Road Fighter reviews and comments
It's fun. You play as a red car (not Cars, mind you) and you're just trying to survive, I think. Everyone is out there to kill you, including Superman himself, and he'll do it by spooking you into crashing your car! Ah, Superman.
There are many times in which I think to myself "The hell? Where's their love for life?" and then I realize, it's called Road Fighter for a reason, so it makes sense they're not trying to give you hugs and kisses.
For some reason the checkpoint system doesn't actually work as a checkpoint, and if you lose you start from the very beginning which is pretty annoying. At least exploding our car only makes us lose fuel. Wait, what?
Overall, rating out of 100:
Story: 0
None given, by context it seems we are Road Fighters (TM) and we got a sticker on our car that says: "Kill me please".
Gameplay: 20
It's good, I like going fast and the car goes a whopping 400 km/h. Logically, it spins a lot when hit with another car. Though, I'm just surprised it doesn't explode on impact.
Graphics: 10
Not groundbreaking by any means, but it's pleasant.
Sound/Music: 5
There's no music as far as I know, but the sounds are okay. Sometimes thou- AAAAAAHHHHHHH SUPERMAN WHAT THE F-
That leaves the game with a furious 35 out of 400! Who keeps leaving oil on the road? Don't they know that's dangerous?
