Get Victory Heat Rally on Steam here! store.steampow...
A very special thanks to Playtonic for sending me a review code!
I've played a good handful of sprite scaling arcade racers that pay homage to the all-time classics, and while Victory Heat Rally goes for a similar approach, the game it pays tribute to, and its sense of style make it stand out from the crowd in a very, very good way!

WOW! Hello all 1K+ of you who gave this a watch! Thanks a lot for watching, especially to those who subscribed, hope you'll stick around for even more fun videos about racing games I enjoy! Glad to see so many of you enjoyed the video, hope you've also given Victory Heat Rally a shot and enjoyed playing it!

@JunohProductions День назад

I don't know why RU-vid recommended me this video but I'm wishlisting this game now. It looks so good.

@Mach5Mike День назад

Well I'm glad the algorithm led you here, thanks for watching! Hopefully the game won't be on your wishlist forever, because it's a lot of fun!

I'm really excited for this game. There can never be enough old school/arcade racers out there.

@VitorMach 21 час назад

So many good arcade rally games coming out recently!

Fantastic review, sent this video to my one buddy who holds track in crash team racing. Hell I’m buying this now too

@acecarrera1 4 дня назад

Power Drift meets Choro Q, even the track has similar rollercoaster feel.Would benefit from additional theme park or historic site (like Easter Island) tracks on its future DLC.

This game looks awesome! My kind of retro inspired nonsense for sure. Another fantastic video. Keep it up my friend

@Mach5Mike 3 дня назад

Thanks a lot as always! Keeping it up’s the goal!

Super Retro GP: Hold my octagonal tyre...

@mezzb День назад

Nice video! This looks like a hoot. I have been tossing this idea around for arcade cabinets. So many folks are going crazy trying to salvage rotting arcade cabinets from the 80s and 90s, and desperately keeping alive the limited the supply of arcade monitors (much much respect for the labor). Meanwhile, in the last 20 years so many AMAZING retro-inspired games have come out on modern gear. And if we're being honest, a lot of them play a lot better than their inspiration (which were designed as quarter-magnets). Imagine this in a stand-up cabinet with a wheel and pedals. Or streets of rage 4 on a 3-player cabinet with a robust 8 way stick and clicky-ass buttons.

@Mach5Mike День назад

You know, while I'm more of a sit down cab kind of person with arcade racers, given the style and type of games VHR is paying homage to, perhaps a stand-up cab would be the better fit!

@mezzb День назад

@@Mach5Mike oh a proper little sitdown would definitely be superior (but also way outside my skillset, especially the ones that go ham with feedback in the seat).

Nice review! I don't know why I didn't get your channel recommender sooner with how much i love the wii speedracer game and Aero GPX

@Mach5Mike 2 дня назад

Thanks a lot, glad the algorithm introduced me to you, I’ve got plenty of more games I want to cover, and hopefully some of them are ones you love as well!

Seems fun! I don't know if I have time to devote to a racer right now but I'll keep this in mind when I do.

If you haven’t played it yet and want more indie titles inspired by old school racing games, I’d highly recommend Parking Garage Rally Circuit. It’s an homage to Sega Saturn era rally games, where you (as the name implies) race around tracks built on parking garages around the world. It feels really authentic to the era it’s inspired by, and handles really well. Might even make a good subject for another video.

@Mach5Mike 8 часов назад

I have played Parking Garage Rally actually, not as much as I’d like because I was busy with this video, but I’d like to get back to it soon.

@ErdrickHero День назад

People keep saying 2.5D but there's no such thing as half a dimension. Either it's 2D, or it's 3D. 2.5D used to refer to games with 3D graphics but 2D gameplay. This includes sidescrollers such as Tombi or Klonoa. It also includes early first-person games like Wolfenstein (which, as far as game logic is concerned, is basically a top-down 2D twin-stick shooter - only with the graphical perspective of the main character's first person view). The DOOM Engine is fully 3D. Contrary to popular belief, the game actually moves objects in a 3D space. Just because it has vertical autoaim and lacks a jump button, does not mean it takes place on a singular 2-dimensional plane. Polygonal graphics are not what make a game 3D. Mechanics are.

@sophia_comicart 16 часов назад

Spotted this a few days ago. It looks amazing. Exactly what I’m looking for. Please say it’s coming to consoles.

@Mach5Mike 13 часов назад

No release date for it yet, but it is coming to the Switch.

@danielwilliams3161 4 часа назад

This on the wii or 3ds or psp 😊 Definitely getting this Thanks mate ❤

8:48 The flag girls are still bare-legged in their leotards instead of having thighhighs in their more recent artworks? Oh thank god... 🌬

@juststatedtheobvious9633 День назад

Looks lovely, and I'm happy it exists for those who want to play their driving games like a rhythm title. Myself, I wish indie developers would either make boost combos optional, or stop pretending it's a throwback to the 90's.

@j-morecoffeepls 22 часа назад

Looks good but too much tire smoke

@Binary_Omlet 22 часа назад

Been playing it since it was first announced; did they keep the promise to have the log roads in the option menu as a toggle?

@Mach5Mike 22 часа назад

It seems there isn't, at least not at launch. The devs seem to be responding to some feedback on Steam and bringing up things they'd like to potentially update, so maybe that toggle is one of those.

@VeganBytes День назад

Can you use steering wheel, like a logitech g29, or is it only for controller?

@Mach5Mike День назад

Controller only, no native wheel support, though drifting in this game with a wheel sounds like it'd be fun.

@zanychelly 4 дня назад

Is it releasing on consoles as well?

@retroman3960 4 дня назад

It was supposed to come out on Switch, but that version got delayed.

@barrymaslow8441 Час назад

There is NO sprite scaling going on here whatsoever...LoL!

@Mach5Mike 46 минут назад

Perhaps the background environment objects don't scale, but do the car sprites not scale as you get closer to them?

@accidentian 12 часов назад

Looks like a nice game, but the bossting effect is quite annoying. I actually got a bit nauseous by watching this video.

@stefankoopmans2200 День назад

It looks very cool, but that is NOT what you call pixel perfect.

@Mach5Mike День назад

Curious, what game would you define as such? Because like I mentioned in the video, out of similar sprite-based racers I've played, I'd put VHR above them, part of why I chose the title ;D EDIT: After reading another reply, I think I get what you were trying to say now, I just thought it was a fun play on words that worked for the kind of game this is.

@seudoquia3558 День назад

It's not a conversion, so it's pixel perfect, even if it was used as a pun.

@stefankoopmans2200 День назад

@@seudoquia3558 It's not a conversion? What does that have to do with it lol. It is not pixel perfect by definition. It looks very cool though, butI wish it actually was, it would look even better.

@stefankoopmans2200 День назад

@@Mach5Mike I do realize it was more like a pun and no technicality, It just cought my attention :) I have to deal a lot with this pixel-perfect stuff in pixelart and game development. But to answer your question, a lot of older games. DOS games, or SNES games. For instance Doom, Keen, Mario, etc. list goes on... The best fit for this title would be FZERO on SNES.
