I am making a racing game called "The racers edge". I was wondering, what would the players rather have. A all car racing game, or a game with cars and lowriders? Wouldnt it be cool to race trucks in a game against cars?

design it so that you could plug in any vehicle. Race UFOs if you wanted to.

[ not a bad idea actually ]

Make some kind of vehicle file format and include a vehicle compiler which takes a mesh/bitmap/texture, etc and vehicle information, and make it so that players can create their own vehicles or edit existing ones.

To be honest, all car racing is boring. Include monster trucks, UFOs, 18 wheelers and even rocket-powered shopping trolleys for added fun and originality ( shopping trolley would have great acceleration but very poor handling ) Indeed, that would be awesome.

Stay Clausal,
