The graphics received mixed feedback, with users acknowledging potential but noting significant room for improvement. Many highlighted the need for polishing, particularly in map design and steering mechanics, while also expressing frustration with the screen dimming effect when approaching objects. Overall, there is optimism that enhancements could elevate the visual experience.
- “The graphics and maps could be a bit better as well.”
- “I will give it the thumbs up for now, only just though as it still needs a lot of polishing up to the graphics and steering needs work. I can see that it could be very good fun though if this work is put into it... and please get rid of the screen going dark when you get too close to anything, please devs.”
