Log entries
- I own this for some reason. It's all right, very similar to a smooth low-poly version of Outrun or Lotus Esprit Turbo Challenge. I won all the US. races. I was trying to record it, but the recording failed, possibly because I was uploading vast amounts of Control videos to YouTube at the same time.
- Malu started playing on her profile, and as soon as I signed in on a controller, I seamlessly joined her game in splitscreen. I don't carry any upgrades or unlocked cars with me, but instead we're working together in her game, so if I would win a race, it counts as won for her as well, which is pretty neat.
- Bjørk and Erik joined Malu and me for 4-player racing. I noted that this game runs at a stable 60 FPS in 4-player split-screen.
- Malu wanted to play more Horizon Chase. We're now playing the Brazil levels.
- More racing.
- We're now trying to get through all races we can with 3rd place or better, to unlock upgrades, get the upgrades, and if we run out of races, we go back and ace earlier levels which are now way easier due to the upgrades.
- Completed the game (World Tour). Malu and I played for hours today and got through the World Tour, including the 'Final Challenge' a Hawaii track that in classic video game fashion is more or less a 'lava level'. This game is very good, it plays like a faster and smoother arcade racer from the 1990s, the levels are well designed, and it has a satisfying upgrade mechanic and lots of fun cars to unlock. My favourite car was the Lancia Stratos-inspired 'DUSTDRIVER'. It handles well and doesn't use much fuel.
