Mining Rail

This game is one of THOSE games, the sort that's clearly someones pet project in Unity that eventually got fleshed out to the point where they felt confident enough to release it. I will say this, it's not a bad game at all nor a bad concept but it needs more fleshing out. For what it is this game is solid and playable while actually taking some skill which is somewhat rare these days. If you need something to spend your time on and don't mind some of the negative traits often associate with Unity you could certainly do a lot worse then Mining Rail. If I was to offer a piece of advice to the developer though I would say lean into the silliness of the concept. If taken further this game can't be serious, it just can't, the concept will not support it but if you doubled down on the rediculous nature of the game it could work out very well. Add in some more music options perhaps themed to the levels, more to do in addition to just dodging two or three obstacles, and find your own style/graphics setup outside of Unity standard and this simple game could become a hit. It's just the right mix of a simple concept with competent base gameplay to have real potenital.

Its a great idea and fun too worth £10 easy.I would Recommend this game

Good, Nice Smooth Graphics, A+A+A+

This game is the Dark Souls of leaning into turns. Features: - It's eurojank - You can summon Mr. Bones for a Wild Ride - AI minecart rider you can rear-end The Good: - It's eurojank - Simple concept that's fun and generally well-executed - Seems pretty well-optimized (Deck can run it at ~8-9W, 60 FPS) - You get to watch yourself fly off the track if you corner badly - You do a flip if you reach the end fast enough The Bad: - It's eurojank - No in-game gamma setting - World themes are a bit same-y - Upgrades are a bit of a grind and some (friction and brakes) might actually be downgrades, with no way to respec The Weird: - You may want to disable the vertical axis on the left stick in Steam Input so you don't accidentally brake too much and run out of momentum Verdict: More people need to play this.

This is a game I bought on sale and then tried a little. But it quickly disappeared from the radar. I brought it up again recently and now I really appreciate this it. It may be overly grindy and still a bit unfinished when it comes to presentation and menus and such. The feeling of whizzing down the mountainside in sharp turns is strangely mesmerizing and at the same time relatively demanding and with a good balance between risk and reward. Can not remember having played anything similar before, appreciates the originality, a slightly different racing game.

get's better over time. very smooth experience. can recommend it.
