Racer 10k

by Selim Arsever

This game is a tribute to the Lotus series developed by Magnetic Fields. To drive simply use up/down to accelerate/break and left/right to steer. The goal is to drive through the race in as little time as possible. Each time you start the game again the racer is generated randomly.

Reminds me a lot of Pole Position on the ol' 2600. Great game!

Wow, really impressive. Is there any chance we'll get to see uncompressed/unminified code? FOR LEARNING!

@Howard Yeend: Yes those are magical ghost cacti :D @Michal B.: Yes that page was the inspiration for game... the final implementation is more or less the one described under "Realistic Hills Using 3d-Projected Segments" @Andrew Petersen: I will release the code on my github account (http://github.com/onaluf) as soon as the contest is over. There will also be a nicer version of the sprites, I had to reduce the quality to fit in the 10k. And I try to add sound too since I've had a nice contribution of @bitography :)

One hell of a racing and web experience.

This is great. One thing, though, is that the times aren't directly comparable, because this runs at wildly different framerates depending on the speed of the computer, what browser you're using, and what size the browser window is. On my slower computer the fastest I can get (with no slowdowns along the way) is around 1:10. On my faster computer (with a small browser window) I can do about 32s because it's going so much faster.

Hi, as promised I've published the code on gitHub: http://github.com/onaluf/RacerJS. The first revision is exactly the one playable here but I will improved it in the days to come. @bloodrizer Yes I'm not sure why that is... I've been quite well rated in the past and during the last days I've had around 30 very bad rating?!? It doesn't really matters though as long as som people enjoys it I'm happy :D

What could you build with only 10 kilobytes of code?

That’s the concept behind this here 10K Apart contest, the love child of MIX Online and An Event Apart.
