Krautscape
About
Krautscape is an action-packed racing game with bird-like flying cars and procedurally built racetracks. The leading player builds the racetrack while the chasing players can take shortcuts by flying off the track to overcome obstacles. But the track is needed to score and to get speed – the vehicles don't have any thrusters to accelerate while flying.
Krautscape features three unique multiplayer gamemodes that are designed to support nonlinear gameplay and intelligent movement instead of forcing you to drive perfectly. Three singleplayer game modes introduce you to the basic mechanics of driving, flying and track building.Key Features

The Game is boring, because the diversity in it is zero! Usually I try to support such projects, but here I did not zdrodmy discontent. The Levels differ only in structure, the background is the only one. The Game COULD be quite good, but the developer apparently threw it, and shot his offspring, putting the curve Control (but it is not scary), terrible soundtrack and considered that the variety of games do not need! I would even for the sake of Achivok to pass this game!
It is totally not worth the money! Thank you for your attention!

Early Access Review On the Game, I like the novel Game principle as well as the rather minimalist Graphics. The Sound is good, too. Especially for two, it's a lot of Fun (after understanding the Game principle, but isn't all too hard).
During Driving, you build the Track towards the Destination, how the Track develops, whether straight, to The side or sharply to the Side depends on which position or color you drive through the Tunnels. It is interesting to note that you drive the Route several times and can thus partially incorporate advantages, in which, for example, you simply leave out a large Loop and fly directly from the Beginning of the Loop to the End.
With another Modem, you have to fly through small Portals in the Sky and pick up a Cube without which you can't build the track any further.
I hope the Developers stay Tuned and there are other Game models to Come as well as online Multiplayer (what I think is already present in the Basic Framework only the Servers are empty).
Nevertheless 8/10 from me, solely because Of graphics and Game principle:-)

If you want to know what Loneliness feels like, you can play a multiplayer game. Alone. The only one in the World. Krautscape offers this Possibility. That's a shame, actually. Because the indie racer is pretty cool and based on an ingenently idea. The Route is only created when Driving. The Course is determined by the Player. Loopings, Jumps and quite bad Curves can be built. You then have to drive through this as quickly and skillfully as possible. Or fly. Which is also great Fun. In any Case, you often don't know for yourself what's next. So In many Ways, Krautscape reminds the infinitely more popular Trackmania. Only with much more beautiful Graphic Design.
Krautscape ultimately has everything a great Game needs. Good Basic Idea. Beautiful Graphic. Matching Sound. Easy to learn. Hard to master. The Controls (with Keyboard) could be a bit more precise. The Single-plyer part, in which a few Challenges to practice can now be overcome, of course does not tie up for more than half an Hour. Everything is designed for Multiplayer. I imagine It quite fun if it wasn't a Single Player for Lack of Fellow Players. Too stupid. Too bad. To Indie.
