Stressed out from simming? Well, how about some fun distraction? G-Boot Games has released a new version of their ThunderWheels off-road racing game. If you know Gene Rally or 80ies aracde-games, you will instantly dig the idea.
Gboot has taken the concept a lot further, equipping their game with an easy-to-use track editor, customizable physics, first and third person view and much more. The 0.4 version can be downloaded below, included 5 complete tracks and the editor to make your own.
Features:
- WYSIWYG track editor 99% feature ready (named GBEditor) with realtime terrain deformation, texture splatting and 12 brushes
- five complete circuits
- four car types based on: jeep willys, landrover defender, and two versions of our own designed monstertruck
- AI working
- top-down camera + third and first person camera
- surround sound and EAX trough OpenAL and it plays OGG files
- customizable physics, skins etc… all assets are visible and editable

To bad the G25 can’t be unlocked to allow infinite rotation like these top down 3rd person games did in the arcade. I used to love these games as a kid. It just isn’t the same without being able to spin the wheel like in the arcade though. :)
