Distance

I first heard about Distance from a review on YT. The guy (I forget who) did a great job selling how good the game was to me. Now that I've finally got around to playing it for myself, this is definitely one of the better indie racing games I've ever played. I personally prefer using a controller for these type of games rather than the keyboard for ease-of-use. Now, the game itself: On the surface, Distance is a fairly straightforward Sci-Fi themed racing game. Drive, boost, dodge obstacles, perform air tricks, occasionally fly around with Wing-mode. What separates Distance from other racers is 1) The environment, 2) The story, and 3) How both of these work together. I never previously considered that one could expertly combine the Racing genre with semi-horror/semi-thriller elements, moreso keep me invested despite that I'm not a horror seeker myself. You can clearly see how Distance is artistically inspired by Tron, but in Campaign mode, you're quickly thrusted into a race against the clock while simultaneously racing against an "evil" entity trying to stop you. The game makes good use of the environment by utilizing dark shadows, haunting soundtrack, and very little monologuing, essentially getting the player to piece together the story on their own with the help of the occasional exposition dump by the automated voice who gradually reveals more as you progress. Distance is a great example of the concept, "Show, don't tell," in Racing format. But if you're looking for a quick race to pass the time, don't worry, they have that covered too. Head to Arcade mode for quick races, stunts, and one or two other modes to boot. Looking forward to checking out the other two Campaigns.

Parkour car!

scuffed controller support. other than that, fun game

fun game a bit dificult at points but i enjoy it

Controller support is messed up and it didn't take long to get to the point where you really need to not be playing this on a keyboard. Loved everything else but can't recommend a game I cant play

el juego posee ciertas mecanicas de conduccion como el sobrecalentamiento, el salto o el vuelo que pueden añadir retos interesantes y una sensacion de rejugabilidad al querer mejorar tu tiempo, pero el juego depende mucho del fandom de acceleracers (yo incluido) para ser relevante mas que por merito propio, su ambientacion y subtrama propia es interesante, pero acaba inconclusa sin un final, y el unico objetivo en los modos de juego es simplemente hacer records de tiempo. solo recomiendo el juego si te llaman la atencion las mecanicas, si eres MUY fan de acceleracers, o si esta en oferta.

Приятная игра, рекомендую!

I thought I wasn't bad at the game after beating the first Aventure campaign Realizing now that I'm slow af Really good game, cool atmosphere and fun to learn. 21€ seems a bit steep though, I may be wrong because there's 2 more campaigns.

Distance é uma experiência única que combina velocidade, precisão e atmosfera de forma brilhante. Com uma jogabilidade fluida e desafiadora, o jogo consegue unir corrida, plataforma e obstáculos em um cenário futurista cheio de personalidade. A trilha sonora eletrônica e os efeitos visuais criam uma imersão incrível, tornando cada fase uma experiência empolgante. Além disso, a variedade de desafios e a curva de aprendizado bem equilibrada mantêm o jogador motivado a melhorar seu desempenho a cada tentativa. Para quem gosta de jogos que exigem reflexos rápidos, habilidade e oferecem uma sensação constante de superação, Distance é uma excelente escolha. Um título criativo, divertido e viciante que merece muito mais reconhecimento. Recomendo!

This game was a rather quick in-&-out beat,. but it was really enjoyable! I'll probably come back to this game in a few months just to replay the campaign again, and even still the community maps, challenges, and random trackmaker add even more infinite content.
