Fast Dust Positives: + acceptable graphics + some good tracks + you drive from A to B + cool cars + handling is good enough + physics are mostly ok + good sense of speed + ok carieer mode + good for beginners Negatives: - too easy for everyone else, you loose the opponents almost immediately - no option to change the difficulty level - a lot of bugs, both small and more serious ones - partly glitchy graphics and physics - only 4(!) music tracks that you get tired of right away - the fog makes the framerate choppy - draw distance is not far enough - more variation would make the game better and more fun This game has a feeling of Flatout and Mad Max. But its not as fun or well done. Dont get me wrong, its an ok low budget arcade racer, and has its moments. But dont expect too much. Total Score: 6.5/10 Fun fact: Fast dust means solid jerk in my language (norwegian).12 found this helpful
[h1]Fun, fast paced, arcade racing game[/h1] Come with the right expectations, and I think you'll like this indie, single dev project. The game is not AAA and has a bunch of shortcomings, but the handling of the car and the physics are engaging enough to keep you playing. Sadly the AI is very bland and not really a challenge. [b]The good[/b] [list] [*] Good physics, cars feel heavy, asphalt or gravel feel different. [*] Nice car models, they really fit the setting. [*] Rain and snow and night races. [*] This dev loves to put destructables on the streets, so you'll be able to smash boxes, fences, gates, and other trash lying around. [*] Cars take damage that will persist trough races if not fixed. [*] [b]T U R B O[/b] [/list] [b]The unexpected[/b] The writing and setting are fairly interesting for a racing game. [b]The bland[/b] [list] [*] Soundscape sucks, the engines sound nice, but drifting will make your tires screech no mater if you're on gravel, dirt or asphalt. [*] Soundtrack sucks. I turned it off after 5 minutes and played something else on the bg, recommend you do the same. [*] Tracks are nice and well designed, challenging, but the "tileset" gets old really fast (and …4 found this helpful
I rather play FlatOut 3 than Fast Dust.2 found this helpful

It's a fun little racer. If you're a hardcore racing game nut like me, you might also enjoy it. Menus are very basic, not much juice going on, but the racing is fun. Difficulty level is easy, with the AI drivers spending a lot of their time crashing and getting left behind. It's fun to win and blasting through all 70 races in career mode should be fairly easy. Having 70 tracks is enough to keep me busy for a while, the physics are pretty good and the engine sounds are pretty good too. Generally, this game is alright. I think for a solo project it's pretty amazing and I appreciate all the work that's gone into it.1 found this helpful
