Island Racer ReviewHm - Version: 1.0.1, 10/5/2009 02:03PM PST

As much as I'd love to like it, it just feels too much like the Unity3D racing-game tutorial, physics wise. The random terrain feature is actually a very great idea and it works.

The graphics itself are, while they don't look bad, rather outdated, a few nice touches but from a 19.95 game I would expect more.

The driving itself is quite horrid, it's not arcade'ish or a proper simulation. The turning circle at low speeds doesn't match the alignment of the tires. The tires are screeching permanently when you're on the throttle.

The engine sound and revving is just the same sample pitched up, which sounds more annoying than anything.

I didn't even find a menu entry to quit the game, CMD+Q however worked.

I'm sorry, but "It's not finished." is about the best I can say about this game. It needs some serious work.
