GAMEPLAY
The main goal of the game is to be the first at finish or to make all members of
opposing team drop out of the race. The racing competition takes place at the
streets of Moscow, connected into a ring by a magical tunnel. Tunnel doesn’t
allow racers to drive into sidewalks and close streets.
Controls are classic: forward ("W" by default), backward ("S" by default), left
("A" by default), right ("D" by default) and brakes ("Spacebar" by default).
The tactics is simple - to accelerate at the straight plots and use the brakes on
the turns. Without using the brakes it will be hard to pass a turn on high speed.
Player can also manage the camera during the gameplay. There are 3 camera
positions: far, close, on bumper. To switch camera position press "C" (defaul
key).
There is also a possibility to affect your closest opponents - use of magic abilities. Every character has his(her) own magic abilitiy (see Characters section).
Default key for magic ability is "Q".
Player also can use the help of mages: Zavulon (Day Watch team) and Geser
(Night Watch team). Zavulon can drop Night Watch team cars over, Geser cast
a wave that can slow Day Watch team cars down.
If the cars collide while racing they receive damage. There is an indicatior nearby racers icons, showing structure level of their cars. Agressive players may
find it very usefull - if the car lost it’s structure it stops and leaves the race.
Hit opponents with the front bumper and your damage will be greatly lesser than
your opponent’s. When all the opponents are "hunted down" this way player
automatically wins.
