Slopecrashers Review (WatDo)
I do recommend this game... with the caveat that you understand this;
This game is the dark souls of cute animal racing games. It's actual unbalanced bullshit.
The ai racers rubberband like they're you're shadow. That is, if you can even get ahead of them.
You HAVE to spam manuals and spin jumps to get the small boosts in order to even keep up with the ai, let alone pass them. And God forbid if you make even a tiny mistake.
And if you hate the blue shell in mario? Well fuck you, because there are TWO blue shells in this game, for some reason. But they last longer than the blue shell in mario, because fuck you harder.
So the ai that is going to be in front of you half the race, is going to give you an enema as soon as you manage to get past them.
It's cute though, and the controls are fun. The game has good bones. It's a mix of mario kart (which is sorely lacking on pc) and ssx tricky (which is lacking in modern gaming). There's also a fantastic arcade mode that let's you set the race rules, including the number of *LAPS!!!* I imagine this game is also really fun with friends rather than ai.
Good base for a game, but it really needs some balancing. One and a half thumbs up.
