BAFL: Brakes Are For Losers (Beta)

Game Description

BAFL: Brakes Are For Losers is exactly what it sounds like.

It’s a top-down fast racing game that’s very reminiscent of arcade racers like Indy Heat or RC Pro-Am.

You race around and do laps on a set course without brakes (as the title suggests). If you like old-school arcade races, this game is for you. You get to race through a wide variety of tracks (about a dozen) that are set in a few different popular locations. Choose from real life locations to wacky and cliche ones like the moon. The courses aren’t static either. They have their own hazards that you need to avoid.

Besides the track hazards, you also need to watch out for your opponents. BAFL has a bunch of powerups similar to Mario Kart where you can fire at, slow down, or knock your opponents out of commission. It’s a blast to play.

Your vehicle is always moving so you can’t stop. There aren’t any braking abilities or ways to slow down. You need to be able to dodge, weave, and race all at the same time. Each car also has its own abilities as well. They can even be upgraded with cash you win during the race, just like the arcade classics.

You can play locally with a full house or play offline in campaign mode. There’s even time trial and a perfect race mode. You can go against bots or yourself. Everything is tracked in a persistent leaderboard so you can compare your scores against others.

BAFL: Brakes Are For Losers is an awesome indie racing game that you need to check out. It’s the best take on the genre in quite some time.
