Hey, it's been a while. I finished a few projects a very long time ago, so this is way past due. :-) Basically, you have different modes (1 unlockable mode) and you press the keys shown above to play on that particular mode right after starting the game. Oh yeah, it's very difficult even on easy mode, so good luck. :) CONTROLS Up Arrow - Accelerate Down Arrow - Reverse Left Arrow - Steer Left Right Arrow - Steer Right A - Boost (Only 1 Per Race) S - Drop Weapon (Only 1 per time) Z - Hop/Skid X - Respawn/Restart Lap (Used if Stuck) This may seem like a lot. You'll only use A once. X will almost never be used. S will only be used on Time Trial Mode. Speaking of Modes... There are three modes: Trophy Mode, Freeplay and Time Trial Mode. Trophy Mode includes Easy, Medium, and Hard (And A Secret One if You Are A Master). If you beat the car you are racing, you will get a trophy for that difficulty. Remember that your item will help a lot in the harder difficulties. If your car is not working out for you, you can always choose a different one with the spacebar. Time Trial mode is a little bit faster. You can practice using each vehicle.On adjustable mode, you may choose how hard your difficulty is. On multiplayer mode, you can race against your friend (if you have a fast computer). Your friend will use 9, i, o, and p to move (all the other keys were taken). TIPS AND TRICKS -Try hopping over gray areas that slow you down. -If you skid, and then go strait, your vehicle may glide and go a bit faster. -Use your boost wisely. If you are on Time Trial mode, you may want to cut through a lot of off-road area. Boosts can also avoid weapons. -Weapons are the mode important factor in racing. Use them to your advantage to stay ahead of the AI. -Choose a car based on how well you perform with it. Play on time trial and see which one lets you cross the finish line fastest. -Have fun. ;) To reset, hold down "r" for five seconds. ANd if you have any questions, please comment. It is very confusing, I know.
