Dev Build 2: core movement

Place ramp blocks in front of car. It will lock on and drive off the ramp, which then you can use WASD to do cool tricks. Place more ramps while in the air and your car will "lock on" to the ramp, allowing you to chain tricks! Try to land on the rails for more sick moves. You can use SPACE to jump from the grindrails, just be sure to align yourself so you jump at the right angle!

Known bugs in this build:

  • can't spin sometimes when you go off ramp
  • ramp jumping doesn't work when close to rails when driving on the ground
  • sometimes lock on mode overshoots
