I hated Re-Volt as a child. Tracks too complicated, countdown too blunt and loud, cars too unstable (picked the wrong one maybe).
It is pretty nice, to see such a well polished game that can be run on Windows XP or old Linux machines. But still, there is lots of potential in RVGL. Just needs a couple of fixes, and I really hope, that the source code will be properly released one day.
It's quite a pity that the community all sits on Discord (didn't your credit card data got leaked recently?). If things would have been more open, I probably would have dig really deep. But nah, my time is over here, but it was fun.
