-> (link to project) <-

For any that are interested, here is some history of this great game.

History of the Mini Racer Series

I designed this engine about a month before I released the first version of Mini Racer. It was simple and not very appealing to the eye.  wink  I thought that everyone would not like the basic, simple engine that I designed. A few days before I released the first version of Mini Racer, I had no project ideas, so I decided to try out this project engine. The programming was very simple and basic, and I created it so that it would be easy to add and customize the game later if I wanted to. I mentioned that my experimented engine was an eye sore, so my sprites were drawn very badly. Since the programming was pretty easy on this game I payed more attention to the design and look of the game, causing it to be as attractive as possible, and it worked. A couple days after the first release of Mini Racer I already had quite a few comments, and The-Whiz featured this project in the curator spot on Scratch's Home Page. Even after this project was featured, it gained lots of comments. I decided 100 comments = version 2. I quickly designed 4 new tracks and uploaded them on March 27, 2010. I found a few glitches and on April 3, 2010 the final of Mini Racer 2 debuted!

Remember, 150 or more comments = CUSTOM TRACK BUILDER. I'm working on it right now, but I won't post it until the 150 comment mark!  smile  Take a look at mini racer 2! The link is at the top.  wink

Hmph enjoy your fall - I get a lovely spring... without pans of new leaves.

Re: Mini Racer 2 (and history)

I can't even wait myself to see how Mini Racer will evolve in the future, but Mini Racer 3 is right around the corner. Can we make it to 150+ comments? That determines the date of Mini Racer 3's debut! The quicker you check out this project and comment with your score, suggestion, or thoughts, the quicker Mini Racer 3 will be available to the Scratch Community!  wink
