Game description:

Exciting top-down racer that harkens back to the old video games that y'all probably played in the 90's. This happens to be one of my competition entries for 05.
The game is set in the late 90's, in Japan, and you- the player - has decided to take up racing.
How far can that old, beat up Corolla take you? Trade it in for a fancy new RX-7? Or keep it and make it the quickest little hatchback in town?
The game features very minimalistic, handheld-esque retro graphics, surprising depth, and enough racing action to get your palms sweaty. You can upgrade your cars, etc.

No, there will NOT be weapons or any other stupid gimmicks that I don't want mixed into my racing. This game is not forgiving and it's definitely for those who're pretty experienced.

My only tip is that you save often. Real often. A wrecked car can ruin your career.
CONTROLS:
Arrow keys will accelerate, brake and steer. Space is for boost, P is for pause. It's all real simple.
