Super Power Racing

A fun game to pick up, even if you have a small amount of time to spare. The standard Race mode can get intense, as some opponents give you a run for your money, depending on the difficulty set. Power mode is like the regular Race mode, but now you and the opponents can fire missiles and bombs at each other. It gets chaotic really quickly and turns into an intense survival mode. Timebomb can get challenging on some tracks. You try to hit as many checkpoints before time timer hits 0 and your car blows up. Some tracks are easy or a nice challenge, but there are some tracks where you will need to get a good grasp of drift-boosting to Gold the event. The very last track was difficult, as you needed constant drift-boosting to barely clear the event. It was satisfying to clear the final event. I did find some silly bugs that are planned to get patched out, such as: - On Rookie difficulty, there was one instance where there was an opponent that was so quick, they lapped the field. After some time, the opponent went back to their intended difficulty. I haven't been able to replicate this, though. - Missing sounds (engine, announcer) - Pausing the game stops everyone (which is normal). However, when you unpause it, you maintain your speed, but all of the opponents lose most or even all of their speed... Making it easy to cheese the race... Unless if you are me and hit the "Restart" button while trying to cheese the race. - Similar to above, it is possible to move forward while Paused if you pause it at the exact time mid-jump. Still had fun playing this game. Looking forward to see where the dev takes this game.

This game has a lot of potential! Reminiscent of classic top-down racing games mixed with a bit of car combat and other silly little events. At the time of review the amount of content is a little limited, but there are plans for a lot more down the line.

finished tutorial and first two races. fast,fun music,works on steamdeck. i like that this isn't easy but i get better as i play. this is well worth the price

I was gifted this game by the dev to test/stream and I loved the game. We found some bugs but a new update is coming out tonight. I really liked the map night. There will be a driving school added to help people learn the mechanics of driving better... which I know I need, but once I got comfy with drifting I got way better in the game! I can't wait to unlock more cars and improve my racing skills! Thank you!

Super Power Racing is pure old-school joy from the moment you hit the start button. The pixel art is bursting with personality, the different tracks are really fun to play. I love the soundtrack which is catchy and just sticks in your head. It's a game that doesn't take itself seriously, highly recommend 🏎️

You're in the mid 90s. The room is dark but lit up by the flicker of your CRT TV. With a hot chocolate and a cozy blanket with the game's beeps and boops performing a symphony of nostalgic comfort. This is how it felt booting up Super Power Racing, a great callback to top down arcade racing games with even some spice of its own. From the fast speed, the crunchy sound design when you nail the boosts, the collisions, and the powerup sounds as well as the music it is very satisfying to successfully pull stuff off in this game. The mission variety of Season 1 has set a very promising foundation so far, bringing forth objectives like standard races, power up races and running over zombies as fast as you can within a time limit which is a fantastic first impression on what the future seasons may bring in fully committing to the fun arcade feel and I like the variety of vehicles like the Whippy the variety of playstyles and the unlocks are very satisfying. I'm very excited to see the future of where this game goes. Mechanically it brings a addictive balance of easy to pick up but hard to master, from the various types of vehicles like drift and draft to the strength of boosts and the difficulty of the Ai, I still keep coming back to try to better my laps, learn the racing lines, etc. Drift especially is a very high risk high reward type of vehicle and with this game having plenty of achievements and unlockables there is great incentive to try everything and there is a good amount to sink your teeth into, especially for the generous price and the dev is very passionate about updates, feedback and adding more content, and also finding/fixing the bugs. This game has a bright future ahead and racing game fans are gonna want to keep an eye on this one! I played this on Steam Deck both in Handheld and Docked and the game works wonderfully there also. I will be playing this often in my spare time.

Fun, cute, colorful top down racer that loosely reminds me of RC Pro AM (NES). The Good: smooth gameplay, fun/upbeat music, three difficulty modes, lots to unlock. Time Bomb mode is quite the spin on your standard time attack mode 😆 The Meh: There's no menu or the like that explains controls. It's easy to figure out. Controlling the car--best via analog stick--takes a moment to get used to, but once you get it, it's easy. The Not So Good: some of the computer controlled opponents in Power Mode cheat worse than the original Super Mario Kart, which makes for spicy gameplay 😆 Overall, a fun racing experience. Definitely looking forward to the final version! Great work, man!!!
