Better than it looks. Can be big fun in mp. Nice physics and tracks, pared with way to much weapons :D I´m very happy that the game has remote playtogether, but it would be realy killer if there was a proper online pvp. Overall pretty good game!

The game is great overall, but I would like to share some concerns and suggestions to improve the gameplay experience. LIGHT MODE One area where the game could be improved is the lighting and brightness. Players with low vision may find it challenging to play due to the frequent use of night races. This reduces the appeal of the game, as roads are often difficult to see. Introducing more daylight races, as seen in the original BBR, could greatly enhance the experience. The earlier version had excellent visuals, with clear roads and beautiful graphics that were more engaging. Using similar properties from BBR1 could significantly improve the game's overall aesthetic and accessibility. REPEATED ROADS The repetition of roads, including reversing them, can feel monotonous and uninspired. This gives the impression that there was insufficient effort to create new, unique tracks. Players appreciate variety and creativity in race tracks, and it would be exciting to see fresh and original road designs instead of mirrored or recycled tracks. COMPLEXITY IN RACE The addition of numerous effects during races makes gameplay feel unnecessarily complex and visually overwhelming. Many players prefer a simpler experience where they can focus on the race itself. For instance, effects triggered by powerups like Turbo can clutter the screen and detract from the fun. The original BBR struck a perfect balance with fewer distractions, which made it much more enjoyable and accessible. DEATH BAT POWER-UP The functionality of the Death Bat power-up could be refined. In BBR1, this power-up specifically targeted the leading player, which felt fair and strategic. However, in BBR2, the Death Bat harms other players indiscriminately, which seems unfair and frustrating. Restoring the original mechanics, where the Death Bat targets only the first player unless others are directly in its path, would bring balance and fairness to the game. GUARD/SHIELD POWER-UP The current implementation of the Guard/Shield power-up could use some adjustments. A rotating shield that breaks upon any hit feels ineffective and frustrating. In BBR1, the shield remained intact until its timer expired, regardless of the number of hits. Reintroducing this feature would make the shield more reliable and enjoyable to use, as it was in the original game. CAR MODELING STYLE Some car designs in BBR2 feel unappealing and unrealistic. For example, cars shaped like food items detract from the excitement and immersion of the game. Players would appreciate cars that resemble realistic vehicles, with appropriate tire designs that align with the racing theme. Simplifying and refining the car designs could greatly enhance player engagement and satisfaction. In conclusion, while BBR2 has a lot of potential, addressing these concerns would make the game even more enjoyable and appealing to a wider audience. Thank you for your hard work, and I hope this feedback helps in future updates!

Love it! Have hundreds of hours playing together with my son on his Steam account. You can play up to 8 people, if you have enough controllers. The only thing this game is lacking is a self-destruct button. Sometimes it takes it a while to realize you are in a hopeless situation (to destroy your car). And sometimes it kills you too quickly, even though objectively you are not in a hopeless situation. But other than that, this game is AMAIZNG to play with friends! Lots of fun and flexibility!

The reason i'm reviewing this with only 37 minutes is because I need it to be clear: this game is completely different from Beach Buggy Racing 2 on mobile. I love that game (I am a tier 13 with a few special character skins unlocked), and this game is not that game, but I do like how different this game is. Very fresh take on the BBR series, AND ON PC. I wish D&D Dream would do this with Head Boxing.
