Hey AprilSkies, you might already have seen it, but you got a write up on Rock Paper Shotgun:

Now just sit back and wait for the thousands of downloads to roll in...

HEy thanks Emont

I'm really surprised and happy at the same time.

This is great! And this answers my question of the week: Why so many people are downloading my Mags Game?

As Mandle noticed and told me, one of the funniest comment to the review is: It's like making Castle Wolfenstein 3D in Klik 'n' Play kinda level

Really cool polished and professional feel. Everything is clean and trippy. The gameplay is awful, but that's how it's meant to be in every Outrun clone. The genre demands it

-- in its category, this game is excellent!

Nice! Both looks and plays old school.

What stunning arcade game you made, Andrea!

Reminds me of the Bleifuss/ Screamer racing game series from Milano (~1996-99).

AprilSkies · Mon 23/03/2015 20:46:22

Ahahah! ^__^
Thanks AmÃ©lie!

I know some guys who worked in Milestone (formere "Graffiti") tho

And yeah! Screamer was a masterpiece! Even if I was inspired by Lotus and OutRun

Congratz you RED HOT OVERDEVELOPED DEVELOPER

Ghost · Tue 24/03/2015 15:00:08

A red hot congratulationdrive from me too. Well deserved, that game sure made me wonder just HOW you guys did it.

Seriously. How *did* you do it?

It's witchcraft, isn't it? You have half a broom, one honeycomb, and a woodruff leaf in your cellar and you're doing really mystic things with that.
I *knew* it.

Thanks Mandle, my red hot overtetser!

@Ghost: Hahaha, well I'd rather call it duct-tape coding style than witchcraft

No, Jonny. You are the testermandle.

selmiak · Thu 26/03/2015 17:01:12

absolutely deserved win for this code magic trickery. Of course this wouldn't have been possible without the green car and the mean driver behind it

AprilSkies · Thu 26/03/2015 17:37:58

Indeed!
Also, there are some useless awards, such as Best Game created with AGS, and no one thought of a Award for the Best Green German Car in a AGS game!
