Ocean Drive Challenge Remastered

Joguete de corrida vindo da Xbox Live Arcade parecido com o Out Run, clássico da Sega dos anos 80. Aqui vc deve atravessar a cidade desviando do tráfego e passando por sete pistas diferentes, interligadas por checkpoints. O cronômetro é o seu adversário. Para uma compreensão melhor dos BRs: é um tipo de Top Gear, só que sem combustível e sem um Rival. [b]Ocean Drive Challenge Remastered[/b] é muito arcade, então não espere por um simulador realista. A jogabilidade é bem gostosinha pra galera que curte uma experiência mais retrô. Os gráficos são simples, mas bons. Existem três personagens selecionáveis que soltam frases diferentes durante as corridas e possuem carros com características distintas. As músicas são poucas, mas bacaninhas. Você pode escolher com qual delas quer começar a partida. O jogo é curto, portanto o fator replay fica por conta dos três diferentes personagens e das conquistas que vc pode tentar pegar. Pode não ser nada espetacular como [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/389140/Horizon_Chase_Turbo/]Horizon Chase Turbo[/url], mas te garanto que [b]Ocean Drive Challenge Remastered[/b] é bem divertido. Recomendo!

At first i thought meeeh.. As frustrating as the old games.. But then it became as addictive as those old games too..

De game op zich is erg leuk maar veel te kort, als je de race uitrijdt dan ben je na amper 10 tot max 15 minuten uitgespeeld, tenzij je de andere piloten ook wil kiezen dan komen we aan maximum 45'. De drie verschillende racers hebben elk hun eigen blitse bolide en een eigen verhaal waarom ze aan die race deelnemen. Aan de hand van tekst ballonnetjes krijg je tijdens de race hun verhaal te lezen, gelukkig kan je deze wel afzetten want het belemmert voor 1 sec je zicht en vergezeld van een lastige beep sound. De geluidseffecten zijn niet slecht maar dateren samen met de graphics uit lang vervlogen tijden op de arcade kasten. Ook de muziek is erg beperkt, slechts 3, doch uitstekende nummers (waarvan twee techhouse) al had ik er wel graag nog een stuk of 6 extra beukende techno of techhouse nummerkes bij gehad. Hopelijk komt er daar verandering in samen met nog meerdere wedstrijden in andere omgevingen. Enfin, enkel voor de pure nostalgische arcade gamers !

Nice retro game feeling with flashy music. You get the awesome arcade feeling at home. Overall a good port/remaster of the Xbox Live Arcade Game.

Ocean Drive Challenge was a halfway decent OutRun clone that came out of Microsoft's long-defunct XBLIG program. It finally resurfaced on Steam a while ago, but now suffers from stuttering issues that are all too common in many Unity projects. If you value buttery smooth frame rates in racing games, you're not going to get that here, unfortunately.

This game is actually pretty good. There's not a whole lot to it, and honestly it's a port from the XBL-Indie game line-up that got axed years ago. A one-dude studio. It's just a simple Outrun clone with an 80's-ish aesthetic. There isn't really much as far as a story goes and what little is there is pretty absurd. I'm not sure if that was intentional or not but either way I like it. Though there isn't much written dialogue, there are spelling mistakes throughout. Not an issue for me, but to some it could be a gripe I guess. The game only contains a few synthwave-ey tracks, which work and sound okay but grow old quickly. There are recycled assets, some minor graphical glitches during certain sections of the race, and the annoying fact that you can get hung up on the "wall"(edge of the screen), especially going through tunnels, which can get frustrating as it can slow you down and cause you to lose precious seconds needed to reach the checkpoint. None of those issues are anything game-breaking though and it's all worth it because once you taken a few runs and start getting in the groove of the traffic and getting a feel for the steering, it suddenly clicks. At first it seems like there's WAY too much traffic. Like, "ruining the game" traffic. Once you get the feel of the controls and the handling though, you begin to be able to manage that traffic a lot better, and soon you're weaving in and out of impossibly packed corners with ease. Swerving between tight clumps of vehicles that are all moving at different speeds, and rarely even scratching your paint. You start to realize that the game is really about avoiding other cars, and it's actually pretty damn fun. The hit-boxes are just forgiving enough to make you feel like a bad-ass without making you feel like you're driving with an invincibility star activated. It feels really good. So good that I wish there was more to it. No meat and potatoes though. Just a value meal. There are 3 characters, each with their own slightly incoherent "story", which is really just some small lines of dialogue that read out chronologically across the top of the screen at certain points throughout the race in the form of speech bubbles. The same every time. Corny but amusing, and honestly it's just a small extra that didn't really need to be there anyway and I actually enjoyed it, so I'm not complaining. I think if it were a little better localized it would make more sense but there seems to be a bit of a translation gap. The writing on the screen can be toggled on or off which is a nice little touch since once you've completed a character's story and have read what they have to say, there really isn't a need to have it play out again and take up space on the screen. Just like in Outrun you have to make it to each checkpoint to continue to on through the next section, which changes the scenery and look of the area. There are no branching paths to choose from while making your way to the end. To "win" the race you must simply make it to the end of the last section. There are no other cars to race against. Just a steady flow of traffic, narrow tunnels and tight corners hindering your path to success. Ocean Drive Challenge will definitely scratch the Outrun itch for anyone looking to do so, or anyone who can enjoy a little arcade racer with tight controls and a small entry fee. This game is obscure and buried on Steam so waiting around for it to go on sale may be an exercise in futility. To me it was worth the 6 bucks.

Ocean Drive Challenge Remastered é um game de corrida arcade inspirado em Out Run da década de 80. Porém as semelhanças param por aí. Portado dos celulares, os gráficos são bem simples, a arte parece apenas um "papel de parede", o carro possui um tamanho desproporcional ao tamanho da pista. A IA dos carros é fraca e só atrapalha pois ficam 2 carros lentos fechando a pista obrigando a você bater seu carro e ou parar fora da pista. A sensação de velocidade é boa e sobre as músicas in game apenas uma é de qualidade. Quer uma boa opção de game retrô de corrida? Vá de 80's Overdrive.

No es ni mucho menos HORIZON CHASE TURBO,pero ni falta que le hace,es una pequeña delicía retro que rápidamente nos traslada a la época de los 80,como el "OUT RUN" de anfitrión,hará las delicías de los amantes del retro clásicos como este,buena sensación de velocidad,gráficos muy coloridos,música acorde a la atmósfera placentera del juego y esos paisajes playeros,boscosos acantilados...,preciosos. Los controles sencillos y precisos,eso si,se le debería añadir mas contenido al juego,solo hay 3 personajes y 3 coches a elegir,los escenarios son siempre los mismos en cualquier personaje que escojamos y su respectivo coche.,lo cual lo hace algo tedioso y una vez llegamos a la meta no hay mas desafíos..Un detalle muy curioso y que diferencia este juego de otros del mismo género es que los 3 personajes tienen un motivo personal para ganar la carrera,que nos van contando durante la mísma si tenemos activada la opción de diálogos,y aunque ganemos la carrera veremos algún final agridulce, a pesar de llegar a la meta gloriosos.... como la vida misma....
