Start of Day 5
After a couple of false starts on Sunday I finally settled on the idea which I hope I will actually submit. It is a simple racing game with a fairly common twist, which is that you have to change the gears yourself.
The basic game is working, and the engine torque mechanics are almost fully complete, but there's still a lot to do.
Currently the parts of the map that are not track are empty space, and if you fall into them you'll immediately lose. I'm thinking of changing this to sand in order to make the game a bit more forgiving.
Unortunately, I won't be able to get much development done at all today so hope I can finish it off tomorrow and Saturday.
