Thunder Rally is an incredibly fun local PvP game that supports up to eight players, making it perfect for parties and gatherings.
The game features solid car physics, a variety of unique power-ups, and allows players to exit their vehicles to engage in chaotic combat, adding to the overall enjoyment.
The developers are responsive to player feedback and the game is well-polished, providing a satisfying experience even in its early access state.

The default control scheme is poorly designed, which can detract from the gameplay experience until it is fixed.
Currently, there is no online multiplayer mode, limiting the game's appeal for those without friends available for local play.
Some players have noted issues with game balance, particularly regarding the speed of mechs, which can lead to stale gameplay.
