A downloadable game for Windows and Linux

This is the first game I made by myself, and also my first attemp using Go programming language. It's based on the racing car minigame of the Brick Game 9999 in 1.


Controls

  • LEFT and RIGHT arrow keys to move car.
  • UP arrow and SPACE keys to activate boost.
  • SPACE and ENTER to start/continue.


Known Issues

  • Colors in Windows are slightly different as I use Linux and it seems that the terminal colors are not compatible. For this reason, I made a different version of colors in order to look a little bit better. Use Linux, it 's free :)


  • The boost is disabled when a different key is pressed than those provided for it. It stays active regardless of wheter you press and hold the SPACE key, for example, or just once until another one is pressed (after that you have to unpress and press the key again).


  • You have to press a key to update frame when toggling to maximize windows. It will centered automatically when resizing, too.



Source Code

This game uses a customized  version of JoelOtter/termloop engine in order to embed resources. The source code is avaliable here.

Hope you like it!

 No, I am Colombian. Pretty far, I think xD. Thank you anyway. 

Why did you think that?

I thought that this game console was exactly Russian. I'm sorry. But the game is really cool

*Changelogs*

For those of you that have already downloaded the game before, these are the changes:


v1.0

- A better score system, which now is based in distance.

- A more friendly boost velocity for a better control.
