! Game submitted \o/

Not quite the version I'd like to show off but it's passable Multitude of visual bugs + serious bug with player ranks are, unfortunately, left in game but I have to fix it later. Opponents don't move left/right smoothly yet but I'm working on it - atm they just appear (actually their physics work properly but they're displayed in quite jumpy fashion). If opponent drives on left lane he's "teleported" to left side and vice versa - as silly as it gets xD

I've finally fixed/reworked counting places/positions for cars and now it should work flawless. A bit sad I didn't make it for pre-alpha build but well... better late than never

Could anyone test Pre-Alpha if it works with SD2IEC? Loader I'm using allegedly allows for one SD2IEC device attached at time. Is Jiffy DOS obligatory for SD2IEC? I'm total greenhorn, regarding the topic.
