SuperTrucks Offroad Racing

Not sure why this game gets so many bad reviews. Im in my 40s so I grew up on Super Off Road. This game is pretty darn close to it. It also has a long progression warm up, you don't start having any competition on the track or really getting your truck fast until you've put a solid hour into it. Then it gets really fun. For $5 it was a no brainer to pick up. I would of dropped $20 at the arcade for the 53 minutes I played this today.

I think what this game primarily lacks is the "Devil in the details". I bought the game after the 2.2 update and so comparing the new features to the reviews listed here prior to mine, I can get an idea of what's been improved. HOWEVER, I believe there are still core elements of the game that should be addressed in order for it to make more sales, here's my outline: PRO: * I think the engine of the game is alright; the steering needs tightening and perhaps some more collision consequences to the AI but otherwise it's OK. CON: (starting from the beginning of the game) * MENU/GUI: The Menu is antiquated for today's standards; the giant buttons, no controller support for the menu - feels like it was quickly added in once the game engine and tracks were made, because it's obligatory to have a menu system, etc. * UPGRADES VS LIVERY: so there are a 2 main currencies in the game: - (green) vehicle upgrades - (yellow) vehicle upgrades (mystery box style) and for decals/skins because the (yellow) currency can be used for vehicle upgrades, there is no practical benefit to using them for skins, plus the visual prettiness costs a lot, for what you potentially get in return for spending…

Works on Steam Deck thanks to the touchscreen, it helps navigate the menus. Much like the classic game it is fun. Controller support is there, but not all the way. A.i. could use some work (they get super fast towards the end of the race) I give it a 7/10. Glad to see that we still get updates. With time they should iron the wrinkles on this game.

I'm having a lot of fun playing this game so far. It's a pretty basic game, but everything I would want in the game is there pretty much.

No gamepad menu control is bad. Ramp bug can cause car to bounce around screen. Spend way to much time upgrading vehicle that don't seem to do much. Poor, half baked imitation of a classic game. Just tried it again, car touched the barrier, car starts summersaulting around track. Garbage!

Pros: Truck Racing Pick up and Play Cons: Not enough tracks(The same circle track and you repeat it more than 10 times...) Not enough diversity of track layouts(This is a truck race game why not enough jumps?) Random Physics glitches(I hit a small jump and glitch then somehow I am sideways and upside down?) Resetting the truck puts you flying in the air. (Put me on the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ground.) Needless clicks after races clicking on upgrade cards that you could just tell me instead of making me click...
