PSP Racer


This is a day of firsts for French developer, benja32. Not only is this his first post at our forum in QJ, Lua-coded PSP Racer 0.01 Beta Version is also his first homebrew. I wrote quite a few racing homebrews like dalejrrocks' Cargame v0.2 and sousanator's Speed & Pass v.1, but this game has a bit of advantage when it comes to aesthetics. The sleek shiny car on the intro screen may not exactly be the car you're going to drive in the game, but it sure is nice to look at.

Currently, you can choose from seven lovely luxury cars to be your vehicle. The graphics on these are beautifully done. The details, highlights, even the gloss on the finish is on the right spot.

PSP Racer 001


Since this is the first release for this game, it's more of a showcase than an actual playable game. What you can do starts with picking a car and ends with driving it on a long strip of road. Although, one thing that I didn't like about the directional controls is that when you'd want to switch lanes, instead of just vertically going up or down the car faces that direction and you'd have to make another press on the directional buttons to keep it on he right track. I think in the long run it would make dodging the still non-existent "enemy" cars easier.

In his to-do list, benja32 listed three things: Add "enemy" cars, add music and add different decorations. I would also like to see a scoring and high-score system in there and a difficulty levels one of these days.

Overall I think that this is a very pretty game, that has potential if coded the right way. Download the game via the link below the article and head on to the forums to give your suggestions for benja32.

 » Why
Why do you post garbage like saying it is crap. This is the first version give it some time I bet you that it will be better. Stop flaming people. If you say it's crap he wil stop making it. I want to see this get further.In the future.

 » This is why
We post comments like this so that people will stop releasing homebrew in such an infantile stage of development. Seriously here folks, stop trying for instant' fame' by releasing things that aren't even in a real playable form.

Well a crappy psp site has stolen yet again the credit that pspupdates deserves, straight to the point that there picture still has watermarks and no source cited. It just goes to show who actually has information and who steals information inorder to have a site.
