Global Race: Raging Thunder
Description
Global Race: Raging Thunder is a mobile arcade racing game. It plays similarly to Polarbit's original Raging Thunder game but consists of different tracks and different cars. The game is in full 3D and the player gets to control three different sport cars from a third-person perspective. The cars differ in speed, acceleration and handling. The game's tracks are based on real life locations including Paris, Moscow, San Francisco, Jakarta and Rio de Janeiro. The game can be played by up to four players in multiplayer over Bluetooth or against three AI opponents. It's also possible to compete in a time trial where the player just competes against the clock.
The game also features Gamelion's global racing community. This includes a track editor, tools for user generated content as well as web and mobile cross multiplayer.
The game was designed to showcase the capabilities of the Nokia E90 Communicator and was released as freeware by Nokia. Due to this it requires a S60 3rd Edition phone with a dedicated 3D graphics accelerator. Both vertical and horizontal modes are available and the game takes advantage of the phone's 800x360 pixels screen. The phone's tilt motion control is used for steering.
