Stunt GP

About Stunt GP

The radio-controlled car is played in third-person using the arrow keys. The cars are powered with a battery which slowly loses energy over time. Once the battery has run out of energy, the car goes slower and thus the player is severely handicapped. Several game mechanics interacts with the battery level. Near the finish line of each track lies a pit-stop, in which the player can refill the batteries. A speed boost is available by pressing the Control key but it depletes the battery much faster than usual. Stunts are performed while the player is in the air by pressing the Shift key and one of the arrow key. If the stunt is successful, some amount of energy will be restored.

There are 20 cars in the game, upon which only 6 are initially available. The others can be unlock by playing modes like Arcade, Time Trial and Championship. They are divided into 4 categories:

Wild Wheels are cars with a solid grip to the road. They are represented by heavy vehicles such as trucks or 4x4. Aero Blasters are vehicles with amazing agility. They spin the fastest while attempting aerials. Their design is futuristic. Speed Demons are cars with the strongest accelerations and top speed. Their lines are sharp and aerodynamic. Team Specials is a special category regrouping eccentric vehicles such as an open-wheel car or a forklift.
