Hallo all, some days ago this game has been released in the APP Store (I worked on the sound and music). Apart from the fact that I worked on it, in my opinion it is a great racer in the style of the '80s, with a wonderful sense of speed... If you like it give it a go! Smiley

Yeah, ehm... I just asked because some companies are fond of ripping off other companies games on the App Store, but it doesn't matter because I now noticed that Final Freeway 2R is a sequel and the original one came out before 8-bit Rally.

I will probably get one of them, but I must be honest that neither game is putting me in any sort of rose tinted swoon... they feel a bit generic.

Nowadays there is a lot of tension on the App Store about rip-offs.. and for a good reason indeed.

FF2R simply wants to be an old school arcade racer. Yeah, it borrows from Out Run as well, but it's just how these racing games were made. And Out Run itself it's well.. everyday's driving if you've ever been in an LA freeway 8)

Being the programmer for the game, I can only think it's kick ass.. but it's just me.
The graphics is by MisBug, music by Mr. Armalyte himself.

Technically, I don't think that there is anything quite like it on the App Store or actually anywhere else.. because it takes quite a bit of dedication to actually reproduce roads like they were made in this kind of games.
So, it's all original code and art, and no cheap remake of anything in particular.. or so, I say 8)

There is no special game play and there isn't any story to follow.. this is simply about racing on the freeway, really.

Have fun ! 8)
