Gameplay#2
While I was playing for the second time I didn’t feel as excited because I had already played it and I knew how the game went. When I first played the game I was excited but after I played it once again it was like ok I can continue and try to get a better score. The second time was a bit more competitive because I wanted to improve my score.
The game didn’t really have a story to it. All the characters had to do was race against each other. Although the game didn’t have a story line it was still fun to play. I liked going and trying different tracks. There were some that I really liked and others that I didn’t. The one track I didn’t like was the one with ice. I guess I didn’t like it because of the snowman that I always forgot about and could never avoid them in time.
Design
The game design elements that made this a good game were the obstacles that the track had. Like in the snow track they had snowmen that the player wasn’t suppose crash into. If the player did I would slow him or her down and they would lose the spot they had. In the beach track there were trees and crabs. In the highway track they had cars and other vehicles.
The levels in the game varied by 50cc being the lowest 100cc being the medium level and 150 being the highest. I only tried the 50cc since before today I hadn’t played the game. The game keeps the player interested because it is competitive and you want to be number one every time you race. And when the player is just racing by themselves they want to improve their time so that when they play with other opponents they have a better change at winning.
This game does foster social interaction with other players because the game is a multiplayer game. I believe it can have up to four players playing the same game. The players compete against each other for first place. I was playing by myself against the computer and I was making comments and I’m sure that the game would have been more interesting if I was playing with someone else and they were giving commentary too.
