FurBalls Racing

A surprisingly fun platforming racing game with a really high skill ceiling. It might look basic but the movement feels great and the game is just fun to play. If you like weird little time trial games I'd highly recommend this on sale! P.S. Chirpy is the best character by far!

if youre considering buying this at all, just do it i stole this for 2 dollars and its easily worth the full 8 its one of those games that you can just tell its gonna be great the moment you see it, like the creators of this have played the few racing games i enjoy, and made a new game that takes things further than they have any right to go youre likely gonna pick up on small details that remind you of some of your favorite racers, niche and not-so-niche nice character select screen btw it has solid game mechanics that feel very polished and smooth, paired with deceptively simple level design thats really fun to fly through, cutting corners and lopping off entire sections of the map as you get comfortable with the physics its momentum-based, allowing for some crazy movement, you cling to walls, you can brake-drift on land and in midair fast falling, drop dashing, slingshoting yourself halfway across the map after a sharp turn quality shenanigans theres 16* characters, and each one feels unique theyre all balanced very well, having immediately apparent advantages and tradeoffs every character ive played has been fun, and each one has a chance to shine somewhere, making choosing …

Good fun. Clearly targeted at advanced players who like to practice and optimize, with little in the way of handholding or comeback mechanics. In fact, finishing the race grants you the privilege to freely interfere with the remaining players, which is pretty funny. Casual players can have just as much fun, but will find themselves getting lapped by the veterans. That said, I'd like to see a bit more polish, and some tweaks to the character balance and item (singular). Some of the advanced stages are a bit too cruel for me, but hardcore players may enjoy that type of challenge. Keep in mind the low player count means you'll likely be limited to playing with friends or bots. Maybe the community could make an event or schedule to coordinate play times? (furball fridays? :D)

This game is excellent. Well worth the purchase. Easy to learn, hard to master. Platforming is fun and you can easily make your own shortcuts. Game has a drop-dash like Sonic Mania so if you time a dash as you land then you get a quick burst of speed. Your drift button is also your boost, like in Kirby Air Ride, but you can also charge a drift boost in mid-air. Wall running makes the platforming even more interesting in many levels. There's a few levels I hate, including "The Void" which is perhaps the level I have least wanted to play again ever in a racing game. Some of the graphics make parts of some levels a little hard to see, but overall it does the job. I was only maybe once or twice confused as to where to go the first time playing a couple of courses; turns and directions are generally well signposted. Online works well with up to 16 people per race and you can collide with other players. The lobby system is a little barebones and confusing initially but you get used to it after 2 races. Shame that the items are all crap (both literally and figuratively). Would like to see a variety of items rather than just one that can be used in a couple of different ways. Really go…

it's got tech, it's like a marble roller I guess, so it's automatically fun and got schmoovement

Such a fun and short game lol. It takes some time to actually get used to how the controls function, but once you do - holy fox this is fun as hell. I'd love to see this get a sequel or more content with tracks down the line, this was amazing
