Hydroplane: Riptide Racers

I'd like to see more variety in the powerups, but its a lot of fun!

Runs well on low-power PCs. Customization and interesting tracks!

I have really enjoyed playing HRR. There's a nice variety of tracks with some interesting variations and I am personally a fan of the game's aesthetic. Definitely worth a shot.

Simplicity is this one's strenght. You pick 3 items and 3 parts that make up your plane's stats and hit the waves! No story, not even sounds. The music is pleasant however and the cubeworld look envokes a feeling of nostalgia. What else? The controls are super simple, you accelerate, steer, use your item and drift. Your drift quickly fills a little bar that boosts you when you let go. The tracks are the only thing in this game that can throw you off as it is possible to take a wrong turn and end up in a dead end but it's easy to make up for such a mistake if you get the boost down. It's the kind of game I would enjoy playing on the go on my phone so if a mobile port drops someday, let me know alright?

this game "so totally rocks squirt. fin. knoggin. duuuuuuude" But on a serious note, I love this game, the only complaints is that it seems like every time I get hit by a rocket, there is IMMEDIATELY 2 more afterwards. Maybe I am just getting unlucky. And then sometimes it seems like the other racers just disappear at some point in the race and I just do not see any other racers, no matter what placement I am in. But I love just racing around and trying to drift, and using the big boost item!

Hydroplane: Riptide Racers is a cool racing game with lots of tracks. The controls are very smooth. I find this game very relaxing to play. I would recommend this game to anyone and everyone.

great music, and map design very fun game all around!

I genuinely adore this game. It has its rough edges and issues. However, you can really tell it had some real effort put into by someone who is passionate about making games for people to play. I definitely recommend picking this up and trying to get first place in all the different racing series. its much more difficult than i would have expected. The AI are ruthless with missiles. Genuinely fun game with character and charm

Love this game, the only 2 things that seemed weird to me was that items overwrite the items you already have, so you cannot hold onto an item/ability that you want to, and that you cannot look backwards! Besides that I love the game, I love the customization, and I think that it is simple but in a good way. Its a fun game, the physics are fun to mess with, and I enjoy all of the different courses!

HRR is a straightforward, smooth arcade racer, and one which I've enjoyed playing! In terms of content, the game is simple and easy to pick up. Once you get a handle of the way the game play rewards calculated drifts and well-timed power-up uses, you just forget how well it's all executed in the first place. Each track and setting feels unique. As you figure out which parts you want to have and which items you want to equip per map, its easy to get caught up in chasing the perfect drift, the smoothest turn, and the feeling of winning against relatively balanced NPC racers. As I understand it, HRR is Flaming Monkey Studios' first game and they're a solo developer too. Few devs can pull off a game that easily captures your inner-racer like this, and even less can boast that their first game has with few to no performance issues. I highly recommend giving this game a try!
