The gameplay of this early-access game shows promise with its vehicle mechanics and potential for future content, but it is currently plagued by significant bugs and performance issues, such as low frame rates and limited features. While some players find it enjoyable and worth the price, many recommend waiting for further updates and improvements before purchasing, as the game lacks essential elements like multiplayer and a more polished experience. Overall, the gameplay is seen as a mixed bag, with a foundation that could lead to a great racing game if developed further.
- “So in conclusion, the actual gameplay is good and this game has a lot of potential, but there are so many bugs that make the game unplayable.”
- “For $5.99, it is a steal in my opinion, but it is still in its very early stages, with huge potential in gameplay, replayability, and even for the whole car racing and customizing market.”
- “This game is still very early, but you can tell the dev put a lot of time into the mechanics of the vehicle and all-around functionality.”
- “Until more is added and the mechanics are better and updated, don't buy this game.”
- “It's so early still that they have to work on mechanical updates for such a long period that they can't add any content.”
- “The car mechanics are strange; it seems if you do all the mods, there's enough power to blaze tires in 5th gear on flat going straight...? Maybe for 900hp, but not what you can do to these engines.”
stability

The game's stability remains a significant issue, with numerous bugs, glitches, and control mapping problems reported by users. Many players find the game unplayable due to frequent crashes, long loading times, and frustrating control settings, despite acknowledging its potential and improvements since release. Overall, while some users find humor in the glitches, the consensus is that the game is still too unstable for a satisfying experience.
- “This game has come a long way; it looks better than when it was released, with better sounds and a story mode. However, the controls are terrible on keyboard, and the controller settings are worse, making the game unplayable. Even when you try to remap the controls, the game fights you, telling you buttons are already in use without showing what they are bound to. All in all, after a year, this game is still too buggy and broken to try.”
- “Crashes all the time, takes too long to load, only 1 car, no FFB support for the T500RS wheel, controls mapping menu glitches every time you open it, and the dealership locks you in (can't exit or do anything).”
- “So for a beta, it's not very good. The menus are bland and annoying, the music is drilling and painful, the driving off the map mechanic is interesting, but the glitches are frustrating and make me consider getting a refund because I could use the money I spent on other, better games.”

- “No progression, no story; it was purely a test platform.”
- “All I was able to do was access sandbox mode; no accessible settings, can't do story, multiplayer, anything besides sandbox mode.”
- “There's no story and no online.”
