McRally: Group B (2024) - Every PC Rally Game
14McRally: Group B by Warmears, 2024.
A promising little rally game from https://tomasi.itch.io/mcrallygroupb with a scuzzy VHS 1980s low-res feel, yet convincing enough physics. There's just one car and a (relatively long) stage to try here, as the developer describes is as a "vertical slice" of what a full game could be.
The location is the United Arab Emirates Rally at dusk, leading to a blinding sun effect in places! The co-driver instructions are only given in text-form, making it a bit of a challenge to read whilst driving.
Being a demo it's imperfect; you can roll and get stuck, sometimes the car leaves the start line at full pace after a restart, you can't easily exit after finishing the stage and the VHS effects and dazzling sun can be a bit much sometimes. Oh and the button on my Xbox 360 controller for handbrake also switched the headlights on-and-off :-)
There's also one part where the track goes under the sand, thankfully the developer pointed out where I should head, which you can see in this video!
But this is well worth a look, especially as it can be downloaded for free.
