High Risc Racing
****************
DEMO AVAILABLE- send SAE and disc to Modus Software (address below).
Prepare for a white-knuckled ride of tough turns, severe skids and crunching
crashes as you enter the world of High Risc Racing. The action's fast,
furious and fatal as you race against up to 9 other competitors, over 40
levels and 20 tracks, to gain the ultimate prize of Champion. High Risc
Racing is a fast-action, plan-view car-racing game, designed by Modus
Software over one year to fully exploit the hardware capabilities of Acorn's
machines. High Risc Racing's RRP is £25.
High Risc Racing's superb scrolling and superior gameplay outshine any
similar game on the Acorn machines. Don't take our word for it. In an Acorn
Archimedes World feature in which all the current car games were reviewed
head-to-head, our product rated 91% for graphics, 90% for sound and an
incredible 92% for gameplay! Overall they awarded it 90% and said "High Risc
Racing is the game to be playing with its speed, accomplished graphics,
scrolling and game play". Archive magazine also praised the scrolling: "The
actual scrolling is superb, moving in every possible direction."
The best-selling Computer Shopper praised the graphics and sound:
"Sound-effects are realistic as you squeal around the track, leaving rubber
marks on the screen, avoiding pot-holes and oilslicks, ramming and
side-swiping other cars that get in your way."
Acorn User placed High Risc Racing "in the same room as StarFighter 3000",
and gave special mention to the "music and sound effects, which are excellent
and really add to the atmosphere of the game." In conclusion they said "Its
this combination of tactical planning and arcade-style racing action that
should make High Risc Racing a winner."
High Risc Racing utilises Acorn User's QTM package for both sound effects and
music playing.
Game features include:
• 32-way pixel-perfect scrolling
• Stunning 256 colour graphics
• Selection of excellent racing music
• Eight unique supercars • 40 progressive levels over 20 tracks
• Joystick/Joypad compatibility
• Sampled sound effects
• Save game option
• High Score table
• In-game garage to modify cars
• Intelligent computer cars • Oil slicks, potholes & skid marks
