The game features nice graphics and a good soundtrack, enhancing the overall experience.
It offers chaotic entertainment and a sense of freedom in gameplay, allowing players to explore their own racing style without excessive hand-holding.
The combat racing mechanics provide a unique twist, making it engaging for players who enjoy action-packed racing games.

The sense of speed is lacking, and the game often feels unbalanced due to aggressive AI and weapon mechanics.
The controls can be difficult to master, especially on keyboard, and the tutorial is inadequate, leading to confusion for new players.
The game feels rushed and lacks depth, with minimal character choices and a campaign that doesn't encourage actual racing skill.

The music in the game has received positive feedback, particularly highlighting the contributions of Polish tracker musician Traymuss, whose work enhances the overall soundtrack. Reviewers appreciate the techno-heavy sound, noting that it complements the game's fun graphics and gameplay, making it a recommended experience, especially when played on a TV with a controller. Overall, while some aspects of the game need polish, the music stands out as a strong point.
- “To their credit, they do actually have a real tracker musician from Poland, 'Traymuss', working on the OST, and it shows. His other work is even better, so no lies there.”
- “This is a fun game with good graphics and a really good soundtrack, very techno-heavy. I would suggest playing this on a TV with a controller for maximum enjoyment.”
- “I love the music too. It is really bringing back F-Zero GX vibes for me the more I play.”
- “The music and art direction is ok.”
- “I'm glad they removed the demo, that almost made me not buy it after playing it because it was terrible... anyway I am very glad I ended up buying it, it is very much improved since then and I am enjoying it very much... it does need some polish though to some of the graphics I think, mainly the reflections could be improved a bit. It looks great for the most part though and I would love if they eventually could add some DLC, more courses and other content too. It's definitely worth its price as it is though.. definitely I recommend.. it is really bringing back F-Zero GX vibes for me the more I play.. more new crazy courses please devs... love the music too.”
