Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious and boring, often exacerbated by frustrating physics that lead to uncontrollable spinning and resets. While it may serve as an interesting project, it fails to engage as a compelling gaming experience.
“For a school project it may be good, but as a game it's boring and tedious. The physics are whacky; you collide with objects and will most likely end up spinning uncontrollably. The more you spin, the faster you spin until it resets your car. So the only thing crazy about this game, besides the physics, are us that are playing it.”
