Hi all !
Please, forgive my bad English, i will do my best to present the project properly.
I am currently working on an Arcade Racing Game With Adobe Flex.
The work that you will see below represent approximatively 3 monthes of work. (After work and week end). It was really painful.
3D with Flex and Flash is quite limited because there is no 3D hardware accelerations.
So all the 3D that you can see on the screen is drawn every frames with standard calculation.
To give you an idea, i think that the final graphics can be close to a old PS1 game.
But the really strong point is the fact that you only need the Flash player in order to play the game ! (That is huge).
Windows, Mac, Linux, whatever the OS, You don’t need to download game on your computer, everything is online.
My goal is to provide as soon as possible a Car Editor and a Track Editor.
That way, people will be able to import their own cars/tracks models into the game in really simple way !
The possibilities are almost endless !
Without waiting more, here is the first demo !

This has been made with a real car physics.
You can accelerate, brake and change gears with the arrows.
The second demo is a simple car moving in a 3D environment.

You can move the camera with arrows and move the car with Z,Q,S,D (Sorry AZERTY keyboard for now…)
You can also change the camera view with 1,2,3.
Right now, i really need people who would like to contribute.
I especially need modelers, who can provide a low poly test track for the game.
That’s all for now !
Thank you for reading, and feel free to ask me any questions about the project !
See you !
