"This is easily the best racing game I have played."
I think we all get annoyed by the music, but that isnt a problem, its only music, its not the end of the world.
The rest of the game easily makes up for it, its astonishing.
1st game I've played where you can get proper oversteer.
I am addicted to this. For all I went 3/4 round the track the first time with my corollas handbrake on.........it didnt put me off at all (especially once I got it to come off)
Beautiful..........just beautiful.....

Now, I love the Riddle School series....but I am annoyed with this one. Gameplay is great, puzzles are great......but there is one slight problem.
This game WILL NOT recognise my click-dragging. Even when it is supposed to do something, I can try 20-30 times and it still won't work. Possibly some code isnt mac-friendly, since I don't think this has been mentioned (if it has, my bad). As soon as I have to make the first combo-item, it starts. When I have to use it, it gets worse. Then when I have to use the rubber band...it is AWFUL. And don't even ASK me about the glasses or the toilet paper........it drives me to despair...
But, its still a great game. It just has a really annoying bug.
(And no, it isnt my crappy computer. The other 2 games work fine, as do most other click-drag games. Its the coding, or something really strange. Possibly aliens.)
7/10, 4/5.
Game=great
Bug= probably fixable, but BAD.
Author's Response:
That bug is actually the fix to a worse bug. There's no way I can fix it any more than I have. That bug only occurs on certain kinds of computers anyway (like Macs as an example) so at least it's better than it was, where dragging didn't work at all =(
Oh yeah, the other two games didn't have dragging. This is the only game in the series that does.

I love this game. Though, as well as what MarioKartFrantic said.......could you add in a training area or something? So that when you finish the game, you can load it up and just smash things?
I found a neat little trick with the trafficlight orb things. If you fly a bit below the top of the screen (or above the bottom), and wait for an orb to come either above (if your at the top) or below (if your at the bottom)........then IF you have the right level of manuvouring, you can bounce it a HUGE number of times against the edge of the screen. I managed a 23 hit combo on just one orb.
Great little game, could do with tweaking to remove the collision bug, could do with the loop problem fixing and it could do with being longer. But when you get down to it, this thing is GREAT.
MOAR VIOLENCE!!!
